We are benefiting from our strategy of broadening our product lines , price points and geographies as we continue to grow our business , drive price , expand margins and improve our capital efficiency . " Demand continues to be very strong . Net signed contracts were up 35 % in dollars to approximately $ 3 billion compared to the prior year period . The housing market is being driven by many strong fundamentals , including low mortgage rates , favorable millennial - driven demographics , a decade of pent - up demand , low new home supply , and a tight resale market . We expect strong and sustainable demand for our homes in the years to come . " Our deep land position provides a solid foundation for growth , with 340 communities projected by FYE 2021 and an additional 10 % community count growth in fiscal 2022. Our record backlog , our focus on capital and operating efficiency , and the continued strength of the housing market give us confidence that our full FY 2022 margins will significantly exceed the strong margins we project for our FY 2021 fourth quarter and that our return on beginning equity will exceed 20 % in FY 2022 and beyond .
