This prospectus supplement relates to the prospectus dated August 21, 2006 regarding to the offer to exchange Beazer Homes USA, Inc.’s (the “Company”) 8.125% Senior Notes due 2016 which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 for any and all outstanding 8.125% Senior Notes due 2016 which have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with, and may not be utilized without, the prospectus dated August 21, 2006.

 

On September 7, 2006, the Company announced that it is revising its outlook for fiscal 2006 diluted earnings per share to be in a range of $8.00 - $8.50, compared to its previous outlook of $9.25 - $9.75. The Company expects to close fewer homes in the fourth fiscal quarter than previously forecasted, as net sales through the two months ended August 31 were 49% below prior year levels and cancellations of existing contracts rose to 50% from 26% in the same period in the previous year. As compared to prior years, a higher percentage of home closings are being deferred or cancelled, immediately prior to closing in many cases, due to worsening buyer sentiment and the inability of buyers to sell their existing homes. This revised outlook also contemplates potential charges to exit non-strategic land positions currently under review.

 

Based on its existing backlog and the current state of demand, the Company presently estimates that it will deliver between 12,000 and 13,500 homes in fiscal 2007. The Company is reviewing its operating plan for fiscal 2007 in light of the ongoing deterioration in business conditions and is currently aligning its overhead structure and capital spending with this level of closings to maximize profitability and optimize capital efficiency during this period. The Company will provide its outlook for fiscal 2007 diluted earnings per share when it releases fourth quarter and fiscal 2006 financial results in early November.
