Century Communities announced the launch of Cottonwood Place, a new Century Complete community in Tabor City, North Carolina, on November 11 2025. The development offers single‑ and two‑story homes with prices starting in the $200,000 range, targeting first‑time buyers and families seeking affordable, move‑in‑ready options.

Cottonwood Place features five floor plans that include stainless‑steel appliances, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and granite countertops. Buyers can browse, finance, and purchase homes entirely online through Century’s industry‑first digital platform, a key part of the company’s strategy to streamline the buying experience and reduce transaction costs.

The community’s location provides quick access to Myrtle Beach—approximately 39 miles north of Tabor City—making it an attractive option for residents who want coastal amenities without the higher price tags of the beach itself. The company highlighted the convenience of major highways and the short travel time to the beach as a selling point.

Century’s expansion into the Southeast aligns with its broader goal of growing market share in 16 states and over 45 markets. The company’s Q3 2025 earnings showed a strong performance, with revenue of $980.28 million and an adjusted gross margin of 20.1%. Management cited a 3% reduction in construction costs and a 5% increase in community count, underscoring the company’s focus on operational efficiency and scale.

The launch of Cottonwood Place comes at a time when Century’s guidance for full‑year 2025 home deliveries—between 10,000 and 10,250 units—remains robust. The company’s emphasis on affordable housing, coupled with its online sales platform, positions it to capture demand in a market where mortgage rates are high and buyers seek cost‑effective options.
