how would you respond to folks who are worried that this is becoming a new normal, that the buyer has become conditioned to expect very elevated level of incentives
And I'm curious if you've seen any changes in trends worth calling out in terms of perhaps maybe an increase in the use of arms or temp buydowns
I think in the past, you had talked about cash flow targeting a cash flow conversion of a about 100%. Could you talk about how that progression is going
Did the SG&A sorta surprise you? And was there anything else other than the fact that you had, you know, some lower closings
I just want to make sure that I remember that correctly. Is that kind of in line with what you are looking for still on a go-forward basis
the consolidated pretax still seemed a little lighter for us. And I was curious as to whether or not your outlook in 1Q is anticipating maybe just some seasonal lightness
Both of those seem to speak to maybe some changes on the balance sheet. And I wanted to talk to you about have you talk a little bit about what your longer-term goals are with respect to your balan...
You had pretty good or strong overhead control. I'd kinda beat you up about that last quarter a little bit because it was high. Was wondering, was there anything unusual in the quarter this time
Your SG&A is still low, but it's up a lot over the last couple of years and in 2Q specifically
sheer size isn't the primary metric that the company prioritizes anymore. And this also combined with your significant share repurchases
Can you give us a sense for how you are thinking about cash flow from operations relative to your combined share repurchases and dividends
what kind of net debt to cap do you think is a good target longer term for the company
Can you help us maybe draw a distinction between what you're seeing today versus what you saw in other previous times when buyers kind of went on strike
What are you assuming in terms of rental revenue – maybe sequentially or year-over-year?
how should we think about how you think about the volume that you need in any given year
how important is it for you to achieve a more sort of even flow of volume through the year
Are you saying that in 2026, your expectation is that you've got the volume, you've got the -- therefore, the platform to be able to harness margin improvement from lower incentives without necessa...
is it right to think that these investments and developments of the, for lack of a better phrase, [indiscernible] machine have now reached a point where you can have those systems play a more direc...
if we were to say that mortgage rates stay around 40 basis points or so lower than they were earlier in this year, then I'm guessing that the cost of a rate buydown should basically go down
do you see this planned slowdown in your sales production as maybe like a 1- to 2-quarter pause
could you talk a little bit about how you see the overall level of volume for -- on an annualized kind of basis? Has it changed in the last few months?
is the gap, is it one of know-how and time?
I was wondering if you could give us a sense for what the operating margin might be after corporate expense
how long is Lennar going to tolerate subpar margins before you begin to question if maybe the machine is built to
I was wondering if you could give us just an overall estimate of how much that piece, which will be transferred effectively will be for the year
if you could give us some sense for the relative importance of the cost savings initiatives from restructuring versus pricing
can you give us a sense for what your expectations are for existing home sales and just anything else relevant coming out of the housing market specifically in your outlook
if you did see an inflection upwards in existing home sales beyond your expectations, would you be expecting that you would see that more on the pricing side
There was a competitor who talked about a price increase going in Jan 1. I was wondering if you could sort of talk about how that might influence your outlook for pricing as we get into the new yea...
did you see what you might consider to be some element of prebuy in some of your channels
do you have any data or any research would suggest how Millennial paint consumption looks compared to Baby Boomers when they were at a similar age
I'm curious if you could talk about your ability to be dynamic with your pricing, as we may be heading in uncharted waters there
if you think that maybe what you're seeing in the consumer is maybe some stockpiling ahead of some tariffs, and maybe they're cherry-picking
this inventory timing, how much of an operating margin benefit you think you may have received in the quarter and whether or not this is going to be a headwind to 1Q results
are you expecting to lean more -- is that pretty much all plumbing -- or are you thinking that we should also expect something in the decorative architectural space
where do you see the BTO mix of, let us say, orders or maybe closings finally reaching your 60% level
I was wondering if you could talk about the free cash flow conversion and what you see as being offset to the net income this year
Wondering, could you give us some sense or, you know, where you would like to see that as you head into 2026
if I have your backlog turnover ratio going down, in order for you to hit your closings guide, it would assume that your order pace is going to be up year over year close to double digits
how much of these incentives at this point, would you classify or categorize as financial incentives, like closing costs, rate buydowns
How much of your active communities would you say are actually from, you know, kind of pre-COVID vintage land?
are you planning for spec homes to be up on a year-over-year basis as you head into next spring? Or are you willing to carry more owned land
there is a certain level of demand that is fairly persistent and robust. But if you try to exceed the volume above that amount
Does this still assume no reduction in homes under construction, or homes in progress? Because it looks like that actually would be an additional contributor
I'm curious if how or if you are preparing your divisions for any potential rates or maybe more likely just potential slowdowns
whether that trajectory over the year assumes any benefit at all from having more active adult communities by the end of the year
