Commitments and Contingencies

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Warranties

The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based on both current and historical home sales data and warranty costs incurred. The Company offers homeowners a comprehensive third party warranty on each home. Homes are generally covered by a ten year warranty for qualified and defined structural defects, one year for defects and products used, and two years for electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems. The Company accrues between $250 and $800 per home closed for future warranty claims, and evaluates the adequacy of the reserve annually. Warranty accruals are included within accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets.

Commitments

The Company has leases associated with office space in Georgia and Texas which are classified as operating leases. Rent expense under these leases are included in the selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Legal Matters

Lawsuits, claims and proceedings may be instituted or asserted against us in the normal course of business. The Company is also subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, employment practices and environmental protection. As a result, the Company may be subject to periodic examinations or inquiry by agencies administering these laws and regulations.

The Company records a reserve for potential legal claims and regulatory matters when they are probable of occurring and a potential loss is reasonably estimable. The Company accrues for these matters based on facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revises these estimates when necessary.

In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting outcomes of legal claims and related contingencies, the Company generally cannot predict their ultimate resolution, related timing or eventual loss. If evaluations indicate loss contingencies that could be material are not probable, but are reasonably possible, the Company will disclose their nature with an estimate of possible range of losses or a statement that such loss is not reasonably estimable. The Company has no litigation outstanding as of September 30, 2015. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company did not have any accruals for asserted or unasserted matters.
