Sheryl Palmer retains her position as chief executive of Taylor Morrison. Palmer will direct the consolidation of Taylor Morrison’s portfolio—encompassing Esplanade, Yardly, and Taylor Morrison Home Funding—with Berkshire’s current homebuilding infrastructure.
The acquired homebuilder joins Berkshire Hathaway’s site-built construction division through integration with Clayton Properties Group. Clayton Properties represents a portfolio of 15 localized and regional homebuilding entities.
The unified organization completed approximately 23,000 site-built residential units throughout 2025. Operations now span 21 states, encompass 52 metropolitan markets, and manage over 700 residential communities.
This operational magnitude positions the merged entity as America’s fourth-largest homebuilding company. The organization addresses diverse market segments, from rental properties and first-time purchasers to upgrading homeowners and resort-style retirement communities.
Prior to this transaction, Berkshire maintained substantial housing sector investments. The conglomerate controls Clayton Homes, operates Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices—among America’s premier residential brokerage networks—and owns multiple construction materials manufacturers.
The investment portfolio also includes equity positions in additional homebuilders such as NVR.

Annual revenue reached $7.61 billion, while market capitalization approximated $6.67 billion before transaction finalization. The price-to-earnings multiple stood at 10.81, aligned with its five-year historical median.
