Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES When used in these notes, references to the “Company”, “Green Brick”, “we”, “us” or “our” refer to the combined company, which has been renamed Green Brick Partners, Inc. and its subsidiaries, resulting from the acquisition by BioFuel Energy Corp. and its then consolidated subsidiaries (“BioFuel”) of JBGL Builder Finance LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated companies (collectively, “Builder Finance”), and JBGL Capital Companies (“Capital”), a combined group of commonly managed limited liability companies and partnerships (collectively with Builder Finance, “JBGL”) by means of a reverse recapitalization transaction on October 27, 2014. Green Brick Partners, Inc. (formerly named BioFuel Energy Corp.) was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on April 11, 2006, to invest solely in BioFuel Energy, LLC, a limited liability company organized on January 25, 2006, to build and operate ethanol production facilities in the Midwestern United States. On November 22, 2013, the Company disposed of its ethanol plants and all related assets. Following the disposition of these production facilities, we were a public shell company with no substantial operations. On June 10, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive transaction agreement with the owners of JBGL, which provided that we would acquire JBGL for $275 million , payable in cash and shares of our common stock (the “Transaction”). JBGL is a real estate operator involved in the purchase and development of land for residential use, construction lending and home building operations. The Transaction was completed on October 27, 2014 (the “Transaction Date”). Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, we paid the $275 million purchase price with approximately $191.8 million in cash and the remainder in 11,108,500 shares of our common stock valued at approximately $7.49 per share. The cash portion of the purchase price was primarily funded from the proceeds of a $70.0 million rights offering conducted by the Company (the $70.0 million includes proceeds from purchases of shares of common stock by certain funds and accounts managed by Greenlight Capital, Inc. and its affiliates (“Greenlight”) and Third Point LLC and its affiliates (“Third Point”)) and $150.0 million of debt financing provided by Greenlight pursuant to a loan agreement, with the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Loan Agreement”). The $70.0 million rights offering included a registered offering by the Company of transferable rights to the public holders of its common stock, as of September 15, 2014 (the “Rights Offering”) to purchase additional shares of common stock. Each right permitted the holder to purchase, at a rights price ultimately equal to $5.00 per share of common stock, 2.2445 shares of common stock. 4,843,384 shares of common stock were purchased in the public Rights Offering for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $24.2 million . In addition to the Rights Offering, Greenlight and Third Point participated in a private rights offering to purchase additional shares of common stock pursuant to commitment letters. Pursuant to its commitment letter, Third Point agreed to participate in the private rights offering for its full basic subscription privilege in the Rights Offering and to purchase, simultaneously with the consummation of the Rights Offering to the public, all of the available shares not otherwise sold in the Rights Offering following the exercise of all other public holders’ basic subscription privileges. Pursuant to such commitment letters, Greenlight purchased 4,957,618 shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $24.8 million and Third Point purchased 4,198,998 shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $21.0 million . At the time the Transaction was completed, BioFuel was a non-operating public shell corporation with nominal operations and assets consisting of cash, deferred tax assets, and nominal other nonoperating assets. As a result of the Transaction the owners and management of JBGL gained effective operating control of the combined company. As of the Transaction Date, BioFuel did not meet the definition of a business for accounting purposes. Accordingly, for financial reporting purposes, the Transaction was deemed to be a capital transaction in substance and recorded as a reverse recapitalization of JBGL whereby JBGL is deemed to be the continuing, surviving entity for accounting purposes, but through reorganization, has deemed to have adopted the capital structure of BioFuel. Because the acquisition was considered a reverse recapitalization for accounting purposes, the combined historical financial statements of JBGL became our historical financial statements and from the completion of the acquisition on October 27, 2014, the financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. The assets and liabilities of BioFuel have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized in connection with the Transaction. As a result of the Transaction, Green Brick changed its business direction and is now in the real estate industry. We are a uniquely structured company that combines residential land development and homebuilding. We acquire and develop land, provide land and construction financing to our controlled builders and participate in the profits of our controlled builders. Our core markets are in the high growth U.S. metropolitan areas of Dallas, Texas and Atlanta, Georgia. We are engaged in all aspects of the homebuilding process, including land acquisition and development, entitlements, design, construction, marketing and sales and the creation of brand images at our residential neighborhoods and master planned communities. The consolidated financial statements set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q consist of JBGL and BioFuel Energy, LLC. The consolidated financial statements for all periods prior to the reverse recapitalization are the historical financial statements of JBGL, and have been retroactively restated to give effect to the Transaction. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments, of a normal, recurring nature, necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2015. Our operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods. The consolidated financial statements include the historic accounts of JBGL and are consolidated with Green Brick beginning October 27, 2014. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in which the Company directly or indirectly has an interest of more than 50 percent and/or is able to exercise control over the operations have been fully consolidated and noncontrolling interests are stated separately in the consolidated financial statements as required under the provisions of FASB ASC 810, Consolidations . Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, including the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Noncontrolling Interests We own 50% controlling interests in several builders. The financial statements of these builders are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. The noncontrolling interests attributable to the 50% minority interests not owned by us are included as part of noncontrolling interests on the consolidated balance sheets. Segment Information The Company’s operations are organized into two reportable segments: builder operations and land development. Builder operations consist of two operating segments: Texas and Georgia. In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting , in determining the most appropriate reportable segments, we considered similar economic and other characteristics, geography including product types, production processes, average selling prices, gross profits, suppliers, land acquisition results, and underlying demand and supply. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date , which delayed the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2018 . Early adoption is permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The standard permits the use of either either the full retrospective approach or the modified retrospective approach. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis , which amends the consolidation requirements in ASC 810, primarily related to limited partnerships and VIEs. The standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 . Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 . Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. This standard is to be applied on a retrospective basis and represents a change in accounting principle. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, Interest — Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements — Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting , which clarifies the treatment of debt issuance costs from line-of-credit arrangements after the adoption of ASU No. 2015-03. The standard clarifies that the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs related to a line-of-credit arrangement as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of such arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments , as part of its simplification initiative. Under the standard, adjustments to provisional amounts identified during the measurement period should be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. The portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts were recognized at the acquisition date should be presented separately, by line item, on the face of the income statement or disclosed in the notes. The standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 . The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |

Net Income Attributable to Green Brick Partners, Inc. Per Share | NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO GREEN BRICK PARTNERS, INC. PER SHARE Our restricted stock awards have the right to receive forfeitable dividends on an equal basis with common stock and therefore are not considered participating securities that must be included in the calculation of net income per share using the two-class method. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, adjusted for non-vested shares of restricted stock awards during each period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method and includes the effect of all dilutive securities, including stock options and restricted stock awards.

Equity [Abstract] | |
Reverse Recapitalization | REVERSE RECAPITALIZATION The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 100,000,000 shares with a $0.01 par value. On June 10, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive transaction agreement with the owners of JBGL, which provided that we would acquire JBGL for $275 million , payable in cash and shares of our common stock. The Transaction was completed on October 27, 2014. Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, we paid the $275 million purchase price with approximately $191.8 million in cash and the remainder in 11,108,500 shares of our common stock valued at approximately $7.49 per share. After giving effect to the Transaction, there were 31,346,084 shares of our common stock outstanding. Prior to the Transaction, we were a non-operating public shell company with nominal operations and assets consisting of cash, deferred tax assets, and nominal other nonoperating assets. For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse recapitalization and has been treated as a recapitalization of JBGL, the accounting acquirer. JBGL's financial statements became the financial statements of the registrant The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction. The historical financial consolidated statements of the Company are those of JBGL. From the date of the Transaction and subsequent, the consolidated financial statements include the results of the consolidated entities of the Company. For financial reporting purposes, the 11,108,500 shares issued by BioFuel in conjunction with the Transaction have been presented as outstanding for all periods prior to the Transaction. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to the earliest periods presented to reflect the transaction. The contributions from and distributions to equity holders during the historical periods presented were contributed from and distributed to equity holders whom were members of JBGL pre-Transaction. The following table summarizes the net identifiable liabilities of BioFuel retained on the Transaction Date (in thousands): Cash $ 31,916 Deferred tax assets 65,020 Deferred tax assets valuation allowance (1,161 ) Other assets 591 Debt (150,000 ) Other liabilities (312 ) Net liabilities acquired $ (53,946 ) BioFuel incurred acquisition costs of approximately $3.2 million included in additional paid-in-capital on our consolidated balance sheets for the year ended December 31, 2014 . Since the transaction was considered a reverse recapitalization, the presentation of pro-forma financial information was not required.

Debt | DEBT Term Loan Facility Term loan facility outstanding consists of the following (in thousands): September 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Term Loan Facility $ — $ 150,000 On October 27, 2014, in connection with the Transaction, the Company entered into the Loan Agreement, a guaranty and a pledge and security agreement with certain funds and accounts managed by Greenlight, our largest shareholder. Greenlight beneficially owns approximately 49.9% of the voting power of the Company. The Loan Agreement provided for a five year term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million which funded part of the Transaction (the “Term Loan Facility”). Certain subsidiaries of the Company guaranteed obligations under the Term Loan Facility pursuant to the guaranty. The Term Loan Facility bore interest at 9.0% per annum, payable quarterly, from October 27, 2014 through the first anniversary thereof and 10.0% per annum thereafter. The Company had a one-time right to elect to pay up to four consecutive quarters’ interest in kind. The Term Loan Facility was subject to mandatory prepayment with 100% of the net cash proceeds received from the incurrence of certain debt by the Company or the issuance of certain equity securities. Voluntary prepayments of the Term Loan Facility were permitted at any time. All prepayments made prior to October 27, 2016 were subject to a 1.0% prepayment premium. The Term Loan Facility was secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of our assets and substantially all of the assets, subject to certain exceptions, of each of the Company’s subsidiaries. The costs associated with the issuance of the Term Loan Facility of $0.4 million were deferred and are included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 . We amortized these debt issuance costs to interest expense over the term of the Term Loan Facility using the effective interest method. On July 1, 2015 we used approximately $154.9 million of the net proceeds from the Equity Offering, as defined in Note 6 , to repay all of the outstanding principal, interest and a prepayment premium under the Term Loan Facility. Upon repayment, the Term Loan Facility was terminated. In connection with the termination of the Term Loan Facility, we wrote-off the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.4 million , which is included in depreciation and amortization expense in our consolidated statement of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 . See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion on the Equity Offering.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest may not, at any time, be less than 4% per annum or more than the lesser amount of 18% and the highest maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Beginning on August 30, 2015 and continuing on the 30th day of each consecutive month thereafter until the revolving credit facility matures on July 30, 2017, the Company must pay interest on the unpaid principal amount. The entire unpaid principal balance and any accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable on the maturity date.

Stockholders' Equity | REVERSE RECAPITALIZATION The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 100,000,000 shares with a $0.01 par value. On June 10, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive transaction agreement with the owners of JBGL, which provided that we would acquire JBGL for $275 million , payable in cash and shares of our common stock. The Transaction was completed on October 27, 2014. Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, we paid the $275 million purchase price with approximately $191.8 million in cash and the remainder in 11,108,500 shares of our common stock valued at approximately $7.49 per share. After giving effect to the Transaction, there were 31,346,084 shares of our common stock outstanding. Prior to the Transaction, we were a non-operating public shell company with nominal operations and assets consisting of cash, deferred tax assets, and nominal other nonoperating assets. For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse recapitalization and has been treated as a recapitalization of JBGL, the accounting acquirer. JBGL's financial statements became the financial statements of the registrant The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction. The historical financial consolidated statements of the Company are those of JBGL. From the date of the Transaction and subsequent, the consolidated financial statements include the results of the consolidated entities of the Company. For financial reporting purposes, the 11,108,500 shares issued by BioFuel in conjunction with the Transaction have been presented as outstanding for all periods prior to the Transaction. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to the earliest periods presented to reflect the transaction.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
Share-Based Compensation | SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION We measure and account for share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “ Compensation - Stock Compensation ”. Share-based compensation expense associated with stock options with vesting contingent upon the achievement of service conditions is recognized on a straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures of unvested stock options, over the requisite service period the awards are expected to vest. We estimate the aggregate intrinsic value of stock options with vesting contingent upon the achievement of service conditions as of the date the award was granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of certain input variables, such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected award life. In April 2015, the Company granted 22,908 restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to certain non-employee Board of Directors, pursuant to the 2014 Equity Plan. The RSAs will become fully vested in April 2016 . The RSAs have a weighted average grant-date fair value of $8.73 share. The fair value of the outstanding shares of restricted stock awards will be recorded as share-based compensation expense over the vesting period. Share-Based Award Activity A summary of restricted stock awards activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows: Number of Shares (in thousands) Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share Nonvested, December 31, 2014 — $ — Granted 23 $ 8.73 Vested — $ — Forfeited — $ — Nonvested, September 30, 2015 23 $ 8.73 A summary of stock option activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows: Number of Shares (in thousands) Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Options outstanding, December 31, 2014 500 $ 7.49 Granted — — Exercised — — Forfeited — — Options outstanding, September 30, 2015 500 $ 7.49 9.63 $ 397 Options exercisable, September 30, 2015 — $ — — $ — A summary of our unvested stock options during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows: Number of Shares (in thousands) Weighted Average Per Share Grant Date Fair Value Unvested, December 31, 2014 500 $ 2.88 Granted — $ — Vested — $ — Forfeited — $ — Unvested, September 30, 2015 500 $ 2.88 Valuation of Share-Based Awards The weighted average per share grant date fair value of restricted stock awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $8.73 , determined based on the market price of our common stock on the date of grant, which approximates the intrinsic value. We utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model for estimating the grant date fair value of stock options. There were no stock options issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014 . Share-Based Compensation Expense Share-based compensation expense was $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 , respectively. There were no share-based awards issued prior to October 27, 2014. At September 30, 2015 , the estimated total remaining unamortized share-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards and stock options, net of forfeitures, was $1.3 million which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.7 years. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES We recorded an income tax provision of $1.9 million and $6.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 , respectively, as compared to $0.0 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 , respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was 26.0% and 25.2% , respectively, as compared to 0.0% and 1.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 , respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 is driven by the statutory tax rate benefit related to non-controlled earnings and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 is driven by state income taxes. In accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), the Company assesses the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance on an ongoing basis. In making this assessment, management considers all available positive and negative evidence and available income tax planning to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods. This assessment requires significant judgment and estimates involving current and deferred income taxes, tax attributes relating to the interpretation of various tax laws, historical bases of tax attributes associated with certain assets and limitations surrounding the realization of deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2015 , we had deferred tax assets of $83.4 million , which was net of a valuation allowance in the amount of $1.2 million relating to state loss carryforwards. Our deferred tax asset valuation allowance remained unchanged during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from December 31, 2014 . As of December 31, 2014 , we had $178.8 million of federal net operating loss carryforwards that will expire beginning with the year ending December 31, 2029 . We also have approximately $21.6 million of state net operating loss carryforwards that have varying dates of expiration. We believe it is more-likely-than-not that the state loss carryforwards will expire prior to their utilization. As a result, a valuation allowance in the amount of $21.6 million is recorded against the state loss carryforwards in full. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit. Our policy is to accrue interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits and include them in federal income tax expense. |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , the Company had related party transactions through the normal course of business. These transactions include the following: Through November 2014, the Company leased its Dallas, Texas headquarters on a month-to-month basis from family members of the Company's Chief Executive Officer. The Company terminated this lease during the fourth quarter of 2014. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 , the Company paid rent of $1,016 and $13,913 , respectively, under this agreement which is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income. Through the Transaction Date, the Company paid a quarterly management fee to an executive calculated at .375% of cumulative capital contributions of certain members of Builder Finance at the end of each quarter. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 , the Company incurred $0.4 million and $1.2 million , respectively, of expenses from this arrangement which are included as management fees in the consolidated statements of income. On October 27, 2014, in connection with the Transaction, the Company entered into the Loan Agreement, a guaranty and a pledge and security agreement with certain funds and accounts managed by Greenlight, our largest shareholder. Greenlight beneficially owns approximately 49.9% of the voting power of the Company. The Loan Agreement provided for a five year term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million which funded part of the Transaction. Certain subsidiaries of the Company guaranteed obligations under the Term Loan Facility pursuant to the guaranty. The Term Loan Facility bore interest at 9.0% per annum, payable quarterly, from October 27, 2014 through the first anniversary thereof and 10.0% per annum thereafter. On July 1, 2015 we used approximately $154.9 million of the net proceeds from an equity offering to repay all of the outstanding principal, interest and a prepayment premium under the Term Loan Facility. See Note 5 for further discussion of this repayment. In 2012, we formed Centre Living Homes, LLC (“Centre Living”), a builder that focuses on a limited number of homes and luxury townhomes each year in the Dallas, Texas market. Trevor Brickman, the son of Green Brick's Chief Executive Officer, is the President of Centre Living. Effective as of January 1, 2015, Centre Living's operating agreement was amended and restated to the same general terms as with our other builders, such that Green Brick's ownership interest in Centre Living is 50% and Trevor Brickman's ownership interest is 50% for future operations beginning January 1, 2015. Subsequent to this amendment, Green Brick has 51% voting control over the operations of Centre Living. As such, 100% of Centre Living's operations are included within our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 . The noncontrolling interest attributable to Centre Living was $0.3 million as of September 30, 2015 . |

Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company’s financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, investment in direct financing lease, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, customer and builder deposits, obligations related to land not owned under option agreements, borrowings on lines of credit, and notes payable. The Company estimates that due to the short term nature of underlying instruments or the proximity of the underlying transaction to the applicable reporting date that the fair value of all financial instruments does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values recorded in the consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . Per the fair value hierarchy, level 1 financial instruments include: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, earnest money deposits, and customer and builder deposits. All other instruments are deemed to be level 3. Fair Value of Nonfinancial Instruments Nonfinancial assets and liabilities include items such as inventory and long lived assets that are measured at cost unless the carrying value is determined to be not recoverable in which case the affected instrument is written down to fair value. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014 , the Company did not record any fair value adjustments to those financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. |

Commitments and Contingencies | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Warranties The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based on both current and historical home sales data and warranty costs incurred. The Company offers homeowners a comprehensive third party warranty on each home. Homes are generally covered by a ten year warranty for qualified and defined structural defects, one year for defects and products used, and two years for electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems. The Company accrues between $250 and $800 per home closed for future warranty claims, and evaluates the adequacy of the reserve annually. Warranty accruals are included within accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. Commitments The Company has leases associated with office space in Georgia and Texas which are classified as operating leases. Rent expense under these leases are included in the selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income. Legal Matters Lawsuits, claims and proceedings may be instituted or asserted against us in the normal course of business. The Company is also subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, employment practices and environmental protection. As a result, the Company may be subject to periodic examinations or inquiry by agencies administering these laws and regulations. The Company records a reserve for potential legal claims and regulatory matters when they are probable of occurring and a potential loss is reasonably estimable. The Company accrues for these matters based on facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revises these estimates when necessary. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting outcomes of legal claims and related contingencies, the Company generally cannot predict their ultimate resolution, related timing or eventual loss. If evaluations indicate loss contingencies that could be material are not probable, but are reasonably possible, the Company will disclose their nature with an estimate of possible range of losses or a statement that such loss is not reasonably estimable. The Company has no litigation outstanding as of September 30, 2015 . At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company did not have any accruals for asserted or unasserted matters. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments, of a normal, recurring nature, necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2015. Our operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods. The consolidated financial statements include the historic accounts of JBGL and are consolidated with Green Brick beginning October 27, 2014. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in which the Company directly or indirectly has an interest of more than 50 percent and/or is able to exercise control over the operations have been fully consolidated and noncontrolling interests are stated separately in the consolidated financial statements as required under the provisions of FASB ASC 810, Consolidations . |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, including the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Noncontrolling Interests | Noncontrolling Interests We own 50% controlling interests in several builders. The financial statements of these builders are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. The noncontrolling interests attributable to the 50% minority interests not owned by us are included as part of noncontrolling interests on the consolidated balance sheets. |
Segment Reporting | Segment Information The Company’s operations are organized into two reportable segments: builder operations and land development. Builder operations consist of two operating segments: Texas and Georgia. In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting , in determining the most appropriate reportable segments, we considered similar economic and other characteristics, geography including product types, production processes, average selling prices, gross profits, suppliers, land acquisition results, and underlying demand and supply. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date , which delayed the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2018 . Early adoption is permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The standard permits the use of either either the full retrospective approach or the modified retrospective approach. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis , which amends the consolidation requirements in ASC 810, primarily related to limited partnerships and VIEs. The standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 . Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 . Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. This standard is to be applied on a retrospective basis and represents a change in accounting principle. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, Interest — Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements — Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting , which clarifies the treatment of debt issuance costs from line-of-credit arrangements after the adoption of ASU No. 2015-03. The standard clarifies that the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs related to a line-of-credit arrangement as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of such arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments , as part of its simplification initiative. Under the standard, adjustments to provisional amounts identified during the measurement period should be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. The portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts were recognized at the acquisition date should be presented separately, by line item, on the face of the income statement or disclosed in the notes. The standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 . The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |
