Mungo Homes Acquires McGuinn Homes, Expands Southeast PresenceJuly 2, 2026

Mungo Homes, a Clayton Home Building Group builder, announced the acquisition of McGuinn Homes, a highly respected builder in South Carolina for over 40 years. The acquisition strengthens Mungo’s current market position while expanding its presence in key strategic areas, including Augusta, Georgia, and Aiken, South Carolina. 

Mungo Homes has a legacy of more than 70 years building homes in South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia. McGuinn Homes has built a strong reputation over four decades and currently builds in Aiken, South Carolina; Augusta, Georgia; Columbia, South Carolina; Greenville, South Carolina; Savannah, Georgia; Hilton Head Island, South Carolina; and Sumter, South Carolina. 

“We’re excited to join the Mungo family and continue our commitment to the markets we impact,” said Wade McGuinn, founder and managing shareholder of McGuinn Homes. “Together, we’re well positioned to provide more attainable homeownership opportunities through a shared commitment to customer service and operational excellence.” 

Both organizations share a deep commitment to giving back to the communities they serve and placing people at the center of their success. Mungo strives to Do good through the Mungo Homes Foundation, including Mungo’s annual week of service in which team members donated 1,696 hours to more than 30 organizations across its service area in 2026. Similarly, McGuinn makes meaningful, lasting impacts through service and generosity through their McGuinn Good™ program. 

“The addition of McGuinn Homes to the Mungo family reflects our shared values of attainable homeownership, world-class team member experience, and giving back to the people and communities we serve,” said Keith Holdbrooks, chief executive officer of Clayton Home Building Group. “This acquisition allows both teams to come together and expand access to affordable homes in more markets while serving as a united force for good through volunteerism.”

McGuinn’s product offerings will broaden Mungo capabilities and allow the company to better serve a wider range of customers across the Southeast. The company employs roughly 75 team members and is projected to close nearly 800 homes this year.  

“This is an exciting and strategic combination, and one we see as a natural fit,” said Geoff Shiley, chief executive officer of Mungo Homes. “Over the past 40 years, McGuinn has built something special with a strong reputation, a values-driven culture, and a genuine commitment to the customers and communities they serve. Those are the very priorities that have guided Mungo for decades.”  

Whelan Advisory served as the exclusive financial advisor to McGuinn Homes.
