For decades, they guided the company through industry downturns and challenges, consistently adapting and ultimately thriving. American Homestar is a leader in our industry because it embodies the Teeters’ values and focus on providing quality homes for deserving families. We at Cavco are grateful for their trust and are excited to join forces in the South Central U.S."

American Homestar's President and CEO Dwayne Teeter commented, "Founded by my father, Buck Teeter, in 1971, American Homestar focused on providing high-quality, affordable housing while also fostering a stable and rewarding work environment for its employees. As we enter this exciting new alliance with Cavco, we know this combination is a perfect cultural fit and that our people will be part of a dynamic, growing company, well positioned to compete in an ever-changing environment. We thank Bill Boor and the entire Cavco team for their interest in American Homestar and their commitment to making this transaction happen."
