Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	1 . Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NVR, Inc. (“NVR” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries and certain other entities in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary (see Notes 2 and 3 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Because the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP, they should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals except as otherwise noted herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In 2016, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, comprehensive income equaled net income; therefore, a separate statement of comprehensive income is not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Variable Interest Entities

Variable Interest Entity Reporting Entity Involvement Maximum Loss Exposure [Abstract]
Variable Interest Entities	2. Variable Interest Entities Fixed Price Finished Lot Purchase Agreements (“Lot Purchase Agreements”) NVR generally does not engage in the land development business. Instead, the Company typically acquires finished building lots at market prices from various development entities under Lot Purchase Agreements. The Lot Purchase Agreements require deposits that may be forfeited if NVR fails to perform under the Lot Purchase Agreements. The deposits required under the Lot Purchase Agreements are in the form of cash or letters of credit in varying amounts, and typically range up to 10% of the aggregate purchase price of the finished lots. NVR believes this lot acquisition strategy reduces the financial requirements and risks associated with direct land ownership and land development. NVR may, at its option, choose for any reason and at any time not to perform under these Lot Purchase Agreements by delivering notice of its intent not to acquire the finished lots under contract. NVR’s sole legal obligation and economic loss for failure to perform under these Lot Purchase Agreements is limited to the amount of the deposit pursuant to the liquidated damage provisions contained within the Lot Purchase Agreements. In other words, if NVR does not perform under a Lot Purchase Agreement, NVR loses only its deposit. None of the creditors of any of the development entities with which NVR enters Lot Purchase Agreements have recourse to the general credit of NVR. NVR generally does not have any specific performance obligations to purchase a certain number or any of the lots, nor does NVR guarantee completion of the development by the developer or guarantee any of the developers’ financial or other liabilities. NVR is not involved in the design or creation of the development entities from which the Company purchases lots under Lot Purchase Agreements. The developer’s equity holders have the power to direct 100% of the operating activities of the development entity. NVR has no voting rights in any of the development entities. The sole purpose of the development entity’s activities is to generate positive cash flow returns for the equity holders. Further, NVR does not share in any of the profit or loss generated by the project’s development. The profits and losses are passed directly to the developer’s equity holders. The deposit placed by NVR pursuant to the Lot Purchase Agreement is deemed to be a variable interest in the respective development entities. Those development entities are deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”). Therefore, the development entities with which NVR enters into Lot Purchase Agreements, including the joint venture limited liability corporations discussed below, are evaluated for possible consolidation by NVR. An enterprise must consolidate a VIE when that enterprise has a controlling financial interest in the VIE. An enterprise is deemed to have a controlling financial interest if it has i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE or the rights to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. NVR believes the activities that most significantly impact a development entity’s economic performance are the operating activities of the entity. Unless and until a development entity completes finished building lots through the development process to be able to sell, the process of which the development entity’s equity investors bear the full risk, the entity does not earn any revenues. The operating development activities are managed solely by the development entity’s equity investors. The development entities with which NVR contracts to buy finished lots typically select the respective projects, obtain the necessary zoning approvals, obtain the financing required with no support or guarantees from NVR, select who will purchase the finished lots and at what price, and manage the completion of the infrastructure improvements, all for the purpose of generating a cash flow return to the development entity’s equity holders and all independent of NVR. The Company possesses no more than limited protective legal rights through the Lot Purchase Agreement in the specific finished lots that it is purchasing, and NVR possesses no participative rights in the development entities. Accordingly, NVR does not have the power to direct the activities of a developer that most significantly impact the developer’s economic performance. For this reason, NVR has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of the development entities with which the Company enters into Lot Purchase Agreements, and therefore, NVR does not consolidate any of these VIEs. As of September 30, 2016, NVR controlled approximately 72,300 lots under Lot Purchase Agreements with third parties through deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $399,700 and $2,000, respectively. As noted above, NVR’s sole legal obligation and economic loss for failure to perform under these Lot Purchase Agreements is limited to the amount of the deposit pursuant to the liquidated damage provisions contained in the Lot Purchase Agreements and, in very limited circumstances, specific performance obligations. In addition, NVR has certain properties under contract with land owners that are expected to yield approximately 10,900 lots, which are not included in the number of total lots controlled. Some of these properties may require rezoning or other approvals to achieve the expected yield. These properties are controlled with deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $16,600 and $350, respectively, as of September 30, 2016, of which approximately $2,300 is refundable if NVR does not perform under the contract. NVR generally expects to assign the raw land contracts to a land developer and simultaneously enter into a Lot Purchase Agreement with the assignee if the project is determined to be feasible. NVR’s total risk of loss related to contract land deposits as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was as follows: September 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 Contract land deposits $ 416,313 $ 385,534 Loss reserve on contract land deposits (38,817 ) (42,239 ) Contract land deposits, net 377,496 343,295 Contingent obligations in the form of letters of credit 2,310 3,302 Contingent specific performance obligations (1) 1,505 1,505 Total risk of loss $ 381,311 $ 348,102 (1) As of both September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was committed to purchase 10 finished lots under specific performance obligations.

Joint Ventures

Equity Method Investments And Joint Ventures [Abstract]
Joint Ventures	3. Joint Ventures On a limited basis, NVR obtains finished lots using joint venture limited liability corporations (“JVs”). The JVs are typically structured such that NVR is a non-controlling member and is at risk only for the amount the Company has invested, or has committed to invest, in addition to any deposits placed under Lot Purchase Agreements with the joint venture. At September 30, 2016, the Company had an aggregate investment totaling approximately $51,500 in six JVs that are expected to produce approximately 7,500 finished lots, of which approximately 4,200 lots were controlled by the Company and the remaining approximately 3,300 lots were either under contract with unrelated parties or not currently under contract. In addition, NVR had additional funding commitments totaling approximately $6,200 in the aggregate to three of the JVs at September 30, 2016. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of five of the JVs because either NVR and the other JV partner share power or the other JV partner has the controlling financial interest. The aggregate investment in unconsolidated JVs was approximately $51,100 and $59,800 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and is reported in the “Other assets” line item on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the remaining JV, NVR has concluded that it is the primary beneficiary because the Company has the controlling financial interest in the JV. The condensed balance sheets as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 of the consolidated JV were as follows: September 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 Assets: Cash $ 1,210 $ 990 Other assets 37 379 Land under development — 380 Total assets $ 1,247 $ 1,749 Liabilities and equity: Accrued expenses $ 611 $ 567 Equity 636 1,182 Total liabilities and equity $ 1,247 $ 1,749 The Company recognizes income from the JVs as a reduction to the lot cost of the lots purchased from the respective JVs when the homes are settled and is based on the expected total profitability and the total number of lots expected to be produced by the respective JVs. Distributions received from the unconsolidated JVs are allocated between return of capital and distributions of earnings based on the ratio of capital contributed by NVR to the total expected returns for the respective JVs, and are classified within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as cash flows from investing activities and operating activities, respectively.

Land Under Development

Land Under Development	9 Months Ended

Real Estate [Abstract]
Land Under Development	4. On a limited basis, NVR directly acquires raw land parcels already zoned for its intended use to develop into finished lots. Land under development includes the land acquisition costs, direct improvement costs, capitalized interest where applicable, and real estate taxes. As of September 30, 2016, NVR directly owned a total of four None of the raw parcels had any indicators of impairment as of September 30, 2016. Based on market conditions, NVR may on a limited basis continue to directly acquire additional raw parcels to develop into finished lots. In February 2016, the Company purchased a land parcel which included both land under development and finished lots for approximately $150,000. In June 2016, the Company sold that land parcel to a developer for an amount which approximated NVR’s net investment in the property as of the sale date. In conjunction with the sale, the Company also entered into Lot Purchase Agreements with the developer for the option to purchase a portion of the finished lots expected to be developed from the parcel. Prior to the sale of the parcel, the Company sold 56 finished lots for approximately $16,800, which were under contract with unrelated parties.

Goodwill And Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Excess Reorganization Value, Goodwill and Other Intangibles	7. Excess Reorganization Value, Goodwill and Other Intangibles Reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets (“excess reorganization value”) is an indefinite-lived intangible asset that was created upon NVR’s emergence from bankruptcy on September 30, 1993. Based on the allocation of the reorganization value, the portion of the reorganization value which was not attributed to specific tangible or intangible assets has been reported as excess reorganization value, which is treated similarly to goodwill. Excess reorganization value is not subject to amortization. Rather, excess reorganization value is subject to an impairment assessment on an annual basis or more frequently if changes in events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. Because excess reorganization value was based on the reorganization value of NVR’s entire enterprise upon emergence from bankruptcy, the impairment assessment is conducted on an enterprise basis based on the comparison of NVR’s total equity to the market value of NVR’s outstanding publicly-traded common stock. As of September 30, 2016, goodwill and net finite-lived intangible assets totaled $441 and $2,504, respectively. The remaining finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average life of three years. Accumulated amortization as of September 30, 2016 was $6,274. Amortization expense related to the finite-lived intangible assets was $346 and $1,037 for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company completed the annual impairment assessment of the excess reorganization value and goodwill during the first quarter of 2016 and determined that there was no impairment.

Product Warranties Disclosures [Abstract]
Product Warranties	9. Product Warranties The Company establishes warranty and product liability reserves (“warranty reserve”) to provide for estimated future expenses as a result of construction and product defects, product recalls and litigation incidental to NVR’s homebuilding business. Liability estimates are determined based on management’s judgment, considering such factors as historical experience, the likely current cost of corrective action, manufacturers’ and subcontractors’ participation in sharing the cost of corrective action, consultations with third party experts such as engineers, and discussions with the Company’s general counsel and outside counsel retained to handle specific product liability cases. The following table reflects the changes in the Company’s warranty reserve during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Warranty reserve, beginning of period $ 87,953 $ 85,874 $ 87,407 $ 94,060 Provision 11,622 12,674 33,331 32,899 Payments (11,551 ) (12,617 ) (32,714 ) (41,028 ) Warranty reserve, end of period $ 88,024 $ 85,931 $ 88,024 $ 85,931

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Disclosures	10. Segment Disclosures The following disclosure includes four homebuilding reportable segments that aggregate geographically the Company’s homebuilding operating segments, and the mortgage banking operations presented as a single reportable segment. The homebuilding reportable segments are comprised of operating divisions in the following geographic areas: Mid Atlantic: Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware and Washington, D.C. North East: New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania Mid East: New York, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois South East: North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Tennessee Homebuilding profit before tax includes all revenues and income generated from the sale of homes, less the cost of homes sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and a corporate capital allocation charge. The corporate capital allocation charge is eliminated in consolidation and is based on the segment’s average net assets employed. The corporate capital allocation charged to the operating segment allows the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to determine whether the operating segment’s results are providing the desired rate of return after covering the Company’s cost of capital. In addition, certain assets, including goodwill and intangible assets and consolidation adjustments as discussed further below, are not allocated to the operating segments as those assets are neither included in the operating segment’s corporate capital allocation charge, nor in the CODM’s evaluation of the operating segment’s performance. The Company records charges on contract land deposits when it is determined that it is probable that recovery of the deposit is impaired. For segment reporting purposes, impairments on contract land deposits are charged to the operating segment upon the determination to terminate a Lot Purchase Agreement with the developer, or to restructure a Lot Purchase Agreement resulting in the forfeiture of the deposit. Mortgage banking profit before tax consists of revenues generated from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the costs of such services and general and administrative costs. Mortgage banking operations are not charged a corporate capital allocation charge. In addition to the corporate capital allocation and contract land deposit impairments discussed above, the other reconciling items between segment profit and consolidated profit before tax include unallocated corporate overhead (including all management incentive compensation), equity-based compensation expense, consolidation adjustments and external corporate interest expense. NVR’s overhead functions, such as accounting, treasury and human resources, are centrally performed and the costs are not allocated to the Company’s operating segments. Consolidation adjustments consist of such items necessary to convert the reportable segments’ results, which are predominantly maintained on a cash basis, to a full accrual basis for external financial statement presentation purposes, and are not allocated to the Company’s operating segments. External corporate interest expense primarily consists of interest charges on the Company’s Senior Notes and is not charged to the operating segments because the charges are included in the corporate capital allocation discussed above. Following are tables presenting segment revenues, profit and assets, with reconciliations to the amounts reported for the consolidated enterprise, where applicable: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Revenues: Homebuilding Mid Atlantic $ 873,490 $ 792,532 $ 2,279,207 $ 2,094,820 Homebuilding North East 123,754 120,143 329,674 317,510 Homebuilding Mid East 327,387 299,157 877,921 705,670 Homebuilding South East 182,820 162,635 503,894 419,116 Mortgage Banking 30,118 27,884 79,082 66,617 Total consolidated revenues $ 1,537,569 $ 1,402,351 $ 4,069,778 $ 3,603,733 Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Profit before taxes: Homebuilding Mid Atlantic $ 81,137 $ 88,058 $ 191,476 $ 217,665 Homebuilding North East 8,711 10,745 18,354 29,359 Homebuilding Mid East 34,699 29,958 87,488 52,607 Homebuilding South East 16,548 17,372 45,159 38,812 Mortgage Banking 18,155 16,966 42,503 35,847 Total segment profit before taxes 159,250 163,099 384,980 374,290 Reconciling items: Contract land deposit reserve adjustment (1) 785 4,705 3,421 11,511 Equity-based compensation expense (11,081 ) (13,571 ) (32,459 ) (39,874 ) Corporate capital allocation (2) 50,032 45,690 140,606 124,033 Unallocated corporate overhead (18,459 ) (18,055 ) (74,485 ) (67,803 ) Consolidation adjustments and other 9,798 9,147 25,660 11,477 Corporate interest expense (5,322 ) (6,019 ) (14,688 ) (17,591 ) Reconciling items sub-total 25,753 21,897 48,055 21,753 Consolidated profit before taxes $ 185,003 $ 184,996 $ 433,035 $ 396,043 September 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 Assets: Homebuilding Mid Atlantic $ 1,223,426 $ 994,804 Homebuilding North East 145,191 133,106 Homebuilding Mid East 253,806 220,094 Homebuilding South East 229,682 175,572 Mortgage Banking 326,656 372,203 Total segment assets 2,178,761 1,895,779 Reconciling items: Consolidated variable interest entity 1,247 1,749 Cash and cash equivalents 249,728 397,522 Deferred taxes 171,941 161,805 Intangible assets and goodwill 51,872 52,909 Contract land deposit reserve (38,817 ) (42,239 ) Consolidation adjustments and other 48,484 44,193 Reconciling items sub-total 484,455 615,939 Consolidated assets $ 2,663,216 $ 2,511,718 (1) This item represents changes to the contract land deposit impairment reserve, which are not allocated to the reportable segments.

Fair Value

Fair Value	9 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	11. Fair Value GAAP assigns a fair value hierarchy to the inputs used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. Financial Instruments The estimated fair value of NVR’s Senior Notes as of September 30, 2016 was $633,000. The estimated fair value is based on recent market prices of similar transactions, which is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the Senior Notes was $596,303 at September 30, 2016. Except as otherwise noted below, NVR believes that insignificant differences exist between the carrying value and the fair value of its financial instruments, which consist of cash equivalents, due to their short term nature. Derivative Instruments and Mortgage Loans Held for Sale In the normal course of business, NVR’s wholly-owned mortgage subsidiary, NVR Mortgage Finance, Inc. (“NVRM”), enters into contractual commitments to extend credit to NVR’s homebuyers with fixed expiration dates. The commitments become effective when the borrowers "lock-in" a specified interest rate within time frames established by NVRM. All mortgagors are evaluated for credit worthiness prior to the extension of the commitment. Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time of the "lock-in" of rates by the borrower and the sale date of the loan to a broker/dealer. To mitigate the effect of the interest rate risk inherent The fair value of NVRM’s rate lock commitments to borrowers and the related input levels include, as applicable: i) the assumed gain/loss of the expected resultant loan sale (Level 2); ii) the effects of interest rate movements between the date of the rate lock and the balance sheet date (Level 2); and iii) the value of the servicing rights associated with the loan (Level 2). The assumed gain/loss considers the excess servicing to be received or buydown fees to be paid upon securitization of the loan. The excess servicing and buydown fees are calculated pursuant to contractual terms with investors. To calculate the effects of interest rate movements, NVRM utilizes applicable published mortgage-backed security prices, and multiplies the price movement between the rate lock date and the balance sheet date by the notional loan commitment amount. NVRM sells all of its loans on a servicing released basis, and receives a servicing released premium upon sale. Thus, the value of the servicing rights, which averaged 95 basis points of the loan amount as of September 30, 2016, is included in the fair value measurement and is based upon contractual terms with investors and varies depending on the loan type. NVRM assumes an approximate 13% fallout rate when measuring the fair value of rate lock commitments. Fallout is defined as locked loan commitments for which NVRM does not close a mortgage loan and is based on historical experience. The fair value of NVRM’s forward sales contracts to broker/dealers solely considers the market price movement of the same type of security between the trade date and the balance sheet date (Level 2). The market price changes are multiplied by the notional amount of the forward sales contracts to measure the fair value. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, net of deferred origination costs, until sold. Fair value is measured using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of loans held for sale of $291,303 included on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet has been increased by $2,760 from the aggregate principal balance of $288,543. The undesignated derivative instruments are included on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, as of September 30, 2016, as follows: Fair Value Balance Sheet Location Rate lock commitments: Gross assets $ 6,256 Gross liabilities 1,379 Net rate lock commitments $ 4,877 NVRM - Other assets Forward sales contracts: Gross assets $ 174 Gross liabilities 1,304 Net forward sales contracts $ 1,130 NVRM - Accounts payable and other liabilities The fair value measurement as of September 30, 2016 was as follows: Notional or Principal Amount Assumed Gain/(Loss) From Loan Sale Interest Rate Movement Effect Servicing Rights Value Security Price Change Total Fair Value Measurement Gain/(Loss) Rate lock commitments $ 553,600 $ (738 ) $ 1,024 $ 4,591 $ — $ 4,877 Forward sales contracts $ 757,756 — — — (1,130 ) (1,130 ) Mortgages held for sale $ 288,543 (51 ) 81 2,730 — 2,760 Total fair value measurement $ (789 ) $ 1,105 $ 7,321 $ (1,130 ) $ 6,507 For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, NVRM recorded a fair value adjustment to expense of $758 and $826, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, NVRM recorded a fair value adjustment to income of $3,429 and $5,040, respectively. Unrealized gains/losses from the change in the fair value measurements are included in earnings as a component of mortgage banking fees in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. The fair value measurement will be impacted in the future by the change in the value of the servicing rights, interest rate movements, security price fluctuations, and the volume and product mix of NVRM’s closed loans and locked loan commitments.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	12. Debt As of September 30, 2016, the Company had Senior Notes outstanding with a principal balance of $600,000. The Senior Notes mature on September 15, 2022 and bear interest at 3.95%, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15. The Senior Notes were issued at a discount to yield 3.97% and have been reflected net of the unamortized discount in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, following the Company’s adoption of ASU 2015-03 as of January 1, 2016, as further discussed in Note 1, the Senior Notes have been reflected net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $3,031 and $3,413 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. On July 15, 2016, NVR entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Book Runner, and the other lenders party thereto, which provides for aggregate revolving loan commitments of $200,000 (the “Facility”). Proceeds of the borrowings under the Facility will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may request increases of up to $300,000 to the Facility in the form of revolving loan commitments or term loans to the extent that new or existing lenders agree to provide additional revolving loan or term loan commitments. The Credit Agreement contains various representations and affirmative and negative covenants that are generally customary for credit facilities of this type. Such covenants include, among others, the following financial maintenance covenants: (i) minimum consolidated tangible net worth, (ii) minimum interest coverage ratio or minimum liquidity and (iii) a maximum leverage ratio. The negative covenants include, among others, certain limitations on liens, investments and fundamental changes. The Credit Agreement termination date is July 15, 2021. There was no debt outstanding under the Facility at September 30, 2016. NVRM provides for its mortgage origination and other operating activities using cash generated from its operations, borrowings from its parent company, NVR, as well as a revolving mortgage repurchase agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”), which is non-recourse to NVR. The Repurchase Agreement provides for loan purchases up to $150,000, subject to certain sub-limits, and provides for an incremental commitment pursuant to which NVRM may from time to time request increases in the total commitment available under the Repurchase Agreement by up to $50,000 in the aggregate. Amounts outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement are collateralized by the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale. The Repurchase Agreement expires on
