     File No. 333-62467

Dear Mr. Duvall:

         We  transmit  herewith  Amendment  No.  4  to  the  above  registration
statement  in reply to your letter of  comments  dated  November  17,  1998.  In
addition to the responses to your comments,  several corrections have been made.
The numbered  responses in this letter  correspond  to the numbered  comments in
your letter.

         1.  A new risk factor has been added with the caption "Effect of Cash 
             Flow on Acquisitions."

         2. The change  regarding the American Stock  Exchange  listing has been
made.  Although the Exchange has given informal  approval,  the official  notice
cannot be issued at this time. The Exchange found the symbol WHN unavailable and
several new symbols have been submitted for approval.

         3. A statement  has been added to the Year 2000  paragraph in MD&A that
the Company does not own any buildings or equipment with imbedded non-technology
and does not believe that the Year 2000  compliance is a problem with respect to
non IT issues.  A statement has also been added to the last  paragraph  that the
Company does not have a formal  contingency  plan but  believes  that it will be
able to find adequate  alternative  suppliers if one of its principal  suppliers
would not be able to deliver its supplies.

         4. The  American  Metro/Study  was not prepared  specifically  for this
prospectus  but the  Company  uses  American  Metro/Study  in its  business  and
American  Metro/Study  checked some of the information  after it was drafted and
provided other information at the Company's  request.  Support for the statement
regarding  Dallas/Fort Worth rising home values and annual new homes starts rate
is attached hereto.

         5.  Affordable  is a non profit  corporation  organized  to provide tax
shelter  and to help low income  buyers  with down  payments on homes they would
purchase  from  the  Company.  This  was  never  implemented;  Affordable  never
conducted any business and no membership interests were ever issued. The Company
paid Affordable $75,000 for management fees in 1994;  Affordable then loaned the
$75,000 back to the Company.  The Company then advanced  Affordable funds to pay
federal income and state franchise taxes. Even though Affordable is a non profit
corporation,  it was required to pay federal income taxes because the income did
not  qualify as non  taxable  for the  purposes  for which the  corporation  was
organized. None of the Company's officers directors, their family members or any
affiliated  person has an interest in Affordable  and ever received  anything of
value from  Affordable.  The  substance  of this  information  is in the Certain
Relationships section.

         6. The Warrants to be issued to Joe Garza,  Company counsel, are deemed
to be exempt from registration pursuant to section 4(2) of the Securities Act as
a  transaction  not  involving a public  offering.  Mr.  Garza is counsel to the
Company and participated in the preparation of the registration  statement,  may
be  considered  a  sophisticated  investor  in that he has  knowledge  about the
Company and its financial  affairs and has previously  made similar  investments
involving  restricted  securities.  He has  agreed  to  take  the  warrants  and
underlying  shares  for  investment  and not  with a view to  distribution.  The
Warrants, when issued, will be marked with a restrictive legend and a stop order
on the shares  issuable  upon  exercise of the warrants  will be placed with the
transfer agent..

         We are filing a Form 8-A for registration  under the 1934 Act to become
effective   concurrently  with  the  principal   registration   statement.   The
underwriters  have set a tentative  effective  date of December 8, 1998.  If you
have any  additional  comments or questions  please let me know. If not, we will
provide a request for acceleration.


                                                              Very truly yours,



                                                              Joe B. Garza

By Steve Brown

               Area preowned home prices surge to record $122,200
             Dallas figures soar 9.7% vs. nationwide increase of 6%


The Dallas area continues to outpace the nation in home sales prices  increases,
according to the latest comparison of preowned home sales.


During the second quarter,  the median sale price of a preowned Dallas-area home
rose to a record $122,200. That's up 9.7 percent from a year earlier,  according
to the National Association of Realtors.


Nationwide home prices increased 6 percent during the same period.


     The  Washington-based  real estate trade group tracks  housing sales in 132
major U.S. markets to come up with its quarterly price comparison.


The Dallas area has seen  substantial  increases in home sales prices during the
last year because of the region's strong economy and a lack of housing inventory
on the market.


While a slower U.S. economy might cool housing demand later this year and reduce
price  increases,  most analysts are betting that the housing  market around the
country will remain relatively strong.


"People still feel pretty good about their jobs and consumer sentiment is high -
as long as that is the case, it will support the housing  market," said John Hea
of Dallas-based Southwest Securities.


Nationwide,   preowned   home  sales  rose  by  more  than  16  percent  in  the
second-quarter  compared  with the same period of 1997.  In Texas,  home resales
surged by 31.1 percent, according to the Realtors Association.


Most of Texas'  housing  markets  enjoyed  healthy  increases in  second-quarter
preowned home sales prices.


     Along with  Dallas' 9.7 percent rise in sales  prices,  Ft. Worth saw a 9.1
percent increase with a median housing cost of $99,300.
Houston home resale prices were up 8.1 percent to $97,900.


Among all the markets the National  Association  of Realtors  surveyed,  the two
cities  with the  biggest  home  price  increases  were  both in the  Southeast.
Charleston,  S.C.,  saw a  19.6  percent  jump  in  median  home  prices  and in
Bradenton, F.A., preowned home prices rose 16.5 percent.


     Only nine metropolitan areas saw second-quarter  home sales price declines.
The worst was 5.4 percent drop in Trenton, N.J.





               The article continues with impertinent information.

notice,  provided  that the closing  price  quotation  for the Common  Stock has

circumstances. See "Description of Securities."

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

         The following summary is qualified in its entirety by, and must be read
in conjunction  with, the more detailed  information  and financial  statements,
including  the notes  thereto  appearing  elsewhere in this  Prospectus.  Unless
otherwise indicated,  all information in this Prospectus assumes (i) no exercise
of  the   Warrants,   the   Representative's   Over-allotment   Option  and  the
Representative's  Warrant and (ii) consummation of the  Reorganization  prior to

Relationships and Related Transactions."

                                   The Company

   The  Company  was  organized  in August  1998 to acquire all of the assets of
Woodhaven Homes, Ltd. (Woodhaven Ltd.") and all of the outstanding capital stock
of Resland  Development  Corp.  ("Resland")  from Richard D. Laxton,  Phillip R.
Johns and Mark V. Johns,  who will  continue as officers  and  directors  of the
Company.  Immediately prior to the closing of this offering  Woodhaven Ltd. will
exchange all of its assets for Common  Stock of the Company and Messrs.  Laxton,
Johns and Johns will  exchange all of the  outstanding  capital stock of Resland
owned by them for Common Stock of the  Company.  The Company will own the assets
and succeed to the business of Woodhaven  Ltd. and Resland will be operated as a
wholly-owned  subsidiary of the Company.  The Company began  business in 1992 as
Woodhaven  Homes,  LLC,  a Texas  limited  partnership  and,  under  Texas  law,
converted to Woodhaven Ltd., a Texas limited  partnership in September 1997. All
references  herein to the  "Company" or  "Woodhaven"  refer to Woodhaven  Homes,
Inc.,  Woodhaven Homes, Ltd. and Woodhaven Homes, LLC. See "The  Reorganization"
and "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."

         The  Company  designs,  builds  and  sells  single-family  homes in the
Dallas/Fort  Worth  metropolitan  area,  with a focus on the  "entry  level" and
relocation  market  segments.  Typically,  homes range in size from 1,186 square
feet to over 3,000 square feet and range in price from $67,950 to $238,000, with
an average sales price of $104,000 for homes closed during 1997. The Dallas/Fort
Worth  market  has  experienced  population  and job growth  above the  national
average over the last several years.  The Company operated in 17 subdivisions in
the  metropolitan  area,  and had 204 homes under  construction  at December 31,
1997. The Company is also actively  engaged in residential  land acquisition and
development,  which enables it to provide lots for its homebuilding  operations.
At December 31, 1997, the Company owned or had under option  contract 1,366 lots
available for future growth.

      The  Company's  homebuilding  operation  is  positioned  to  compete  with
high-volume  builders  by  offering  a  broader  selection  of homes  with  more
amenities  and  greater  design  flexibility  than  typically  offered by volume
builders.  The Company offers the homebuyer the ability to select various design
features in accordance with his personal preferences.  Through a volume building
approach  the  Company's  custom  homes  generally  offer  more value than those
offered by local,  lower-volume custom builders,  primarily due to the Company's
effective  purchasing,  construction and marketing  programs.  While most design
modifications   are  significant  to  the  homebuyer,   they  typically  involve
relatively  minor  adjustments  that allow the Company to maintain  construction
efficiencies and result in greater  profitability  due to increased sales prices
and margins.  The Company believes that its ability to meet the design tastes of
prospective  homebuyers at competitive prices  distinguishes itself from many of
its competitors.

      Subcontractors  perform virtually all of the Company's  construction work.
The Company's  construction  superintendents  monitor the  construction  of each
home,  coordinate the activities of  subcontractors  and suppliers,  subject the
work of subcontractors to quality and cost controls and monitor  compliance with
zoning and building codes.  Subcontractors  typically are retained pursuant to a
contract  that  obligates  the  subcontractor  to  complete  construction  in  a
workmanlike manner that provides standard indemnifications and warranties.

      Consistent  with  historical  experience,  95% of the homes in  backlog at
December  31,  1997 were  closed by June 30,  1998.  Based upon  dollar  volume,
contract cancellations were less than 10% of the home sales contracts signed and
started during each of 1995, 1996 and 1997.  Although  cancellations can disrupt
anticipated home closings,  the Company believes that cancellations have not had
a material  negative impact on operations or liquidity of the Company during the
last several years.  The Company  attempts to reduce  cancellations by reviewing
each homebuyer's ability to obtain mortgage financing early in the sales process
and by closely  monitoring the mortgage approval  process.  The Company seeks to
maximize  its  return on  capital  and limit its  exposure  to  changes  in land
valuation by obtaining options to purchase lots whenever  feasible.  The Company
will also directly acquire,  where appropriate,  quality residential  properties
that are in high demand for use in its  homebuilding  operations and for sale to
third-party builders.

      The Company was  organized  in 1992 in the state of Texas.  The  executive
offices of the Company are located at 2501 Oak Lawn,  Suite 550,  Dallas,  Texas
75219,  and its telephone  number is (214)  599-1999 and its fax number is (214)
599-9205.

                                                THE REORGANIZATION

   
         The Company was  organized  in August 1998 to acquire  from  Richard D.
Laxton,  Phillip R. Johns and Mark V. Johns all of the assets of Woodhaven Ltd.,
all of the outstanding  capital stock of WH Management,  Inc. ("WH Management"),
the corporate  general  partner of Woodhaven  Ltd.,  and all of the  outstanding
capital stock of Resland in exchange for  2,000,000  shares of its Common Stock.
The  exchange  is  intended  to  qualify  as  a  tax-free   reorganization  (the
"Reorganization")  pursuant to Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
The exchange will be consummated immediately prior to the effective date of this
offering and the Company  will acquire from Richard D. Laxton,  Phillip R. Johns
and Mark V. Johns all of the assets (and all of the stock of WH Management)  and
succeed  to  the  business  of  Woodhaven  Ltd.  and  will  acquire  all  of the
outstanding  capital stock of Resland,  which will be operated as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company.  In the past, Resland has been used by Woodhaven Ltd.
as an  off-balance  sheet  corporation  to buy and  sell  residential  lots  for
development. The lots were sold primarily to Woodhaven Ltd., but occasionally to
other home builders.  The Company  expects to continue to utilize Resland to buy
and hold its lots for development.  Richard D. Laxton, Phillip R. Johns and Mark
V.  Johns,  the limited  partners of  Woodhaven  Ltd.  and sole  managers of its
business  (through  ownership of WH  Management)  will  continue as officers and
directors of the Company. The terms of the reorganization,  including the values
assigned  to the assets of  Woodhaven  Ltd.,  Resland  and  Common  Stock of the
Company to be  exchanged  were  determined  in  negotiations  between  the three
principals of Woodhaven Ltd. and the Representative of the Underwriters.
    


     In connection with the Reorganization, the Company will distribute $700,000
to the three  limited  partners of  Woodhaven  Ltd.  for payment of income taxes
applicable to Woodhaven Ltd's. income from operations.  The distribution will be
made to allow  Richard D. Laxton,  Phillip R. Johns and Mark V. Johns to pay the
individual  income taxes they owe on their shares of Woodhaven Ltd's.  earnings.

General Real Estate, Economic and Other Conditions

         The  homebuilding  industry  is  significantly  affected  by changes in
national and local economic and other conditions,  including  employment levels,
availability  of financing,  interest  rates,  consumer  confidence  and housing
demand. The homebuilding  industry historically has been susceptible to cyclical
economic  conditions,  and consumer demand for housing  generally lessens during
economic  downturns.  The possibility of reduced  consumer demand as a result of
changing general economic  conditions,  in turn, increases the risks inherent to
homebuilders in purchasing and developing  large tracts of land, since they must
purchase and develop land  significantly in advance of the sale of any homes. In
addition,  homebuilders  are subject to various risks,  many of them outside the
control of the homebuilder, including competitive overbuilding, availability and
cost of building lots,  availability  of materials and labor and adverse weather
conditions  which can cause delays in  construction  schedules,  cost  overruns,
changes in  government  regulation  and increases in real estate taxes and other
local government fees.

Dependence Upon Key Personnel

         The Company's  success is largely  dependent on the skills,  experience
and performance of certain key members of its management, including particularly
Richard D. Laxton, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Phillip Johns and Mark
Johns, President and Vice President,  respectively.  The loss of the services of
any of these key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business,  financial  condition  and results of  operations.  The Company has no
employment  contracts.  The Company's  future  success and plans for growth also
depend on its  ability to attract,  train and retain  skilled  personnel  in all
areas of its  business.  Although  the  Company  has  agreed to  obtain  key-man
insurance in the face amount of $3,000,000 on the life of Mr. Laxton,  there can
be no assurance  that such amount will be sufficient  to compensate  the Company
for the loss of his services. See "Management."

Competition

         Builders of new homes  compete not only for home  buyers,  but also for
desirable  properties,  financing,  raw materials and skilled labor. The Company
competes  with other local,  regional and  national  homebuilders,  occasionally
within larger subdivisions designed, planned and developed by such homebuilders.
Some of the Company's  competitors have greater  financial,  marketing and sales
resources than the Company.

         The Company  believes that a competitive  challenge facing it in all of
its present markets is locating and acquiring  undeveloped land suitable for the
types of communities  that it can profitably  develop.  Although the Company has
been  successful in the past in locating and  developing  such tracts within its
present markets,  there can be no assurance that this success will continue.  If
the Company expands the geographic  scope of its business to new markets,  there
can be no assurance  that the Company will be successful  in acquiring  suitable
land for development in such markets. See "Business - Competition."

Voting Control by Management

         Upon completion of this offering, the Company's officers and directors,
will own approximately  66.7% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company. As
a result,  these  shareholders  will be able to control  the vote on all matters
submitted to shareholders,  including the election of directors. However, if the
over-allotment option and all warrants and options were exercised, the Company's
officers and directors would own  approximately  40% of the  outstanding  Common
Stock and would not be able to  control  the vote on all  matters  submitted  to
shareholders. See "Principal Shareholders."

Integration of Acquisitions

         A material  element of  Woodhaven's  growth  strategy  is to expand its
existing  business  in the Texas area and, in the  future,  in other  geographic
markets. This expansion may be made through internal growth or through strategic
acquisitions.   The  Company  is  currently  evaluating  opportunities  to  make
strategic  acquisitions,  although it has no present  commitments  or agreements
with respect to any material  acquisitions.  There can be no assurance  that the
Company will be able to identify  and acquire such  companies or that it will be
able to  successfully  integrate  the  operations  of any companies it acquires.
Further, any acquisition may initially have an adverse effect upon the Company's
operating  results  while the acquired  businesses  are  adopting the  Company's
management  and  operating  practices.  The  Company  may use a  portion  of the
proceeds of this  offering  as well as bank  borrowing  and the  issuance of its
stock as  consideration  for  acquisitions.  There can be no assurance  that the
Company  will be able to  establish,  maintain or increase  profitability  of an
entity once it has been acquired.  Also, if Woodhaven  does not have  sufficient
cash resources for any acquisition, its growth could be limited. There can be no
assurance  that  Woodhaven  will be able to obtain  adequate  financing  for any
acquisition,  or that, if available,  such financing will be on terms acceptable
to Woodhaven.  The consent of the Company's  primary lenders will be required to
be  obtained  in  order  to  consummate  such  acquisitions.  See  "Management's
Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial  Condition  and Results of  Operations -
Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Business -Strategy."

   
Effect of Cash Flow on Acquisitions

         The  Company's  lack of  positive  cash flow may  adversely  affect its
ability to make any acquisitions.  The Company produced cashflow from operations
of ($512,991)  for the nine months ended  September 30, 1998,  and cashflow from
operations of  ($3,593,961),  ($2,398,955) and ($3,233,672) for the fiscal years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  However, the Company will
not rely  solely  upon cash flow for its  acquisitions.  The  Company  may use a
portion of the  proceeds  of this  offering  as well as bank  borrowing  and the
issuance  of its  stock  as  consideration  for  acquisitions.  There  can be no
assurance  that  the  Company  will  be  able  to  make  any  acquisitions.  See
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Business -Strategy."
    

Offering to Increase Value of Current Shareholders Holdings

         The current shareholders of the Company acquired their shares of Common
Stock at a cost per share  substantially  less  than  that at which the  Company
intends to sell its Common  Stock  included  in the Units.  Consummation  of the
offering  will  result in a  substantial  increase  in the value of the  current
shareholders'  holdings and a resulting dilution in the price paid by the public
shareholders. See "Dilution."

Government Regulations and Environmental Concerns

         The housing  industry and the Company are subject to increasing  local,
state and Federal statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations concerning zoning,
resource  protection  (preservation of woodlands and hillside  areas),  building
design,  construction and similar  matters,  including local  regulations  which
impose restrictive zoning and density  requirements in order to limit the number
of residences that can eventually be built within the boundaries of a particular
location.   Such   regulation   affects   construction   activities,   including
construction  materials that must be used in certain aspects of building design,
as well as sales activities and other dealings with consumers.  The Company must
also obtain certain  licenses,  permits and approvals from various  governmental
agencies for its  development  activities,  the granting of which are beyond the
Company's  control.  Furthermore,  increasingly  stringent  requirements  may be
imposed on  homebuilders  and  developers  in the future.  Although  the Company
cannot  predict  the  impact  on  the  Company  of  compliance   with  any  such
requirements,  such  requirements  could result in time  consuming and expensive
compliance  programs.  See "Business-  Government  Regulation and  Environmental
Matters."

Representative's Experience.

   
     The  Representative   does  not  have  substantial   experience  in  public
offerings.   Tejas  Securities  Group,  Inc.  has  managed  and  completed  four
firm-commitment  public offerings of equity  securities in the past nine months.
Principals of the Representative,  however,  have had substantial  experience in
connection with public offerings of equity securities. There can be no assurance
that the  Representative's  lack of  experience  will not  adversely  affect the
offering. See "Underwriting."
    

Business Concentration

         The  Company's  operations  are focused in the North  Texas  area.  The
Company intends to expand operations  within this market by entering  additional
communities and subdivisions. The Company is continually reviewing potential lot
acquisition and development opportunities,  which may take as long as one or two
years to finalize.  The Company has allocated $2,000,000 of the proceeds of this
offering to payments for the equity portion of lot  acquisition  and development
and may expend such amounts within six to nine months from the date hereof.  The
Company has operated  successfully  in its current  market,  but there can be no
assurance that the stability of this market or the Company's  favorable  results
will continue.  Adverse general economic  conditions in this market could have a
material adverse impact upon the operations of the Company. The Company also may
expand into new geographic markets,  which could reduce the Company's dependence
on its existing market.  The risks for expansion outside the Company's  existing
market include  significant  start-up costs, the hiring of additional  personnel
and developing new supplier and subcontractor relationships.

Absence of Prior Public Market - American Stock Exchange Listing

   
         Prior  to this  offering,  there  has  been no  public  market  for the
Securities.  The  Company  has  applied  for  listing of the  Securities  on the
American Stock  Exchange.  There can be no assurance that the Company's  listing
application  will be  approved.  Such  listing,  if  approved,  does not  imply,
however,  that a meaningful,  sustained  market for the Common Stock or Warrants
will develop.  There can be no assurance  that an active  trading market for the
Securities offered hereby will develop or, if it should develop, will continue.
    

Risk of Redemption of Warrants

         Commencing twelve months from the date of this Prospectus,  the Company
may redeem the  Warrants for $.05 per  Warrant,  provided  that the closing sale
price of the Common Stock on the American  Stock Exchange has been at least $___
(200% of the offering  price per unit) for ten  consecutive  trading days ending
within  fifteen days of the notice of  redemption.  Notice of  redemption of the
Warrants could force the holders  thereof:  (i) to exercise the Warrants and pay
the exercise price at a time when it may be disadvantageous or difficult for the
holders to do so, (ii) to sell the  Warrants at the  current  market  price when
they  might  otherwise  wish to hold  the  Warrants,  or  (iii)  to  accept  the
redemption  price,  which will be less than the market  value of the Warrants at
the time of the redemption. See "Description of Securities - Warrants."

Investors May Be Unable to Exercise Warrants

         For the life of the Warrants,  the Company will use its best efforts to
maintain a current effective registration statement with the Commission relating
to the shares of Common Stock  issuable upon  exercise of the  Warrants.  If the
Company  is unable to  maintain a current  registration  statement  the  Warrant
holders  would be unable to exercise  the  Warrants  and the Warrants may become
valueless.  Although  the  Underwriters  have agreed to not  knowingly  sell the
Warrants in any  jurisdiction  in which the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise  of the  Warrants  are not  registered,  exempt  from  registration  or
otherwise qualified,  a purchaser of the Warrants may relocate to a jurisdiction
in  which  the  shares  of  Common  Stock  underlying  the  Warrants  are not so
registered  or qualified.  In addition,  a purchaser of the Warrants in the open
market  may  reside  in a  jurisdiction  in which the  shares  of  Common  Stock
underlying the Warrants are not registered,  exempt or qualified. If the Company
is unable or chooses not to register or qualify or maintain the  registration or
qualification  of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants for sale in
all of the states in which the Warrant  holders  reside,  the Company  would not
permit such  Warrants to be  exercised  and Warrant  holders in those states may
have no choice but to either sell their Warrants or let them expire. Prospective
investors and other interested persons who wish to know whether or not shares of
Common Stock may be issued upon the exercise of Warrants by Warrant holders in a
particular  state should consult with the securities  department of the state in
question or send a written inquiry to the Company.  The Company will applied for
listing of the Warrants and the  Underlying  Common Stock on the American  Stock
Exchange  which  provides an exemption  from  registration  in most states.  See
"Description of Securities Warrants."

Arbitrary Determination of Offering Price

         The public  offering  price for the Units offered hereby was determined
by negotiation  between the Company and the  Representatives,  and should not be
assumed to bear any  relationship  to the  Company's  asset value,  net worth or
other  generally  accepted  criteria of value.  Recent  history  relating to the
market prices of newly public  companies  indicates that the market price of the
Securities following this offering may be highly volatile. See "Underwriting."

Immediate Substantial Dilution

   
         The  Company's  current  shareholders  acquired  their shares of Common
Stock at a cost  substantially  below the price at which  such  shares are being
offered in this offering. In addition,  the initial public offering price of the
shares of Common Stock included in the Units being offered in this offering will
be  substantially  higher than the current book value per share of Common Stock.
Consequently,  investors purchasing shares of Common Stock included in the Units
being offered in this offering will incur an immediate and substantial  dilution
of their  investment of approximately  $6.04 per share or  approximately  60.40%
insofar  as it  relates  to the  resulting  book  value of  Common  Stock  after
completion of this offering. See "Dilution."
    

Payment of Dividends

         The Company has never paid cash dividends on the Common Stock, and does
not  anticipate  that it will  pay cash  dividends  in the  foreseeable  future.
However,  the Company has made cash distributions to partners and members of the
limited  liability  company for the purpose of paying federal income taxes.  The
payment of  dividends  by the  Company  will depend on its  earnings,  financial
condition  and such other  factors as the Board of  Directors of the Company may
consider relevant. The Company currently plans to retain any earnings to provide
for the development and growth of the Company. See "Dividend Policy."

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

         Upon completion of this offering,  the Company's  current  shareholders
will own 2,000,000  shares of Common Stock,  which will  represent  66.7% of the
then issued and outstanding  shares of Common Stock (63.5% if the over-allotment
option is exercised in full).  The shares held by the current  shareholders  are
"restricted  securities"  as that term is defined  in the Rules and  Regulations
under the  Securities  Act, and as such, may be publicly sold only if registered
under the  Securities  Act or sold  pursuant  to an  applicable  exemption  from
registration, such as that provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

         The shares held by the current  shareholders,  will not be eligible for
sales  under  Rule 144 for at least  one year  from the  effective  date of this
Prospectus.  The current  shareholders have agreed with the Representative  that
they will not sell or otherwise dispose of their shares for a period of one year
after the date of this  Prospectus  without  the prior  written  consent  of the
Representative.  Sales  of  significant  amounts  of  Common  Stock  by  current
shareholders in the public market after this offering could adversely affect the
market  price of the Common  Stock.  See "Shares  Eligible  for Future Sale" and
"Principal Shareholders."

Use of Proceeds for Unspecified Acquisitions

         The Company may utilize a portion of the net proceeds of this  offering
for the purpose of  acquisitions,  joint  ventures  and other  similar  business
opportunities.  Under  Texas law,  transactions  of this  nature do not  require
shareholder approval except when accomplished through a merger or consolidation.
Accordingly, purchasers in this offering will necessarily rely to a large degree
upon the judgment of  management  of the Company in the  utilization  of the net
proceeds of this offering applied to acquisitions. The Company does not now have
any agreements or  commitments  with respect to any specific  transactions,  and
management  has not  established  specific  criteria  to be used in  making  the
determination as to how to invest these proceeds. See "Business-Strategy."

Shares of Common Stock Reserved Under Stock Option Plan

         The Company has reserved 300,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance to
key employees,  officers,  directors and  consultants  pursuant to the Company's
Stock Option Plan.  To date no options have been granted  under the Stock Option
Plan. The existence of these options and any other options or warrants may prove
to be a hindrance  to future  equity  financing  by the  Company.  Further,  the
holders of such  options  may  exercise  them at a time when the  Company  would
otherwise be able to obtain additional equity capital on terms more favorable to
the Company. See "Management - Stock Option Plan."

Effect of Outstanding Warrants and Underwriters' Warrants.

         Until the date five years  following the date of this  Prospectus,  the
holders of the Warrants and  Underwriters'  Warrants are given an opportunity to
profit  from a rise in the market  price of the Common  Stock,  with a resulting
dilution in the interests of the other shareholders. Further, the terms on which
the  Company  might  obtain  additional  financing  during  that  period  may be
adversely affected by the existence of the Warrants and Underwriters'  Warrants.
The holders of the Warrants and Underwriters' Warrants may exercise the Warrants
and  Underwriters'  Warrants at a time when the Company  might be able to obtain
additional  capital through a new offering of securities on terms more favorable
than  those  provided  herein.  The  Company  has  agreed  that,  under  certain
circumstances,  it will  register  under federal and state  securities  laws the
Underwriters'  Warrants and/or the securities issuable  thereunder.  Exercise of
these registration  rights could involve substantial expense to the Company at a
time when it could not afford such  expenditures  and may  adversely  affect the
terms  upon  which  the  Company  may  obtain  financing.  See  "Description  of
Securities" and "Underwriting."

Representatives' Influence on the Market
         A significant  amount of the  Securities  offered hereby may be sold to
customers  of the  Representative.  Such  customers  subsequently  may engage in
transactions  for the sale or  purchase of such  Securities  through or with the
Representatives. Although it has no obligation to do so, the Representatives may
otherwise effect  transactions in such  securities.  Such market making activity
may be  discontinued  at any  time.  If  they  participate  in the  market,  the
Representatives may exert a dominating influence on the market, if one develops,
for the Securities described in this Prospectus.  The price and the liquidity of
the  Securities  may be  significantly  affected by the  degree,  if any, of the
Representatives' participation in such market.


         In  addition,  the  Company  has  agreed to  solicit  exercises  of the
Warrants  solely  through  the  Representatives  and to pay the  Representatives
certain  compensation in connection  therewith.  Solicitation of the exercise of
the  Warrants  by the  Representatives  will not be made  during the  restricted
periods of Regulation M under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
See "Description of Securities-Warrants" and "Underwriting."

                                                  USE OF PROCEEDS

         The net proceeds of this  offering to the  Company,  are expected to be
approximately  $8,500,000  ($9,850,000 if the over-allotment option is exercised
in full),  assuming an initial public  offering price of $10.00 per Unit,  after
deducting the  Underwriters'  discount and $500,000 of expenses  relating to the
offering,  including the Underwriters'  non-accountable  expense  allowance.  No
value has been  assigned  to the  Warrants  included  in the Units.  The Company
intends to use the net proceeds as follows:


                                                       Amount       Percent

                                                     ==========     ======
- ----------
(1) At June 30, 1998 the Company had  approximately  $13.2 million of short-term
construction  and  lot  loans  outstanding  to ten  banks  and  other  financial
institutions  at interest  rates  ranging  from 9% to 10.5%  which  mature in 12
months or less from  issuance.  The  Company  will pay off the loans and smaller
lines of credit that bear the highest interest rates.

(2)  The Company intends to pay $700,000 to the Company's shareholders,  Richard
     D.  Laxton,  Mark V.  Johns  and  Phillip  R.  Johns  to pay  taxes  due in
     connection with the termination  and merger of Woodhaven  Homes,  Ltd. into
     the  Company.  See  "The  Reorganization",   "Management's  Discussion  and
     Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results of  Operations,"  and "Certain
     Relationships and Related Transactions."

(3)  The Company may also use as much as  $2,000,000  of the net  proceeds  from
     this offering to take advantage of future business opportunities as part of
     its expansion plans, although it has not identified any specific businesses
     it intends to acquire and has not entered into negotiations with respect to
     any acquisitions.

         Pending  application of the net proceeds of this offering,  the Company
may  invest  such net  proceeds  in  interest-bearing  accounts,  United  States
Government obligations,  certificates of deposit or short-term  interest-bearing
securities.


                                                  DIVIDEND POLICY

         The Company has operated as a limited  liability  company and a limited
partnership  and has made  cash  distributions  to the  partners  of $0 in 1996,
$335,445  in 1997 and  $225,000  for the six  months  ended June 30,  1998.  The
Company does not anticipate  paying dividends on the Common Stock at any time in
the  foreseeable  future.  The  Company's  Board of  Directors  plans to  retain
earnings for the development and expansion of the Company's business.  The Board
of Directors also plans to regularly review the Company's  dividend policy.  Any
future determination as to the payment of dividends will be at the discretion of
the Board of  Directors  of the  Company and will depend on a number of factors,
including future earnings,  capital  requirements,  financial condition and such
other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

                                                     DILUTION


         As of September  30, 1998,  the net tangible  book value of the Company
was  $3,367,593 or $1.68 per share of Common Stock.  The net tangible book value
of the Company is the  aggregate  amount of its  tangible  assets less its total
liabilities. The net tangible book value per share represents the total tangible
assets of the Company,  less total  liabilities  of the Company,  divided by the
number of shares of Common Stock  outstanding.  After  giving  effect (i) to the
sale of  1,000,000  Units  (1,000,000  shares  of  Common  Stock  and  1,000,000
Warrants) at an assumed  offering  price of $10.00 per Unit, or $10.00 per share
of Common Stock (no value assigned to the Warrants), and (ii) the application of
the estimated net proceeds therefrom,  the pro forma net tangible book value per
share would increase from $1.68 to $3.96. This represents an immediate  increase
in net  tangible  book value of $2.28 per share to current  shareholders  and an
immediate dilution of $6.04 per share to new investors or, 60.40% as illustrated
in the following table:

</TABLE>

Comparison of the Nine months Ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1998

         Net sales for the nine month period ended  September 30, 1998 increased
by 53.4% to $35.2  million  from $22.9  million for the nine month  period ended
September 30, 1997. The higher level of sales  reflects the increased  marketing
efforts  initiated  in 1997 as the  Company  added  new  salespeople  and  sales
centers.  These efforts resulted in a higher level of inventory of homes in late
1997 that were subsequently  closed during the first half of 1998. Revenues also
benefited from an increase in the average sales price of a home to $109,174 from
$103,257.  The  majority  of the sales  increase  was due to an  increase in the
number of homes sold during the period as the Company  sold 322 homes versus 222
in the prior period.  The increase in average sales price  provided  $591,700 of
the sales increase during the period. See "Business-Backlog."

         Gross  profit  for the nine  month  period  ended  September  30,  1998
increased to $4.9  million from $3.0 million for the same period in 1997.  Gross
margin  increased by 0.8% to 14.0% from 13.2%.  The increase in gross profit and
gross margin was primarily due to increased  sales combined with lower financing
costs. The Company experienced a decrease in its borrowing costs as evidenced by
lower  interest  rates  in its  bank  agreements.  Interest  costs  incurred  on
construction  indebtedness  (secured by specific  real estate  inventories)  are
capitalized  until  completion of  construction.  Interest  costs incurred after
completion of construction  and interest  incurred on  non-construction  related
indebtedness are expensed.

         General and  administrative  expense increased by 52.2% to $3.2 million
from $1.7  million for the nine month  period  ended  September  30,  1997.  The
increase was  primarily due to the addition of several  management  positions to
support  the  Company's   growth.   As  a  percentage  of  sales,   general  and
administrative  expense was relatively flat reflecting  management's strategy to
add personnel in relation to sales growth.

         Interest expense  decreased to $118,774 for the nine month period ended
September  30,1998  compared to $283,299  for the same period in the prior year.
The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a lower inventory of homes
waiting to be sold that have to be financed by the  Company.  In  addition,  the
Company had previously owned their model homes and financed them with bank debt.
Beginning  in  1997,  the  Company  started  leasing  the  model  homes  from an
unaffiliated  third party that eliminated the interest  expense  associated with
owning  them.  Leasing  expense is recorded on the  financial  statements  under
Selling, General and Administrative Expense.

         Net earnings for the nine months ended  September 30, 1998 increased to
approximately  $2.2 million from $1.0 for the nine month period ended  September
30, 1997.  The increase in net  earnings  was  primarily  due to the increase in
sales,  improvement  in gross margin and reduction in interest  expense as noted
above.



Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1997

         Net  sales for the year  ended  December  31,  1997  increased  by $7.7
million,  or 30.6%,  to $33.0 million from $25.3 million for the prior year. The
increase was  primarily  due to increased  marketing  efforts by the Company and
general  improvement in real estate conditions in the Company's markets.  During
the year,  the Company  increased the number of sales centers from eight in 1996
to fifteen in 1997. Further, the number of salespeople was increased to eighteen
from twelve.  The majority of the sales increase  during the year was due to the
increase in the number of homes sold as the Company  closed 320 homes during the
year compared to 270 in the prior year. Revenues also benefited from an increase
in the average sales price of a home to $104,000 from $94,000 in the prior year.
The increase in average sales price per home contributed $500,000 to the overall
increase in sales during the year.

         Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 1997 increased by 79.7% to
$4.4 million from $2.5 million in the prior year. Gross margin increased 3.7% to
13.5% from 9.8%. These  improvements  reflect an increase in the average selling
price of homes sold by the Company combined with a reduction in financing costs.

         Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  for  the  year  ended
December 31, 1997 increased by approximately $938,000, or 54.8%, to $2.6 million
from $1.7 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to increased
marketing expenses in the form of advertising and maintenance of model homes. In
addition, the Company increased employee benefit expenditures by adding a health
insurance program and retirement plan.

         Interest  expense for the year ended  December  31, 1997  increased  to
approximately  $326,000 from $226,000 in the prior year.  The increase  resulted
from differences in the amount of construction  interest  capitalized during the
periods.

         Net income increased to approximately  $1.4 million for the fiscal year
end  December 31, 1997 from  $511,000 in the prior year,  an increase of 177.4%.
The increase in net income  reflects the increase in sales with  correspondingly
lower  increases  in cost of  sales  and  selling,  general  and  administrative
expenses.

Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1996

         Net sales for the year ended  December  31, 1996  increased by 65.7% to
$25.3  million from $15.2  million for the year ended  December  31,  1995.  The
majority  of the sales  increase  was due to an  increase in the number of homes
sold during the year as the Company sold 270 homes versus 172 in the prior year.
Revenues also benefited from an increase in the average sales price of a home to
$93,000 from $87,000 in the prior year.  The increase in average sales price per
home contributed $588,000 to the overall increase in sales during the year.

         Gross  profit for the year ended  December  31, 1996  increased to $2.5
million from $1.6 million from 1995.  The increase in gross profit was primarily
due to the higher  revenue  base.  For the year ended  December 31, 1996,  gross
margin was 9.8%  compared to 10.8% for the year ended  December  31,  1995.  The
decline in gross margin was  primarily  due to the  reclassification  of certain
expense items that were not included in cost of sales in the prior year.

         General and  administrative  expense  declined to $1.7  million for the
year ended  December 31, 1996 from $1.8 million for the year ended  December 31,
1995.  As a percentage  of sales,  general and  administrative  expense was 6.8%
compared to 11.6% in the prior year.  The decline in general and  administrative
expense was primarily due to the  reclassification of certain expense items that
were no longer  included in general and  administrative  expense for the current
year.

         Interest  expense  increased by $194,000 to $226,400 for the year ended
December 31, 1996 from $32,000 in the prior year. The increase was primarily due
to the increase in the number of homes sold by the Company that required funding
before they were closed.

         Net  earnings  for the year  ended  December  31,  1996  were  $511,000
compared to a loss of  ($157,000)  for the year ended  December  31,  1995.  The
increase was primarily due to the higher level of sales.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company has financed its working capital  requirements  through the
use of bank debt,  notes payable from  shareholders,  and capital leases.  As of
September  30,  1998,  the  Company had  working  capital of $2.8  million and a
working  capital  ratio  of 1.2  times.  Current  assets  consist  primarily  of
inventories of lots and homes prior to being completed and closed.

         Because of the capital  intensive nature of the homebuilding  business,
borrowings  from banks and other financial  institutions  constitute the primary
financing vehicle for the Company.  Such borrowings are typically short term and
are  secured  by homes and lots.  They are  repaid as the  individual  homes are
closed. Bank borrowings contain no significant restrictions and bear interest at
rates of 8.5% to 12.0%.

         Cash used in  operations  for the nine months ended  September 30, 1998
was  approximately  $513,000  compared to $2.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. The decrease in cash used in operations was primarily due to
the increase in cash received from customers reflecting the higher revenue base.
This amount was offset by the  increase in cash paid to suppliers to support the
increase in sales.  The Company also spent $120,000 for the purchase of property
and  equipment.  The cash used in operations and investing was provided by notes
payable of approximately $900,000 during the year.

         Cash used in  operations  for the fiscal year end December 31, 1997 was
approximately  $3.6 million  compared to $2.4 million for the same period in the
prior year. The increase in cash used in operations was due primarily to (i) the
internal  financing  of the  growth in sales as  reflected  by the  increase  in
accounts  receivable  and (ii) an  increase in  inventory  to support the higher
revenue  base.  The cash used in  operations  was  provided by notes  payable of
approximately  $1.2 million and inventory  loans of  approximately  $4.0 million
during the year.

         Cash used in operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 was
approximately  $2.4 million compared to $ 3.2 million for the same period in the
prior year.  The  reduction in cash used in  operations  was  primarily due to a
reduction  in  inventory  combined  with  improvement  in  accounts   receivable
collections.  The cash used in operations was provided by capital  contributions
by management of $200,000  combined with  inventory  loans and notes payables of
approximately $2.8 million during the year.

         The Company believes that the net proceeds from this offering,  the use
of bank borrowings and leases, and anticipated revenue from operations should be
adequate for the Company's  working capital  requirements over the course of the
next twelve months. In the event that the Company's plans or assumptions  change
or if its requirements to meet unanticipated  changes in business  conditions or
the proceeds of this offering prove to be insufficient to fund  operations,  the
Company could be required to seek additional financing prior to such time.

The Reorganization

         The Company was  incorporated in August 1998 to acquire from Richard D.
Laxton, Phillip R. Johns and Mark V. Johns, all of the assets of Woodhaven Ltd.,
all  of  the  outstanding  capital  stock  of WH  Management,  and  all  of  the
outstanding  capital stock of Resland in a tax-free  reorganization  pursuant to
Section 351 of the  Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986.  The Company  will issue to
Messrs. Laxton, Johns and Johns 2,000,000 shares of its Common Stock in exchange
for all of the assets of Woodhaven Ltd. and all of the outstanding capital stock
of WH  Management  and  Resland.  This  transaction,  which will be  consummated
immediately  prior to the effective date of this  Prospectus,  will be accounted
for  similar  to  a  pooling  of  interests  with  the  transferred  assets  and
liabilities  being recorded at their  historical  cost basis.  The only expected
impact on operations  resulting from the transaction is expected to be corporate
income tax expense attributable to the Company's earnings. Previously,  earnings
were taxed under a partnership structure, and going forward they will be subject
to the standard  corporate income tax rate of  approximately  35%. In connection
with the  Reorganization,  the  Company  will  distribute  $700,000 to the three
partners of Woodhaven  Ltd. for payment of income taxes  applicable to Woodhaven
Ltd's. income from operations. The distribution will be made to allow Richard D.
Laxton,  Phillip R. Johns and Mark V. Johns to pay the  individual  income taxes
they owe on their shares of Woodhaven Ltd's. earnings. See "The Reorganization,"
"Use  of  Proceeds",   "Certain  Relationships  and  Related  Transactions"  and
Principal Shareholders."


Year 2000

   
         The Company conducted a review of its computerized systems to determine
how its systems  would be affected by the Year 2000  issues.  Additionally,  the
Company is assessing  certain  third parties with which the Company has material
relationships,   particularly  lenders,  suppliers,  sub-contractors  and  title
companies,  to determine  their  compliance  with Year 2000 issues.  The Company
intends to obtain  confirmation  that all such third parties are or will be Year
2000 compliant. The Company believes that such confirmation will be completed by
March 31, 1999.  The Company leases its office space and does not own buildings,
equipment  or machinery  with  embedded  technology  and  accordingly,  does not
believe that  non-information  technology is a factor in the Company's Year 2000
compliance.
    

         The Company's  primary system  hardware and software  package have been
reviewed by IBM, Renaissance Systems, Inc.,(an IBM business partner) and Systems
Analyses,  Inc., the Company's software developer. As of June 30, 1998, and as a
result of such  review,  the Company  purchased  at a cost of $32,000 the latest
upgrade of the  "HomeBuilder"  software which has been certified by the software
developer to be Year 2000  compliant.  Further,  the Company has ordered new IBM
hardware  (A/S  400) and  operating  software  at a cost of  $40,000,  including
installation,  all of  which  will be  certified  as Year  2000  compliant.  The
upgraded  software and new  hardware is expected to be installed  and tested for
compliance by December 31, 1998. See "Business-Management Information Systems."

         The foregoing costs represent  approximately  50% of the Company's 1998
budget for  information  technology  and these costs will be paid out of working
capital  and  charged  to  income  over  a  three  year  period.  No  additional
significant costs are anticipated and no other information  technology  projects
have been deferred as a result of Year 2000.

   
     With respect to outside  parties which could affect the Company's  business
because of Year 2000 issues,  the Company believes that the most likely problems
would arise because of isolated instances of shortages of supplies. However, the
Company's  suppliers  are major  businesses  which it believes will be Year 2000
compliant.  The Company has not developed a formal contingency plan but believes
there are  adequate  alternative  suppliers  which the Company  could use in the
event that one of its  suppliers  was unable to provide  supplies  needed in its
operations. At worst, the Company believes that there would only be a short-term
problem causing a temporary disruption of business.
    

Accounting Standards

         The Financial Accounting  Standards Board ("FASB")  periodically issues
statements  of  financial  accounting  standards.  In April  1997,  FASB  issued
Statement of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 128. The new standard
replaces  primary and fully  diluted  earnings  per share with basic and diluted
earnings per share.  The Company has adopted FASB 128 and has restated all prior
periods  presented  to comply with this  standard.  The  adoption did not impact
reported earnings per share.

         In June  1997,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  130 and 131.  SFAS No.  130
establishes  standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
components.  SFAS No. 131  establishes  standards for reporting  about operating
segments,  products and services,  geographic  areas, and major  customers.  The
standards  became  effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Management  believes  that  provisions  of SFAS No.  130 and 131 will not have a
material effect on its financial condition or reported results of operation.

         In February 1998, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
132, Employers'  Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement  Benefits -
An Amendment of FASB  Statements  No.  87,88,  and 106. This  Statement  revises
employers' disclosures about pension and other post retirement benefit plans. It
does not change the  measurement  or  recognition  of those  plans.  Rather,  it
standardizes the disclosure  requirements for pensions and other  postretirement
benefits to the extent practicable,  requires additional  information on changes
in the benefit  obligations  and fair values of plan assets that will facilitate
financial  analysis,  and  eliminates  certain  disclosures  that are no  longer
useful.  This  Statement  became  effective  for fiscal  years  beginning  after
December 15, 1997 and the Company believes it will not have a material effect on
its financial condition or results of operations.

         In August 1998, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued SFAS
133,  Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities.   This
statement, which applies to all entities,  requires derivative instruments to be
measured at fair value and  recognized  as either assets or  liabilities  on the
balance sheet.  The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June
15,  1999 with  earlier  application  encouraged  but  permitted  only as of the
beginning  of  any  fiscal  quarter  beginning  after  June  1998.   Retroactive
application is  prohibited.  The Company does not believe this statement will be
applicable to its financial condition or its results of operations.

                                                     BUSINESS

General

      The  Company  designs,   builds  and  sells  single-family  homes  in  the
Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area. This market has experienced  population and
job growth above the national  average over the last several years.  The Company
operated in 17 subdivisions in this  metropolitan  area, and had 204 homes under
construction  at December  31,  1997.  The Company is also  actively  engaged in
residential land  acquisition and development,  which enables it to provide lots
for its homebuilding operations.  At December 31, 1997, the Company owned or had
under option contract 1,366 lots available for future growth.

      The Company offers high-quality homes, designed principally for the "entry
level" and relocation market segments. Typically, homes range in size from 1,186
square  feet to over  3,000  square  feet and  range in price  from  $67,950  to
$238,000, with an average sales price of $104,000 for homes closed during 1997.

      The  Company's  homebuilding  operation  is  positioned  to  compete  with
high-volume  builders  by  offering  a  broader  selection  of homes  with  more
amenities  and  greater  design  flexibility  than  typically  offered by volume
builders.  The Company gives the homebuyer the ability to select  various design
features  in  accordance  with  their  personal  preferences.  Through  a volume
building  approach the Company's  custom homes  generally  offer more value than
those  offered by local,  lower-volume  custom  builders,  primarily  due to the
Company's effective purchasing,  construction and marketing programs. While most
design  modifications  are significant to the homebuyer,  they typically involve
relatively  minor  adjustments  that allow the Company to maintain  construction
efficiencies and result in greater  profitability  due to increased sales prices
and margins.  The Company believes that its ability to meet the design tastes of
prospective  homebuyers at competitive prices  distinguishes itself from many of
its competitors.

Strategy

      The Company's  objective is to provide its customers with homes that offer
both  quality  and value,  while  seeking  to  maximize  its return on  invested
capital.  Management  believes that a balanced and disciplined  approach to home
construction,  land  purchases  and  marketing  is  essential  to the  Company's
anticipated  growth.  To achieve  this  objective,  the Company has  developed a
strategy that focuses on the following elements:

      Growth Markets.  The Company's  primary market has experienced  population
      and job growth in excess of the  national  average  over the past  several
      years.   The  Company   believes   that  there  are   significant   growth
      opportunities  in this market.  The Company also continues to evaluate new
      markets that have significant "move-up" and relocation segments that would
      satisfy the Company's profitability, investment return and other criteria.
      While the  Company  anticipates  entering  new markets  primarily  through
      start-up operations, it will also consider the acquisition of homebuilding
      companies  that  have  complementary  management  styles.  Entry  into new
      markets is preceded by extensive due  diligence and research  conducted by
      management.  The Company currently has no specific markets or acquisitions
      under consideration for expansion.  Initially, it may be expected that the
      Company will expand into new communities and  developments  adjacent to or
      near the Company's current area of operations.

      Centralized  Purchasing.  The Company utilizes  centralized  purchasing to
      leverage its  purchasing  power into volume  discounts,  a practice  which
      reduces costs,  ensures  timely  deliveries and reduces the risk of supply
      shortages  due to  allocations  of materials.  The Company has  negotiated
      favorable  price  arrangements  with high  quality  national  and regional
      suppliers  for  appliances,  heating and air  conditioning,  counter tops,
      bathroom fixtures,  roofing and insulation products,  floor coverings, and
      other housing  components.  Major materials,  such as lumber,  sheet rock,
      concrete  and  brick  are  also  centrally   purchased  to  obtain  volume
      discounts.   There  are  no  minimum   purchase   requirements  for  these
      arrangements.

      Cost  Management.  The Company controls its overhead costs by centralizing
      administrative  and  accounting   functions,   eliminating  the  need  for
      redundant   functions  at  the  community   level.  The  Company  controls
      construction  costs  through  the  efficient  design  of its  homes and by
      obtaining favorable pricing, where possible,  from subcontractors based on
      the high  volume of work  performed  for the  Company.  The  Company  also
      controls its warranty costs through  quality control that ensures that the
      home  has been  totally  finished  prior  to the  buyer  moving  in,  thus
      enhancing  customer  satisfaction.  The Company  controls its  advertising
      expenses through sophisticated budgeting of expenses with extensive review
      of all expenditures. Some of the Company's major suppliers and contractors
      also contribute  advertising  dollars for special promotions of houses and
      products.  These campaigns feature the key suppliers' products and enhance
      the image of the Company's homes through brand  recognition.  In addition,
      the  Company  seeks to  better  manage  its  corporate  overhead  costs by
      utilizing  the  Homebuilder  software  package  written  specifically  for
      production homebuilders. See "-Management Information Systems."

      Limited Real Estate Exposure.  The Company seeks to maximize its return on
      capital and limit its  exposure to changes in land  valuation by obtaining
      options to purchase lots whenever feasible. The Company will also directly
      acquire,  where appropriate,  quality  residential  properties that are in
      high  demand  for  use in its  homebuilding  operations  and  for  sale to
      third-party  builders.  The  Company's  executive  management  establishes
      targeted  levels  of lot  options  and land for  development  based on its
      strategic plan for the overall growth of the Company.  The Company targets
      properties  for  acquisition  that are both suitable for its  homebuilding
      product and in locations that are  anticipated to maintain the homebuyers'
      property  values.  The Company believes this strategy  improves  inventory
      turnover  and enables the Company to develop and dispose of the  developed
      lots  typically  within two to three  years.  The Company does not acquire
      land that is not suitable for lot development and residential construction
      and does not  speculate on land values by  acquiring  and holding land for
      resale or for future development.

         The Company seeks to limit its exposure to real estate  inventory risks
by (i) closely  monitoring  its unsold  inventory  of new homes and the stage of
completion of homes under  construction on an ongoing basis,  (ii)  centralizing
control for the start of new homes and (iii) closely monitoring local job market
and demographic trends,  housing preferences and related economic  developments,
such as new job opportunities, local growth initiatives and trends in work force
median income levels.


Markets

      The Company  conducts  homebuilding  activities in the  Dallas/Fort  Worth
metropolitan area. The Company plans to focus its development  activity based on
the following factors, among others:  regional economic conditions,  job growth,
land  availability,   the  local  land  development  process,  consumer  tastes,
competition  from other builders of new homes and secondary home sales activity.
The  statistical  information  presented  below has been  compiled  by  American
Metro/Study Corporation from a number of public sources.

      Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas. The combined Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area
      (the  "Metroplex")  exceeded 4.5 million in total population in 1997. With
      an employment  base of more than 2.3 million jobs, the metroplex has added
      between  80,000 and  130,000  jobs  annually  during  1994 to 1997 (a 4.5%
      annual growth rate) which ranks it number 1 in the nation.  This growth is
      partially  attributable to the emergence of the "Telecom  Corridor," a new
      center for  high-technology  communication  companies,  Dallas,  Ft. Worth
      International  Airport the worlds busiest,  and Alliance Airport region, a
      hub for the  manufacturing  and  service  industries  in Fort  Worth.  The
      Metroplex  has  positioned  itself as an  attractive  market for corporate
      relocations  and  expansions  due to the relatively low cost of living and
      ease of  accessibility  to the  Metroplex.  The  single-family  market  in
      Dallas/  Fort Worth is  characterized  by rising  home  values in a market
      which has grown to a new homes start  annual rate of 25,000 units per year
      over the period 1994 to 1997.

      The Company has  positioned  itself to  increase  its market  share in the
      Dallas/Fort Worth market,  as this area continues its economic  expansion.
      The  Company was first  established  in 1992 and is  achieving  the image,
      brand  awareness  and improved lot position,  which the Company  believes,
      will support its continued expansion in this market.

Backlog

     At  December  31,  1997,  the  Company's  backlog  was  $19,589,583,  which
consisted of 198 homes.  At June 30, 1998,  the backlog was  $31,135,171,  which
consisted of 274 homes.  Backlog  represents home purchase  contracts which have
been  executed and for which earnest money  deposits  have been  received.  Home
sales are not  recorded  as  revenues  until the  closings  occur.  Sales  value
represents the product of the number of homes for which earnest money  contracts
have been received multiplied by the contract sales price for each home. Backlog
does not include speculative homes.

      Consistent  with  historical  experience,  95% of the homes in  backlog at
December  31,  1997 were  closed by June 30,  1998.  Based upon  dollar  volume,
contract cancellations were less than 10% of the home sales contracts signed and
started during each of 1995, 1996 and 1997.  Although  cancellations can disrupt
anticipated home closings,  the Company believes that cancellations have not had
a material  negative impact on operations or liquidity of the Company during the
last several years.  The Company  attempts to reduce  cancellations by reviewing
each homebuyer's ability to obtain mortgage financing early in the sales process
and by closely monitoring the mortgage approval process.

Land Policies and Position

     The Company  provides lot  positions  for its  homebuilding  operations  by
acquiring lot options and by purchasing  land for the  development of lots. When
appropriate,  developed lots are  occasionally  sold to third-party  builders to
increase inventory turnover and to enhance earnings for the Company.

Design

     The  Company's  home  designs  and floor  plans  are  prepared  by  outside
architects  in each of the  Company's  markets to appeal to the local tastes and
preferences of the community. The Company's design department has the capability
to change its standard  floor plans to  accommodate  the  individual  homebuyer.
While most design modifications are significant to the homebuyer, they typically
involve  relatively  minor  adjustments  that  allow  the  Company  to  maintain
construction  efficiencies and result in greater  profitability due to increased
margins.  The design department also verifies that each floor plan will fit on a
particular  lot  before  construction  begins.  To  contain  costs,  the  design
department  periodically  alters the Company's most popular floor plans, so that
they remain current with design trends, product updates and consumer tastes.

Construction

     Subcontractors  perform virtually all of the Company's  construction  work.
The Company's  construction  superintendents  monitor the  construction  of each
home,  coordinate the activities of  subcontractors  and suppliers,  subject the
work of subcontractors to quality and cost controls and monitor  compliance with
zoning and building codes.  Subcontractors  typically are retained pursuant to a
contract  that  obligates  the  subcontractor  to  complete  construction  in  a
workmanlike manner that provides standard  indemnifications and warranties.  The
subcontractor is paid on a per unit basis which fluctuates depending on the size
of the home.  Typically,  the Company works with the same subcontractors in each
city. The Company's  subcontractors are not subject to any collective bargaining
agreements.  While the Company  competes with other  homebuilders  for qualified
subcontractors,  it has established long-standing relationships with many of its
subcontractors.  To date,  by  providing  both timely  payments  and steady work
assignments,  the Company has not experienced any inability to obtain  qualified
subcontractors.

     The  Company's  purchasing  and cost  accounting  practices are designed to
facilitate construction  flexibility.  This process permits homebuyers to modify
their  designs,   while  allowing  the  Company  to  monitor  and  maintain  its
profitability.  Construction  time for the  Company's  homes depends on weather,
availability  of labor,  materials and supplies and other  factors.  The Company
typically completes the construction of a home within four to five months.

     The  Company  does not  maintain  inventories  of  construction  materials.
Typically,  the  construction  materials  used in the Company's  operations  are
readily  available  from  numerous  sources.  The  Company has  favorable  price
arrangements  or contracts with suppliers of certain of its building  materials,
but it is not under any specific purchasing  requirements.  In recent years, the
Company  has not  experienced  any  significant  delays in  construction  due to
shortages of materials or labor.

Marketing and Sales

         The Company markets and sells its homes through commissioned employees.
Approximately  forty  percent (40%) of such sales are made in  cooperation  with
independent real estate brokers. The Company targets both first-time home buyers
and  the  relocation  market  segments  and  employs   sophisticated   marketing
techniques to attract  potential  home buyers through its Internet  website,  as
well as print and radio  advertising.  Home sales are typically  conducted  from
sales offices  located in furnished  model homes used in each  sub-division.  At
December 31, 1997,  the Company owned and/or leased 15 model homes.  The Company
sales personnel  assist  prospective  buyers by providing them with floor plans,
pricing information,  tours of model homes and the selection of option and other
custom features. These sales and marketing personnel are kept informed as to the
availability of financing, construction schedules, and marketing and advertising
plans.  In addition to using model homes,  the  speculative  homes built in each
home division enhance the Company's marketing and sales activities.  Speculative
homes  are  attractive  to  real  estate  brokers  who  need  homes  to  show to
prospective  buyers  and to buyers who do not want to wait for  completion  of a
contract  home.  Construction  of these  speculative  homes is also necessary to
satisfy  the  requirements  of  relocated  personnel,  some  move-up  buyers and
independent  brokers,  who often represent homebuyers requiring a completed home
within sixty days.  Approximately  eighty percent (80%) of the speculative homes
were sold while under  construction in 1997. The number of speculative homes the
Company builds in any given  subdivision is influenced by local market  factors,
such as new  employment  opportunities,  significant  job  relocations,  growing
housing  demand and the length of time the Company  has built in the market.  At
December 31, 1997,  the Company was  operating  in seventeen  subdivisions.  The
ratio of pre-sold homes to  speculative  homes under  construction  is typically
approximately  75%  pre-sold  to 25%  speculative.  The  Company  advertises  in
newspapers  and  in  real  estate  and  mortgage  broker  company  publications,
brochures,  newsletter and billboards. Because real estate brokers are important
to sales, the Company  sponsors  realtor  luncheons and other events to increase
awareness of the Company's subdivisions and products.

         Sales of the Company's  homes generally are made pursuant to a standard
sales contract. The contract includes a financing contingency, which permits the
customer  to cancel in the  event  mortgage  financing  at  prevailing  rates is
unattainable  within a specified  period,  typically four to six weeks,  and may
include other  contingencies  such as the sale of an existing  home. The Company
includes a home sale in its backlog  upon  execution  of the sales  contract and
receipt of the initial  down  payment.  The Company does not  recognize  revenue
until  the home is  closed  and  title  passes  to the  homebuyer.  The  Company
estimates that the average period between  execution of the sales contract for a
home and closing is approximately five months for pre-sold homes.

Customer Financing

     In February  1998, WH  Management  entered into a  participation  agreement
styled as a joint venture named  Trendsetters  Mortgage with The GM Group,  Inc.
Trendsetters Mortgage underwrites, originates and sells mortgages for homebuyers
referred by the Company.  The mortgages are funded by Trendsetters  Mortgage and
the Company's  capital is not at risk in  connection  with this  agreement.  The
agreement was entered into to provide  Woodhaven  Ltd. with a source of mortgage
financing  for buyers of its homes,  a practice  customary  in the  homebuilding
industry.  WH Management  contributed  $510 and The GM Group  contributed  $490,
establishing a 51-49% division of "profits." Under the agreement,  Woohaven Ltd.
refers home buyers seeking mortgaging  financing to The GM Group, which provides
all services and funding for the mortgage loan, including  screening,  paperwork
and closing.  WH Management  provides no capital, no personnel and has no assets
at risk.  The  agreement is  non-exclusive  and either party may deal with other
lenders and builders.  WH  Management  receives 51% of the net fees and discount
points on each loan  after  deducting  a $400 loan  officer  expense.  Since the
agreement became effective in February, it was several months before it could be
implemented.  At September 30, 1998, WH  Management  had received  approximately
$24,000  under the  agreement.  The  Company  will  succeed  to WH  Management's
position in the reorganization.

Management Information Systems

         The primary  application  software  for the Company is the  HomeBuilder
software  package  from  Systems   Analysis,   Inc.  This  package  was  written
specifically for production homebuilders and operates on an IBM AS/400 computer.
The HomeBuilder software package is a fully integrated accounting package, which
has general ledger, accounts payable, job costs, purchasing,  payroll,  warranty
and  production  status  modules.  The  Company is  currently  in the process of
upgrading  the  software so that it will  integrate  central  office lot pricing
and/or  discounts to sales contracts that are generated by the sales  associate.
Locally attached  devices such as personal  computers,  printers,  and terminals
communicate with the AS/400 over an Ethernet  network.  Data is protected on the
AS/400 using a D.L.T.  data protection  system and daily tape backups.  A weekly
tape backup is maintained off sight as a contingency  backup in the case of fire
or other disaster.

Year 2000

         The Company  conducted a review of its computer systems to identify how
its computer systems could be affected by the "Year 2000" issues. As a result of
this review, during the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company purchased at
a cost of approximately $32,000 the latest upgrade of the "HomeBuilder" software
to be Year 2000 compliant. In addition, the Company has ordered new hardware and
operating  software at a cost of $40,000  which will be  certified  as Year 2000
compliant.  When the new software and  hardware  are  installed  and other steps
being taken by management are completed, the Company believes that it will be in
compliance with the Year 2000 issues. See "Management's  Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Year 2000."

Customer Service and Quality Control

     The Company's operating divisions are responsible for pre-closing,  quality
control inspections and responding to customer's post-closing needs. The Company
believes that the prompt,  courteous  response to  homebuyers'  needs during and
after construction  reduces  post-closing  repair costs,  enhances the Company's
reputation for quality and service,  and ultimately leads to significant  repeat
and  referral  business.  The  Company  conducts  pre-closing  inspections  with
homebuyers immediately prior to closing. In conjunction with the inspections,  a
list of items for home  completion is created.  It is the Company's  policy that
the  sale is not  closed  until  all  items  are  completed  to the  homebuyer's
satisfaction.

     All warranty  requests are processed  through the central  customer service
department  located  in the  corporate  office.  In most  instances,  a customer
service manager  inspects the warranty  request within 48 hours of receipt.  The
repair  work is  approved  by the  homeowner  upon  satisfactory  completion.  A
post-closing interview involves an analysis of the homebuyer's  experiences with
the  sales  counselor,   the  title  company,   the  mortgage  company  and  the
construction  department  as  well  as  their  satisfaction  with  the  product.
Typically,  after a year,  another  interview is conducted with the homeowner to
determine  their  continued  satisfaction.  The  subsequent  interview  provides
management  a direct  link to the  customer's  perception  of the entire  buying
experience as well as valuable feedback on the quality of the product.

Warranty Program

     The  Company  provides a  two-year  limited  warranty  of  workmanship  and
materials with each of its homes.  The first year of such warranty,  the Company
provides coverage on workmanship and materials, plumbing,  electrical,  heating,
cooling,  ventilation systems and major structural defects.  The second year the
Company is  responsible  for major  structural  defects  and  specific  types of
defects in  plumbing,  electrical,  heating,  cooling  and  ventilation  systems
exclusive  of  effects  in  appliances,  fixtures  and  equipment.  The  Company
subcontracts its  homebuilding  work to  subcontractors  who provide the Company
with an indemnity and a certificate of insurance prior to receiving payments for
their work and,  therefore,  claims  relating to  workmanship  and materials are
generally the primary responsibility of the Company's  subcontractors.  The next
eight years the Company provides a limited  homeowners'  warranty covering major
structural  defects  through a single  national  agreement with the  Residential
Warranty  Corporation ("RWC"). A reserve of approximately 0.5% of the sale price
of a home is established to cover  warranty  expenses,  although this reserve is
subject  to  adjustment  in  special  circumstances.  The  Company's  historical
experience  is that such  warranty  expenses  generally  fall  within the amount
established  for such reserve.  The Company does not currently have any material
litigation  or claims  regarding  warranties  or latent  defects with respect to
construction  of  homes.  Current  claims  and  litigation  are  expected  to be
substantially covered by the Company's reserve or insurance. Generally, warranty
claims are handled by the construction  superintendent  who built the particular
home to ensure that  prompt and  appropriate  corrective  action is taken by the
appropriate subcontractor.

Competition

     The  development and sale of residential  properties is highly  competitive
and fragmented.  The Company  competes for  residential  sales on the basis of a
number of  interrelated  factors,  including  location,  reputation,  amenities,
design, quality and price, with numerous large and small homebuilders, including
some  homebuilders with nationwide  operations and greater  financial  resources
and/or lower costs than the Company.  The Company also competes for  residential
sales with individual  resales of existing homes,  available rental housing and,
to a lesser  extent,  resales of  condominiums.  The  Company  believes  that it
compares  favorably to other  builders in the markets in which it operates,  due
primarily to: (i) its experience within its geographic markets,  which allows it
to vary its product  offerings to reflect changing market  conditions;  (ii) its
responsiveness  to  market   conditions,   enabling  it  to  capitalize  on  the
opportunities  for advantageous land  acquisitions in desirable  locations;  and
(iii) its reputation for service and quality. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to continue to compete  successfully in any of its markets.
The inability of the Company to continue to compete  successfully  in any of its
markets  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on the  Company's  business,
financial condition or results of operations.

Government Regulation and Environmental Matters

     All of the Company's  land is purchased  with the right to obtain  building
permits upon  compliance with specified  conditions,  which generally are within
the Company's control.  Upon compliance with such conditions,  the Company seeks
building  permits.  The length of time  necessary  to obtain  such  permits  and
approvals  affects the carrying  costs of unimproved  property  acquired for the
purpose  of   development   and   construction.   In  addition,   the  continued
effectiveness of permits already granted is subject to several factors,  such as
changes  in  policies,  rules  and  regulations  and  their  interpretation  and
application.  To date, the governmental  approval processes discussed above have
not had a material adverse effect on the Company's development activities. There
can be no  assurance,  however,  that  these  and  other  restrictions  will not
adversely affect the Company in the future.

     Local and  state  governments  also have  broad  discretion  regarding  the
imposition of  development  fees for projects in their  jurisdiction.  These are
normally established, however, when the Company receives recorded final maps and
building permits.  The Company is also subject to a variety of local,  state and
federal statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations concerning the protection of
health,  zoning and the environment.  These laws may result in delays, cause the
Company  to  incur   compliance  and  other  costs,  and  prohibit  or  restrict
development in certain environmentally sensitive markets.

Employees

     At  December  31,  1997,  the  Company  employed  56  persons on a full and
part-time  basis,  of  whom 28  were  sales  and  marketing  personnel,  14 were
executive,  administrative  and clerical  personnel,  and 14 were  involved with
construction.  None  of  the  Company's  employees  are  covered  by  collective
bargaining agreements. The Company believes its relations with its employees are
good.

Properties

     The Company  leases a 10,000 square foot facility in Dallas,  Texas,  which
serves as the Company's headquarters and primary residential homebuilding office
at an annual rental of $132,000.  The lease expires in August 2000.  The Company
believes this facility is adequate for its needs for the foreseeable future.

Litigation

     The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions  arising in the
ordinary  course of business.  In the opinion of the Company's  management,  the
ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Outside Directors
   
         The Company has agreed to appoint two  directors  who are not officers,
employees  or  5%  shareholders  or  related  to  an  officer,  employee  or  5%
shareholder upon conclusion of the offering. One director nominee, designated by

will form an audit and compensation  committee composed of the outside directors
and a member of management.
    

Compensation of Directors
     Directors   who  are   employees  of  the  Company  will  not  receive  any
remuneration  in their  capacity as directors.  Outside  directors  will receive
$12,000 annually, and $500 per meeting attended and related travel expenses.
Indemnification and Limitation on Liability
         If  available  at  reasonable  cost,  the  Company  intends to maintain
insurance  against any  liability  incurred by its  officers  and  directors  in
defense of any  actions  to which  they are made  parties by any reason of their
positions as officers and directors.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be  permitted to  directors,  officers  and  controlling  persons of the
Company pursuant to its Articles of Incorporation and By-laws, or otherwise, the
Company has been  advised  that in the opinion of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  such  indemnification  is against  public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Executive Compensation
         The following table sets forth the compensation  awarded to, earned by,
or paid to all executive officers (the "Named Executive  Officers") for services
rendered to the Company in all  capacities  for the fiscal years ended  December

     Prior to this offering,  the Company was a privately held  partnership  and
distributed  a portion of its income to the partners for income tax payment.  In
the future,  the Company  intends to compensate its officers in accordance  with
the  recommendations  of a compensation  committee,  a majority of which will be
outside directors. 

Employment Agreements
    
         The Company has no employment agreements.

Stock Option Plan
         The 1998 Stock Option Plan,  (the "Stock Option Plan") provides for the
grant to employees,  officers,  directors, and consultants to the Company or any
parent,  subsidiary  or affiliate of the Company of up to 300,000  shares of the
Company's  Common Stock,  subject to adjustment in the event of any subdivision,
combination, or reclassification of shares. The Stock Option Plan will terminate
in 2008. The Stock Option Plan will be administered by the Board of Directors or
a committee of the Board of Directors (the  "Committee")  which will be composed
solely of two or more directors who are  "non-employee  directors" as defined in
Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The Stock Option
Plan  provides for the grant of incentive  stock  options  ("ISO's")  within the
meaning of Section 422 of the  Internal  Revenue Code of 1986,  as amended,  and
non-qualified  options at the  discretion of the Board of Directors The exercise
price of any option will not be less than the fair market value of the shares at
the time the option is granted.  The options granted are exercisable  within the
times or upon the events  determined  by the Board or Committee set forth in the
grant, but no option is exercisable beyond ten years from the date of the grant.
The Board of  Directors or  Committee  administering  the Stock Option Plan will
determine whether each option is to be an ISO or non-qualified stock option, the
number of shares,  the exercise price, the period during which the option may be
exercised,  and any other terms and  conditions of the option.  The holder of an
option may pay the option price in (1) cash, (2) check,  (3) other shares of the
Company,  (4)  authorization  for the Company to retain from the total number of
shares to be issued that number of shares having a fair market value on the date
of exercise  equal to the  exercise  price for the total  number of shares,  (5)
irrevocable  instructions  to a broker to deliver to the  Company  the amount of
sale or loan  proceeds  required to pay the exercise  price,  (6) delivery of an
irrevocable  subscription  agreement for the shares which irrevocably  obligates
the option  holder to take and pay for shares not more than 12 months  after the
date of the delivery of the subscription  agreement,  (7) any combination of the
foregoing  methods of payment,  or (8) other  consideration or method of payment
for the issuance of shares as may be permitted under applicable law. The options
are  nontransferable  except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
Upon dissolution,  liquidation,  merger,  sale of stock or sale of substantially
all assets,  outstanding  options,  notwithstanding the terms of the grant, will
become exercisable in full at least 10 days prior to the transaction.  The Stock
Option Plan is subject to amendment or  termination at any time and from time to
time,  subject to certain  limitations.  As of the date of this  Prospectus,  no
options had been granted. Any future options to be granted will be determined by
the Board of Directors or the Committee.

                 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS


     The Company was  incorporated  in August 1998, to acquire all of the assets
of Woodhaven Homes, Ltd. a limited partnership ("Woodhaven Ltd.") and all of the
outstanding  capital stock of Resland Development  Corporation  ("Resland") from
Richard D. Laxton, Phillip R. Johns and Mark V. Johns, officers and directors of
the Company, in exchange for 2,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. The
exchange is intended to qualify as a tax free  reorganization  under Section 351
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Messrs.  Laxton, Phillip R. Johns and Mark
V.  Johns  will  continue  as  officers  and  directors  of  the  Company.   See
"Management" and "Principal Shareholders."

         In 1996 Mr. Laxton loaned  Woodhaven Ltd.  $75,000 for working capital,
evidenced  by an unsecured  demand note  bearing  interest at 12.5% per year and
$90,000 to Resland, evidenced by a note bearing interest at 12% per year for the
purchase  of land.  The note was  secured by a second  deed of trust on the land
purchased by the Company.  At June 30, 1998, the outstanding balance was $49,000
on the Woodhaven  Ltd. note and $70,000 on the Resland note.  Subsequent to June
30, 1998,  the Resland  note was repaid in full and the  proceeds  loaned to the
Company.  During 1998, Mr. Laxton made total advances to the Company of $178,503
and has been repaid  $83,500.  The advances were  evidenced by unsecured  demand
notes bearing interest at 12.5% per year which were used for working capital. At
September  30, 1998 the  outstanding  balance of the advances owed to Mr. Laxton
was $144,004.

         Through  October  1,  1997,   Dimensional  Sales  &  Marketing,   Inc.,
("Dimensional"),  conducted the Company's  marketing and sales  activities.  The
outstanding  capital stock of Dimensional is owned 49% by a sister of Phillip R.
Johns and Mark V. Johns,  26% by a trust for Mark V. John's  children and 25% by
Mr. Johns'  mother.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, the Company
paid Dimensional sales commissions of $423,889 and advertising fees of $356,705.
Upon the  conversion  of the Company to a limited  partnership  in October 1997,
Dimensional became inactive and the sales and marketing  activities were assumed
by the  Company.  It is not  intended  that such  activities  will be resumed by
Dimensional.

   
         In 1994,  the Company  paid  $75,000  each to  Dimensional,  Affordable
Lifestyle  Housing,  Inc.  ("Affordable")  and Brio Builders,  Inc. ("Brio") for
management fees for tax planning  purposes.  The companies loaned the funds back
to the Company and the Company then advanced the companies  funds to pay federal
and state income and franchise taxes. During the fiscal years ended December 31,
1997 and 1996, the Company made unsecured,  non interest bearing advances due on
demand to Dimensional of $92,748, and $49,991 for working capital and was repaid
$142,143 and 0,  respectively.  At December 31, 1997, the amount outstanding was
$1,131  from  Dimensional,   $17,135  from  Affordable  and  $7,785  from  Brio.
Affordable and Brio were  established  for tax purposes and never  conducted any
business.  They are currently inactive and there are no plans to reactivate them
Affordable is a non-profit corporation which has no members (shareholders). None
of the  Company's  officers,  directors  or members of their  families  have any
interest  in  Affordable  or  received  anything  of value  as a  result  of the
Company's  payment to Affordable.  Brio is owned 25% by Phillip R. Johns and 75%
by a trust for the benefit of his children. The trustee is a family friend. None
of the  companies  are active or have a source of income and it is unlikely that
the outstanding loans to Affordable, Brio and Dimensional will be repaid.
    

         During the fiscal years ended  December 31, 1997 and 1996,  the Company
made unsecured,  demand,  non interest  bearing  advances  totaling  $42,391 and
$57,850 respectively, to Phillip R. Johns and Mark V. Johns.
These advances were repaid at September 30, 1998.

         The Company does not intend to make loans to or from  affiliates in the
future.

                                             DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Units
         Each Unit  consists of one share of Common Stock and one  Warrant.  The
Shares and the Warrants included in the Units may not be separately traded until
six months after the date of this prospectus  unless earlier  separated upon ten
day's written notice from the  Representative to the Company.  Separation of the
Units is in the sole discretion of the  Representative and the Company is unable
to state  whether the Units will be separated  prior to six months from the date
of  this  Prospectus.   Factors  which  the  Representative   will  consider  in
determining  whether to separate  the Units prior to six months from the date of
this  Prospectus  are expected to be the trading  price and volume of trading in
the Units and the volatility of the trading price for the Units. Common Stock

         The Company is authorized to issue  20,000,000  shares of Common Stock,
$0.01 par value. As of June 30, 1998 there were 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock
issued.  There were three holders of record of the Common Stock.  The holders of
the Common  Stock are  entitled to share  ratably in any  dividends  paid on the
Common Stock when,  as and if declared by the Board of Directors  out of legally
available  funds.  Each holder of Common  Stock is entitled to one vote for each
share held of record.  The Common Stock is not entitled to cumulative  voting or
preemptive   rights  and  is  not  subject  to  redemption.   Upon  liquidation,
dissolution  or  winding up of the  Company,  the  holders  of Common  Stock are
entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution.
All outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Warrants
         The Warrants will be issued in registered form under,  governed by, and
subject to the terms of a warrant  agreement (the "Warrant  Agreement")  between
the Company and Securities  Transfer  Corporation as warrant agent (the "Warrant
Agent").  The following  statements are brief summaries of certain provisions of
the Warrant Agreement.  Copies of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained from the
Company  or the  Warrant  Agent and have been filed  with the  Commission  as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part.
         Each Warrant  entitles  the holder  thereof to purchase at any time one
share of  Common  Stock at an  exercise  price of $12.00  [120% of the  offering
price]  per  share at any time  after  the  Common  Stock  and  Warrants  become
separately tradable until _______, 2003. The right to exercise the Warrants will
terminate  at the close of  business  on  ______,  2003.  The  Warrants  contain
provisions that protect the Warrant  holders  against  dilution by adjustment of
the  exercise  price in  certain  events,  including  but not  limited  to stock
dividends, stock splits,  reclassification or mergers. A Warrant holder will not
possess any rights as a shareholder of the Company. Shares of Common Stock, when
issued upon the exercise of the Warrants in accordance  with the terms  thereof,
will be fully paid and non-assessable.
         Commencing twelve months after the date of this Prospectus, the Company
may redeem  some or all of the  Warrants  at a call price of $0.05 per  Warrant,
upon  thirty (30) day's prior  written  notice if the closing  sale price of the
Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange has equaled or exceeded $__ [200% of
the offering price] for ten (10) consecutive days.
         The Warrants may be exercised only if a current prospectus  relating to
the  underlying  Common  Stock  is then in  effect  and only if the  shares  are
qualified for sale or exempt from registration  under the securities laws of the
state or states in which the  purchaser  resides.  So long as the  Warrants  are
outstanding, the Company has undertaken to file all post-effective amendments to
the Registration Statement required to be filed under the Securities Act, and to
take  appropriate  action  under  federal law and the  securities  laws of those
states  where the  Warrants  were  initially  offered to permit the issuance and
resale of the Common Stock  issuable  upon  exercise of the  Warrants.  However,
there can be no assurance  that the Company will be in a position to effect such
action,  and the failure to do so may cause the exercise of the Warrants and the
resale or other  disposition  of the Common Stock  issued upon such  exercise to
become  unlawful.  The Company may amend the terms of the Warrants,  but only by
extending  the  termination  date or lowering the exercise  price  thereof.  The
Company has no present intention of amending such terms.  However,  there can be
no  assurance  that the Company  will not alter its  position in the future with
respect to this matter.

Other Warrants
         At the closing of this offering,  the Company will grant to its counsel
warrants to purchase 100,000 Units. The warrants will have the same terms as the
Underwriters  Warrants,  except  that  they will be  exercisable  at 100% of the
offering price of the Units in this offering. The exercise price of the warrants
included in the Units will be the same  exercise  price as the public  Warrants,
120% of the offering price of the Units in this  offering.  The warrants will be
exercisable for a period of four years, beginning one year from the date of this
Prospectus. See "Underwriting-Underwriters' Warrants." Preferred Stock
         The Board of Directors, without further action by the shareholders,  is
authorized to issue up to 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock,  $1.00 par value,
in one or more series and to fix and determine as to any series,  any and all of
the relative rights and preferences of shares in each series,  including without
limitation,  preferences,   limitations  or  relative  rights  with  respect  to
redemption  rights,  conversation  rights,  voting rights,  dividend  rights and
preferences  on  liquidation.  The issuance of  preferred  stock with voting and
conversion  rights  could  have an  adverse  affect on the  voting  power of the
holders of the Common Stock. The issuance of preferred stock could also decrease
the amount of earnings and assets  available for  distribution to holders of the
Common Stock.  In addition,  the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect
of  delaying,  deferring or  preventing a change in control of the Company.  The
Company  has no plans or  commitments  to issue any shares of  preferred  stock.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
         If the  Securities  are  accepted  for  trading on the  American  Stock
Exchange,  the Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Units,  the Common Stock and
the Warrants  will be Securities  Transfer  Corporation,  16910 Dallas  Parkway,
Suite 100, Dallas, Texas 75248.

                                          SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

         Upon  completion  of this  offering,  the Company  will have  3,000,000
shares of Common Stock issued and  outstanding.  Of these shares,  the 1,000,000
shares  sold  in  this  offering  (1,150,000  if the  over-allotment  option  is
exercised  in  full)  will be  freely  tradable  in the  public  market  without
restriction  under the Securities Act, except shares purchased by an "affiliate"
(as defined in the  Securities  Act) of the  Company.  The  remaining  2,000,000
shares,  (the  "Restricted  Shares"),  will be  "restricted  shares"  within the
meaning of the Securities Act and may be publicly sold only if registered  under
the  Securities  Act or sold in  accordance  with an applicable  exemption  from
registration, such as those provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
         In  general,  under Rule 144,  as  currently  in  effect,  a person (or
persons whose shares are aggregated) is entitled to sell Restricted Shares if at
least one year has passed since the later of the date such shares were  acquired
from the Company or any  affiliate of the Company.  Rule 144  provides,  however
that within any  three-month  period such person may only sell up to the greater
of  1%  of  the  then   outstanding   shares  of  the  Company's   Common  Stock
(approximately  30,000 shares  following the completion of this offering) or the
average  weekly  trading  volume in the  Company's  Common Stock during the four
calendar weeks immediately preceding the date on which the notice of the sale is
filed  with the  Commission.  Sales  pursuant  to Rule 144 also are  subject  to
certain  other  requirements  relating  to  manner  of sale,  notice of sale and
availability  of  current  public  information.  Any  person who has not been an
affiliate of the Company for a period of 90 days  preceding a sale of Restricted
Shares is  entitled to sell such  shares  under Rule 144 without  regard to such
limitations  if at least two years have passed  since the later of the date such
shares were acquired  from the Company or any  affiliate of the Company.  Shares
held by persons who are deemed to be affiliated  with the Company are subject to
such volume limitations  regardless of how long they have been owned or how they
were acquired.
         After  this  offering,   executive   officers,   directors  and  senior
management  will  own  2,000,000  shares  of the  Common  Stock.  The  Company's
shareholders and directors and the Sellers will enter into an agreement with the
Representatives  providing  that they will not sell or otherwise  dispose of any
shares of Common  Stock  held by them for a period of one year after the date of
this Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Representatives.
         The Company can make no prediction as to the effect, if any, that offer
or sale of these  shares  would  have on the market  price of the Common  Stock.
Nevertheless,  sales of significant  amounts of Restricted  Shares in the public
markets could adversely affect the fair market price of Common Stock, as well as
impair the  ability of the  Company to raise  capital  through  the  issuance of
additional equity securities.

                                                   UNDERWRITING

         Pursuant to the terms and subject to the  conditions  contained  in the
Underwriting Agreement, the Company has agreed to sell to the Underwriters named
below, and each of the Underwriters,  for whom Tejas Securities Group,  Inc.(the
"Representative")  are  acting  as  Representative,  have  severally  agreed  to
purchase the number of Units set forth opposite its name in the following table.

              Underwriters                                      Number of Units

         Tejas Securities Group, Inc.


              Total.....................................           1,000,000
                                                                   =========


         The  Representative  has  advised  the  Company  that the  Underwriters
propose to offer the Units to the public at the initial  public  offering  price
per share set forth on the cover page of this  Prospectus and to certain dealers
at such price less a concession  of not more than $___ per Unit,  of which $____
may be reallowed to other dealers.  The public  offering  price,  concession and
reallowance to dealers will not be reduced by the Representative until after the
offering is completed.  No such reduction shall change the amount of proceeds to
be received by the Company as set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus.

         The  Company  has granted to the  Underwriters  an option,  exercisable
during the 45-day  period after the date of this  Prospectus,  to purchase up to
150,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the same price per
share as the Company will receive for the 1,000,000 Units that the  Underwriters
have agreed to  purchase.  To the extent  that the  Underwriters  exercise  such
option,  each  of the  Underwriters  will  have a firm  commitment  to  purchase
approximately  the same percentage of such  additional  Units that the number of
Units to be purchased by it shown in the above table  represents as a percentage
of the 1,000,000 Units offered hereby. If purchased,  such additional Units will
be sold by the  Underwriters  on the same terms as those on which the  1,000,000
Units are being sold.

         The Underwriting  Agreement  contains  covenants of indemnity among the
Underwriters  and the  Company  against  certain  civil  liabilities,  including
liabilities under the Securities Act.

         The holders of approximately 2,000,000 shares of the Common Stock after
the offering have agreed with the Representative  that, until one year after the
date of this Prospectus,  subject to certain limited  exceptions,  they will not
sell,  contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock, any
options to purchase shares of Common Stock, or any securities  convertible into,
exercisable  for or exchangeable  for shares of Common Stock,  owned directly by
such  holders  or with  respect  to which  they have the  power of  disposition,
without the prior written consent of the  Representative.  Substantially  all of
such shares will be eligible for immediate  public sale following  expiration of
the lock-up  periods,  subject to the  provisions of Rule 144. In addition,  the
Company  has agreed that until 365 days after the date of this  Prospectus,  the
Company  will not,  without  the prior  written  consent of the  Representative,
subject to  certain  limited  exceptions,  issue,  sell,  contract  to sell,  or
otherwise  dispose of, any shares of Common  Stock,  any options to purchase any
shares of Common Stock or any securities  convertible  into,  exercisable for or
exchangeable for shares of Common Stock other than the Company's sales of shares
in this offering,  the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of outstanding
options or warrants or the issuance of options  under its employee  stock option
plan. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."

         The Underwriters have the right to offer the Securities  offered hereby
only through licensed securities dealers in the United States who are members of
the National Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc. and may allow such dealers
such  portion  of its ten  (10%)  percent  commission  as the  Underwriters  may
determine.

         The Underwriters will not confirm sales to any  discretionary  accounts
without the prior written consent of their customers.

         The  Company  has agreed to pay the  Representative  a  non-accountable
expense  allowance of 2.00% of the gross  amount of the Units sold  ($200,000 on
the sale of the Units offered) at the closing of the offering. The Underwriters'
expenses in excess  thereof  will be paid by the  Representative.  To the extent
that the expenses of the  underwriting  are less than that  amount,  such excess
shall be deemed to be additional compensation to the Underwriters.  In the event
this offering is terminated before its successful completion, the Company may be
obligated to pay the Representative a maximum of $50,000 on an accountable basis
for expenses incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this offering.

         The Company has agreed that for a period of five years from the closing
of the sale of the Units  offered  hereby,  it will  nominate  for election as a
director a person designated by the Representative,  and during such time as the
Representative has not exercised such right, the  Representative  shall have the
right to designate an observer,  who shall be entitled to attend all meetings of
the Board and receive all correspondence and communications  sent by the Company
to the members of the Board.  The  Representative  has not yet identified to the
Company  the  person  who is to be  nominated  for  election  as a  director  or
designated as an observer. 
   
The Representative has designated Robert A. Shuey, III as the director-designee.
See "Management-outside Director"

         The  Underwriting  Agreement  provides  for  indemnification  among the
Company  and the  Underwriters  against  certain  civil  liabilities,  including
liabilities under the Securities Act. In addition,  the  Underwriters'  Warrants
provide  for   indemnification   among  the  Company  and  the  holders  of  the
Underwriters'  Warrants and underlying shares against certain civil liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act.

Underwriters' Warrants

         Upon the  closing of this  offering,  the Company has agreed to sell to
the Underwriters for nominal  consideration,  the  Underwriters'  Warrants.  The
Underwriters'  Warrants are exercisable at 140% of the public offering price for
a four-year period commencing one year from the effective date of this offering.
The  Underwriters'   Warrants  may  not  be  sold,   transferred,   assigned  or
hypothecated  for a period of one year from the date of this offering  except to
the officers of the Underwriters and their successors and dealers  participating
in the offering and/or their partners or officers.  The  Underwriters'  Warrants
will contain antidilution provisions providing for appropriate adjustment of the
number of shares  subject  to the  Warrants  under  certain  circumstances.  The
holders of the Underwriters'  Warrants have no voting,  dividend or other rights
as  shareholders   of  the  Company  with  respect  to  shares   underlying  the
Underwriters' Warrants until the Underwriters' Warrants have been exercised.

         The Company has agreed, during the four year period commencing one year
from the date of this  offering,  to give  advance  notice to the holders of the
Underwriters'  Warrants or  underlying  securities  of its  intention  to file a
registration  statement,  other than in connection  with employee stock options,
mergers,  or  acquisitions,  and in such case the  holders of the  Underwriters'
Warrants and underlying  securities  shall have the right to require the Company
to include  their  securities  in such  registration  statement at the Company's
expense.

         For the term of the Underwriters' Warrants, the holders thereof will be
given the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market value of the Company's
shares,  with a resulting  dilution in the interest of other  shareholders.  The
holders  of  the  Underwriters'   Warrants  can  be  expected  to  exercise  the
Underwriters'  Warrants at a time when the Company would, in all likelihood,  be
able to obtain  needed  capital by an offering of its  unissued  shares on terms
more favorable to the Company than those provided by the Underwriters' Warrants.
Such  facts may  adversely  affect  the terms on which the  Company  can  obtain
additional financing. Any profit realized by the Underwriters on the sale of the
Underwriters'  Warrants or shares  issuable upon  exercise of the  Underwriters'
Warrants may be deemed additional underwriting compensation.

         If the  Representative,  at their election,  at any time one year after
the date of this Prospectus,  solicit the exercise of the Warrants,  the Company
will be obligated,  subject to certain  conditions,  to pay the Representative a
solicitation fee equal to 5% of the aggregate  proceeds  received by the Company
as a result  of the  solicitation.  No  warrant  solicitation  fees will be paid
within one year after the date of this  Prospectus.  No solicitation fee will be
paid if the  market  price of the Common  Stock is lower than the then  exercise
price of the Warrants,  no  solicitation  fee will be paid if the Warrants being
exercised are held in a  discretionary  account at the time of exercise,  except
where  prior  specific  approval  for  exercise is  received  from the  customer
exercising  the  Warrants,  and no  solicitation  fee  will be paid  unless  the
customer  exercising  the  Warrants  states in  writing  that the  exercise  was
solicited and designates in writing the Representative or other broker-dealer to
receive  compensation in connection with the exercise.  The  Representative  may
reallow a portion of the fee to soliciting broker-dealers.

    

Determination of Offering Price

          The initial  public  offering  price was  determined  by  negotiations
between  the  Company  and  the   Representative.   The  factors  considered  in
determining the public offering price include the Company's revenue growth since
its  organization,  the industry in which it operates,  the  Company's  business
potential  and earning  prospects  and the general  condition of the  securities
markets  at the  time of the  offering.  The  offering  price  does not bear any
relationship to the Company's assets,  book value, net worth or other recognized
objective criteria of value.

          Prior to this  offering,  there  has  been no  public  market  for the
Securities, and there can be no assurance than an active market will develop.

American Stock Exchange

         The Company intends to apply for listing of the Units, Common Stock and
Warrants on the American Stock Exchange under the trading symbols "," "" and ","
respectively.  The listing is contingent,  among other things,  upon the Company
obtaining 400 shareholders.



                                                   LEGAL MATTERS

         The validity of the issuance of the  Securities  offered hereby will be

                          Independent Auditor's Report


The Stockholders/Partners
Woodhaven Homes, Inc.
    and Related Companies


We have audited the  accompanying  combined  balance sheets of Woodhaven  Homes,
Inc. and related  companies  as of December  31, 1997 and 1996,  and the related
combined statements of operations, stockholders'/partners' equity and cash flows
for the three year period ended December 31, 1997.  These  financial  statements
are the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our  responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the combined  financial  statements  referred to above  present
fairly, in all material  respects,  the combined financial position of Woodhaven
Homes,  Inc. and related  companies  as of December  31, 1997 and 1996,  and the
combined  results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the  period  ended  December  31,  1997 in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting principles.

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Operations and business

Woodhaven Homes, Ltd., a limited  partnership,  was originally  organized in the
state of  Texas  as  Woodhaven  Homes,  L.L.C.,  a  limited  liability  company,
(collectively  hereinafter  referred to as the Company) on October 21, 1992.  On
September 30, 1997, the Company was  reorganized as a limited  partnership  with
the assets and liabilities of the limited liability  company  transferred to the
limited  partnership at their  historical cost bases.  The Company is engaged in
the  construction  and  sale  of  single-family  homes  in  the  Dallas,   Texas
metropolitan area.

Principles of combination

The accompanying  combined financial  statements include the general accounts of
the Company and the following  companies  wholly owned by the same  individuals.
They are collectively referred to as "the Company."

            Company                                      Type of Entity                Date Incorporated
<S>                                                         <C>                   <C>    

Woodhaven Homes, Inc. (WHI)                                C corporation             August 7, 1998
Resland Development Corporation (RDC)                      C corporation             December 20, 1993
</TABLE>

All intercompany  accounts and balances have been eliminated in the combination.
Each of the companies have a fiscal year end of December 31 except for RDC which
has a fiscal year end of November 30. There have been no  intervening  events or
transactions  that  would  have a  material  effect  on the  combined  financial
position  or results of  operations.  Net income  (loss) has been  allocated  to
retained  earnings and partners'  equity of each combined company based on their
respective earnings.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  include the  financial  activities  of
Woodhaven  Homes,  L.L.C.  for the period January 1, 1995 through  September 30,
1997,  and the  financial  activities  of Woodhaven  Homes,  Ltd. for the period
October 1, 1997 through September 30, 1998. There were no significant changes in
the  operations or financial  activities of the Company as a result of the above
mentioned reorganization.

Stockholder's equity

In connection with a proposed public offering,  the Company  incorporated in the
state of Texas on  August 7,  1998 as  Woodhaven  Homes,  Inc.  with  20,000,000
authorized common stock shares with a par value of $.01 and 3,000,000 authorized
preferred  stock  shares  with a par  value of $1.00  in one or more  series  of
issuance with  preferences and rights to be determined by the Board of Directors
at the time such series of preferred stock shares are issued.

Upon  completion of the public  offering,  2,000,000  common stock shares of the
Company  will be issued to its current  partners in exchange  for all of the net
assets of Woodhaven Homes, Ltd. and the related companies. This transaction will
be accounted  similar to a pooling of interest with the  transferred  assets and
liabilities  being  recorded at their  historical  cost bases.  The  exchange is
intended  to  qualify  as a tax free  reorganization  under  Section  351 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Interim financial information

The notes to the  interim  unaudited  financial  statements  do not  present all
disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles but instead,
as permitted by Securities  and Exchange  Commission  regulations,  presume that
users of the interim unaudited financial  statements have read or have access to
the  December  31, 1997 audited  financial  statements  and that the adequacy of
additional  disclosure  needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that
context.

The  interim  unaudited   financial   statements  included  herein  reflect  all
adjustments  (consisting  of normal  recurring  adjustments)  which are,  in the
opinion of  management,  necessary  to a fair  presentation  of the  results for
interim  periods.  The results of  operations  for the nine month  periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 are not necessarily  indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.

Revenue and recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its homes at the time of closing
when title,  possession and other  attributes of ownership have been transferred
to the buyer and after which the Company is not obligated to perform significant
additional activities.

Management estimates

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and
the  reported  amounts of revenues  and expenses  during the  reporting  period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash flows

For purposes of the statement of cash flows,  cash includes  demand deposits and
time deposits with maturities of less than three months.

Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include
original land and lot costs,  construction  costs and related  expenditures.  In
addition, interest on construction indebtedness (secured by specific real estate
inventories)  and real estate  taxes are  capitalized  until the  completion  of
construction. The costs of inventories are based upon specific identification of
direct construction costs, interest, taxes, closing costs and allocable costs of
labor and other indirect costs.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Property and equipment

Property  and  equipment  are  stated  at cost  less  accumulated  depreciation.
Depreciation  of property and equipment is currently  being provided by straight
line methods for  financial and tax reporting  purposes  over  estimated  useful
lives of three to ten years.  For the years ended  December 31,  1997,  1996 and
1995 depreciation expense totaled $125,520, $89,498 and $44,431, respectively.

Advertising

The Company's  advertising costs, which consist primarily of radio, magazine and
newspaper  advertising,  are charged to expense as incurred. For the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, advertising expense totaled $374,360, $267,137
and $162,340.

Pro forma net earnings per share

For the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1998 and 1997 and the  years  ended
December  31,  1997,  1996 and  1995,  the net  earnings  per  share is based on
2,000,000  weighted  average shares of common stock  outstanding.  No effect has
been given to the assumed  exercise  of stock  options or warrants as the effect
would be antidilutive.

In February  1997,  the  Financial  Standards  Accounting  Board  (FASB)  issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 Earnings Per Share effective
for financial  statement  periods ending after  December 15, 1997.  Earnings per
share  information  for all prior periods  presented are restated to comply with
the  requirements of this  pronouncement  and reflect the issuance of the shares
referred to above as of January 1, 1995,  the  beginning of the earliest  period
presented.

For pro forma earnings per share purposes,  net income has also been adjusted by
the federal income taxes attributable to the Company's earnings which would have
been incurred if the Company had been operating as a C corporation (Note 6).

2.    INVENTORIES

At December 31, 1997 and 1996, inventories consisted of the following:

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


For the years ended December 31, 1997,  1996 and 1995,  rent expense under these
leases totaled $98,712, $57,620 and $18,268, respectively. Future minimum rental
payments required under these operating leases are as follows:

                                  Year Ended
                                 December 31,                 Amount

                           1998                             $   109,000
                           1999                                 113,000
                           2000 and
                           thereafter                            92,000
                                                            $   314,000

The Company has also  acquired  various  items of equipment  under capital lease
obligations.  However the amounts of these  capital  lease  obligations  are not
material and have been included  with notes payable for financial  reporting and
disclosure purposes.

Lot options

In the normal course of business,  the Company  enters into option  contracts to
purchase improved lots which generally require an initial option payment of less
than 5% of the stated  purchase  price.  The option deposits and any other costs
incurred on the optioned properties are included in inventories.  As of December
31, 1997 and 1996, the Company has  forfeitable  option deposits and other costs
of $290,250 and  $238,650,  respectively,  on contracts to purchase  lots with a
total  purchase  price of  $14,478,290  and  $8,663,300.  The  option  contracts
generally  include a provision  that  requires the Company to purchase a certain
number of lots by a specific  date.  Loss of the option  deposit could result if
the Company  fails to comply  with the option  contract  provisions  and certain
contracts specifically require the Company to purchase a minimum number of lots.
At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the total of such minimum commitments under these
provisions were approximately $108,000 and $481,500, respectively.

Year 2000 computer compliance

The  Company  is  currently  using  computer  hardware  and the  software  it is
currently using is not in compliance with the year 2000 dating issues.  However,
new  software  and  hardware  components  have been ordered that will enable the
Company to be in compliance  prior to December 31, 1998.  During the nine months
ended September 30, 1998, the Company  incurred  approximately  $32,000 of costs
related to this effort.  Management does not believe any additional  significant
cost will be incurred and the accompanying  financial  statements do not contain
any reserve for this contingency.

6.  INCOME TAXES

As a limited liability company and as a limited partnership, the Company files a
U.S.  partnership tax return and pays no federal income tax. Rather, its income,
deductions and credits are allocated to its individual  partners who then report
these  amounts  on their  respective  tax  returns.  As a  result,  there are no
deferred tax assets or liabilities.

On September 30, 1997,  the Company  filed its final state  franchise tax return
upon  reorganization   from  a  limited  liability   corporation  to  a  limited
partnership.  The limited liability corporation was subject to a state franchise
tax based on the greater of 4.5% of taxable  income or .25% of members'  equity.
These amounts are reflected in the accompanying  financial  statements as income
tax expense.

A reconciliation  of income tax expense at the statutory  federal rate to income
tax expense at the Company's effective tax rate for the years ended December 31,
1997, 1996 and 1995 is as follows:

7.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's financial  instruments  consist of its cash, accounts  receivable,
advances to affiliates and notes payable.

Cash

The Company  maintains its cash in bank deposit  accounts which,  at times,  may
exceed federally insured limits.  At December 31, 1997 and 1996,  $471,575 and $
96,289,  respectively,  of the  Company's  cash was in excess of FDIC  insurance
coverage.  The Company has not  experienced  any losses in such  accounts and it
believes it is not exposed to any significant  credit risks affecting cash. None
of the Company's cash is restricted.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Accounts receivable

Accounts  receivable  consist  primarily  of amounts in escrow  remitted  to the
Company from title  companies  shortly after year end for houses sold and closed
on or before year end.  Management believes it is not exposed to any significant
credit risks affecting accounts receivable and that these receivables are fairly
stated at estimated net realizable amounts.

Advances to affiliates

Advances to affiliates  are unsecured  and non interest  bearing but  management
believes these  advances are fairly stated at estimated net realizable  amounts.
Management  believes the carrying  value of these  advances  represent  the fair
value of these financial  instruments  because of the short term nature of these
advances.

Construction loans and notes payable

Management  believes the carrying  value of these  construction  loans and notes
represent the fair value of these financial  instruments because their terms are
similar to those in the  lending  market for  comparable  loans with  comparable
risks.

8.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

On October 1, 1997,  the Company  established  an Employee  Profit  Sharing Plan
qualifying  under  Section  401(k) of the  Internal  Revenue  Code  covering all
employees meeting general eligibility  requirements.  Contributions to the plan,
which are  discretionary,  are used to  provide  various  retirement,  death and
disability  benefits.  During the year ended  December  31,  1997,  the  Company
contributed approximately $27,000 to the plan.

9.  STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

On August  10,  1998 the  Company  adopted a  qualified  stock  option  plan and
reserved  300,000  common stock shares to be issued to executive  management and
other  employees and adopted the intrinsic  value method of accounting for these
stock  options.  The exercise price of the options issued will be at 110% of the
fair market value of the common  stock shares on the date of grant.  The options
will be exercisable  at a rate of 20% per year and will expire upon  termination
of employment or within ten years.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


For pro forma  disclosure  purposes,  there are no differences in net income and
earnings per share  amounts  assuming the Company  accounted  for stock  options
granted  using  the  fair  value  method  pursuant  to  Statement  of  Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123.

As part of a proposed public  offering,  the Company may issue  separately up to
1,350,000  redeemable  common stock  purchase  warrants which will be separately
transferable.  Each  warrant  will  entitle the holder to purchase  one share of
common stock at a price of 120% of the public  offering price and will expire in
five years.

Item 14.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Pursuant to Section 2.02-1 of the Texas Business  Corporation Act, a corporation
may indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding  because the individual
is or was a director against  liability  incurred in his official  capacity with
the corporation including expenses and attorneys fees.

         Article Nine of the Articles of Incorporation  provides that a director
of the Corporation  shall not be liable to the  corporation or the  shareholders
for any act or  omission in such  capacity  as a director to the fullest  extent
permitted by Texas statutory or decisional law.


Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

         The Registrant has not issued any  unregistered  securities  during the
last three years but intends to issue  2,000,000  shares of its common  stock to
Richard D. Laxton,  Phillip R. Johns and Mark V. Johns,  the three principals of
Woodhaven  Homes,  Ltd., a Texas  limited  partnership  (the  "Partnership")  in

are the  registrant's  officers and  directors and have been the managers of the
Partnership and its predecessor  limited  liability company and Resland and have
access  to all  corporate  information.  The  exchange  of stock  for  assets is
designed to qualify as a tax free  exchange  under  section 351 of the  Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 and will be exempt from  registration  under the Securities
Act provided by Section 4(2)  thereunder as a transaction not involving a public
offering. No underwriter was involved in the transaction

Item 17.  Undertakings

         The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows:

         (1)      To provide to the Underwriters at the closing specified in the
                  Underwriting  Agreement certificates in such denominations and
                  registered  in such names as required by the  Underwriters  to
                  permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

         (2)      To  file,  during  any  period  in which  it  offers  or sells
                  securities,  a post-effective  amendment to this  Registration
                  Statement to:

                  (a)      Include any Prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
                           of the Securities Act;

                  (b)      Reflect in the  Prospectus any facts or events which,
                           individually  or  together,  represent a  fundamental
                           change in the Registration Statement; and

                  (c) Include any additional or changed material  information on
the plan of distribution.

         (3)      For  the  purpose  of  determining  any  liability  under  the
                  Securities Act, each post-effective  amendment that contains a
                  form of  prospectus  shall be deemed to be a new  Registration
                  Statement relating to the securities offered therein,  and the
                  offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
                  the initial bona fide offering thereof.

         (4)      Insofar as indemnification  for liabilities  arising under the
                  Securities  Act may be  permitted  to  directors,  officers or
                  persons  controlling the registrant  pursuant to the foregoing
                  provisions,  or  otherwise,  the  registrant  has been advised
                  that,   in  the  opinion  of  the   Securities   and  Exchange
                  Commission,  such indemnification is against public policy, as
                  expressed in the Act and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the
                  event   that  a  claim  for   indemnification   against   such
                  liabilities  (other  than the  payment  by the  registrant  of
                  expenses   incurred  or  paid  by  a   director,   officer  or
                  controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense
                  of any  action,  suit  or  proceeding)  is  asserted  by  such
                  director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
                  shares of the  securities  being  registered,  the  registrant
                  will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
                  settled  by  controlling  precedent,  submit  to  a  court  of
                  appropriate    jurisdiction    the   question   whether   such
                  indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
                  the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
                  issue.

         (5)      For the  purposes  of  determining  any  liability  under  the
                  Securities  Act,  the  information  omitted  from  the form of
                  prospectus  filed  as  part  of a  registration  statement  in
                  reliance   upon  Rule  430A  and  contained  in  the  form  of
                  prospectus filed by the registrant  pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1)
                  or (4) or 497(h) under the  Securities  Act shall be deemed to
                  be part of this  Registration  Statement as of the time it was
                  declared effective.
