WASHINGTON, D.C. (May 12, 2011) — BUILDER, the leading media brand for the home building industry, this week unveiled the BUILDER 100 (and Next 100) lists, its annual ranking of the largest home building companies in the country.

The top 100 home builders outperformed the overall market last year. The U.S. Census Bureau reported 323,000 hew home sales and 31,000 for-sale multifamily completions in 2010, a 14 percent decline, and the lowest numbers on record. The typical BUILDER 100 company closed 1,537 homes last year, a 5 percent decline over 2009’s closings. BUILDER 100 companies recorded an average $421 million in revenue, 2 percent less than in 2009.

Scott Felder Homes was named 139th largest home builder. "Congratulations to all of our employees for their hard work," said Steve Krasoff, President of Scott Felder Homes. "Their professionalism and dedication to hard work has successfully caused this company to grow. We are proud to be listed as the 139th largest builder in the country, this is a great accomplishment," Krasoff concluded.

The BUILDER 100 is compiled from data collected by BUILDER magazine via direct survey of the nation’s top builders. The BUILDER 100 (and the Next 100) list is comprised of both private and public builders and identifies the top home builders in America by annual closings, gross revenue, and rate of change year over year, as well as information about where and what they build.
