D.R. Horton concentrates roughly 92% of its revenue in homebuilding and channels approximately 71% of its mortgage originations through Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae, creating layered concentration risk that could amplify a housing-cycle downturn; revenue is already in modest decline, the stock trades within 1.3% of near-term resistance, and the risk/reward is unfavorable despite an undemanding forward valuation.

About D.R. Horton, Inc.
About D.R. Horton, Inc.
D.R. Horton closed 84,863 homes in fiscal 2025, generating consolidated revenues of $34.3 billion — 92% from homebuilding and the remainder from rental, lot development, and financial services. The company operates across 126 markets in 36 states and has been the largest US homebuilder by volume every year since 2002, having closed more than 1.2 million homes in its 47-year history.
Homebuilding revenue is transactional — paid at closing — with products spanning entry-level, move-up, active adult, and luxury price points from $250,000 to over $1,000,000. Approximately 84% of fiscal 2025 home sales revenue came from single-family detached homes, with attached homes comprising the remainder. Land and lots are acquired primarily through non-recourse purchase contracts, limiting capital at risk to earnest money deposits. DHI Mortgage provided financing for 81% of D.R. Horton homebuyers in fiscal 2025, originating or brokering 68,982 loans; substantially all are sold to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae-backed securities after origination.

Rental operations closed 3,460 single-family and 2,947 multi-family units in fiscal 2025.

DHI Mortgage's secondary market is heavily concentrated with government-sponsored entities: approximately 71% of mortgage loans originated in fiscal 2025 were sold to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae-backed securities, and 27% to one other major financial entity. The company's $1.4 billion committed mortgage repurchase facility — the primary warehouse line — matures May 6, 2026, making near-term renewal a live operational item. An 18% contract cancellation rate in fiscal 2025 signals ongoing buyer sensitivity to mortgage rate levels.
