The layoffs then were a response to the expectation that the company would sell fewer homes in 2022, Kelman said. This new round of layoffs “assumes the downturn will last at least through 2023,” he stressed.

If they choose to leave, then the total headcount will have been reduced by 29% over the last seven months.
