The Colony

Scott Felder Homes, founded in 2008, is a privately held homebuilding company headquartered in Austin, Texas. The company specializes in constructing move-up single-family homes across Central Texas and Colorado, with operations in Austin, San Antonio, New Braunfels, and Denver through its subsidiary McStain Neighborhoods. In 2014, Scott Felder Homes was acquired by BR Homebuilding Group and is currently backed by Platform Ventures, a private equity firm focused on real estate operating companies. The company’s core business strategy centers on delivering energy-efficient, customizable homes in master-planned communities with strong school districts and desirable amenities. Its portfolio targets the mid-to-upper price range, typically between $275,000 and $1,000,000, catering to move-up buyers seeking quality construction and design flexibility. Scott Felder Homes emphasizes geographic diversification within high-growth markets, recently expanding into the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex through the acquisition of Olivia Clarke Homes in May 2025. This move aligns with its strategy to strengthen its presence in Texas’ fastest-growing regions while maintaining a foothold in Colorado. Top markets include Austin, San Antonio, and Denver, with Dallas-Fort Worth emerging as a new growth hub. The company sold approximately 470 homes in 2024, ranking 73rd among U.S. private homebuilders.
