Gehan Homes Announces Name Change to Brightland Homes
Gehan Homes consolidated three of its homebuilding brands under one unified brand – Brightland Homes, effective March 21. The renaming integrated approximately 110 active communities from Gehan Homes, Gray Point Homes and Wonderland Homes brands across Texas, Arizona, Colorado and Tennessee.
The company, founded in 1994, sold a 51 percent interest to Sumitomo Forestry America in 2014 and since then appointed John Winniford as President and CEO. Under his leadership, the company expanded into four additional markets, acquired two homebuilding companies and has grown to the 13th-largest private homebuilder in the U.S.
