Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Purchase Agreement

On September 2, 2025, Dream Finders Homes, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc. (“BofA”), as representative of the several initial purchasers named therein (collectively, the “Initial Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell $300 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.875% senior unsecured notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”). The 2030 Notes will be sold to investors at a price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Company expects to receive net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the 2030 Notes (the “Offering”) of $295 million, after deducting the Initial Purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties and indemnification and contribution provisions under which the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company and the Guarantors have also agreed not to offer or sell certain debt securities for a period of 90 days after September 2, 2025, without the prior consent of BofA.

The 2030 Notes are to be sold in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act. The Initial Purchasers intend to resell the 2030 Notes to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S. The 2030 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.

The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On September 2, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offering. A copy of such press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
