    LGI Homes Initiates National Sales Event with Rate and Fee Buydowns

    Question

    LGI Homes Initiates National Sales Event with Rate and Fee Buydowns

    Direct answer

    LGI Homes announced the nationwide rollout of its 'Make Your Move' sales campaign across its entry-level LGI Homes communities and luxury Terrata Homes developments. The initiative targets rapid absorption of completed spec inventory by providing homebuyer concessions, including builder-subsidized mortgage rates, closing cost absorption, and interior fixture packages. The adoption of aggressive financing incentives reflects affordability headwinds confronting entry-level home buyers. While rate buydowns support transaction pace and cancellation rate stabilization, they directly reduce net realized selling prices and gross margins for residential construction operators.
