Berkshire to Take Taylor Morrison Private in $8.5 Billion Homebuilder Buyout

Berkshire Hathaway will acquire Taylor Morrison Home Corporation in an all-cash deal with a total enterprise value of about $8.5 billion, paying $72.50 per share (a 24% premium to the May 29 close). Equity value is roughly $6.8 billion, and Taylor Morrison will delist from the NYSE to join Berkshire’s private portfolio. Sheryl Palmer is expected to stay on as CEO, and completion is anticipated in the second half of 2026 after shareholder and regulatory approvals. The deal expands Berkshire’s housing platform and follows Greg Abel’s leadership of the transaction, with Buffett noting Abel’s efficiency.
