The Opportunity

After more than 35 years of building homes and communities throughout Metro Atlanta and Central Georgia, Peachtree Building Group's ownership sought a strategic partner that would preserve the company's legacy while positioning the business for continued growth. The objective was to identify a buyer whose culture, operating philosophy, and long-term vision aligned with Peachtree's values while maximizing value for shareholders.

Zelman's Role

Zelman, a Walker & Dunlop company, was engaged as Exclusive Sell-Side Financial Advisor to lead a comprehensive sale process. Zelman evaluated transaction alternatives, developed valuation analyses and marketing materials, identified and engaged qualified buyers, managed due diligence, and negotiated transaction terms through closing.

Throughout the process, Zelman worked closely with Peachtree’s leadership to identify the best partner positioned to build upon Peachtree's strong reputation and established market presence.

The Outcome

The transaction culminated in Peachtree Building Group's acquisition by Eastwood Homes, a strategic combination that expanded Eastwood's footprint in the Metro Atlanta market while providing Peachtree with the resources and scale to support its next phase of growth. The acquisition represented Eastwood Homes' 11th division and further advanced its long-term expansion strategy across the Southeast. For Peachtree's ownership, the transaction achieved both strategic and financial objectives while ensuring the business would continue under a partner with a strong cultural fit.
