Century Communities Triples Dallas-Fort Worth Footprint with Acquisition of HistoryMaker Homes
EmitenTrust.com Acquisition of HistoryMaker Homes, Texas' longest-standing production homebuilder, significantly expands Century Communities' market presence, community count, and lot pipeline in Dallas-Fort Worth, the nation's largest new home market
DALLAS, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Century Communities, Inc. (NYSE: CCS)—a top national homebuilder, industry leader in online home sales, and featured on America's Most Trustworthy Companies by Newsweek and U.S. News & World Report's Best Companies to Work For—today announced it has acquired substantially all of the assets of HMH Lifestyles, L.P., doing business as HistoryMaker Homes. Founded in 1949 in Fort Worth and headquartered in Grapevine, HistoryMaker Homes is Texas' longest-standing production homebuilder and builds exclusively in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The acquisition significantly deepens Century Communities' position in the market, tripling its community count and meaningfully expanding the Company's lot pipeline.
"HistoryMaker Homes gives us the scale, land position, and local talent to accelerate our growth in Dallas-Fort Worth, one of the largest housing markets in the country," said Rob Francescon, Chief Executive Officer of Century Communities.
"HistoryMaker has earned the trust of Texas homebuyers for more than 75 years, and its product and lot pipeline fit squarely with our strategy of building depth in our existing markets. We're proud to welcome the HistoryMaker team to the Century family, and we thank Nelson Mitchell for entrusting us with the next chapter of a company his family has built over five generations," said Jim Francescon, Executive Vice President of Century Communities.
"For five generations, my family has been proud to build quality new homes—supported by a best-in-class team—that Texas families could count on," said Nelson Mitchell, Chief Executive Officer of HistoryMaker Homes. "As we looked to the future, it was important to find a partner that shares our commitment to quality, integrity and the customer experience, and that would give our people room to grow. Century Communities is that partner. I'm confident our team, our homeowners, and our trade partners are in great hands, and I look forward to seeing the HistoryMaker legacy continue as part of Century."
Century Communities' existing Dallas-Fort Worth operations will combine with HistoryMaker Homes to form a single division based in Grapevine, with HistoryMaker division leadership and team members joining Century Communities. Construction, sales, and closings will continue as scheduled, and homebuyers under contract will continue working with their local HistoryMaker Homes team.
As part of the transaction, Century Communities will also maintain an ongoing land relationship with Jabez Development, HistoryMaker's sister land development company. Jabez will complete land development on select communities for Century, and the companies expect to pursue additional land opportunities together in Dallas-Fort Worth.
Vestra Advisors served as the exclusive financial advisor for HistoryMaker Homes.
