Century Communities announced the opening of Glacier Pointe, a new single‑family‑home neighborhood within its 4,700‑acre Tehaleh planned community in Bonney Lake, Washington. The grand opening will take place on Saturday, May 16 and Sunday, May 17, with tours of a brand‑new Quinn model home and a full slate of community amenities available to prospective buyers.
Glacier Pointe homes feature upscale options such as chef‑style kitchens, three‑bay garages, and designer‑selected finishes, with prices starting in the $800,000 range. The community offers panoramic views of Mount Rainier, more than 40 miles of trails, and a range of amenities designed for both everyday comfort and weekend adventure, positioning it as a high‑quality, affordable option in a desirable Pacific Northwest market.
The launch is part of Century Communities’ strategy to expand its presence in the Pacific Northwest and to provide high‑quality, affordable homes in desirable locations. The company’s online home‑buying platform allows buyers to shop 24/7 and secure financing through its Inspire Home Loans subsidiary, streamlining the purchase process and appealing to buyers seeking convenience and transparency.
Earlier this year, Century Communities reported Q1 2026 results that highlighted the company’s resilience amid market headwinds. Net income fell to $24.4 million from $39.4 million in Q1 2025, and revenue declined to $789.7 million from $903.2 million, reflecting higher interest rates and weaker consumer sentiment. Despite the revenue drop, earnings per share of $0.84 beat the consensus estimate of $0.51, a gain driven by lower incentives and direct costs that helped preserve margins. Management noted that traffic and net sales increased sequentially, and the first‑quarter cancellation rate was below 2025 levels, indicating sustained buyer commitment.
The company’s guidance for 2026 reflects cautious optimism. Full‑year delivery guidance was reduced by 5% to 9,500–10,500 homes, and home‑sales revenue guidance was lowered to $3.5–$3.8 billion, signaling concern over macroeconomic pressures. Century Communities maintains a strong balance sheet with $2.6 billion in stockholders’ equity and $886 million in liquidity, and it has continued share repurchases and dividend increases. "We performed well in the first quarter given continued market pressures which intensified even further beginning in early March," said Executive Chairman Dale Francescon. "Despite these headwinds, our traffic and net sales increased sequentially throughout the quarter, and our first‑quarter cancellation rate was below the levels we experienced throughout most of 2025, demonstrating the commitment of buyers once they have made the decision to purchase a home," added CEO and President Rob Francescon.
The Glacier Pointe launch underscores Century Communities’ commitment to delivering high‑quality homes in attractive locations while navigating a challenging housing market. The new neighborhood adds a premium product line to the company’s portfolio and supports its broader strategy of expanding in the Pacific Northwest, where demand for well‑situated, feature‑rich homes remains strong despite broader market headwinds.
