“Single-Family (4.0% of assets): Tri-Pointe Holdings own highly attractive land assets in supply constrained geographies. The company have taken advantage of the single-family housing boom by monetizing assets at attractive prices despite a challenged cost environment. Tri-Pointe’s exceptional asset quality coupled with insatiable demand for residential housing should allow them to grow intrinsic value despite higher costs and supply chain delays industrywide.”
