Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. and all of its 100% owned, majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries (which are referred to as the Company, unless the context otherwise requires). All significant intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Revenue Recognition Homebuilding revenue and related profit are generally recognized at the time of the closing of a sale, when title to and possession of the property are transferred to the buyer. In situations where the buyer’s financing is originated by DHI Mortgage, the Company’s 100% owned mortgage subsidiary, and the buyer has not made an adequate initial or continuing investment, the profit is deferred until the sale of the related mortgage loan to a third-party purchaser has been completed. At both September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the deferred profit on these home sales was $3.6 million . Any profit on land sales is deferred until the full accrual method criteria are met. When appropriate, revenue and profit on long-term construction projects are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. Financial services revenues associated with the Company’s title operations are recognized as closing services are rendered and title insurance policies are issued, both of which generally occur simultaneously as each home is closed. The Company transfers substantially all underwriting risk associated with title insurance policies to third-party insurers. The Company typically elects the fair value option for its mortgage loan originations. Mortgage loans held for sale are initially recorded at fair value based on either sale commitments or current market quotes and are adjusted for subsequent changes in fair value until the loans are sold. Net origination costs and fees associated with mortgage loans are recognized at the time of origination. The expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of a loan are included in the measurement of all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through earnings at the time of commitment. The Company generally sells the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers within 30 days of origination. Interest income is earned from the date a mortgage loan is originated until the loan is sold. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Proceeds from home closings held for the Company’s benefit at title companies are included in homebuilding cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets. Cash balances of the Company’s captive insurance subsidiary, which are expected to be used to fund the subsidiary’s operations and pay future anticipated legal claims, were $36.7 million and $40.5 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and are included in homebuilding cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets. Restricted Cash The Company has cash that is restricted as to its use. Restricted cash related to homebuilding operations includes cash used as collateral for outstanding letters of credit issued under the Company’s secured letter of credit agreement and customer deposits that are temporarily restricted in accordance with regulatory requirements. Inventories and Cost of Sales Inventory includes the costs of direct land acquisition, land development and home construction, capitalized interest, real estate taxes and direct overhead costs incurred during development and home construction. Costs incurred after development projects or homes are substantially complete, such as utilities, maintenance, and cleaning, are charged to selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense as incurred. All indirect overhead costs, such as compensation of sales personnel, division and region management, and the costs of advertising and builder’s risk insurance are charged to SG&A expense as incurred. Land and development costs are typically allocated to individual residential lots on a pro-rata basis, and the costs of residential lots are transferred to construction in progress when home construction begins. Home construction costs are specifically identified and recorded to individual homes. Cost of sales for homes closed includes the specific construction costs of each home and all applicable land acquisition, land development and related costs (both incurred and estimated to be incurred) allocated to each residential lot based upon the total number of homes expected to be closed in each community. Any changes to the estimated total development costs subsequent to the initial home closings in a community are generally allocated on a pro-rata basis to the remaining homes in the community associated with the relevant development activity. When a home is closed, the Company generally has not paid all incurred costs necessary to complete the home. A liability and a corresponding charge to cost of sales are recorded for the amount estimated to ultimately be paid related to completed homes that have been closed. Home construction budgets are compared to actual recorded costs to determine the additional costs remaining to be paid on each closed home. The Company rarely purchases land for resale. However, when the Company owns land or communities under development that do not fit into its development and construction plans, and the Company determines that it will sell the asset, the project is accounted for as land held for sale if certain criteria are met. The Company records land held for sale at the lesser of its carrying value or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Each quarter, the Company reviews its communities and land inventories for indicators of potential impairment. If indicators of impairment are present for a community, the Company performs an impairment evaluation of the community, which includes an analysis to determine if the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If so, impairment charges are recorded to cost of sales if the fair value of such assets is less than their carrying amounts. Impairment charges are also recorded on finished homes in substantially completed communities when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying values are greater than the fair values less estimated costs to sell these homes. The key assumptions relating to inventory valuations are impacted by local market and economic conditions and are inherently uncertain. Due to uncertainties in the estimation process, actual results could differ from such estimates. See Note C . Capitalized Interest The Company capitalizes interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. During periods in which the Company’s active inventory is lower than its debt level, a portion of the interest incurred is reflected as interest expense in the period incurred. During fiscal 2017 and 2016 , the Company’s active inventory exceeded its debt level, and all interest incurred was capitalized to inventory. See Note E . Land Option Deposits and Pre-Acquisition Costs The Company enters into land and lot option purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. Under these contracts, the Company will fund a stated deposit in consideration for the right, but not the obligation, to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. Under the terms of many of the option purchase contracts, the option deposits are not refundable in the event the Company elects to terminate the contract. Option deposits and capitalized pre-acquisition costs are expensed to inventory and land option charges when the Company believes it is probable that it will not acquire the property under option and will not be able to recover these costs through other means. See Notes C and K . Variable Interests Option purchase contracts can result in the creation of a variable interest in the entity holding the land parcel under option. There were no variable interest entities reported in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2017 and 2016 because the Company determined it did not control the activities that most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s economic performance, and it did not have an obligation to absorb losses of or the right to receive benefits from the entity. The maximum exposure to losses related to the Company’s variable interest entities is limited to the amounts of the Company’s related option deposits. At September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the option deposits related to these contracts totaled $222.9 million and $149.5 million , respectively, and are included in homebuilding other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation generally is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The depreciable life of model home furniture is 2 years , depreciable lives of office furniture and equipment typically range from 2 to 5 years , and depreciable lives of buildings and improvements typically range from 5 to 30 years . The Company’s property and equipment balances and the related accumulated depreciation at September 30, 2017 and 2016 were as follows: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) Buildings and improvements (1) $ 219.0 $ 158.4 Multi-family rental properties under construction (2) 59.2 8.3 Model home furniture 120.4 101.0 Office furniture and equipment 99.7 85.4 Land 52.9 37.8 Total property and equipment 551.2 390.9 Accumulated depreciation (226.2 ) (195.5 ) Property and equipment, net $ 325.0 $ 195.4 _____________ (1) The current year balance includes $15.3 million related to the Company’s multi-family rental properties at September 30, 2017 . (2) The prior year balance of $8.3 million , previously included in buildings and improvements, has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Depreciation expense was $49.4 million , $50.8 million and $50.3 million in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Business Acquisitions The Company accounts for acquisitions of businesses by allocating the purchase price of the business to the various assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Significant judgment is often required in estimating the fair value of assets acquired, particularly intangible assets. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience, information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and the Company’s estimates of significant assumptions that a market participant would use when determining fair value. While the Company believes the estimates and assumptions are reasonable, they are inherently uncertain. Unanticipated market or macroeconomic events and circumstances may occur, which could affect the accuracy or validity of the estimates and assumptions. In September 2016 , the Company acquired the homebuilding operations of Wilson Parker Homes for $91.9 million . Wilson Parker Homes operated in Atlanta and Augusta, Georgia; Raleigh, North Carolina; Columbia, South Carolina and Phoenix, Arizona. The assets acquired included approximately 380 homes in inventory, 490 lots and control of approximately 1,850 additional lots through option contracts. The Company also acquired a sales order backlog of 308 homes. No goodwill was recorded as a result of this acquisition. All of the assets acquired in this transaction were recorded at their estimated fair values by the Company. The acquisition was not material to the Company’s results of operations or its financial condition. In October 2017 , the Company acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar) for $558.3 million in cash, pursuant to the terms of the June 2017 merger agreement. Forestar is and will continue to be a publicly-traded residential and real estate development company listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “FOR.” See Note P . Goodwill The Company records goodwill associated with its acquisitions of businesses when the purchase price of the business exceeds the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill balances are evaluated for potential impairment on at least an annual basis by comparing the carrying value of each of the operating segments with goodwill to their estimated fair values. The estimated fair value is determined by discounting the future cash flows of the operating segment to their present value. If the carrying value of the operating segment exceeds its fair value, the Company determines if an impairment exists based on the implied fair value of the operating segment’s goodwill. As a result of the goodwill evaluation performed in fiscal 2017 , no impairment charges were recorded. As a result of the goodwill evaluation performed in fiscal 2016 , an impairment charge of $7.2 million was recorded to write off the remaining goodwill in the Huntsville operating segment in the Southeast reporting region. This operating segment experienced lower levels of profitability than anticipated primarily due to difficult market conditions. The Company’s goodwill balances by reporting segment were as follows: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) East $ 21.8 $ 21.8 Midwest — — Southeast 40.1 40.1 South Central 15.9 15.9 Southwest — — West 2.2 2.2 Total goodwill $ 80.0 $ 80.0 Warranty Claims The Company typically provides its homebuyers with a ten-year limited warranty for major defects in structural elements such as framing components and foundation systems, a two-year limited warranty on major mechanical systems and a one-year limited warranty on other construction components. Since the Company subcontracts its construction work to subcontractors who typically provide it with an indemnity and a certificate of insurance prior to receiving payments for their work, claims relating to workmanship and materials are generally the primary responsibility of the subcontractors. Warranty liabilities have been established by charging cost of sales for each home delivered. The amounts charged are based on management’s estimate of expected warranty-related costs under all unexpired warranty obligation periods. The Company’s warranty liability is based upon historical warranty cost experience in each market in which it operates and is adjusted to reflect qualitative risks associated with the types of homes built and the geographic areas in which they are built. See Note K . Legal Claims and Insurance The Company records expenses and liabilities for legal claims related to construction defect matters, personal injury claims, employment matters, land development issues, contract disputes and other matters. The amounts recorded for these contingencies are based on the estimated costs of pending claims and the estimated costs of anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes. The Company estimates and records receivables under its applicable insurance policies for these legal claims when recovery is probable. Additionally, the Company may have the ability to recover a portion of its losses from its subcontractors and their insurance carriers when the Company has been named as an additional insured on their insurance policies. See Note K . Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $45.4 million , $41.2 million and $42.4 million in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Income Taxes The Company’s income tax expense is calculated using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and attributable to net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. When assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income in future periods and in the jurisdictions in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company records a valuation allowance when it determines it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in the financial statements as a component of income tax expense. Significant judgment is required to evaluate uncertain tax positions. The Company evaluates its uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. The evaluations are based upon a number of factors, including changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, correspondence with tax authorities during the course of audits and effective settlement of audit issues. Changes in the recognition or measurement of uncertain tax positions could result in increases or decreases in the Company’s income tax expense in the period in which the change is made. See Note G . Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive securities outstanding during each year. See Note H . Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s stockholders formally authorize shares of its common stock to be available for future grants of stock-based compensation awards. From time to time, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors authorizes the grant of stock-based compensation to its employees and directors from these available shares. At September 30, 2017 , the outstanding stock-based compensation awards include stock options and restricted stock units. Grants of restricted stock units may vest immediately or over a certain number of years as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Restricted stock units outstanding at September 30, 2017 have a remaining vesting period of 1 to 5 years . Stock options are granted at exercise prices which equal the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant. The stock options outstanding at September 30, 2017 vest over periods of 2 to 9.75 years from the initial grant date and expire 10 years after the dates on which they were granted. The compensation expense for stock-based awards is based on the fair value of the award and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period. The fair values of restricted stock units are based on the Company’s stock price at the date of grant. The fair values of stock options granted are calculated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of stock options requires judgment in developing assumptions and involves a number of estimates. These estimates include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, the expected dividend yield and expected stock option exercise behavior. In addition, judgment is used in estimating the number of stock options that are expected to be forfeited. The benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation expense are reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows as a financing cash flow. See Note J . Fair Value Measurements The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level hierarchy based upon the inputs to the valuation model of an asset or liability. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices in active markets to determine fair value. The Company considers the principal market and nonperformance risk associated with the Company’s counterparties when determining the fair value measurements, if applicable. Fair value measurements are used for the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale, debt securities collateralized by residential real estate, interest rate lock commitments and other derivative instruments on a recurring basis and are used for inventories, certain other mortgage loans, rental properties and real estate owned on a nonrecurring basis, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. See Note M . Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and allows for full retrospective or modified retrospective methods of adoption. The Company currently plans to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method and is continuing to evaluate its effect. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” which simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory, excluding inventory measured using the last-in, first-out or retail inventory methods. The guidance specifies that inventory currently measured at the lower of cost or market, where market could be determined with different methods, should now be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2017 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires that lease assets and liabilities be recognized on the balance sheet, and that key information about leasing arrangements be disclosed. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2019, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2017 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information in determining credit loss estimates. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which amends and clarifies the current guidance to reduce diversity in practice of the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated statements of cash flows. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows - Restricted Cash,” which requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the total beginning and ending amounts for the periods shown on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or cash flows. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations - Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” The guidance simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing the second step of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. Under the new guidance, goodwill impairment is measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value with the loss recognized limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting,” which clarifies which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required if the fair value, vesting conditions or classification (equity or liability) of the new award are different from the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company’s operating segments are its 41 homebuilding divisions, its financial services operations and its other business activities. The homebuilding operating segments are aggregated into six reporting segments and the financial services segment is its own reporting segment. The Company’s reportable homebuilding segments are: East, Midwest, Southeast, South Central, Southwest and West. These reporting segments have homebuilding operations located in the following states: East: Delaware, Georgia (Savannah only), Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Virginia Midwest: Colorado, Illinois and Minnesota Southeast: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee South Central: Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas Southwest: Arizona and New Mexico West: California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington Homebuilding is the Company’s core business, generating 98% of consolidated revenues in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 . The Company’s homebuilding segments are primarily engaged in the acquisition and development of land and the construction and sale of residential homes in 26 states and 79 markets across the United States. The homebuilding segments generate most of their revenues from the sale of completed homes and to a lesser extent from the sale of land and lots. The Company’s financial services segment provides mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of the Company’s homebuilding markets. The segment generates the substantial majority of its revenues from originating and selling mortgages and collecting fees for title insurance agency and closing services. The Company sells substantially all of the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers. In addition to its core homebuilding and financial services operations, the Company has subsidiaries that engage in other business activities. These subsidiaries conduct insurance-related operations, construct and own income-producing rental properties, own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements and own and operate oil and gas related assets. The operating results of these subsidiaries are immaterial for separate reporting and therefore are grouped together and presented as other. One of these subsidiaries, DHI Communities, recently began developing and constructing multi-family rental properties on land parcels the Company already owned and currently has four projects under active construction. Costs incurred by DHI Communities totaled $93.7 million at September 30, 2017 and are included in property and equipment in the Financial Services and Other section of the consolidated balance sheet. The combined assets of all of the Company’s subsidiaries engaged in other business activities totaled $143.3 million and $54.9 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and the combined pre-tax loss of these subsidiaries was $11.7 million , $9.0 million and $0 in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. The accounting policies of the reporting segments are described throughout Note A . Financial information relating to the Company’s reporting segments is as follows: Year Ended September 30, 2017 2016 2015 (In millions) Revenues Homebuilding revenues: East $ 1,640.1 $ 1,446.5 $ 1,333.6 Midwest 736.5 651.7 666.1 Southeast 4,087.6 3,463.5 2,890.6 South Central 3,383.1 2,995.1 2,725.2 Southwest 597.5 388.1 336.1 West 3,296.7 2,916.9 2,607.4 Homebuilding revenues 13,741.5 11,861.8 10,559.0 Financial services revenues 349.5 295.6 265.0 Total revenues $ 14,091.0 $ 12,157.4 $ 10,824.0 Inventory Impairments East $ 10.5 $ 12.3 $ 14.3 Midwest 1.0 — — Southeast 2.4 0.7 8.8 South Central 1.6 1.0 1.4 Southwest 1.4 6.0 — West 6.3 0.3 20.4 Total inventory impairments $ 23.2 $ 20.3 $ 44.9 Income Before Income Taxes (1) (2) Homebuilding pre-tax income: East $ 153.9 $ 138.7 $ 94.2 Midwest 49.1 44.3 49.8 Southeast 450.3 388.4 278.7 South Central 439.1 374.8 296.6 Southwest 39.6 7.3 13.1 West 357.3 310.9 285.9 Homebuilding pre-tax income 1,489.3 1,264.4 1,018.3 Financial services pre-tax income 124.5 98.1 105.1 Homebuilding and financial services pre-tax income 1,613.8 1,362.5 1,123.4 Other pre-tax loss (11.7 ) (9.0 ) — Income before income taxes $ 1,602.1 $ 1,353.5 $ 1,123.4 _____________ (1) Expenses maintained at the corporate level consist primarily of interest and property taxes, which are capitalized and amortized to cost of sales or expensed directly, and the expenses related to operating the Company’s corporate office. The amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes is allocated to each segment based on the segment’s cost of sales, while expenses associated with the corporate office are allocated to each segment based on the segment’s inventory balances.

Inventory Impairments and Land Option Cost Write-Offs [Abstract] | |
Inventory | INVENTORY At the end of each quarter during fiscal 2017 , the Company reviewed the performance and outlook for all of its communities and land inventories for indicators of potential impairment and performed detailed impairment evaluations and analyses when necessary. As of September 30, 2017 , the Company performed detailed impairment evaluations of communities and land inventories with a combined carrying value of $105.3 million and recorded impairment charges of $12.8 million during the fourth quarter to reduce the carrying value of impaired communities and land to their estimated fair value. Total impairment charges during fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 were $23.2 million , $20.3 million and $44.9 million , respectively. During fiscal 2017 , the Company wrote off $17.0 million of earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to land option contracts that the Company has terminated or expects to terminate. Earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs for fiscal 2016 and 2015 were $11.1 million and $15.4 million , respectively. |

Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Notes Payable | NOTES PAYABLE The Company’s notes payable at their principal amounts, net of debt issuance costs, consist of the following: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) Homebuilding: Unsecured: Revolving credit facility, maturing 2022 $ — $ — 4.75% senior notes due 2017 — 349.5 3.625% senior notes due 2018 399.7 398.9 3.75% senior notes due 2019 498.8 498.0 4.0% senior notes due 2020 497.9 497.1 4.375% senior notes due 2022 348.1 347.7 4.75% senior notes due 2023 298.4 298.2 5.75% senior notes due 2023 397.6 397.3 Other secured notes 11.1 11.6 $ 2,451.6 $ 2,798.3 Financial Services: Mortgage repurchase facility, maturing 2018 $ 420.0 $ 473.0 Debt issuance costs that were deducted from the carrying amounts of the senior notes totaled $9.5 million and $13.3 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. These costs are capitalized into inventory as they are amortized. As of September 30, 2017 , maturities of consolidated notes payable, assuming the mortgage repurchase facility is not extended or renewed, are $829.6 million in fiscal 2018 , $500.8 million in fiscal 2019 , $500.7 million in fiscal 2020 , none in fiscal 2021 , $350.0 million in fiscal 2022 and $700.0 million thereafter. Homebuilding: The Company has a senior unsecured revolving credit facility which was amended in September 2017 to increase its capacity from $975 million to $1.275 billion and to extend its maturity date to September 25, 2022 . The uncommitted accordion feature was also amended to permit an increase in the size of the facility to $1.9 billion , subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to approximately 50% of the revolving credit commitment. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be based on either the Prime Rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin, as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility. Borrowings and repayments under the facility were $835 million during fiscal 2017 . At September 30, 2017 , there were no borrowings outstanding and $94.3 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility. The Company’s revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on its operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and a borrowing base restriction if the Company’s ratio of debt to tangible net worth exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility and the indenture governing the senior notes also impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At September 30, 2017 , the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility and public debt obligations. The Company has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in August 2015, registering debt and equity securities that the Company may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined. On May 15, 2017, the Company repaid $350 million principal amount of its 4.75% senior notes, which were due on that date. The key terms of the Company’s senior notes outstanding as of September 30, 2017 are summarized below. Notes Payable Principal Amount Date Issued Date Due Redeemable Prior to Maturity (1) Effective Interest Rate (2) (In millions) 3.625% senior notes $400.0 February 2013 February 15, 2018 Yes 3.8% 3.75% senior notes $500.0 February 2014 March 1, 2019 Yes 3.9% 4.0% senior notes $500.0 February 2015 February 15, 2020 Yes 4.2% 4.375% senior notes $350.0 September 2012 September 15, 2022 Yes 4.5% 4.75% senior notes $300.0 February 2013 February 15, 2023 Yes 4.9% 5.75% senior notes $400.0 August 2013 August 15, 2023 Yes 5.9% _____________ (1) The Company may redeem the notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of their principal amount or the present value of the remaining scheduled payments on the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid interest. (2) Interest is payable semi-annually on each of the series of senior notes. The annual effective interest rate is calculated after giving effect to the amortization of debt issuance costs. All series of senior notes and borrowings under the revolving credit facility are senior obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment to all existing and future unsecured indebtedness and senior to all existing and future indebtedness expressly subordinated to them. The senior notes and borrowings under the revolving credit facility are guaranteed by entities that hold approximately 92% of the Company’s assets. Upon the occurrence of both a change of control of the Company and a ratings downgrade event, as defined in the indenture governing its senior notes, the Company would be required in certain circumstances to offer to repurchase these notes at 101% of their principal amount, along with accrued and unpaid interest. Also, a change of control as defined in the revolving credit facility would constitute an event of default under the revolving credit facility, which could result in the acceleration of any borrowings outstanding under the facility and the termination of the commitments thereunder. Effective August 1, 2017 , the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s debt securities effective through July 31, 2018 . All of the $500 million authorization was remaining at September 30, 2017 . Financial Services: The Company’s mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has a mortgage repurchase facility that is accounted for as a secured financing. The mortgage repurchase facility provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties against the transfer of funds by the counterparties, thereby becoming purchased loans. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 60 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. In February 2017, the mortgage repurchase facility was amended to increase its capacity to $600 million and extend its maturity date to February 23, 2018 . The capacity of the facility increases, without requiring additional commitments, to $725 million for approximately 30 days at each quarter end and to $800 million for approximately 45 days at fiscal year end. The capacity can also be increased to $1.0 billion subject to the availability of additional commitments. As of September 30, 2017 , $540.1 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $520.0 million were pledged under the mortgage repurchase facility. As a result of advance paydowns totaling $100.0 million , DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $420.0 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at September 30, 2017 at a 3.3% annual interest rate. The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported to the lenders monthly. At September 30, 2017 , DHI Mortgage was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility. In the past, DHI Mortgage has been able to renew or extend its mortgage credit facility at a sufficient capacity and on satisfactory terms prior to its maturity and obtain temporary additional commitments through amendments to the credit facility during periods of higher than normal volumes of mortgages held for sale. The liquidity of the Company’s financial services business depends upon its continued ability to renew and extend the mortgage repurchase facility or to obtain other additional financing in sufficient capacities. |

Mortgage Loans on Real Estate [Abstract] | |
Mortgage Loans | MORTGAGE LOANS Mortgage Loans Held for Sale Mortgage loans held for sale consist primarily of single-family residential loans collateralized by the underlying property. At September 30, 2017 , mortgage loans held for sale had an aggregate carrying value of $587.3 million and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $570.8 million . At September 30, 2016 , mortgage loans held for sale had an aggregate carrying value of $654.0 million and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $631.8 million . During the years ended September 30, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , mortgage loans originated totaled $6.8 billion , $5.9 billion and $5.1 billion , respectively, and mortgage loans sold totaled $6.8 billion , $5.9 billion and $5.0 billion , respectively. The Company had gains on sales of loans and servicing rights of $251.1 million , $207.5 million and $182.8 million during the years ended September 30, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Net gains on sales of loans and servicing rights are included in financial services revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Approximately 84% of the mortgage loans sold by DHI Mortgage during fiscal 2017 were sold to three major financial entities, one of which purchased 45% of the total loans sold. To manage the interest rate risk inherent in its mortgage operations, the Company hedges its risk using derivative instruments, generally forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), which are referred to as “hedging instruments” in the following discussion. The Company does not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Newly originated loans that have been closed but not committed to third-party purchasers are hedged to mitigate the risk of changes in their fair value. Hedged loans are committed to third-party purchasers typically within three days after origination. The notional amounts of the hedging instruments used to hedge mortgage loans held for sale vary in relationship to the underlying loan amounts, depending on the movements in the value of each hedging instrument relative to the value of the underlying mortgage loans. The fair value change related to the hedging instruments generally offsets the fair value change in the mortgage loans held for sale. The net fair value change, which for the years ended September 30, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 was not significant, is recognized in financial services revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. At September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale that were not committed to third-party purchasers totaled $330.7 million and $284.5 million , respectively, and the notional amounts of the hedging instruments related to those loans totaled $330.7 million and $284.5 million , respectively. Other Mortgage Loans and Loss Reserves Mortgage loans are sold with limited recourse provisions derived from industry-standard representations and warranties in the relevant agreements. These representations and warranties primarily involve the absence of misrepresentations by the borrower or other parties, the appropriate underwriting of the loan and in some cases, a required minimum number of payments to be made by the borrower. The Company generally does not retain any other continuing interest related to mortgage loans sold in the secondary market. The majority of other mortgage loans consists of loans repurchased due to these limited recourse obligations. Typically, these loans are impaired and some become real estate owned through the foreclosure process. At September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the Company’s total other mortgage loans and real estate owned, before loss reserves, were as follows: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) Other mortgage loans $ 8.3 $ 15.6 Real estate owned — 0.8 $ 8.3 $ 16.4 The Company has recorded reserves for estimated losses on other mortgage loans, real estate owned and future loan repurchase obligations due to the limited recourse provisions, all of which are recorded as reductions of financial services revenue. The loss reserve for loan repurchase and settlement obligations is estimated based on analysis of the volume of mortgages originated, loan repurchase requests received, actual repurchases and losses through the disposition of such loans or requests and discussions with mortgage purchasers. The reserve balances at September 30, 2017 and 2016 were as follows: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) Loss reserves related to: Other mortgage loans $ 1.0 $ 1.8 Real estate owned — 0.1 Loan repurchase and settlement obligations - known and expected 7.7 6.8 $ 8.7 $ 8.7 Other mortgage loans and real estate owned net of the related loss reserves are included in other assets, while loan repurchase obligations are included in accounts payable and other liabilities, both of which are in the Financial Services and Other section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Loan Commitments and Related Derivatives The Company is party to interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs), which are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. At September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the notional amount of IRLCs, which are accounted for as derivative instruments recorded at fair value, totaled $446.2 million and $467.6 million , respectively. The Company manages interest rate risk related to its IRLCs through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments and hedging instruments. These instruments are considered derivatives in an economic hedge and are accounted for at fair value with gains and losses recognized in financial services revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. At September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the notional amount of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments totaled $26.9 million and $37.2 million , respectively, and the notional amount of hedging instruments related to IRLCs not yet committed to purchasers totaled $389.3 million and $385.5 million , respectively. |

Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES Income Tax Expense The components of the Company’s income tax expense are as follows: Year Ended September 30, 2017 2016 2015 (In millions) Current tax expense: Federal $ 425.6 $ 376.0 $ 356.4 State 27.3 15.9 13.2 452.9 391.9 369.6 Deferred tax expense (benefit): Federal 87.9 47.6 (3.1 ) State 22.9 27.7 6.2 110.8 75.3 3.1 Total income tax expense $ 563.7 $ 467.2 $ 372.7 The Company’s effective tax rate was 35.2% , 34.5% and 33.2% in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. The effective tax rate for all years includes an expense for state income taxes, reduced by tax benefits for the domestic production activities deduction and federal energy tax credits. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2015 also includes a tax benefit for a reduction in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company previously filed three requests for advance consent for a change in tax accounting method with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) relating to changes in the timing of income and expense recognition for tax purposes. The Company agreed to and signed consent agreements for two of the three requests during the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The impact of the approved tax accounting method changes was reflected in the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2017 as a reduction in income taxes payable of $58.2 million , a reduction in the deferred tax asset related to inventory costs of $50.1 million , an increase in the deferred tax liability related to the deferral of profit on home sales of $13.4 million and income tax expense of $5.3 million . The third request for advance consent for a change in tax accounting method will be recognized in the period in which a consent agreement is issued by the IRS and agreed to and signed by the Company. Reconciliation of Expected Income Tax Expense Differences between income tax expense and tax computed by applying the federal statutory rate of 35% to income before income taxes during each year is due to the following: Year Ended September 30, 2017 2016 2015 (In millions) Income taxes at federal statutory rate $ 560.7 $ 473.7 $ 393.2 Increase (decrease) in tax resulting from: State income taxes, net of federal benefit 42.3 38.6 37.0 Domestic production activities deduction (39.8 ) (36.3 ) (35.7 ) Valuation allowance 0.8 0.2 (21.0 ) Tax credits (3.5 ) (15.9 ) (2.2 ) Other 3.2 6.9 1.4 Total income tax expense $ 563.7 $ 467.2 $ 372.7 Deferred Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases and of tax loss and credit carryforwards. Components of deferred income taxes are summarized as follows: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) Deferred tax assets: Inventory costs $ 42.6 $ 87.6 Inventory impairments 83.9 128.3 Warranty and construction defect costs 163.7 138.8 Net operating loss carryforwards 26.2 40.1 Tax credit carryforwards 2.5 2.9 Incentive compensation plans 92.6 82.2 Deferred income 1.7 2.2 Other 13.9 11.1 Total deferred tax assets 427.1 493.2 Valuation allowance (11.2 ) (10.3 ) Total deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance 415.9 482.9 Deferred tax liabilities: Deferral of profit on home sales 41.6 — Other 9.3 6.6 Total deferred tax liabilities $ 50.9 $ 6.6 Deferred income taxes, net $ 365.0 $ 476.3 Tax benefits of $26.2 million exist for state net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards that will expire at various times depending on the tax jurisdiction. Of the total amount, $3.8 million of the tax benefits will expire from fiscal years 2018 to 2022, $2.7 million will expire from fiscal years 2023 to 2027 and $19.7 million will expire from fiscal years 2028 to 2037. Tax benefits for state tax credit carryforwards of $1.4 million will expire from fiscal years 2018 to 2019 and $1.1 million of tax benefits for state tax credit carryforwards have no expiration date. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets. Valuation Allowance When assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income in future periods. The Company records a valuation allowance when it determines it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The valuation allowance for both years relates to the Company’s state deferred tax assets for NOL carryforwards. As of September 30, 2017 , the Company believes it is more likely than not that a portion of its state NOL carryforwards will not be realized because some state NOL carryforward periods are too brief to realize the related deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to its remaining state NOL carryforwards. Unrecognized Tax Benefits Unrecognized tax benefits are the differences between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the benefits recognized for accounting purposes. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and no accrued interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 . The Company classifies interest expense and penalties on income taxes as income tax expense. Regulations and Legislation The Company is subject to federal income tax and to income tax in multiple states. The statute of limitations for the Company’s major tax jurisdictions remains open for examination for fiscal years 2014 through 2017. The Company is currently being audited by various states; however, to date, management is not aware of any significant findings identified by the taxing authorities. |

Employee Benefits Plans | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Deferred Compensation Plans The Company has a 401(k) plan for all employees who have been with the Company for a period of six months or more. The Company matches portions of employees’ voluntary contributions. Additional employer contributions in the form of profit sharing may also be made at the Company’s discretion. The Company recorded $16.0 million , $13.3 million and $10.8 million of expense for matching contributions in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. The Company’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) is a non-qualified deferred compensation program that provides benefits payable to certain management employees upon retirement, death or termination of employment. Under the SERP, the Company accrues an unfunded benefit based on a percentage of the eligible employees’ salaries, as well as an interest factor based upon a predetermined formula. The Company’s liabilities related to the SERP were $31.6 million and $28.3 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The Company recorded $4.9 million , $4.6 million and $4.4 million of expense for this plan in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. The Company has a deferred compensation plan available to a select group of employees which allows participating employees to contribute compensation into the plan on a before tax basis and defer income taxation on the contributions until the funds are withdrawn from the plan. The participating employees designate investments for their contributions; however, the Company is not required to invest the contributions in the designated investments. The Company’s net liabilities related to the deferred compensation plan were $58.2 million and $46.7 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The Company records as expense the amount that the employee contributions would have earned had the funds been invested in the designated investments. Related to this plan, the Company recorded expense of $6.3 million and $4.0 million in fiscal 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and a reduction in expense of $1.7 million in fiscal 2015 . Employee Stock Purchase Plan The Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan provides eligible employees the opportunity to purchase common stock of the Company at a discounted price of 85% of the fair market value of the stock on the designated dates of purchase. The price to eligible employees may be further discounted depending on the average fair market value of the stock during the period and certain other criteria. Under the terms of the plan, the total fair market value of common stock that an eligible employee may purchase each year is limited to the lesser of 15% of the employee’s annual compensation or $25,000 . Under the plan, employees purchased 111,527 shares for $2.8 million in fiscal 2017 , 89,652 shares for $2.2 million in fiscal 2016 and 82,446 shares for $1.7 million in fiscal 2015 . At September 30, 2017 , the Company had 3.2 million shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Incentive Bonus Plan The Company’s Incentive Bonus Plan provides for the Compensation Committee to award short-term performance bonuses to senior management based upon the level of achievement of certain criteria. For fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , the Compensation Committee approved awards whereby certain executive officers could earn performance bonuses based upon percentages of the Company’s pre-tax income. Compensation expense related to these plans was $16.8 million , $14.2 million and $11.8 million in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s Stock Incentive Plan provides for the granting of stock options and restricted stock units to executive officers, other key employees and non-management directors. Restricted stock unit awards may be based on performance (performance-based) or on service over a requisite time period (time-based). At September 30, 2017 , the Company had 31.8 million shares of common stock reserved for issuance and 19.0 million shares available for future grants under the Stock Incentive Plan. The discussion that follows provides further information regarding stock-based compensation granted during fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 . Stock Options Stock options are granted at exercise prices which equal the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant. The options outstanding at September 30, 2017 vest over periods of 2 to 9.75 years from the initial grant date and expire 10 years after the dates on which they were granted. The Company did not grant stock options during fiscal 2017 , 2016 or 2015 , however the following table provides additional information related to stock option activity during those years. Year Ended September 30, 2017 2016 2015 Stock Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Stock Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Stock Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Outstanding at beginning of year 11,395,917 $ 16.69 15,337,656 $ 17.50 19,478,811 $ 17.37 Exercised (2,770,569 ) 15.83 (3,504,989 ) 20.02 (3,636,655 ) 16.49 Cancelled or expired (194,000 ) 18.83 (436,750 ) 18.45 (504,500 ) 19.89 Outstanding at end of year 8,431,348 $ 16.92 11,395,917 $ 16.69 15,337,656 $ 17.50 Exercisable at end of year 5,772,214 $ 16.01 6,645,967 $ 14.99 6,859,889 $ 16.51 The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 was $49.5 million , $39.2 million and $44.6 million , respectively. The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the market value of the underlying stock exceeds the option exercise price. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at September 30, 2017 was $194.0 million and $138.0 million , respectively. Exercise prices for options outstanding at September 30, 2017 ranged from $9.03 to $23.86 . The weighted average remaining contractual lives of options outstanding and exercisable at September 30, 2017 were 4.0 and 3.9 years , respectively. For fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , compensation expense related to stock options was $15.1 million , $20.5 million and $28.9 million , respectively. At September 30, 2017 , there was $9.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock option awards. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years . Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) Equity Awards During fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , performance-based RSU equity awards that vest at the end of three -year performance periods were granted to the Company’s Chairman, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Operating Officer. The number of units that ultimately vest depends on the Company’s relative position as compared to its peers in achieving certain performance criteria and can range from 0% to 200% of the number of units granted. The performance criteria are total shareholder return, return on investment, SG&A expense containment and gross profit. The performance-based RSUs have no dividend or voting rights during the performance period. Each of these performance-based RSUs represents the contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock if the vesting conditions are satisfied. Compensation expense related to these grants is based on the Company’s performance against the peer group, the elapsed portion of the performance period and the grant date fair value of the award. The following table provides additional information related to the performance-based RSUs outstanding at September 30, 2017 . Grant Date Vesting Date Target Number of Performance Units Grant Date Fair Value per Unit Compensation Expense Year Ended September 30, 2017 2016 2015 (In millions) November 2014 September 2017 290,000 $ 23.62 $ 3.8 $ 4.1 $ 3.4 November 2015 September 2018 330,000 30.81 6.8 4.0 — November 2016 September 2019 330,000 29.20 5.1 — — $ 15.7 $ 8.1 $ 3.4 In November 2017, the Compensation Committee approved the payout of the performance-based RSUs that vested in September 2017 in the form of 471,250 shares of common stock to satisfy the awards. Time-Based Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) Equity Awards Time-based RSUs represent the contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock if the vesting conditions are satisfied. The time-based RSUs have no dividend or voting rights during the vesting period. During fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , time-based RSUs were granted to the Company’s executive officers, other key employees and non-management directors (collectively, approximately 600 , 570 and 580 recipients, respectively). These awards vest annually in equal installments over periods of three to five years . RSUs generally result in less dilution to shareholders than stock options, which have been granted to key employees in the past. RSUs also provide an immediate, tangible value to the recipient and better diversification than stock options alone, which promotes the retention of key employees over the multi-year vesting period. The following table provides additional information related to time-based RSU activity during fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 . Year Ended September 30, 2017 2016 2015 Number of Restricted Stock Units Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Number of Restricted Stock Units Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Number of Restricted Stock Units Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Outstanding at beginning of year 3,478,233 $ 24.12 1,978,262 $ 25.60 26,668 $ 21.49 Granted 1,868,660 28.64 2,117,330 23.14 2,036,900 26.02 Vested (792,941 ) 24.48 (423,427 ) 25.57 (12,221 ) 21.48 Cancelled (188,170 ) 25.21 (193,932 ) 25.05 (73,085 ) 26.06 Outstanding at end of year 4,365,782 $ 26.09 3,478,233 $ 24.12 1,978,262 $ 25.60 The total fair value of shares vested on the vesting date during fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 was $25.0 million , $12.0 million and $0.3 million , respectively. For fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , compensation expense related to time-based RSUs was $28.8 million , $18.7 million and $9.4 million respectively. At September 30, 2017 , there was $69.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested time-based RSU awards. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.5 years . |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Warranty Claims The Company provides its homebuyers with warranties for defects in structural components, mechanical systems and other construction components of the home. Warranty liabilities are established by charging cost of sales for each home delivered based on management’s estimate of expected warranty-related costs and by accruing for existing warranty claims. The Company’s warranty liability is based upon historical warranty cost experience in each market in which it operates and is adjusted to reflect qualitative risks associated with the types of homes built and the geographic areas in which they are built. The estimation of these costs is subject to a high degree of variability due to uncertainties related to these factors. Due to the high degree of judgment required in establishing the liability for warranty claims, actual future costs could differ significantly from current estimated amounts, and it is not possible for the Company to make a reasonable estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of its warranty liability. Changes in the Company’s warranty liability during fiscal 2017 and 2016 were as follows: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) Warranty liability, beginning of year $ 104.4 $ 82.0 Warranties issued 69.7 54.2 Changes in liability for pre-existing warranties 30.0 13.9 Settlements made (60.4 ) (45.7 ) Warranty liability, end of year $ 143.7 $ 104.4 Legal Claims and Insurance The Company is named as a defendant in various claims, complaints and other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. At any point in time, the Company is managing several hundred individual claims related to construction defect matters, personal injury claims, employment matters, land development issues, contract disputes and other matters. The Company has established reserves for these contingencies based on the estimated costs of pending claims and the estimated costs of anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes. The estimated liabilities for these contingencies were $420.6 million and $423.5 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and are included in homebuilding accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Approximately 98% and 95% of these reserves related to construction defect matters at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Expenses related to the Company’s legal contingencies were $87.8 million , $49.6 million and $43.4 million in fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. The Company’s reserves for construction defect claims include the estimated costs of both known claims and anticipated future claims. As of September 30, 2017 , no individual existing claim was material to the Company’s financial statements. The Company has closed a significant number of homes during recent years and may be subject to future construction defect claims on these homes. Although regulations vary from state to state, construction defect issues can generally be reported for up to ten years after the home has closed in many states in which the Company operates. Historical data and trends regarding the frequency of claims incurred and the costs to resolve claims relative to the types of products and markets where the Company operates are used to estimate the construction defect liabilities for both existing and anticipated future claims. These estimates are subject to ongoing revision as the circumstances of individual pending claims and historical data and trends change. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs. Historical trends in construction defect claims have been inconsistent, and the Company believes they may continue to fluctuate. Housing market conditions have been volatile across most of the Company’s markets over the past ten years, and the Company believes such conditions can affect the frequency and cost of construction defect claims. If the ultimate resolution of construction defect claims resulting from the Company’s home closings in prior years varies from current expectations, it could significantly change the Company’s estimates regarding the frequency and timing of claims incurred and the costs to resolve existing and anticipated future claims, which would impact the construction defect reserves in the future. If the frequency of claims incurred or costs of existing and future legal claims significantly exceed the Company’s current estimates, they will have a significant negative impact on its future earnings and liquidity. The Company’s reserves for legal claims decreased from $423.5 million at September 30, 2016 to $420.6 million at September 30, 2017 . Changes in the Company’s legal claims reserves during fiscal 2017 and 2016 were as follows: September 30, 2017 2016 (In millions) Reserves for legal claims, beginning of year $ 423.5 $ 451.0 Increase in reserves 91.0 25.4 Payments (93.9 ) (52.9 ) Reserves for legal claims, end of year $ 420.6 $ 423.5 In the majority of states in which it operates, the Company has, and requires the majority of the subcontractors it uses to have, general liability insurance which includes construction defect coverage. The Company’s general liability insurance policies protect it against a portion of its risk of loss from construction defect and other claims and lawsuits, subject to self-insured retentions and other coverage limits. For policy years ended June 30, 2005 through 2018, the Company is self-insured for the first $10.0 million to $17.5 million of aggregate completed operations indemnity claims incurred, depending on the policy year. After the aggregate self-insurance limits have been satisfied, the Company’s excess loss insurance coverage begins. However, the Company must still pay $0.25 million of any indemnity claim and a portion of the legal fees incurred for each claim occurrence. In some states where the Company believes it is too difficult or expensive for its subcontractors to obtain general liability insurance, the Company has waived its normal subcontractor general liability insurance requirements to obtain lower costs from subcontractors. In these states, the Company purchases insurance policies from either third-party carriers or its 100% owned captive insurance subsidiary and names certain subcontractors as additional insureds. The policies issued by the captive insurance subsidiary represent self-insurance of these risks by the Company. The Company is self-insured under its captive policies for up to $25.0 million in aggregate completed operations indemnity claims per policy year and for the first $0.25 million for each claim occurrence. For all policy years after April 2007, the captive insurance subsidiary has $15.0 million of excess loss insurance coverage with a third-party insurer. For policy years 2016 , 2017 and 2018 , after consideration of the aforementioned $15.0 million of risk transfer, the Company is self-insured under these captive policies for up to $10.0 million in aggregate completed operations indemnity claims, plus defense costs, per policy year and for up to $0.25 million for each claim occurrence. The Company is self-insured for the deductible amounts under its workers’ compensation insurance policies. The deductibles vary by policy year, but in no years exceed $0.5 million per occurrence. The deductible for the 2016 , 2017 and 2018 policy years is $0.5 million per occurrence. The Company estimates and records receivables under its applicable insurance policies related to its estimated contingencies for known claims and anticipated future construction defect claims on previously closed homes and other legal claims and lawsuits incurred in the ordinary course of business when recovery is probable. Additionally, the Company may have the ability to recover a portion of its losses from its subcontractors and their insurance carriers when the Company has been named as an additional insured on their insurance policies. The Company’s receivables related to its estimates of insurance recoveries from estimated losses for pending legal claims and anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes totaled $74.4 million and $88.7 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and are included in homebuilding other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The estimation of losses related to these reserves and the related estimates of recoveries from insurance policies are subject to a high degree of variability due to uncertainties such as trends in construction defect claims relative to the Company’s markets and the types of products built, claim frequency, claim settlement costs and patterns, insurance industry practices and legal interpretations, among others. Due to the high degree of judgment required in establishing reserves for these contingencies, actual future costs and recoveries from insurance could differ significantly from current estimated amounts, and it is not possible for the Company to make a reasonable estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of its reserves. Land and Lot Option Purchase Contracts The Company enters into land and lot option purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. At September 30, 2017 , the Company had total deposits of $227.6 million , consisting of cash deposits of $221.3 million and promissory notes and letters of credit of $6.3 million , to purchase land and lots with a total remaining purchase price of approximately $4.6 billion . The majority of land and lots under contract are currently expected to be purchased within three years. A limited number of the land and lot option purchase contracts at September 30, 2017 , representing $29.7 million of remaining purchase price, were subject to specific performance provisions which may require the Company to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their contractual obligations. Other Commitments At September 30, 2017 , the Company had outstanding surety bonds of $1.2 billion and letters of credit of $96.8 million to secure performance under various contracts. Of the total letters of credit, $94.3 million were issued under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The remaining $2.5 million of letters of credit were issued under a secured letter of credit agreement requiring the Company to deposit cash as collateral with the issuing bank, and the cash restricted for this purpose is included in homebuilding restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company leases office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. At September 30, 2017 , the future minimum annual lease payments under these agreements are as follows (in millions): 2018 $ 15.5 2019 9.8 2020 5.7 2021 4.1 2022 2.6 Thereafter 1.1 $ 38.8 Rent expense was $26.3 million , $24.7 million and $22.4 million for fiscal 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value measurements are used for the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale, debt securities collateralized by residential real estate, IRLCs and other derivative instruments on a recurring basis and are used for inventories, other mortgage loans, rental properties and real estate owned on a nonrecurring basis, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value hierarchy and its application to the Company’s assets and liabilities is as follows: • Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The Company does not currently have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs. • Level 2 – Valuation is determined from quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market. The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value using Level 2 inputs on a recurring basis are as follows: • Mortgage loans held for sale - The fair value of these loans is generally calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell mortgage loans with similar characteristics. Closed mortgage loans are typically sold shortly after origination, which limits exposure to nonperformance by loan buyer counterparties to a short time period. In addition, the Company actively monitors the financial strength of its counterparties. • IRLCs - The fair value of IRLCs is calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell mortgage loans with similar characteristics. These valuations do not contain adjustments for expirations as any expired commitments are excluded from the fair value measurement. The Company generally only issues IRLCs for products that meet specific purchaser guidelines. Should any purchaser become insolvent, the Company would not be required to close the transaction based on the terms of the commitment. Since not all IRLCs will become closed loans, the Company adjusts its fair value measurements for the estimated amount of IRLCs that will not close. • Loan sale commitments and hedging instruments - The fair values of best-efforts and mandatory loan sale commitments and derivative instruments such as forward sales of MBS that are utilized as hedging instruments are calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets. The Company mitigates exposure to nonperformance risk associated with derivative instruments by limiting the number of counterparties and actively monitoring their financial strength and creditworthiness while requiring them to be well-known institutions with credit ratings equal to or better than AA- or equivalent. Further, the Company’s derivative contracts typically have short-term durations with maturities from one to four months. Accordingly, the Company’s risk of nonperformance relative to its derivative positions is not significant. The Company’s assets measured at fair value using Level 2 inputs on a nonrecurring basis are a limited number of mortgage loans held for sale with some degree of impairment affecting their marketability and are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value. When available, fair value is determined by reference to quoted prices in the secondary markets for such assets. After consideration of nonperformance risk, no additional adjustments were made to the fair value measurements of mortgage loans held for sale, IRLCs or hedging instruments. • Level 3 – Valuation is typically derived from model-based techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable and based on the Company’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use to value the asset or liability. The Company’s assets measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs on a recurring basis are its debt securities collateralized by residential real estate and a limited number of mortgage loans held for sale with some degree of impairment affecting their marketability and for which reference to quoted prices in the secondary markets is not available. The Company’s assets measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs that are typically reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value on a nonrecurring basis are as follows: • Inventory held and used - In determining the fair values of its inventory held and used in its impairment evaluations, the Company performs an analysis of the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets. The most significant factors used to estimate undiscounted future cash flows include pricing and incentive levels actually realized by the community, the rate at which the homes are sold and the costs incurred to develop the lots and construct the homes. Inventory held and used measured at fair value represents those communities for which the estimated undiscounted cash flows are less than their carrying amounts and therefore, the Company has recorded impairments during the current period to record the inventory at fair value calculated based on its discounted estimated future cash flows. • Inventory available for sale - The factors considered in determining fair values of the Company’s land held for sale primarily include actual sale contracts and recent offers received from outside third parties, and may also include prices for land in recent comparable sales transactions and other market analysis. If the estimated fair value less the costs to sell an asset is less than the asset’s current carrying value, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. • Certain mortgage loans held for sale - A limited number of mortgage loans held for sale have some degree of impairment affecting their marketability. For some of these loans, quoted prices in the secondary market are not available and therefore, a cash flow valuation model is used to determine fair value. • Certain other mortgage loans, rental properties and real estate owned - Other mortgage loans include performing and nonperforming mortgage loans, which often become real estate owned through the foreclosure process. The fair values of other mortgage loans, rental properties and real estate owned are determined based on the Company’s assessment of the value of the underlying collateral or the value of the property, as applicable. The Company uses different methods to assess the value of the properties, which may include broker price opinions, appraisals or cash flow valuation models. The following tables summarize the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , and the changes in the fair value of the Level 3 assets during fiscal 2017 and 2016 . Fair Value at September 30, 2017 Balance Sheet Location Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (In millions) Homebuilding: Debt securities collateralized by residential real estate Other assets $ — $ — $ 8.8 $ 8.8 Financial Services and Other: Mortgage loans held for sale (a) Mortgage loans held for sale — 580.2 5.6 585.8 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (b): Interest rate lock commitments Other assets — 9.4 — 9.4 Forward sales of MBS Other assets — 1.1 — 1.1 Best-efforts and mandatory commitments Other assets — 0.6 — 0.6 Fair Value at September 30, 2016 Balance Sheet Location Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (In millions) Financial Services and Other: Mortgage loans held for sale (a) Mortgage loans held for sale $ — $ 640.9 $ 6.8 $ 647.7 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (b): Interest rate lock commitments Other assets — 9.3 — 9.3 Forward sales of MBS Other liabilities — (2.6 ) — (2.6 ) Best-efforts and mandatory commitments Other liabilities — (0.2 ) — (0.2 ) Level 3 Assets at Fair Value for the Year Ended September 30, 2017 Balance at Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) Purchases Sales and Settlements Principal Reductions Net transfers to (out of) Level 3 Balance at (In millions) Debt securities collateralized by residential real estate $ — $ — $ 8.8 $ — $ — $ — $ 8.8 Mortgage loans held for sale (a) 6.8 1.3 — (13.4 ) — 10.9 5.6 Level 3 Assets at Fair Value for the Year Ended September 30, 2016 Balance at Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) Purchases Sales and Settlements Principal Reductions Net transfers to (out of) Level 3 Balance at (In millions) Debt securities collateralized by residential real estate $ 33.9 $ 2.2 $ — $ (35.8 ) $ (0.3 ) $ — $ — Mortgage loans held for sale (a) 13.9 2.4 — (27.1 ) — 17.6 6.8 _____________ (a) Mortgage loans held for sale are reflected at fair value. Interest income earned on mortgage loans held for sale is based on contractual interest rates and included in financial services interest and other income. Mortgage loans held for sale at September 30, 2017 and 2016 include $5.6 million and $6.8 million , respectively, of loans for which the Company elected the fair value option upon origination and which the Company did not sell into the secondary market. Mortgage loans held for sale totaling $10.9 million and $17.6 million were transferred to Level 3 during fiscal 2017 and 2016 , respectively, due to significant unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of these loans. The fair value of these mortgage loans held for sale is generally calculated considering pricing in the secondary market and adjusted for the value of the underlying collateral, including interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. The Company plans to sell these loans as market conditions permit. (b) Fair value measurements of these derivatives represent changes in fair value, as calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets, and are reflected in the balance sheet as other assets or other liabilities. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are included in financial services revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2017 and 2016 : Fair Value at September 30, 2017 Fair Value at September 30, 2016 Balance Sheet Location Level 2 Level 3 Level 2 Level 3 (In millions) Homebuilding: Inventory held and used (a) (b) Inventories $ — $ 33.4 $ — $ 5.2 Inventory available for sale (a) (c) Inventories — 1.2 — 0.8 Financial Services and Other: Mortgage loans held for sale (a) (d) Mortgage loans held for sale — 0.6 1.6 2.4 Other mortgage loans (a) (e) Other assets — 1.4 — 3.8 Real estate owned (a) (e) Other assets — — — 0.1 ____________________ (a) The fair values included in the table above represent only those assets whose carrying values were adjusted to fair value as a result of impairment in the respective period and were held at the end of the period. (b) In performing its impairment analysis of communities, discount rates ranging from 10% to 18% were used in the periods presented. (c) The fair value of inventory available for sale was determined based on recent offers received from outside third parties, comparable sales or actual contracts. (d) These mortgage loans have some degree of impairment affecting their marketability. When available, quoted prices in the secondary market are used to determine fair value (Level 2); otherwise, a cash flow valuation model is used to determine fair value (Level 3). (e) The fair values of other mortgage loans and real estate owned are determined based on the value of the underlying collateral. For the financial assets and liabilities that the Company does not reflect at fair value, the following tables present both their respective carrying value and fair value at September 30, 2017 and 2016 : Carrying Value Fair Value at September 30, 2017 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (In millions) Homebuilding: Cash and cash equivalents (a) $ 973.0 $ 973.0 $ — $ — $ 973.0 Restricted cash (a) 9.3 9.3 — — 9.3 Senior notes (b) 2,440.5 — 2,584.1 — 2,584.1 Other secured notes (a) 11.1 — — 11.1 11.1 Financial Services and Other: Cash and cash equivalents (a) 34.8 34.8 — — 34.8 Restricted cash (a) (c) 7.2 7.2 — — 7.2 Mortgage repurchase facility (a) 420.0 — — 420.0 420.0 Carrying Value Fair Value at September 30, 2016 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (In millions) Homebuilding: Cash and cash equivalents (a) $ 1,271.8 $ 1,271.8 $ — $ — $ 1,271.8 Restricted cash (a) 9.5 9.5 — — 9.5 Senior notes (b) 2,786.7 — 2,947.4 — 2,947.4 Other secured notes (a) 11.6 — — 11.6 11.6 Financial Services and Other: Cash and cash equivalents (a) 31.4 31.4 — — 31.4 Mortgage repurchase facility (a) 473.0 — — 473.0 473.0 ____________________ (a) The fair value approximates carrying value due to its short-term nature, short maturity or floating interest rate terms, as applicable. (b) The fair value is determined based on quoted prices, which is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. (c) Restricted cash of the financial services segment represents escrow funds for taxes and insurance and is included in other assets in the Financial Services and Other section of the consolidated balance sheet. |

The Company experiences variability in its results of operations from quarter to quarter due to the seasonal nature of its homebuilding business. The Company generally closes more homes and has greater revenues and income before income taxes in the third and fourth quarters (June and September) than in the first and second quarters (December and March) of its fiscal year. |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Events [Text Block] | SUBSEQUENT EVENT On October 5, 2017 , the Company acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar for $558.3 million in cash, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement entered into in June 2017. Forestar is and will continue to be a publicly-traded residential and real estate development company with operations currently in 14 markets and 10 states, where it owns, directly or through joint ventures, interests in 44 residential and mixed-use projects. The Company’s alignment with Forestar advances its strategy of increasing its access to high-quality optioned land and lot positions to enhance operational efficiency and returns. Both companies are identifying land development opportunities to expand Forestar’s platform, and the Company plans to acquire a large portion of Forestar’s finished lots in accordance with the master supply agreement between the two companies. As the controlling shareholder of Forestar, the Company will have significant influence in guiding the strategic direction and driving the operational execution necessary to increase the future value potential of Forestar. The Company has hired a valuation firm to assist in the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As of the date of issuance of the financial statements the purchase price allocation had not been completed. The Company anticipates the purchase price will be allocated primarily to the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Forestar, but does anticipate some intangible assets arising from the transaction. |

Summary of Significant Accoun25
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Sep. 30, 2017 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. and all of its 100% owned, majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries (which are referred to as the Company, unless the context otherwise requires). All significant intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Homebuilding revenue and related profit are generally recognized at the time of the closing of a sale, when title to and possession of the property are transferred to the buyer. In situations where the buyer’s financing is originated by DHI Mortgage, the Company’s 100% owned mortgage subsidiary, and the buyer has not made an adequate initial or continuing investment, the profit is deferred until the sale of the related mortgage loan to a third-party purchaser has been completed. At both September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the deferred profit on these home sales was $3.6 million . Any profit on land sales is deferred until the full accrual method criteria are met. When appropriate, revenue and profit on long-term construction projects are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. Financial services revenues associated with the Company’s title operations are recognized as closing services are rendered and title insurance policies are issued, both of which generally occur simultaneously as each home is closed. The Company transfers substantially all underwriting risk associated with title insurance policies to third-party insurers. The Company typically elects the fair value option for its mortgage loan originations. Mortgage loans held for sale are initially recorded at fair value based on either sale commitments or current market quotes and are adjusted for subsequent changes in fair value until the loans are sold. Net origination costs and fees associated with mortgage loans are recognized at the time of origination. The expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of a loan are included in the measurement of all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through earnings at the time of commitment. The Company generally sells the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers within 30 days of origination. Interest income is earned from the date a mortgage loan is originated until the loan is sold. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Proceeds from home closings held for the Company’s benefit at title companies are included in homebuilding cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets. Cash balances of the Company’s captive insurance subsidiary, which are expected to be used to fund the subsidiary’s operations and pay future anticipated legal claims, were $36.7 million and $40.5 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and are included in homebuilding cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash The Company has cash that is restricted as to its use. Restricted cash related to homebuilding operations includes cash used as collateral for outstanding letters of credit issued under the Company’s secured letter of credit agreement and customer deposits that are temporarily restricted in accordance with regulatory requirements. |
Inventories and Cost of Sales | Inventories and Cost of Sales Inventory includes the costs of direct land acquisition, land development and home construction, capitalized interest, real estate taxes and direct overhead costs incurred during development and home construction. Costs incurred after development projects or homes are substantially complete, such as utilities, maintenance, and cleaning, are charged to selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense as incurred. All indirect overhead costs, such as compensation of sales personnel, division and region management, and the costs of advertising and builder’s risk insurance are charged to SG&A expense as incurred. Land and development costs are typically allocated to individual residential lots on a pro-rata basis, and the costs of residential lots are transferred to construction in progress when home construction begins. Home construction costs are specifically identified and recorded to individual homes. Cost of sales for homes closed includes the specific construction costs of each home and all applicable land acquisition, land development and related costs (both incurred and estimated to be incurred) allocated to each residential lot based upon the total number of homes expected to be closed in each community. Any changes to the estimated total development costs subsequent to the initial home closings in a community are generally allocated on a pro-rata basis to the remaining homes in the community associated with the relevant development activity. When a home is closed, the Company generally has not paid all incurred costs necessary to complete the home. A liability and a corresponding charge to cost of sales are recorded for the amount estimated to ultimately be paid related to completed homes that have been closed. Home construction budgets are compared to actual recorded costs to determine the additional costs remaining to be paid on each closed home. The Company rarely purchases land for resale. However, when the Company owns land or communities under development that do not fit into its development and construction plans, and the Company determines that it will sell the asset, the project is accounted for as land held for sale if certain criteria are met. The Company records land held for sale at the lesser of its carrying value or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Each quarter, the Company reviews its communities and land inventories for indicators of potential impairment. If indicators of impairment are present for a community, the Company performs an impairment evaluation of the community, which includes an analysis to determine if the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If so, impairment charges are recorded to cost of sales if the fair value of such assets is less than their carrying amounts. Impairment charges are also recorded on finished homes in substantially completed communities when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying values are greater than the fair values less estimated costs to sell these homes. The key assumptions relating to inventory valuations are impacted by local market and economic conditions and are inherently uncertain. Due to uncertainties in the estimation process, actual results could differ from such estimates. See Note C . |
Capitalized Interest | Capitalized Interest The Company capitalizes interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. During periods in which the Company’s active inventory is lower than its debt level, a portion of the interest incurred is reflected as interest expense in the period incurred. During fiscal 2017 and 2016 , the Company’s active inventory exceeded its debt level, and all interest incurred was capitalized to inventory. See Note E . |
Land Option Deposits and Pre-Acquisition Costs | Land Option Deposits and Pre-Acquisition Costs The Company enters into land and lot option purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. Under these contracts, the Company will fund a stated deposit in consideration for the right, but not the obligation, to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. Under the terms of many of the option purchase contracts, the option deposits are not refundable in the event the Company elects to terminate the contract. Option deposits and capitalized pre-acquisition costs are expensed to inventory and land option charges when the Company believes it is probable that it will not acquire the property under option and will not be able to recover these costs through other means. See Notes C and K . |
Variable Interests | Variable Interests Option purchase contracts can result in the creation of a variable interest in the entity holding the land parcel under option. There were no variable interest entities reported in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2017 and 2016 because the Company determined it did not control the activities that most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s economic performance, and it did not have an obligation to absorb losses of or the right to receive benefits from the entity. The maximum exposure to losses related to the Company’s variable interest entities is limited to the amounts of the Company’s related option deposits. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation generally is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The depreciable life of model home furniture is 2 years , depreciable lives of office furniture and equipment typically range from 2 to 5 years , and depreciable lives of buildings and improvements typically range from 5 to 30 years . |
Business Acquisitions | Business Acquisitions The Company accounts for acquisitions of businesses by allocating the purchase price of the business to the various assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Significant judgment is often required in estimating the fair value of assets acquired, particularly intangible assets. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience, information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and the Company’s estimates of significant assumptions that a market participant would use when determining fair value. While the Company believes the estimates and assumptions are reasonable, they are inherently uncertain. Unanticipated market or macroeconomic events and circumstances may occur, which could affect the accuracy or validity of the estimates and assumptions. |
Goodwill | Goodwill The Company records goodwill associated with its acquisitions of businesses when the purchase price of the business exceeds the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill balances are evaluated for potential impairment on at least an annual basis by comparing the carrying value of each of the operating segments with goodwill to their estimated fair values. The estimated fair value is determined by discounting the future cash flows of the operating segment to their present value. If the carrying value of the operating segment exceeds its fair value, the Company determines if an impairment exists based on the implied fair value of the operating segment’s goodwill. |
Warranty Claims | Warranty Claims The Company typically provides its homebuyers with a ten-year limited warranty for major defects in structural elements such as framing components and foundation systems, a two-year limited warranty on major mechanical systems and a one-year limited warranty on other construction components. Since the Company subcontracts its construction work to subcontractors who typically provide it with an indemnity and a certificate of insurance prior to receiving payments for their work, claims relating to workmanship and materials are generally the primary responsibility of the subcontractors. Warranty liabilities have been established by charging cost of sales for each home delivered. The amounts charged are based on management’s estimate of expected warranty-related costs under all unexpired warranty obligation periods. The Company’s warranty liability is based upon historical warranty cost experience in each market in which it operates and is adjusted to reflect qualitative risks associated with the types of homes built and the geographic areas in which they are built. See Note K . |
Legal Claims and Insurance | Legal Claims and Insurance The Company records expenses and liabilities for legal claims related to construction defect matters, personal injury claims, employment matters, land development issues, contract disputes and other matters. The amounts recorded for these contingencies are based on the estimated costs of pending claims and the estimated costs of anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes. The Company estimates and records receivables under its applicable insurance policies for these legal claims when recovery is probable. Additionally, the Company may have the ability to recover a portion of its losses from its subcontractors and their insurance carriers when the Company has been named as an additional insured on their insurance policies. See Note K . |
Advertising Costs | Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company’s income tax expense is calculated using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and attributable to net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. When assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income in future periods and in the jurisdictions in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company records a valuation allowance when it determines it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in the financial statements as a component of income tax expense. Significant judgment is required to evaluate uncertain tax positions. The Company evaluates its uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. The evaluations are based upon a number of factors, including changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, correspondence with tax authorities during the course of audits and effective settlement of audit issues. Changes in the recognition or measurement of uncertain tax positions could result in increases or decreases in the Company’s income tax expense in the period in which the change is made. See Note G . |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive securities outstanding during each year. See Note H . |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s stockholders formally authorize shares of its common stock to be available for future grants of stock-based compensation awards. From time to time, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors authorizes the grant of stock-based compensation to its employees and directors from these available shares. At September 30, 2017 , the outstanding stock-based compensation awards include stock options and restricted stock units. Grants of restricted stock units may vest immediately or over a certain number of years as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Restricted stock units outstanding at September 30, 2017 have a remaining vesting period of 1 to 5 years . Stock options are granted at exercise prices which equal the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant. The stock options outstanding at September 30, 2017 vest over periods of 2 to 9.75 years from the initial grant date and expire 10 years after the dates on which they were granted. The compensation expense for stock-based awards is based on the fair value of the award and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period. The fair values of restricted stock units are based on the Company’s stock price at the date of grant. The fair values of stock options granted are calculated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of stock options requires judgment in developing assumptions and involves a number of estimates. These estimates include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, the expected dividend yield and expected stock option exercise behavior. In addition, judgment is used in estimating the number of stock options that are expected to be forfeited. The benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation expense are reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows as a financing cash flow. See Note J . |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level hierarchy based upon the inputs to the valuation model of an asset or liability. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices in active markets to determine fair value. The Company considers the principal market and nonperformance risk associated with the Company’s counterparties when determining the fair value measurements, if applicable. Fair value measurements are used for the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale, debt securities collateralized by residential real estate, interest rate lock commitments and other derivative instruments on a recurring basis and are used for inventories, certain other mortgage loans, rental properties and real estate owned on a nonrecurring basis, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. See Note M . |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and allows for full retrospective or modified retrospective methods of adoption. The Company currently plans to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method and is continuing to evaluate its effect. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” which simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory, excluding inventory measured using the last-in, first-out or retail inventory methods. The guidance specifies that inventory currently measured at the lower of cost or market, where market could be determined with different methods, should now be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2017 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires that lease assets and liabilities be recognized on the balance sheet, and that key information about leasing arrangements be disclosed. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2019, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2017 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information in determining credit loss estimates. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which amends and clarifies the current guidance to reduce diversity in practice of the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated statements of cash flows. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows - Restricted Cash,” which requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the total beginning and ending amounts for the periods shown on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or cash flows. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations - Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” The guidance simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing the second step of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. Under the new guidance, goodwill impairment is measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value with the loss recognized limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting,” which clarifies which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required if the fair value, vesting conditions or classification (equity or liability) of the new award are different from the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

(c) The fair value of inventory available for sale was determined based on recent offers received from outside third parties, comparable sales or actual contracts. (d) These mortgage loans have some degree of impairment affecting their marketability. When available, quoted prices in the secondary market are used to determine fair value (Level 2); otherwise, a cash flow valuation model is used to determine fair value (Level 3).
