Berkshire Hathaway is acquiring Taylor Morrison Home Corp. for approximately $8.5 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2026.  

Taylor Morrison is a national community developer and homebuilder with over 350 communities across 21 markets in 12 states. It also serves homebuyers in the entry-level, move-up and resort-lifestyle segments under its Taylor Morrison and Esplanade brands, and develops rental communities under its Yardly brand. 

Taylor Morrison also provides financial services to its customers, including mortgage, title and escrow and homeowners’ insurance.   

Sheryl Palmer, Taylor Morrison’s chairman and CEO, said, “Joining Berkshire Hathaway is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to propel Taylor Morrison into its next and most exciting chapter, supported by Berkshire’s unmatched capital strength and long-term investment philosophy. This transaction is a testament to the value of Taylor Morrison’s talented team members, trusted brand, community-minded development approach and diversified portfolio.” 

Greg Abel, Berkshire Hathaway’s CEO, added, “Berkshire is acquiring a best-in-class national homebuilder, led by an exceptional team and backed by a trusted reputation for customer experience. We are excited to welcome Taylor Morrison into Berkshire’s portfolio, reflecting our long-standing commitment to housing, exemplified by Clayton Homes and our other building products businesses. Over time, we expect to unify our site-built homebuilding operations into a combined platform enabling us to deliver the dream of homeownership to more Americans.”
