              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

A.   PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

       The condensed consolidated financial statements of M.D.C. Holdings, Inc.
("MDC" or the "Company," which, unless otherwise indicated, refers to M.D.C.
Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries) have been prepared by MDC, without audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
These statements reflect all adjustments (including all normal recurring
accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly
the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of MDC as of March
31, 1995 and for all of the periods presented.  These statements are condensed
and do not include all of the information required by generally accepted
accounting principles in a full set of financial statements.  These statements
should be read in conjunction with MDC's financial statements and notes thereto
included in MDC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended
December 31, 1994.

       Price Waterhouse LLP has made a review, and not an audit, of the
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 (based on procedures adopted
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) as set forth in their
separate report dated April 26, 1995, which is included as an exhibit to this
Form 10-Q.  This report is not a "report" within the meaning of Sections 7 and
11 of the Securities Act of 1933, and the independent accountant's liability
under Section 11 does not extend to it.

       Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1994 financial statements
to conform to the classifications used in the current year.

B.   INFORMATION ON BUSINESS SEGMENTS

     The Company operates in three business segments:  home building, mortgage
lending and asset management.  A summary of the Company's segment information is
shown below (in thousands).

D.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

      Primary earnings per share are based on the weighted-average number of
common and common equivalent shares outstanding during each period.  The
computation of fully-diluted earnings per share also assumes the conversion into
MDC Common Stock of all of the $28,000,000 outstanding principal amount of the
8 3/4% convertible subordinated notes due December 2005 (the "Convertible
Notes") at a conversion price of $7.75 per share of MDC Common Stock.  The
primary and fully-diluted earnings per share calculations are shown below (in
thousands, except per share amounts).

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

                                  INTRODUCTION

     MDC is a national home builder with operations in (i) metropolitan Denver
and Colorado Springs, Colorado (collectively, "Colorado"); (ii) northern
Virginia and suburban Maryland (collectively, "Mid-Atlantic"); (iii) Northern
and Southern California (collectively, "California"); (iv) Phoenix and Tucson,
Arizona (collectively, "Arizona"); and (v) Las Vegas, Nevada ("Nevada").

     In its home building operations, the Company is engaged in the construction
and sale of residential housing (collectively, the "home building segment").  In
its mortgage origination, purchase and sale activities (collectively, the
"mortgage lending segment"), which primarily support the Company's home
building segment, HomeAmerican Mortgage Corporation (a wholly owned subsidiary
of M.D.C. Holdings, Inc., "HomeAmerican") provides mortgage loans to the
Company's home buyers and to others.

     In its asset management operations (collectively, the "asset management
segment"), Financial Asset Management Corporation (an indirect, wholly owned
subsidiary of M.D.C. Holdings, Inc., "FAMC") manages, by contract, the
operations of two publicly traded real estate investment trusts (each, a
"REIT").

                            RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The table below summarizes MDC's results of operations during each of the
periods presented (in thousands, except per share amounts).

     Revenues for the first quarter of 1995 increased 14% to $192,518,000 from
$168,693,000 during the same period in 1994 primarily due to a significant
increase in homes closed.  The Company closed 1,008 homes during the
first quarter of 1995, the highest level of first quarter home closings in the
Company's history and an 18% increase over the 854 homes closed in the same
period in 1994.

     Income before income taxes was lower in the three months ended March 31,
1995 compared with the same period in 1994 primarily as a result of lower home
building segment operating profits, partially offset by lower corporate general
and administrative expenses.  Operating profit from the Company's home building
operations for the first quarter of 1995 totalled $8,009,000 compared with
$9,313,000 for the same period in 1994.  The reduction in home building
operating profits in the first quarter of 1995 primarily resulted from a decline
in the Home Gross Margins (as hereinafter defined) to 13.8% compared with 16.1%
in the first quarter of 1994.  This decline largely was due to increased
incentives offered to home buyers in order to stimulate sales as home building
markets throughout the nation experienced slower activity in the first quarter
of 1995 than in the same period in 1994 and additional costs related to the
Company's aggressive marketing program to reduce its inventory of unsold homes
under construction.

     During the three months ended March 31, 1995, MDC earned operating and net
income of $4,068,000, or $.20 per share (primary).  This was the Company's
highest first quarter operating income


                                      -17-



since 1987 and a seven percent increase over the $3,806,000, or $.19 per share
(primary), in operating and net income for the same period in 1994.

     IMPACT OF HOME MORTGAGE INTEREST RATES.

     Beginning in 1992 through October 1993, home mortgage interest rates
declined to their lowest levels in 25 years to an average of 6.7% on a 30-year,
fixed-rate mortgage. Since October 1993, mortgage interest rates have increased
from a low of 6.7% to as high as 9.25% in December 1994 primarily as a result of
seven interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve Board.  While current
mortgage interest rates (approximately 8.4% in April 1995) are still low
compared with historical rates for the past 25 years, the general increase in
mortgage interest rates, particularly since April 1994 when rates moved above
8%, has affected adversely the Company's home building and mortgage lending
segments.

     The general increases in mortgage interest rates since October 1993 have
affected adversely, and may continue to affect adversely in the future (i)
sales of new homes and the level of Home Gross Margins; and (ii) the Company's
mortgage lending operations by substantially decreasing mortgage loan
originations for refinancing.

     The Company is unable to predict the extent to which future increases in
mortgage interest rates will affect adversely the Company's operating
activities and results of operations.

     HOME SALES REVENUES AND HOMES CLOSED AND DELIVERED.  Home sales revenues
for the three months ended March 31, 1995 were the highest first quarter home
sales revenues in the Company's history, representing an increase of 16% over
home sales revenues for the same period in 1994.  This increase primarily was
the result of increases in home closings in (i) Colorado (a 22% increase) due to
the strong backlog at December 31, 1994, favorable winter weather which enabled
the Company to finish and close a greater percentage of this backlog and an
active marketing program to sell and deliver certain unsold homes under
construction; (ii) Arizona (a 114% increase) primarily due to a significant
expansion of the Company's operations in Phoenix; and (iii) California (an 18%
increase) due to the Company's acquisition and opening of several new
subdivisions in this market, particularly in Southern California.  The
Company's Mid-Atlantic market had lower home closings in the first quarter of
1995 compared with the same period in 1994, despite an increase in the number
of active subdivisions, as strong market conditions in the first quarter of
1994 have softened during the latter part of 1994 and into the first quarter
of 1995.

     The Company increased the number of active subdivisions throughout its
markets from 105 at March 31, 1994 to 132 at March 31, 1995.  Most of the
increases in active subdivisions occurred in (i) the Mid-Atlantic market (a net
increase of 11); (ii) Arizona (a net increase of 11); and (iii) California (a
net increase of 3).

     AVERAGE SELLING PRICE PER HOUSING UNIT.  The decrease in the average
selling price per housing unit in the first quarter of 1995 compared with the
first quarter of 1994 primarily was a result of lower average selling prices in
(i) Southern California primarily due to the introduction in new subdivisions of
lower-priced homes primarily marketed to first and second-time move-up home
buyers during the latter part of 1994; (ii) Tucson primarily due to the opening
of new subdivisions which target the first-time and first-time move-up buyer;
and (iii) Colorado as the Company continues to offer lower-priced homes in
response to consumer demand.  These decreases partially were offset by increases
in average selling prices in the Mid-Atlantic and Northern California markets
principally due to the mix of homes closed.

     HOME GROSS MARGINS.  Gross margins (home sales revenues less cost of goods
sold, which primarily includes land and construction costs, capitalized
interest, a reserve for warranty expense and financing costs) as a percent of
home sales revenue ("Home Gross Margins") decreased during the first quarter of
1995 compared with the first quarter of 1994.  This decline largely was due to
increased incentives offered to home buyers in order to stimulate sales in view
of weakening conditions in home building markets throughout the nation and
additional costs related to the company's aggressive marketing program to reduce
its inventory of unsold homes under construction.  The Company believes that the


                                      -19-



weakening market conditions, increased incentives and additional costs will
result in lower Home Gross Margins in the second quarter, and possibly the third
quarter, of 1995 compared with the same periods in 1994.  In addition, increases
in, among other things, the costs of subcontracted labor, finished lots and
building materials have affected adversely, and may affect adversely in the
future, Home Gross Margins to the extent that market conditions prevent the
recovery of increased costs through higher sales prices.

     HOME SALES AND BACKLOG.  Sales for the first quarter of 1995 decreased by
17% to 1,233 homes from 1,492 homes for the same period in 1994 as the Company,
in general, experienced lower sales per active subdivision in each of its
markets in the first quarter of 1995 compared with the prior year.  Sales for
the first quarter of 1994 reflected the trend of strong sales experienced prior
to the significant increase in mortgage interest rates in April 1994.  Backlog
at March 31, 1995 was 1,559 compared with 1,334 at December 31, 1994 and 1,995
at March 31, 1994.  MDC expects approximately 70% of its March 31, 1995 Backlog
to close under existing sales contracts during the second and third quarters of
1995.

     Sales for the first quarter of 1995 compared with 1994 in Colorado declined
28% as a result of, among other things, increased competition as new competitors
entered the market and increases in mortgage rates which affected adversely the
demand for new homes.  Sales for the first quarter of 1995 compared with 1994 in
the Mid-Atlantic market declined 20% due to an overall slowing in this market
which began in the second quarter of 1994.  The overall Mid-Atlantic market
declined by approximately 19% in the first quarter of 1995 compared with the
first quarter of 1994.

     Sales increased in the first quarter of 1995 compared with 1994 in
(i) Arizona (an increase of 16%) due to an expansion of the Company's operations
in Phoenix; and (ii) California (an increase of 10%) primarily due to an
expansion of the Company's operations in Southern California.

     Sales in April 1995 increased by 17% to 427 homes compared with sales of
365 homes in April 1994.  The Company is unable to predict if this trend will
continue in the future.

     MARKETING.  Marketing expenses (which include, among other things,
amortization of deferred marketing, model home expenses and sales commissions)
totalled $11,117,000 for the first quarter of 1995 compared with $9,002,000 for
1994.  This 24% increase during 1995 principally was due to the 16% increase in
home sales revenue and expanded operations in most of the Company's major
regions.  Significant additional marketing-related salary, sales commission and
model home operation expenses were incurred to support the Company's expanded
operations.  Additionally, the Company has increased its marketing in an effort
to stimulate sales in most of its markets.

     GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  General and administrative expenses totalled
$6,395,000 during the first quarter of 1995 compared with $6,747,000 during
1994.  General and administrative expenses have decreased in the aggregate
primarily due to the Company's continuing efforts to decrease general and
administrative expenses.  General and administrative expenses as a percentage
of home sales revenues decreased to 3.5% for 1995 compared with 4.3% in 1994
as the Company was able to deliver more homes without a proportionate increase
in overhead.

  UNSOLD HOMES UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

     The Company maintains levels of unsold homes in various stages of
completion to assist it in meeting the immediate and near-term demands of its
home buyers.  The Company monitors and adjusts its


                                      -20-



levels of unsold homes under construction based on, among other factors, its
evaluation of market conditions and in anticipation of seasonal sales patterns
and weather.

     The Company in the past has offered, and may in the future offer,
incentives to assist in selling certain of its unsold homes under construction.
These incentives include buying down mortgage interest rates, offering
prospective home buyers options and upgrades at a discount and, to a
substantially lesser extent, price concessions.  The cost of these incentives is
included in the determination of the Company's Home Gross Margins.

     As with all of the Company's inventories, interest and other carrying costs
incurred with respect to the Company's unsold homes under construction are
capitalized during periods of active construction and expensed following their
completion.  In view of the Company's recent sales trends, the period of time
required to sell and close the Company's unsold homes under construction, in
some cases, may be extended.  The Company's operating income will be affected
adversely by any additional interest and other carrying costs incurred (most of
which will be expensed) with respect to these unsold homes during this extended
period.

     The Company aggressively is marketing certain unsold homes which it
considers to be in excess of its present needs and plans to continue this
program through the second quarter of 1995.  The Company has reduced the number
of unsold homes under construction at March 31, 1995 by 15% compared with the
December 31, 1994 level.  The Company is unable to predict the extent to
which its Home Gross Margins and operating income in 1995 will be affected
adversely by the incentives offered and the additional interest and carrying
costs incurred with respect to the Company's unsold homes under construction.

   LAND INVENTORY.

     The table below shows the carrying value of MDC's land and land under
development in each of its home building markets at March 31, 1995, segregated
by property acquired or optioned before 1991 ("Pre-1991") and after 1990
("Other").  The table also shows the carrying value of MDC's inactive land
inventory which is included in the total, most of which was acquired prior to
1991 (in thousands).

                              ----------    ---------    ---------    ---------


     The Company's net income and cash flow are affected adversely by the
carrying costs (e.g., interest and property taxes) associated with inactive land
inventories.  These inactive land inventories comprised approximately 27% of the
carrying value of the Company's total land and land under development at
March 31, 1995 compared with approximately 43% of the $192,881,000 carrying
value at December 31, 1993.  The decrease in inactive land inventory, most of
which occurred during 1994, is due to the commencement of development and
construction activity in certain subdivisions as well as sales of inactive land.
Carrying costs on inactive land inventories are expensed, not capitalized.  The
Company is actively pursuing opportunities to reduce, through sales or home
building activities, its inactive land inventories.

     HomeAmerican's operating profit of $2,883,000 for the first quarter of 1995
approximated the operating profit of $2,904,000 for the same period in 1994.
While loan origination fees were lower in 1995 compared with 1994, this
reduction was more than offset by a decrease in general and administrative
expenses as HomeAmerican reduced its general and administrative costs in
response to the decline in the level of its refinancing activities in its
mortgage lending operations.

     HomeAmerican's loan originations and purchases decreased by 30% in the
first quarter of 1995 compared with the same period in 1994 primarily due to
increased mortgage interest rates which resulted in a significant decrease in
refinancing activity and lower mortgage loan originations market wide.  The
decrease partially was offset by a 2% increase in the dollar amount of
originations for MDC's home buyers principally due to increased closings by
MDC's home building segment.  HomeAmerican originated mortgages for 54% of MDC's
home buyers in the first quarter of 1995 compared with 59% for the same period
in 1994.  The decline in the percentage of mortgages originated for MDC's home
buyers was the result of, among other things, increased competition for mortgage
loan originations and increases in closings in Southern California where
HomeAmerican does not have an origination facility, partially offset by
increasing mortgage loan origination percentages in Colorado and the Mid-

     FORWARD SALES COMMITMENTS.  HomeAmerican's operations are affected by,
among other things, changes in mortgage interest rates.  HomeAmerican utilizes
forward mortgage securities contracts to manage the interest rate risk on its
fixed-rate mortgage loans owned and rate-locked mortgage loans in the Pipeline.
Such contracts are the only significant financial derivative instrument utilized
by HomeAmerican.

ASSET MANAGEMENT SEGMENT.

     The following table summarizes the results of the asset management segment
operations during each of the periods presented (in thousands).

     The Company currently does not anticipate making additional mortgage-
related investments in the future.  As a result, future income from the asset
management segment substantially will be dependent on management fees earned
from two publicly traded REITs.  At March 31, 1995, the REITs had approximately
$160,000,000 in assets under management by FAMC.

OTHER OPERATING RESULTS.

     INTEREST EXPENSE.  Corporate and home building interest incurred increased
by 7.5% to $8,989,000 for the first quarter of 1995 compared with $8,364,000 for
the same period in 1994 primarily due to higher average effective interest rates
with respect to the Company's variable-rate bank lines of credit and project
loans due to higher interest rates in 1995 and higher average outstanding
borrowings during the first quarter of 1995 compared with the first quarter of
1994 to support the higher level of the Company's home building operations in
1995.

     The portion of this corporate and home building interest which was
capitalized (the Company capitalizes interest on its home building inventories
during the period of active development and through the completion of
construction) during the first quarter of 1995 totalled $6,150,000 compared with
$5,408,000 for the same period in 1994.  The increase in interest capitalized
for 1995 primarily was due to (i) increased levels of active home building
inventories resulting from expanded operations; and (ii) higher interest
capitalization rates resulting from higher average effective interest rates on
the Company's debt.

     Corporate and home building interest incurred not capitalized is reflected
as interest expense and totalled $2,839,000 for the first quarter of 1995
compared with $2,956,000 for the first quarter of 1994.

     For a reconciliation of interest incurred, capitalized and expensed, see
Note C to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

     CORPORATE GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  Corporate general and
administrative expenses totalled $3,127,000 during the three months ended March
31, 1995 compared with $3,933,000 during the first quarter of 1994.  The
decrease in the first quarter of 1995 primarily was due to a decrease in
professional fees and other expenses


                                      -23-



as the Company has continued to streamline its operations.

     INCOME TAXES.  M.D.C. Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries file
a consolidated federal income tax return (an "MDC Consolidated Return").
Richmond Homes and its wholly owned subsidiaries filed a separate consolidated
federal income tax return (each a "Richmond Homes Consolidated Return") from its
inception (December 28, 1989) through February 2, 1994, the date Richmond Homes
became a wholly owned subsidiary of MDC.

     MDC's overall effective income tax rates of 34.5% and 43.3%, respectively,
for the first quarter of 1995 and 1994 differed from the federal statutory rate
of 35%.  These differences primarily were due to, among other things, (i) the
impact of state income taxes; (ii) the realization of non-taxable income for
financial reporting purposes for which no tax liability was recorded; and
(iii) in 1994, adjustments of prior years' income taxes.

     In April 1995, the Company received approval from the Congressional Joint
Committee on Taxation regarding the Company's final agreement with the Internal
Revenue Service (the "IRS") relative to the IRS's examination of the MDC
Consolidated Returns for the years 1984 and 1985.  Also in April 1995, the
Company and the IRS reached final agreement on the IRS examinations of the
Richmond Homes Consolidated Returns for the years 1989 and 1990.  Such
agreements had no material impact upon the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

     The IRS has completed its examination of the MDC Consolidated Returns for
the years 1986 through 1990 and has proposed certain adjustments to the taxable
income reflected in such returns.  In general, the proposed adjustments would
shift the recognition of certain items of income and expense from one year to
another ("Timing Adjustments").  To the extent taxable income in a prior year is
increased by proposed Timing Adjustments, taxable income may be reduced by a
corresponding amount in other years; however, the Company would incur an
interest charge as a result of such adjustment.  The Company currently is
protesting many of these proposed adjustments through the IRS appeals process.
In the opinion of management, adequate provision has been made for the
additional income taxes and interest which may result from the proposed
adjustments.

     The IRS currently is examining the MDC and Richmond Homes Consolidated
Returns for the years 1991, 1992 and 1993.  No reports have been issued by the
IRS in connection with these examinations.  In the opinion of management,
adequate provision has been made for additional income taxes and interest which
may result from these examinations.

                         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     MDC uses its capital resources to, among other things, (i) support its
operations, including its inventories of homes, home sites and land;
(ii) provide working capital; and (iii) provide mortgage loans for its home
buyers.  Capital resources are generated internally from operations and from
external sources.

     Based upon its current financial condition and credit relationships, MDC
believes that it has, or can obtain, adequate financial resources to satisfy its
current and near-term capital requirements.  The Company believes that it can
meet its long-term capital needs (including, among other things, meeting future
debt payments and refinancing or paying off other long-term debt as it becomes
due) from operations and external financing sources.


                                      -24-



LINES OF CREDIT AND NOTES PAYABLE.

     HOME BUILDING.  MDC's home building bank lines of credit and letter of
credit facilities at March 31, 1995 aggregated $160,000,000, which represents a
substantial increase over the $70,000,000 of similar facilities at December 31,
1993.  Agreements governing $147,000,000 of the present facilities were entered
into during 1994 and the first quarter of 1995, with terms that provide for
final maturities generally from four to five years, including scheduled term-out
periods (although the term-out periods may commence earlier under certain
circumstances).  Borrowings under the bank lines of credit are collateralized by
home building inventories and are limited to the value of "eligible collateral"
(as defined in the credit agreements).  At March 31, 1995, $64,775,000 was
borrowed and an additional $76,226,000 was collateralized and available to be
borrowed under the bank lines of credit.

     MORTGAGE LENDING.  To provide funds to originate and purchase mortgage
loans and to finance these mortgage loans on a short-term basis, HomeAmerican
utilizes its mortgage lending bank line of credit (the "Mortgage Line").  These
mortgage loans are subsequently sold.  During the first quarters of 1995 and
1994, HomeAmerican sold $85,350,000 and $153,884,000, respectively, principal
amount of mortgage loans and mortgage certificates.

     The aggregate amount available under the Mortgage Line at March 31, 1995
was $51,000,000.  Borrowings under the Mortgage Line are collateralized by
mortgage loans and mortgage-backed certificates and are limited to the value of
"eligible collateral" (as defined in the credit agreement).  At March 31, 1995,
$3,490,000 was borrowed and an additional $25,320,000 was collateralized and
available to be borrowed under the Mortgage Line.  The Company also has
additional borrowing capability with available repurchase agreements.

     GENERAL.  The Company's lines of credit and notes payable require
compliance with certain covenants, representations and warranties.  Currently,
the Company believes that it is in compliance with these covenants,
representations and warranties.

     In the event that MDC's lines of credit are not renewed as they become due
or are renewed at substantially lower levels, the Company believes that it could
meet its financing requirements through a combination of internally-generated
funds and new borrowings.

CONSOLIDATED CASH FLOW.

     In the first quarter of 1995, MDC management made the decision
to lower its operating cash balances by approximately $20,000,000.  The Company
believes its present liquidity available under existing bank lines of credit
allows the Company to operate with lower operating cash balances. The Company
used this cash, together with cash generated primarily from net income, to pay
down lines of credit and notes payable by $24,518,000.  At March 31, 1995, the
Company had $23,529,000 available in cash and cash equivalents.


                                      -25-



     MDC used $20,431,000 of cash in the first quarter of 1994 primarily due to
uses of cash to pay down lines of credit and  notes payable by $17,017,000 and
cash used in Operating Activities of $7,015,000, partially offset by net cash
generated from the asset management segment's mortgage-related assets of
$3,493,000.  The net cash used in Operating Activities principally was due to
increased home building inventories, partially offset by reductions in mortgage
loans held in inventory and income from operations.

             ISSUANCE OF STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("SFAS 121").  The
Company's adoption of SFAS 121, which is anticipated in 1996, will not have a
material impact on the results of operations or financial position of the
Company in the year of adoption.

                                     PART II

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

   SETTLEMENT OF WESTERN SAVINGS CIVIL MATTERS.

     In December 1994, the Company and the Resolution Trust Corporation (the
"RTC"), acting in its corporate capacity as receiver for Western Savings and
Loan Association ("Western"), executed a final settlement agreement providing
for the mutual release of all potential claims between the parties and certain
related persons insofar as such claims relate to any of the Company's past
transactions with Western.

     Under the terms of the settlement, MDC paid to the RTC $3,912,000, which
MDC reserved (and set aside the cash) for as of December 31, 1992 when an
agreement in principle for the settlement was executed by the parties.  MDC
believes that consummation of the settlement agreement will not result in any
material adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial position.  The
settlement remains subject to the entry of a court order determining that the
settlement precludes the filing of cross-claims against MDC by various third
parties, a condition which can be waived or extended by the Company.

   EXPANSIVE SOILS CASES.

     On October 21, 1994, a complaint was served on several of the Company's
subsidiaries in an action initiated by six homeowners in Highlands Ranch,
Colorado.  On January 26, 1995, counsel for the Company accepted service of two
additional complaints by a homeowner in the Stonegate subdivision in Douglas
County, Colorado and by a homeowner in the Rock Creek development located in
Boulder County, Colorado.  The complaints, each of which seek certification of a
class action, purport to allege substantially identical claims relating to the
construction of homes on lots with expansive soils, including negligence, breach
of express and implied warranties, violation of the Colorado Consumer Protection
Act, non-disclosure and a claim for exemplary damages.  The homeowners in each
complaint seek, individually and on behalf of the alleged class, recovery in
unspecified amounts including actual damages, statutory damages, exemplary
damages and treble damages.  The Company has not as yet been required to file a
response to any of the complaints or to any discovery in these cases.  While the
ultimate outcome of these matters is uncertain, management does not believe that
the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

     The Company has notified its insurance carriers of these complaints and
currently is reviewing with the carriers how the Company will proceed.  The
insurance carriers providing primary coverage have agreed to defend the Company
in the Highlands Ranch case subject to reservations of rights.  While several of
the carriers providing primary coverage have agreed to defend the Company,
subject to reservation of rights, with respect to the matters alleged in the
two other complaints, some of the Company's other carriers as yet have not
responded to the Company's request to defend these other two complaints.

   OTHER.

     The Company and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates have been named
as defendants in various other claims, complaints and legal actions arising in
the normal course of business.  In the opinion


                                      -27-



of management, the outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse
effect upon the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

     The Company is not aware of any litigation, matter or pending claim against
the Company which would result in material contingent liabilities related to
environmental hazards or asbestos.
