Consolidated inventory not owned30,330 11,809 
Total inventory$3,383,941 $3,091,862 
Single-family lots, land and land development costs include raw land that the Company has purchased to develop into lots, costs incurred to develop the raw land into lots, and lots for which development has been completed, but which have not yet been used to start construction of a home.
Homes under construction include homes that are in various stages of construction. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had 2,779 homes (with a carrying value of $680.6 million) and 2,502 homes (with a carrying value of $551.3 million), respectively, included in homes under construction that were not subject to a sales contract. This increase from prior year is primarily attributable to the Company’s inventory management decision to offer more affordable homes that are move-in ready in order for customers to benefit from selective sales incentives.
Model homes and furnishings include homes that are under construction or have been completed and are being used as sales models. The amount also includes the net book value of furnishings included in our model homes. Depreciation on model home furnishings is recorded using an accelerated method over the estimated useful life of the assets, which is typically three years.
The Company assesses inventory for recoverability on a quarterly basis. See Notes 1 and 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details relating to our procedures for evaluating our inventories for impairment.
Land purchase deposits include both refundable and non-refundable amounts paid to third party sellers relating to the purchase of land. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates the land option agreements relating to the land purchase deposits. The Company expenses any deposits and accumulated pre-acquisition costs relating to such agreements in the period when the Company makes the decision not to proceed with the purchase of land under an agreement.
