Revenue is generated through one-time new-home sales; pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by community, lot, and customization.

The company employs 101–250 people and is headquartered at 695 Trade Center Boulevard, Suite 200, Chesterfield, MO. It has remained under continuous family ownership for over 80 years with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, M&A activity, or public listing.
