Affordable Luxury Offerings Drive Growth

Toll Brothers mostly offers luxury homes and its communities are located in prosperous suburban areas with easy access to major cities. Luxury communities in desirable locations in both high-growth and high barrier-to-entry markets where its tremendous brand, broad range of home price points and unique build-to-order model lend it a competitive advantage. Luxury homes generally face limited competition.

The company continues to seek opportunities to expand its luxury brand to new product lines and price points in a bid to maintain leadership in the luxury segment. At the same time, the company has been strategically adding more affordable luxury communities in view of the current demographic trends, and expanding footprint and customer base. These communities are expected to be more capital-efficient.

Shares of Toll Brothers have gained 34.8% so far this year compared with the Zacks Building Products - Home Builders industry’s 21.3% growth. The upside is likely to continue, given robust demand owing to solid U.S. housing market fundamentals, less competition in the luxury new home market and buyout synergies.
