About Toll Brothers: America's Luxury Home Builder
Toll Brothers is a Fortune 500 company with roots going back to 1967, when brothers Bob and Bruce Toll founded the business with a commitment to quality craftsmanship and exceptional customer service. Since then, the company has grown into one of the most recognized names in residential construction, building new homes and communities across more than 60 markets throughout the United States.
The company became publicly traded in 1986, with common stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "TOL." Over the decades, Toll Brothers has earned numerous prestigious accolades, including being named #1 Most Admired Home Builder on Fortune magazine's World's Most Admired Companies list — an honor achieved nine times. They have also been recognized as Builder of the Year by both Builder magazine and Professional Builder magazine, the latter of which named them a two-time recipient of that distinction.
Toll Brothers serves a wide range of buyers, including first-time homeowners, move-up buyers, active adults, and second-home purchasers. Their portfolio spans distinctive architectural styles, prestigious locations, and an unrivaled range of personalization options designed to help buyers create a home they will truly love.
The Toll Brothers Home Building Process
Building a new home with Toll Brothers typically takes between 6 to 12 months on average, though timelines can vary by region and community. The process is structured around five key phases:
- Choose — Select a community, home design, and home site. Complete financing steps, decide on architectural elements, sign the Sales Agreement, and make a deposit.
- Design — Visit the Design Studio to personalize interior, exterior, and home technology selections with the help of Design Consultants and specialized partners.
- Build — Attend a Construction Kick-Off Meeting, receive weekly updates from the team, and participate in a room-by-room Home Orientation guided by the construction team.
- Get Ready — Finalize financing, learn about warranty coverages and the Customer Care Program, attend closing, and receive the keys.
- Live — Move in and enjoy ongoing care and maintenance support.
For those who need to move sooner, Toll Brothers also offers quick move-in homes — properties that are either under construction or already complete. These homes reduce the overall build timeline while often still allowing buyers to select many final fixtures and finishes. Buyers can search for quick move-in homes by location directly through the Toll Brothers website.
Personalization, Design, and Community Options
One of the hallmarks of the Toll Brothers experience is the ability to personalize a new home to suit individual tastes and lifestyles. Their Design Studio gives buyers access to a wide range of options for interiors, exteriors, and home technology. For those who prefer a more streamlined approach, Designer Appointed Collections offer nine expertly curated interior design packages with cohesive, luxurious finishes — inspired by model homes and crafted by professional designers.
Toll Brothers architects create home designs specifically tailored to each region, taking into account local style preferences, topography, climate, energy requirements, and building codes. As a result, home designs from one region cannot be transferred to another — each market offers its own unique selection of thoughtfully crafted options.
Each Toll Brothers home comes with a strong set of included features that vary by design and community, encompassing gracious living spaces, designer interiors, magnificent kitchens, and spa-like bathrooms. Optional structural and design upgrades are also available for buyers who wish to further personalize their new home.
Toll Brothers also offers decorated model homes for sale in many communities, subject to availability. Whether building from the ground up or purchasing a move-in ready home, buyers are supported throughout the process by both Online and Onsite Sales Consultants.
