We are excited to announce that effective September 30, 2024, Covington Homes has entered into a strategic partnership with Empire Communities, one of North America’s largest privately held homebuilders, allowing us to leverage the scale and efficiencies of a national homebuilder who shares our commitment to bringing quality homes to the Colorado market.
Empire believes that successful growth comes from partnering with those who offer local expertise and a dedication to excellence. Covington Homes embodies these qualities, and together, we will enhance the homebuying experience in Colorado — one of America’s fastest-growing markets — and continue to build thriving communities.
This partnership further diversifies and expands Empire’s presence in the U.S. to 8 markets, including Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Atlanta, Chattanooga, Charlotte, Greenville, and now Colorado Springs.
Empire Communities is a fully vertically integrated homebuilder involved in all aspects of the homebuilding and sales process. Celebrating over 30 years as one of North America’s largest privately held homebuilders, Empire builds and develops in over 100 intown and suburban communities across Toronto, Southwestern Ontario, Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina, targeting primarily entry-level and move-up buyers with attainable product offerings.
Since its inception in 1993, Empire has built over 35,000 new homes and condos, representing close to $15B in housing sales. The Canadian-based homebuilder currently has a strategic land position representing more than 25,000 potential future homesites in the planning, development and/or construction phase.
As a valued homeowner, we recognize the trust you have placed in us to deliver a quality home. With Empire, you can be assured that your home will be built with the same care, construction timelines, and attention to detail. Your Covington Homes community team will continue to support you, ensuring a smooth transition, and your home warranty will remain fully active, with all terms, conditions, and standards of service unchanged. Grace and Ron Covington will continue to oversee all operations in the Colorado market with the same dedication they’ve always shown — to their team, homeowners, and trade partners — while continuing to honor the relationships they have built over the years.
Our company name will change to Empire Communities with plans in place to transition to the Empire brand in 2025.
