Description: PHM PulteGroup October 14, 2025
PulteGroup, Inc. (NYSE: PHM) is a U.S. homebuilder that acquires land, develops residential subdivisions, and constructs a range of housing types-including single-family homes, townhomes, condos, and duplexes-under brands such as Pulte Homes, Centex, Del Webb, DiVosta, John Wieland, and American West. In addition to construction, the firm offers mortgage-loan origination, sells loan-servicing rights, and provides title-insurance and closing services to homebuyers.
According to the company’s 2023 annual report, PulteGroup generated roughly **$13.5 billion in revenue**, delivered **≈30,000 homes** (a 4 % increase YoY), and reported a **net income of $1.2 billion**. The average selling price (ASP) of its homes rose to **about $400 k**, driven largely by higher-priced markets in the Sun Belt. As of Q3 2024, the firm’s **backlog stood near $5 billion**, indicating a pipeline of future deliveries that could sustain earnings if financing conditions remain favorable.
Key macro drivers for PulteGroup include **mortgage-rate volatility**, which directly affects buyer affordability; the **U.S. Housing Affordability Index**, currently below 100, suggesting many households are price-constrained; and **construction-labor shortages**, which have pushed material and wage costs up 5-7 % year-over-year. A 1 % rise in the 30-year Treasury yield historically correlates with a 0.5 % dip in home-sale volumes for large builders, a relationship Pulte must monitor closely. Conversely, strong **population inflows to the Sun Belt** and a **tight housing inventory** (national vacancy rate ≈1.2 %) provide tailwinds for pricing power.
