NVHomes was founded in 1979 in McLean, Virginia, positioning itself as the premium builder for the Washington DC metro's growing professional class. The brand merged under NVR in 1987, becoming the company's luxury flag.
Through the 2000s-2020s NVHomes grew with the DC metro's wealth expansion, building estate-style single-family homes and luxury townhomes in Fairfax, Loudoun, and Montgomery counties and extending into other Mid-Atlantic markets where premium positioning supports higher margins.
The brand's product runs from move-up townhomes to estate homes in the $600,000 to $1.5 million-plus range, all built on NVR's efficient development model.
