Basis of Presentation [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	1. Basis of Presentation Century Communities, Inc. (which we refer to as “we,” “CCS,” or the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in the States of Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Washington. In many of our projects, in addition to building homes, we are responsible for the entitlement and development of the underlying land. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Wade Jurney Homes brands. Our Century Communities brand targets a wide range of buyer profiles including: first time, first and second time move up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade selections. Our Wade Jurney Homes brand targets first time homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and provides no option or upgrade selections. Our homebuilding operations are organized into the following five reportable segments: West, Mountain, Texas, Southeast, and Wade Jurney Homes. Additionally, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inspire Home Loans, Inc., Parkway Title, LLC, and IHL Home Insurance Agency, LLC, which provide mortgage, title and insurance services, respectively, to our home buyers have been identified as our Financial Services segment. On June 14, 2018, we acquired the remaining 50 % ownership interest in WJH, LLC (which we refer to as “WJH” or “Wade Jurney Homes”) for $ 37.5 million. On the acquisition date, WJH had operations in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (which we refer to as “GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (which we refer to as the “SEC”). In the o pinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 that was filed with the SEC on February 13, 2019. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest, and variable interest entities for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We currently do not have any variable interest entities in which we are deemed the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications In order to conform to current year presentation, mortgage loans held for investment and derivative assets of $ 1.0 million and $ 0.7 million, respectively, have been reclassified to prepaid expenses and other assets from mortgage loans held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Leases The Financial Accounting Standards Board (which we refer to as “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, Leases (which we refer to as “ASC 842”) which requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for most leases. ASC 842 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 and interim periods within the annual period. We adopted ASC 842 under a modified retrospective approach using the option to apply the transition provisions on the effective date January 1, 2019. The modified retrospective approach allows the Company to carry forward our historical lease classification, and to present historical periods under legacy lease accounting guidance. The Company’s leases primarily consist of leases for office space, and computer and office equipment where we are the lessee. ASC 842 includes several practical expedients which we elected upon adoption including to (a) not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (b) not reassess whether previously capitalized initial direct costs qualify for capitalization under ASC 842. Additionally, we elected to utilize hindsight when determining the lease term. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the establishment of a right of use asset of $ 17.7 million and a lease liability of $ 18.7 million on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASC 842 did not impact stockholders’ equity. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326).” The standard changes the accounting for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Credit losses which have historically been accounted for on an incurred loss basis will now be accounted for using an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses. This will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. Upon adoption, the standard will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We anticipate ASU 2016-13 will apply to certain of our loans held for investment and certain receivable balances. We do not anticipate this standard having a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40).” This standard aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The standard is effective for the Company January 1, 2020. Upon adoption, the Company has elected to apply the standard prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Reporting Segments [Abstract]
Reporting Segments	2. Reporting Segments Our homebuilding operations are engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 17 states. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Wade Jurney Homes brands. Our Century Communities brand is managed by geographic location, and each of our four geographic regions targets a wide range of buyer profiles including: first time, first and second time move up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade selections. Each of our four geographic regions is considered a separate operating segment. Our Wade Jurney Homes brand targets first time homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and provides no option or upgrade selections. Our Wade Jurney Homes brand currently has operations in 11 states and is managed separately from our four geographic regions. Accordingly, it is considered a separate operating segment. The management of our four geographic regions and Wade Jurney Homes reports to our chief operating decision makers (which we refer to as “CODMs”), the Co-Chief Executive Officers of our Company. The CODMs review the results of our operations, including total revenue and income before income tax expense to determine profitability and to allocate resources. Accordingly, we have presented our homebuilding operations as the following five reportable segments:  West (California and Washington)  Mountain (Colorado, Nevada and Utah)  Texas  Southeast (Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee)  Wade Jurney Homes (Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, and Texas) We have also identified our Financial Services operations, which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services to our homebuyers, as a sixth reportable segment. Our Corporate segment is a non-operating segment, as it serves to support our homebuilding, and to a lesser extent our financial services operations, through functions, such as our executive, finance, treasury, human resources, accounting and legal departments. The following table summarizes total revenue and income before income tax expense by segment (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Revenue: West $ 116,874 $ 105,949 $ 364,220 $ 354,087 Mountain 171,617 162,912 510,693 488,928 Texas 68,812 56,220 180,820 157,793 Southeast 118,610 141,458 356,236 360,653 Wade Jurney Homes 104,030 87,468 302,666 112,714 Financial Services 10,419 7,722 28,734 21,292 Corporate — — — — Total revenue $ 590,362 $ 561,729 $ 1,743,369 $ 1,495,467 Income (loss) before income tax expense: West $ 9,013 $ 7,478 $ 27,634 $ 29,494 Mountain 20,552 18,753 62,386 61,995 Texas 8,290 3,539 17,626 10,319 Southeast 7,079 10,401 17,467 24,106 Wade Jurney Homes 6,032 451 18,323 265 Financial Services 2,245 1,666 5,984 5,456 Corporate ( 18,371 ) ( 19,430 ) ( 70,753 ) ( 39,167 ) Total income before income tax expense $ 34,840 $ 22,858 $ 78,667 $ 92,468 The following table summarizes total assets by operating segment (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2019 2018 West $ 625,085 $ 502,381 Mountain 674,894 621,757 Texas 222,819 209,550 Southeast 455,289 448,681 Wade Jurney 287,923 204,925 Financial Services 144,682 146,710 Corporate 78,870 120,251 Total assets $ 2,489,562 $ 2,254,255 Corporate assets primarily include certain cash and cash equivalents, certain property and equipment, prepaid insurance, and deferred financing costs on our revolving line of credit.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combinations	3. Business Combinations WJH, LLC - Wade Jurney Homes On June 14, 2018, we acquired the remaining 50 % ownership interest in WJH for $ 37.5 million, whereby WJH became a 100 % owned subsidiary of the Company. We initially acquired a 50 % ownership interest in WJH in November 2016 as part of a joint venture, which was accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Our Wade Jurney Homes brand targets first time homebuyers in markets which are traditionally underserved by new homebuilders, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and provides no option or upgrade selections. The acquired assets primarily include homes under construction that are in various stages of completion and are geographically dispersed. We determined that the fair value of the gross assets acquired was not concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. As the acquired assets and processes have the ability to create outputs in the form of revenue from the sale of single-family residences, we concluded that the acquisition represents a business combination. We incurred $ 0.4 million in acquisition costs. Authoritative guidance on accounting for business combinations requires that an acquirer re-measure its previously held equity interest in the acquisition at its acquisition date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings. As such, we valued our previously held equity interest in WJH at June 14, 2018 at $ 35.6 million, which was inclusive of an estimated discount for lack of control of $ 1.9 million, and recognized a gain of $ 7.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The following table outlines the total consideration transferred, inclusive of cash acquired and the fair value of our previously held equity interest (in thousands): Cash consideration transferred for 50% ownership interest $ 37,500 Previously held equity interest acquisition date fair value 35,625 Net assets acquired $ 73,125 The following table summarizes our estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands): Cash and cash equivalents $ 9,464 Cash held in escrow 260 Accounts receivable 1,042 Inventories 156,828 Prepaid expenses and other assets 7,710 Amortizable intangible assets, net 3,600 Goodwill 3,317 $ 182,221 Accounts payable $ 12,516 Accrued expenses and other liabilities 2,349 Total senior notes and revolving line of credit 94,231 Total liabilities 109,096 Fair value of assets acquired $ 73,125 Acquired inventories consist primarily of work in process inventories. We estimated the fair value of acquired work in process inventories based upon the stage of production of each unit and a gross margin that we believe a market participant would require to complete the remaining development and requisite selling efforts. The stage of production, as of the acquisition date, ranged from recently started lots to fully completed single family residences. Amortizable intangible assets include acquired trade names and a non-compete agreement, which were estimated to have fair values of $ 3.3 million and $ 0.3 million, respectively, and are amortized over 10 years and 2 years, respectively. The Company determined that WJH’s carrying costs approximated fair value for all other acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Pro Forma Financial Information Pro forma revenue and income before tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 give effect to the results of the acquisition of WJH. The effect of the WJH acquisition is reflected as though the acquisition date was as of January 1, 2018. Unaudited pro forma income before tax expense adjusts the operating results of WJH to reflect the additional costs that would have been recorded assuming the fair value adjustments had been applied as of the beginning of the year preceding the year of the acquisition and excludes acquisition expense incurred related to the transactions.

Financial Services [Abstract]
Financial Services	5. Financial Services Our Financial Services are principally comprised of our mortgage lending operations, Inspire Home Loans, Inc. (which we refer to as “Inspire”). Inspire is a full-service mortgage lender and primarily originates mortgage loans for our homebuyers. Inspire sells substantially all of the loans it originates and their related servicing rights in the secondary mortgage market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. Inspire primarily finances these loans using its mortgage repurchase facilities. Mortgage loans in process for which interest rates were committed to borrowers totaled approximately $ 59.2 million and $ 26.2 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and carried a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.8 %, and 4.7 %, respectively. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, Inspire had mortgage loans held for sale with an aggregate fair value of $ 95.3 million and $ 112.4 million, respectively, and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $ 92.8 million and $ 108.0 million, respectively. Interest rate risks related to these obligations are mitigated by the preselling of loans to investors or through our interest rate hedging program. Mortgage loans held-for-sale, including the rights to service the mortgage loans, as well as the derivative instrument used to economically hedge our interest rate risk, which are typically forward commitments on mortgage backed securities, are carried at fair value and changes in fair value are reflected in financial services revenue on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Management believes carrying loans held-for-sale and the derivative instruments used to economically hedge them at fair value improves financial reporting by more accurately reflecting the underlying transaction. Refer to Note 12 – fair value disclosures for further information regarding our derivative instruments.

Warranties	8. Warranties Estimated future direct warranty costs are accrued and charged to cost of home sales revenues in the period when the related home sales revenues are recognized. Amounts accrued, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, are based upon historical experience rates. We subsequently assess the adequacy of our warranty accrual on a quarterly basis through a model that incorporates historical payment trends and adjust the amounts recorded if necessary. We decreased our warranty reserve by $ 0.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and during the same period in 2018. We decreased our warranty reserve by $ 0.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a $ 0.8 million decrease during the same period in 2018. These adjustments are included in cost of home sales revenues on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Debt	9. Debt Our outstanding debt obligations included the following as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2019 2018 6.750% senior notes, due May 2027 (1) $ 494,178 $ — 5.875% senior notes, due July 2025 (1) 395,944 395,415 6.875% senior notes, due May 2022 (1) — 380,567 Insurance premium notes and other financing obligations 6,150 8,795 Notes payable 896,272 784,777 Revolving line of credit, due April 2022 278,800 202,500 Mortgage repurchase facility 77,798 104,555 Total debt $ 1,252,870 $ 1,091,832 (1) The carrying value of senior notes reflects the impact of premiums, discounts, and issuance costs that are amortized to interest cost over the respective terms of the senior notes. Issuance of 6.750% Senior Notes Due 2027 In May 2019, the Company completed a private offering of $ 500.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.750 % Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) in reliance on Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2027 Notes were issued under the Indenture, dated as of May 23, 2019, among the Company, our subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (which we refer to as the “May 2019 Indenture,” as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time). The 2027 Notes were issued at 100% of their principal amount and we received net proceeds of $ 493.9 million. The 2027 Notes contain certain restrictive covenants on issuing future secured debt and other transactions. The aggregate principal balance of the 2027 Notes is due June 2027, with interest only payments due semi-annually in June and December of each year, beginning on December 1, 2019. In connection with this issuance, the Company deferred $ 6.1 million of issuance costs, which is presented in the notes payable line item of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Extinguishment of 6.875% Senior Notes Due 2022 During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company extinguished $ 385.0 million in outstanding principal of our 6.875 % Senior Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”). The extinguishment was the result of two separate transactions whereby a tender offer validly tendered $ 189.3 million of the 2022 Notes on March 23, 2019 and the remaining $ 195.7 million was redeemed in accordance with the Indenture agreement on June 10, 2019. The transaction resulted in a loss of $ 10.8 million, which is presented in loss on debt extinguishment in the consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Revolving Line of Credit We are party to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Texas Capital Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer, the lenders party thereto and certain of our subsidiaries, which, as amended most recently on February 12, 2019, provides us with a revolving line of credit of up to $ 640.0 million, and unless terminated earlier, will mature on April 30, 2022 . Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, we may request a twelve-month extension of the maturity date. Our obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (including limitations on our ability to grant liens, incur additional debt, pay dividends, redeem our common stock, make certain investments and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions), as well as customary events of default. These covenants are measured as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and are reported to the lenders quarterly. Borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate equal to the adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus an applicable margin between 2.60 % and 3.10 % per annum, or, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, a base rate plus an applicable margin between 1.60 % and 2.10 % per annum. As of September 30, 2019, we had $ 278.8 million outstanding under the credit facility and were in compliance with all covenants. Mortgage Repurchase Facilities – Financial Services On May 4, 2018 and September 14, 2018, Inspire entered into mortgage warehouse facilities, with Comerica Bank, and J.P. Morgan, respectively. The mortgage warehouse lines of credit (which we refer to as the “repurchase facilities”) provide Inspire with uncommitted repurchase facilities of up to an aggregate of $ 140 million, secured by the mortgage loans financed thereunder. Amounts outstanding under the repurchase facilities are not guaranteed by us or any of our subsidiaries and the agreements contain various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Inspire that are customary for arrangements of this type. As of September 30, 2019, we had $ 77.8 million outstanding under these repurchase facilities and were in compliance with all covenants thereunder. No assurance can be provided, however, that we will remain in compliance with the covenants or have continued access to these facilities or substitute or replacement facilities in an amount sufficient to fund our mortgage lending business. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we incurred interest expense on the repurchase facilities of $ 0.6 million and $ 0.4 million, respectively, which are included in financial services costs on our condensed consolidated statements of operations . During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we incurred interest expense on the repurchase facilities of $ 2.1 million and $ 0.8 million, respectively.

Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes	11 . Income Taxes At the end of each interim period we are required to estimate our annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year, and to use that rate to provide for income taxes for the current year-to-date reporting period. Our 2019 estimated annual effective tax rate of 27.9 % is driven by our blended federal and state statutory rate of 25.2 %, and certain other permanent differences between GAAP and tax which increased our rate by 2.7 %. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, our estimated annual rate of 27.9 % was impacted by discrete items which had a net impact of decreasing our rate by 5.5 %, including federal energy tax credits claimed in the current period related to homes closed in prior years. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 our estimated annual rate of 27.9 % was impacted by discrete items which had a net impact of decreasing our rate by 3.7 %, including federal energy tax credits and excess tax benefits for vested stock-based compensation. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded income tax expense of $ 7.8 million and $ 5.8 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded income tax expense of $ 19.0 million and $ 22.2 million, respectively.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Disclosures	12. Fair Value Disclosures Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement , defines fair value as the price that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and requires assets and liabilities carried at fair value to be classified and disclosed in the following three categories: Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are inactive; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets at measurement date. Level 3 — Valuations derived from techniques where one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable in active markets at measurement date. The following table presents carrying values and estimated fair values of financial instruments (in thousands): September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Hierarchy Carrying Fair Value Carrying Fair Value Secured notes receivable (1) Level 2 $ 2,632 $ 2,577 $ 4,947 $ 4,830 Mortgage loans held for sale (2) Level 2 $ 95,321 $ 95,321 $ 112,394 $ 112,394 Derivative assets (3) Level 2 $ 1,593 $ 1,593 $ 726 $ 726 6.750% senior notes (4) (5) Level 2 $ 494,178 $ 535,550 $ — $ — 6.875% senior notes (4) (5) Level 2 $ — $ — $ 380,567 $ 372,488 5.875 % senior notes (4) (5) Level 2 $ 395,944 $ 413,000 $ 395,415 $ 356,000 3.278% insurance premium notes (6) Level 2 $ 6,150 $ 6,150 $ 6,475 $ 6,475 Revolving line of credit (6) Level 3 $ 278,800 $ 278,800 $ 202,500 $ 202,500 Other financing obligation (6) Level 2 $ — $ — $ 2,320 $ 2,320 Mortgage repurchase facilities (6) Level 2 $ 77,798 $ 77,798 $ 104,555 $ 104,555 (1) Estimated fair value of the secured notes receivable was based on cash flow models discounted at market interest rates which considered the underlying risks of the note. (2) The mortgage loans held for sale are carried at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices for committed mortgage loans. (3) Derivative instruments are carried at fair value and based on market prices for similar instruments. Changes in fair value are reflected in financial services revenue on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had immaterial amounts of derivative liabilities which are presented within accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 5 – financial services for further information regarding our derivative instruments. (4) Estimated fair value of the senior notes is based on recent trading activity in inactive markets. (5) Carrying amounts include any associated unamortized deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts. As of September 30, 2019, these amounts totaled $ 5.8 million and $ 4.1 million for the 6.750% senior notes and 5.875% senior notes, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, these amounts totaled $ 4.9 million and $ 4.6 million for the 6.875% senior notes and 5.875% senior notes, respectively. (6) Carrying amount approximates fair value due to short-term nature and interest rate terms. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. Non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value when acquired in a business combination. Long-lived assets determined to be impaired are measured at fair value.

Stock-Based Compensation [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	13. Stock-Based Compensation During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we granted performance share units (which we refer to as “PSUs”) covering up to 0.3 million shares of common stock, assuming maximum level of performance, with a grant date fair value of $ 22.01 per share that are subject to both service and performance vesting conditions. The quantity of shares that will vest under the PSUs ranges from 0 % to 250 % of a targeted number of shares for each participant and will be determined based on an achievement of a three year pre-tax income performance goal. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we also granted restricted stock units (which we refer to as “RSUs”) covering 0.6 million shares of common stock with a grant date fair value of $ 23.85 per share that vest over a three year period. A summary of our outstanding RSUs and PSUs, assuming maximum level of performance, are as follows (in thousands, except years): As of September 30, 2019 Unvested units 1,225 Unrecognized compensation cost $ 16,421 Period to recognize compensation cost 1.6 years During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 3.9 million and $ 3.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 11.4 million and $ 10.1 million, respectively.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were 31.2 million and 30.2 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding, respectively. On May 10, 2017, our stockholders approved the adoption of the Century Communities, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (which we refer to as our “2017 Incentive Plan”), which replaced our First Amended & Restated 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan. We had reserved a total of 1.8 million shares of our common stock for issuance under our First Amended & Restated 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, of which approximately 0.6 million shares rolled over into the 2017 Incentive Plan when it became effective. On May 8, 2019, our stockholders approved an amended and restated 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which increased the number of shares of our common stock authorized for issuance under the 2017 Incentive Plan by an additional 1.631 million shares. We issued 0.3 million shares of our common stock related to the vesting of RSUs during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 . On July 3, 2018, we entered into a Distribution Agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (the “Distribution Agreement”), as sales agents pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 100.0 million from time to time through any of the sales agents party thereto in “at-the-market” offerings. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we sold and issued an aggregate of 0.8 million shares and 0.9 million shares, respectively, of our common stock under the Distribution Agreement, which provided gross proceeds of $ 23.7 million and $ 26.5 million, respectively, and in connection with such sales, paid total offering costs of $ 0.6 million and $ 0.7 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we sold and issued an aggregate of 0.6 million and 1.1 million shares of our common stock under the Second and Third Distribution Agreements, which provided gross proceeds of $ 17.4 million and $ 32.4 million, respectively, and, in connection with such sales, paid total offering costs of $ 0.5 million and $ 1.1 million respectively . The Distribution Agreement will remain in full force and effect until terminated by either party pursuant to the terms of the agreement or such date that the maximum offering amount has been sold in accordance with the terms of the agreement . This Distribution Agreement had $ 56.1 million remaining as of September 30, 2019.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	15. Earnings Per Share We use the two-class method of calculating EPS, where applicable, as our previously issued non-vested restricted stock awards had non-forfeitable rights to dividends and, accordingly, represent a participating security. The two-class method is an earnings allocation method under which EPS is calculated for each class of common stock and participating security considering both dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings as if all such earnings had been distributed during the period. We use the treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive effect of our RSUs and PSUs as these awards do not have participating rights. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands, except share and per share information): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Numerator Net income $ 27,024 $ 17,048 $ 59,636 $ 70,261 Less: Undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities — — — ( 58 ) Net income allocable to common stockholders $ 27,024 $ 17,048 $ 59,636 $ 70,203 Denominator Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic 30,587,487 30,232,376 30,378,860 29,885,858 Dilutive effect of restricted stock units 318,748 322,505 262,334 303,200 Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted 30,906,235 30,554,881 30,641,194 30,189,058 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.88 $ 0.56 $ 1.96 $ 2.35 Diluted $ 0.87 $ 0.56 $ 1.95 $ 2.33 Stock-based awards are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS in the event they are subject to unsatisfied performance conditions or are antidilutive. We excluded 0.6 million common unit equivalents from diluted earnings per share during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 related to the PSUs for which performance conditions remain unsatisfied. We excluded 0.3 million common unit equivalents from diluted earnings per share during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 related to the PSUs granted during the periods.

Commitments and Contingencies	16. Commitments and Contingencies Letters of Credit and Performance Bonds In the normal course of business, we post letters of credit and performance bonds related to our land development performance obligations with local municipalities. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $ 347.6 million and $ 289.8 million, respectively, in letters of credit and performance bonds issued and outstanding. Litigation We are subject to claims and lawsuits that arise primarily in the ordinary course of business, which consist primarily of construction defect claims. It is the opinion of our management that if the claims have merit, parties other than the Company would be, at least in part, liable for the claims, and the eventual outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. When we believe that a loss is probable and estimable, we record a charge to selling, general, and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for our estimated loss. Under various insurance policies, we have the ability to recoup costs in excess of applicable self-insured retentions. Estimates of such amounts are recorded in other assets when recovery is probable. As of December 31, 2018, substantially all of the amounts reflected in Insurance receivable and other were related to construction claims, which were settled and amounts collected under the applicable insurance policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any claims and lawsuits will have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	17. Leases Under ASC 842, the Company determines if a contract is or contains a lease at inception or modification of a contract. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset means the lessee has both (a) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and (b) the right to direct the use of the asset. We primarily enter into operating leases for the right to use office space, and computer and office equipment, which have lease terms that generally range from 1 to 7 years and often include one or more options to renew. We include renewal terms in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option. For leases entered into after January 1, 2019, we establish a right of use asset and a lease liability at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of future minimum lease payments. As the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of future minimum payments. Our incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at the commencement date. We account for the lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $ 16.8 million and $ 17.4 million recognized as a right of use asset and lease liability, respectively, which are presented on the consolidated balance sheet within prepaid expenses and other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively. The Company has entered into various short-term operating leases, primarily for marketing billboards, with an initial term of twelve months or less. These leases are not recorded on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Supplemental Guarantor Information [Abstract]
Supplemental Guarantor Information	18. Supplemental Guarantor Information Our 5.875 % senior notes due 2025 and 6.750 % senior notes due 2027 (which we collectively refer to as our “Senior Notes ”) are our unsecured senior obligations and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by substantially all of our direct and indirect wholly-owned operating subsidiaries (which we refer to collectively as “Guarantors”). In addition, our former 6.875 % senior notes due 2022 which were extinguished during the second quarter of 2019, were our unsecured senior obligations and were fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors. Each of the indentures governing our Senior Notes provides that the guarantees of a Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged: (1) upon any sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of all of the equity interests of such Guarantor after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a “Restricted Subsidiary” (as defined in the respective indentures ), which sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition does not constitute an “Asset Sale” (as defined in the respective indentures ) or is made in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture ; (2) upon any sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of all of the assets of such Guarantor, which sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition does not constitute an Asset Sale or is made in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture ; provided, that after such sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition, such Guarantor is an “Immaterial Subsidiary” (as defined in the respective indentures ); (3) unless a default has occurred and is continuing, upon the release or discharge of such Guarantor from its guarantee of any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company and the Guarantors so long as such Guarantor would not then otherwise be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to the applicable indenture ; provided that if such Guarantor has incurred any indebtedness in reliance on its status as a Guarantor in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable Indenture, such Guarantor’s obligations under such indebtedness, as the case may be, so incurred are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Guarantor) in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable Indenture; (4) upon the designation of such Guarantor as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” (as defined in the respective Indentures), in accordance with the applicable indenture ; (5) if the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option under the applicable indenture or if the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors are discharged in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture , upon such exercise or discharge; or (6) in connection with the dissolution of such Guarantor under applicable law in accordance with the applicable indenture . The indenture governing our former 6.875 % senior notes due 2022 contained a similar provision. As the guarantees were made in connection with exchange offers effected in February 2015, October 2015 and April 2017 and the issuance of the 5.875 % senior notes due 2025 and of the 6.750 % senior notes due 2027 , the Guarantors’ condensed financial information is presented as if the guarantees existed during the periods presented. If any Guarantors are released from the guarantees in future periods, the changes are reflected prospectively. We have determined that separate, full financial statements of the Guarantors would not be material to investors, and accordingly, supplemental financial information is presented below: Supplemental

Basis of Presentation [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Century Communities, Inc. (which we refer to as “we,” “CCS,” or the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in the States of Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Washington. In many of our projects, in addition to building homes, we are responsible for the entitlement and development of the underlying land. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Wade Jurney Homes brands. Our Century Communities brand targets a wide range of buyer profiles including: first time, first and second time move up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade selections. Our Wade Jurney Homes brand targets first time homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and provides no option or upgrade selections. Our homebuilding operations are organized into the following five reportable segments: West, Mountain, Texas, Southeast, and Wade Jurney Homes. Additionally, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inspire Home Loans, Inc., Parkway Title, LLC, and IHL Home Insurance Agency, LLC, which provide mortgage, title and insurance services, respectively, to our home buyers have been identified as our Financial Services segment. On June 14, 2018, we acquired the remaining 50 % ownership interest in WJH, LLC (which we refer to as “WJH” or “Wade Jurney Homes”) for $ 37.5 million. On the acquisition date, WJH had operations in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (which we refer to as “GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (which we refer to as the “SEC”). In the o pinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 that was filed with the SEC on February 13, 2019.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest, and variable interest entities for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We currently do not have any variable interest entities in which we are deemed the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications In order to conform to current year presentation, mortgage loans held for investment and derivative assets of $ 1.0 million and $ 0.7 million, respectively, have been reclassified to prepaid expenses and other assets from mortgage loans held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018.
Recently Adopted And Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Leases The Financial Accounting Standards Board (which we refer to as “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, Leases (which we refer to as “ASC 842”) which requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for most leases. ASC 842 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 and interim periods within the annual period. We adopted ASC 842 under a modified retrospective approach using the option to apply the transition provisions on the effective date January 1, 2019. The modified retrospective approach allows the Company to carry forward our historical lease classification, and to present historical periods under legacy lease accounting guidance. The Company’s leases primarily consist of leases for office space, and computer and office equipment where we are the lessee. ASC 842 includes several practical expedients which we elected upon adoption including to (a) not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (b) not reassess whether previously capitalized initial direct costs qualify for capitalization under ASC 842. Additionally, we elected to utilize hindsight when determining the lease term. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the establishment of a right of use asset of $ 17.7 million and a lease liability of $ 18.7 million on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASC 842 did not impact stockholders’ equity. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326).” The standard changes the accounting for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Credit losses which have historically been accounted for on an incurred loss basis will now be accounted for using an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses. This will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. Upon adoption, the standard will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We anticipate ASU 2016-13 will apply to certain of our loans held for investment and certain receivable balances. We do not anticipate this standard having a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40).” This standard aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The standard is effective for the Company January 1, 2020. Upon adoption, the Company has elected to apply the standard prospectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
