CalAtlantic Group, Inc. was a home construction company based in Arlington, Virginia. In 2018, it was the 4th largest homebuilder in the United States by number of homes closed.[2] It was formed by the October 2015 merger of Standard Pacific Homes and Ryland Homes. In February 2018, the company was acquired by Lennar.[3]

History

Standard Pacific was incorporated in 1961 by Arthur Svendsen and Ronald Foell, and began construction of its first subdivision in 1965.[4] Operations expanded to include San Diego in 1969,[5] Texas in 1978,[6] Arizona in 1998, Colorado in 2000, and Florida in 2002.

On October 1, 2015, Standard Pacific Homes and Ryland Homes merged to form CalAtlantic.[1]

In 2016, Builder Magazine named CalAtlantic its builder of the year.[7]

In June 2017, the company acquired Oakpointe, LLC and entered the Seattle market.[8][9][10]

In February 2018, the company was acquired by Lennar.[11][12]
