Is It Safe to Buy Home Builders?

Home Builder Stock #1 – NVR (NVR)

NVR (NVR) is probably the healthiest of all the major home builders. In fact, the company hasn’t taken a single annual loss yet. The company
reported a quarterly loss for the fourth quarter of 2008, but all of the other quarters have recorded a profit.

Even though NVR is a fairly small company (market value of nearly $4 billion), the stock carries a very high price. The shares are currently over
$660 a piece, which is even higher than Google. I know that scares off a lot of individual investors, but I urge you to overcome your fears.

Even
if you only pick up a few shares, NVR is a solid buy.
