Meritage Homes (MTH) Stock
Sun Belt homebuilder building single family detached homes. Here's the price, business snapshot, and what's worth knowing about Meritage Homes in October 2026.
Meritage Homes Corporation (MTH) is a US-listed homebuilder specialising in single-family detached houses, often targeting entry-level and move-up buyers across fast-growing Sun Belt markets. The company generates revenue from land acquisition, home construction and the sale of completed homes, with additional margin from design options and upgrades. Meritage has emphasised energy-efficient building standards and prescriptive cost management to try to protect margins, but its performance remains cyclical and sensitive to mortgage rates, labour and materials costs, and local land supply. With a market cap around $5.08bn, investors should weigh potential upside from housing demand recovery against risks from interest-rate moves, inventory and consumer affordability.
