PART I

Item 1. Business

Overview

Building on a history of over 1,500 new homes built, the management of Dream Homes & Development Corporation has positioned the company to emerge as a rapidly growing regional developer of new single-family subdivisions as well as a leader in coastal construction, elevation and mitigation. In the five years that have passed since Superstorm Sandy flooded 40,000 owner-occupied homes, Dream Homes has helped hundreds of homeowners to rebuild or raise their homes to comply with new FEMA requirements. While other builders have struggled to adapt to the changing market and complex Federal, State and local regulations involved with coastal construction in Flood Hazard Areas, Dream Homes has excelled. As many of our competitors have failed, Dream Homes has developed a reputation as the region’s most trusted builder and has even become known as the “rescue” builder for homeowners whose projects have been abandoned by others. Due to the damage caused by the storm, as well as the material changes in the FEMA flood maps which now require over 30,000 homeowners along the New Jersey coastline to elevate their homes, Dream Homes is positioned to capitalize on this opportunity for substantial revenue growth.

Management anticipates steady growth in this division of the company, since the rebuilding process will occur over the next 15-20 years, and have an anticipated market value of $3,400,000,000. The company anticipates being able to efficiently address 5% - 10% of this market. Dream Homes’ potential operations include the development and sale of a variety of residential communities, including construction of semi-custom homes, entry-level and first time move-up single-family and multi-family homes.

In addition to the New Jersey market, the Company, through its Dream Building LLC subsidiary, has become licensed in Florida to pursue recent opportunities for elevation, restoration, renovation and new construction brought about by the damage caused by recent hurricanes. Initial markets to be targeted are located primarily in the southwest portion of the state, between Naples and Cape Coral.

In addition to the projects which the Company currently has under contract for elevation, renovation, new construction and development, there are a number of parcels of land which the Company has the ability to secure, whether through land contract or other types of options. These parcels represent additional opportunities for development and construction potential on the order of an additional 400 - 800 lots and/or residential units to be developed and built within an approximate time horizon of 5 years. Conceivably, this volume of production could yield $120,000,000 - $240,000,000 in gross revenue and $25,000,000 - $50,000,000 in earnings to the Company.

Management recognized that the effects of Super Storm Sandy, which occurred on 10/29/12 would be far reaching and cause an almost unlimited demand for construction services, as well as specific construction information. Due to the damage caused by the storm, as well as the material changes in the FEMA flood maps which now require over 30,000 homeowners along the New Jersey coastline to elevate their homes, management feels that focusing on the construction field will continue to provide a stable revenue stream for the company.

Due to the opportunities afforded by the market conditions, Dream Homes and Development Corporation as well as Dream Building LLC, which operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Dream, will continue to pursue opportunities in the construction and real estate field, specifically in new home construction, home elevations and renovations.

In addition to the existing elevation, renovation and new home projects currently in process, Dream Building LLC has also estimated an additional $5,300,000 worth of residential construction projects and currently has over 200 active prospects to its data base. All of these prospects are prime candidates for educational videos and short books on specific construction and rebuilding topics, as well as candidates for rebuilding projects to be built under the Dream Building LLC division.

Management continues to anticipate steady growth in this division of the company, since the rebuilding process will occur over the next 15-20 years, and is estimated to have a market value of $3,400,000,000. The company anticipates being able to efficiently address 5% - 10% of this market.

Our Competitive Strengths

The Company currently offers the following range of services and products: land development and approvals, infrastructure installation, new single and multi-family construction, engineering & structural design, soil studies, architectural and design/build capabilities, construction management services, general contracting of all residential single and multi-family construction, helical and timber pile installation, masonry foundations and concrete work of all varieties, management of home elevation and moving projects and complete finish requirements for all interior construction. The Company offers comprehensive full turn key solutions, from plan design through certificate of occupancy, which gives it a competitive advantage over many other construction & development companies.

In addition to the above products and services, the Company offers educational and marketing opportunities via the Rebuilding Blog and the Rebuilding Seminar,

Among other core strengths, we believe that the “Dream Homes Nearly Famous Rebuilding Seminar”, as well as the informational blog known as the “Dream Homes Rebuilding Blog” are several of our key competitive advantages. At this time, we are not aware of any other building and development companies which offer these services to the public.

The Nearly Famous Rebuilding Seminar is held bi-monthly, and is a powerful educational tool for homeowners who need of rebuilding or renovations. This seminar has been presented steadily since early 2013, and is designed to educate and assist homeowners in deciphering the confusion about planning and executing complex residential construction projects. A professional team attends each seminar and presents on a diverse variety of topics, including expert advice from some or all of the following attendant at each seminar: architects, engineers, finance people, attorneys, project managers, elevation professionals and builder/general contractors. The seminar has been extremely successful and very helpful to hundreds of people. In addition, the seminar content offers unlimited potential for marketing short educational videos, as well as single topic books regarding many aspects of construction and renovation.

The “Dream Homes Rebuilding Blog” is an educational platform written by Vincent Simonelli, which offers comprehensive advice on all aspects of construction and real estate.

This seminar, as well as the Dream Homes Rebuilding Blog, have been an integral part of the Company’s marketing efforts and will continue to be in the future. Currently the blog, which is located at http://blog.dreamhomesltd.com , offers a wide variety of specific knowledge pertaining to construction, development, finance and general real estate matters. Built on a Word Press platform, the Rebuilding Blog is easily searchable by topic and a very useful resource for this demographic. Homeowners who need to build or rebuild are excellent candidates for all manner of educational material. As such, Dream Homes currently has in development a Nearly Famous Rebuilding after Sandy book, mobile application and numerous single topic publications which specifically explain particular aspects of the rebuilding process.

Common topics for short books and videos to be developed from Rebuilding Seminar and Rebuilding Blog content will include: Foundation Systems, Wall Treatments, Elevating your Home to Allow for a Basement, Adding a Garage, Waterproofing below the Flood Plain, Cost/Benefit Analysis of Various Improvements, Siding and Roofing Options and numerous other subjects.

Our Growth Strategy

The Company has recognized that the effects of Super Storm Sandy, which occurred on 10/29/12 would be far reaching and cause an almost unlimited demand for construction information, as well as specific construction services. Due to the damage caused by the storm, as well as the material changes in the FEMA flood maps which now require over 30,000 homeowners along the New Jersey coastline to elevate their homes, the management team of Dream feels that pursuing new home construction and elevation/renovation projects will continue to produce a stable revenue stream for the company.

In addition to the Company’s current projects, Dream Building LLC has also estimated an additional $5,300,000 worth of residential construction projects and added over 200 active prospects to its data base. All of these prospects are prime candidates for educational videos and short books on specific construction and rebuilding topics, as well as candidates for rebuilding projects to be built under the Dream Building LLC division.

Management anticipates steady growth in this division of the company, since the rebuilding process will occur over the next 15-20 years, and have a market value of $3,400,000,000. The company anticipates being able to efficiently address 5% - 10% of this market.

Properties & other assets

In regard to the category of real estate development, Dream Homes has acquired a contract for the development and construction of 58 new townhomes in central Ocean County, NJ. This acquisition was made for common stock and occurred in the 4th quarter of 2016. This development project is scheduled to begin in late 2018 or early 2019 and is projected to add approximately $13,000,000 to the Company’s gross sales, through its Dream Building LLC division.

The Company is also in contract and in the approval process for a 7-acre tract in central Ocean County, New Jersey, which will yield 13 single-family lots. This development project is scheduled to begin in late 2018 and is projected to add approximately $4,500,000 to the Company’s gross sales, through its Dream Building LLC division.

Additional information regarding these properties as well as other properties which the Company is working on currently can be found in the Management Discussions section below.

Finance and credit facilities

Dream Homes has secured a line of credit from a private lender for general working capital. This credit line is structured on an on-demand basis, bears an interest rate of 12% APR charged only for funds in use, and is in the amount of $50,000. Though there are no specific uses for this facility at this time, management anticipates that it will be utilized to further expand various aspects of the company. The lender has indicated willingness to fund future real-estate based investments (such as acquisition of buildable lots, construction of new single family homes and single family home purchases for renovation), on an ongoing basis.

Our Products and Services

In addition to educational software, the Rebuilding Blog and the Rebuilding Seminar, the Company offers the following range of services and products: engineering & structural design, soil studies, architectural and design/build capabilities, construction management services, general contracting of all residential single and multi-family construction, helical and timber pile installation, masonry foundations and concrete work of all varieties, management of home elevation and moving projects and complete finish requirements for all interior construction. In the construction space, the Company offers a full turn key solution, from plan design through certificate of occupancy.

Marketing, Sales and Subscriber Support

One of the Company’s most significant strengths is in social media and digital marketing. Due to the fact that content is being regularly generated through the blog and the seminars, there is a constant stream of new information that is being placed on Facebook, Twitter, the Rebuilding Blog and other media channels. The Company’s Dream Building subsidiary is regularly ranked on the first page in Google searches and is a strong source of new inquiries and recurring business. The Company’s web site can be found at www.dreamhomesltd.com and the blog at http://blog.dreamhomesltd.com .

Concentrations

Currently the concentrations of the Company’s operations fall into 3 broad categories, as follows: New construction & development on single lots, renovation/elevation work, and new subdivisions for single and multi-family homes.

Our Markets

The Company seeks to become a fully integrated real estate company specializing in the elevation and moving of homes, development and sale of approved and improved land, and construction of townhouses, single-family homes and various residential properties located throughout southern New Jersey. Our principal real estate operations are currently conducted in the central & southern part of the State of New Jersey, although it is our intention to expand into additional markets based on market demand. It is our observation that the fundamental value of the land in southern New Jersey, particularly areas affected by Storm Sandy and represented by Ocean, Monmouth, Atlantic, Cape May, is currently at pricing levels which have not been seen in New Jersey for 10 – 15 years.

Because of the reduction in land values in New Jersey to levels that we feel represent attractive investment opportunities, we have the opportunity to offer homes at more competitive and affordable pricing levels. Our ability to offer elevation management, complete renovation, demolition and new construction and full architectural and engineering services gives us the ability to offer all clients a full range of services.

Our initial investment goal is to evaluate each property to determine the best path to take in order to maximize potential return for that particular property. With new construction, our intention is to purchase either fully improved or at least fully approved properties. Fully approved properties includes those having all the entitlements and permits in hand, and as needed, to post performance guarantees and/or file subdivision maps, and/or proceed with infrastructure construction, such as utilities, roads and other site improvements. With new construction, we have adopted this business model to help reduce our exposure to the many risks and costs associated with land development.

From time to time, and as we come across an outstanding investment opportunity in land development priced at a level that justifies the inherent risks and costs associated with land development, the Company may contract for, and will bring through the approval process, various types of raw land. The Company will continue to allocate capital in the pursuit of approvals, since the risk/reward of developmental activity is so great. It should be noted that we do not generally take ownership of the property until the approval process has been completed, but rather control the property through contracts and options. In these instances, if we should fail to obtain approvals for any reason, whether through unsuitability, change of zoning or other factors, our loss shall be limited to the money expended for the approvals to that date. Our planned business model includes the acquisition, construction, and sale of a variety of residential properties, including construction of entry-level and first time move-up single-family and multi-family homes.

In addition to offering traditional stick frame construction of our homes, we may also offer modular and manufactured homes, townhomes and condominiums.

In our opinion, the most effective business model for residential development and construction is to target the largest current and future segment of the home buying market, which appears to be primarily first-time and move-up purchasers, as well as those homeowners forced to move or relocate due to Storm Sandy, another storm related event, or obsolescence of their existing property. According to Zillow (http//www.zillow.com/local-info/NJ-hjome-value/r40/), the optimum size and price range for a starter or first time- move up single family home is 1600 – 2000 square feet and $180,000 - $230,000. Townhomes and condominium preferred size and price range is 1400 – 1800 square feet and $170,000 - $220,000.

In our opinion, the southern New Jersey real estate market represents one of the most attractive real estate investment opportunities, with the greatest opportunity for future appreciation being concentrated in Ocean, Atlantic, Cape May, Monmouth and Middlesex counties. These areas primarily fall within 1-hour driving time, and serve as “bedroom” communities for, the Atlantic City, New York and Philadelphia metropolitan areas. In our opinion, the residential housing demand in this area, particularly in the market segments which we intend to address, enjoys a fundamental support level, based on several factors. These factors include excellent air, rail and road infrastructure, Atlantic City casino and support services, tourism, and a central location between Philadelphia and New York. Additionally, there has been a chronic affordable housing shortage throughout New Jersey and all indication are that condition will continue fot the foreseeable future. This situation plays well into the Company’s strengths, which are focused on entry level or first time move up housing, as well as elevations and renovations of existing damaged homes. Finally, all of these market areas have tremendous growth potential due to the effects of Storm Sandy on the available housing supply.

In addition, historically and according to the NJ Housing Affordability Index (http://www.yourhousefast.com/housing-affor-index.asp) which is currently 126, home ownership is more affordable than renting. In this case, the index being above 100 signifies that a family earning the median income has 26% more income than is necessary to qualify for a mortgage loan on a median-priced home, and therefore housing prices in these areas offer much better value than comparable properties in the North Jersey, New York and Philadelphia areas.

Nationwide, affordability is at an all-time high. According to the National Association of Home Builders, the Housing Opportunity Index (HOI) is at a record level, with 75.9% of all new and existing homes sold in the fourth quarter of 2011 considered to be affordable to families earning the national median income of $64,200. See http://www.nahb.org/news_details.aspx?sectionID-135&newsID-15036 for more detail.

Zillow and the NJ Housing Affordability Index are publicly available at the web citations noted above, are constantly updated, and the Company’s management believes them to be accurate and reliable.

Employees

The company relies on certain administrative & payroll support for employees from Dream Homes Ltd., which currently owns 17.91% of the Company. DHL provides payroll services that includes the 2 officers of the Company, as well as certain employees and allocates payroll proportionately as required.

There are currently 13 full time employees, including 2 officers, in addition to a number of part time employees on an as-needed basis, who are being compensated under this arrangement. These include, but are not limited to, the following people listed below. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has not entered into any employment or consulting agreements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The Purchase of the Shares is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Each prospective Investor is urged to consider carefully the risk factors discussed below, in addition to the risks set forth elsewhere, in determining whether an investment in the Company should be made and is appropriate for them. You should not invest in our common stock unless you can afford to lose your entire investment and you are not dependent on the funds you are investing.

Our Board of Directors contains one independent director.

Our board is composed of three members, Vincent Simonelli, Kathleen Dotoli & Richard Pezzullo. Mr. Simonelli and affiliated companies, current own or control 56.80% of the issued and outstanding common stock shares of Dream Homes & Development Corporation. Kathleen Dotoli is the second board member and an independent director. Mr. Pezzullo is an employee of Dream Homes, serving as the VP of Information Technology, as well as third member of the board. The NASDAQ is the exchange that we selected in order to determine whether our directors and committee members meet the independence criteria of a national securities exchange, as required by Item 407(a)(1) of Regulation S-K. An independent director means a person who is not an employee (or a relative of an employee), who has no material business relationship with the company, and is not a significant owner of the company’s shares. Due to our small size, the Company does not presently have a separately designated audit committee, compensation committee, or nominating committee.

Our home sales and operating revenues could decline due to macro-economic and other factors outside of our control, such as changes in consumer confidence and declines in employment levels.

Changes in national and regional economic conditions, as well as local economic conditions where we conduct our operations and where prospective purchasers of our homes live, may result in more caution on the part of homebuyers and, consequently, fewer home purchases. These economic uncertainties involve, among other things, conditions of supply and demand in local markets and changes in consumer confidence and income, employment levels, and government regulations. These risks and uncertainties could periodically have an adverse effect on consumer demand for and the pricing of our homes, which could cause our operating revenues to decline. Failure to achieve revenues, or a reduction in our revenues once achieved, could, in turn, negatively affect the market price of our securities. The homebuilding industry is cyclical, has from time to time experienced significant difficulties, and is significantly affected by changes in general and local economic conditions such as:

● employment levels and job growth;

● availability of financing for home buyers;

● interest rates;

● consumer confidence;

● housing demand; and

● population growth.

An oversupply of alternatives to new homes, such as rental properties and used homes could depress prices and reduce margins for the sale of new homes.

Weather conditions and natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, floods and fires can harm the local homebuilding business.

The difficulties described above could cause us to take longer and incur more costs to build our homes. We may not be able to recapture increased costs by raising prices in many cases because we fix our new home prices up to twelve months in advance of delivery by signing home sales contracts. In addition, some home buyers may cancel or not honor their home sales contracts altogether.

A substantial increase in mortgage interest rates or unavailability of mortgage financing may reduce consumer demand for our homes.

Virtually all purchasers of our homes finance their acquisitions through lenders providing mortgage financing. A substantial increase in mortgage interest rates or unavailability of mortgage financing would adversely affect the ability of prospective first time and move-up homebuyers to obtain financing for our homes, as well as adversely affect the ability of prospective move-up homebuyers to sell their current homes. As a result, once we commence sales, our margins, revenues, and cash flows may also be adversely affected.

If we are unsuccessful in competing against our homebuilding competitors, our market share could decline or our growth could be impaired and, as a result, our financial results could suffer. Notwithstanding that potential risk, the barriers to entry in the elevation/renovation portion of our business are very high, primarily due to the complexity of the home elevation process.

Though competition in the homebuilding industry is intense, and there are relatively low barriers to entry into the new home building business, there is markedly less competition in the elevation/renovation portion of the business. This is primarily due to the complexity and technical difficulty of the home elevation business. Increased competition in the new home building business could hurt our business, as it could prevent us from acquiring attractive parcels of land on which to build homes or make such acquisitions more expensive, hinder our market share expansion, and lead to pricing pressures on our homes that may adversely impact our margins and revenues. If we are unable to successfully compete, our financial results could suffer and the value of, or our ability to service, our debt, including the notes, could be adversely affected.

In the elevation/renovation portion of our business, competition has lessened over the last several years, due to the reasons listed above. Consequently, the Company’s market share of this portion of our business has increased, as competitors have abandoned the elevation / renovation business and focused on new home construction, which is markedly less difficult than completing elevation projects.

We could experience a reduction in new home sales and revenues or reduced cash flows due to our inability to acquire land for our housing developments if we are unable to obtain reasonably priced financing to support our homebuilding activities. Notwithstanding, the elevation/renovation portion of our business should suffer little or no effect for these reasons, since the primary source of funds for this type of project is private and client based.

The new homebuilding industry is capital intensive, and homebuilding requires significant up-front expenditures to acquire land and begin development. Accordingly, we incur substantial indebtedness to finance our homebuilding activities. Although we believe that internally generated funds and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be available to fund our capital and other expenditures (including land purchases in connection with ordinary development activities), the amounts available from such sources may not be sufficient. If such sources are not sufficient, we would seek additional capital in the form of equity or debt financing from a variety of potential sources, including additional bank financing and/or securities offerings. The amount and types of indebtedness which we may incur are limited by the terms of the indentures governing the notes and our other existing debt.

Although as noted above, the new homebuilding industry is very capital intensive, the elevation/renovation portion of our business should suffer little or no effect, since the primary source of funds for this type of project is private and client based. At this time approximately 75% of our revenue is based on elevation/renovation work, which is not subject to any great degree to the availability or lack thereof, of institutional capital. The Company may need to seek out loans from banks to finance these projects. As part of their financing agreements, the banks typically require Vincent Simonelli to personally guarantee these loans. If Mr. Simonelli cannot qualify as a guarantor and there is no one other than him in the Company to provide those guarantees, the financing of the deals may be adversely affected. The exact amount of funding required for each particular property is not clear at the present time but will be determined when full approvals have been obtained and the Company is prepared to take title for each individual property.

We are subject to extensive government regulation which could cause us to incur significant liabilities or restrict our business activities.

Changes in regulatory requirements could cause us to incur significant liabilities and operating expenses and could restrict our business activities. We are subject to local, state and federal statutes and rules regulating, among other things, certain developmental matters, building and site design, and matters concerning the protection of health and the environment.

We may incur additional operating expenses due to compliance programs or fines, penalties and remediation costs pertaining to environmental regulations within our markets.

We are subject to a variety of local, state, and federal statutes, ordinances, rules, and regulations concerning the protection of health and the environment. The particular environmental laws, which apply to any given community, vary greatly according to the community site, the site’s environmental conditions, and the present and former use of the site. Environmental laws may result in delays, may cause expensive compliance programs and us to implement time consuming and may prohibit or severely restrict development in certain environmentally sensitive regions or areas. From time to time, the United States Environmental Protection Agency and similar federal or state agencies review homebuilders’ compliance with environmental laws and may levy fines and penalties for failure to strictly comply with applicable environmental laws or impose additional requirements for future compliance as a result of past failures. Any such actions taken with respect to us may increase our costs. Further, we expect that increasingly stringent requirements will be imposed on homebuilders in the future. Environmental regulations can also have an adverse impact on the availability and price of certain raw materials such as lumber.

We may be subject to significant potential liabilities because of construction defect, product liability, and warranty claims made against us.

As a homebuilder, we have been, and continue to be, subject to construction defect, product liability, and home warranty claims, including moisture intrusion and related mold claims, arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims are common to the homebuilding industry and can be costly.

With respect to certain general liability exposures, including construction defect, moisture intrusion and related mold claims and product liability, interpretation of underlying current and future trends, assessment of claims and the related liability and reserve estimation process is highly judgmental due to the complex nature of these exposures, with each exposure exhibiting unique circumstances. Furthermore, once claims are asserted for construction defects, it is difficult to determine the extent to which the assertion of these claims will expand geographically. Although we have obtained insurance for construction defect claims, such policies may not be available or adequate to cover any liability for damages, the cost of repairs, and/or the expense of litigation surrounding current claims, and future claims may arise out of uninsurable events or circumstances not covered by insurance and not subject to effective indemnification agreements with our subcontractors.

Our operating expenses could increase if we are required to pay higher insurance premiums or litigation costs for claims involving construction defect and product liability claims, which could cause our net income to decline.

The costs of insuring against construction defect and product liability claims are high, and the amount and scope of coverage offered by insurance companies is currently limited. This coverage may be further restricted and may become more costly.

Increasingly in recent years, lawsuits (including class action lawsuits) have been filed against builders, asserting claims of personal injury and property damage caused by the presence of mold in residential dwellings. Our insurance may not cover all of the claims, including personal injury claims, arising from the presence of mold, or such coverage may become prohibitively expensive. If we are not able to obtain adequate insurance against these claims, we may experience losses that could reduce our net income and restrict our cash flow available to service debt.

Historically, builders have recovered from subcontractors and their insurance carriers a significant portion of the construction defect liabilities and costs of defense that the builders have incurred. Insurance coverage available to subcontractors for construction defects is becoming increasingly expensive, and the scope of coverage is restricted. If we cannot effectively recover from our subcontractors or their carriers, we may suffer greater losses which could decrease our net income.

Raw material and labor shortages and price fluctuations could delay or increase the cost of new home construction and adversely affect our operating results.

The homebuilding industry has from time to time experienced raw material and labor shortages. In particular, shortages and fluctuations in the price of lumber or in other important raw materials could result in delays in the start or completion of, or increase the cost of, developing one or more of our residential communities. In addition, we contract with subcontractors to construct our homes. Therefore, the timing and quality of our construction depends on the availability, skill and cost of our subcontractors. Delays or cost increases caused by shortages and price fluctuations could harm our operating results, the impact of which may be further affected by our ability to raise sales prices.

We experience fluctuations and variability in our operating results on a quarterly basis and, as a result, our historical performance may not be a meaningful indicator of future results.

Our operating results in a future quarter or quarters may fall below expectations of securities analysts or investors and, as a result, the market value of the common stock, whether trading or not, may fluctuate. Because of such variability, our historical performance may not be a meaningful indicator of future results. Our quarterly results of operations may continue to fluctuate in the future because of a variety of both national and local factors, including, among others:

● the timing of home closings and land sales;

● our ability to continue to acquire additional land or secure option contracts to acquire land on acceptable terms;

● conditions of the real estate market in areas where we operate and of the general economy;

● raw material and labor shortages;

● seasonal home buying patterns; and

● other changes in operating expenses, including the cost of labor and raw materials, personnel and general economic conditions.

Our future growth may include additional acquisitions of companies that may not be successfully integrated and may not achieve expected benefits.

Acquisitions of companies may contribute to our growth and be a component of our growth strategy. Consistent with this strategy, we may engage in discussions with and evaluate potential acquisition targets, some of which may be significant, although we currently have no binding definitive agreements for any significant acquisitions of companies. In the future, we may acquire other businesses. Because of acquisitions of companies, we may need to seek additional financing and integrate product lines, dispersed operations, and distinct corporate cultures. These integration efforts may not succeed or may distract our management from operating our existing business. Additionally, we may not be able to enhance our earnings because of acquisitions. Our failure to successfully manage future acquisitions could harm our operating results.

The occurrence of natural disasters could increase our operating expenses and reduce our revenues and cash flows.

The climates and geology of the states in which we operate (currently solely located within New Jersey) present increased risks of natural disasters. To the extent that hurricanes, severe storms, droughts, floods, wildfires or other natural disasters or similar events occur, our homes that might be under construction in the future or any of our building lots in such states could be damaged or destroyed, which may result in losses exceeding our insurance coverage. Any of these events could increase our operating expenses, impair our cash flows, and reduce our revenues, which could, in turn, negatively affect the market price of our securities.

Future terrorist attacks against the United States or increased domestic or international instability could have an adverse effect on our operations.

Adverse developments in the war on terrorism, future terrorist attacks against the United States, or any outbreak or escalation of hostilities between the United States and any foreign power, including the armed conflict with Iraq, may cause disruption to the economy, our company, our employees and our customers, which could adversely affect our revenues, operating expenses, and financial condition.

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses, which as a smaller public company may be disproportionately high.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, new SEC regulations, and stock market rules, are creating uncertainty for development companies such as us. These new and changing laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies, which could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. As a result, our efforts to comply with evolving laws, regulations, and standards will likely result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If we are unable to comply with the newly enacted JOBS Act regulations, which lessen if not eliminate the harsher impact of some of the reporting requirements, expenses will remain higher than other companies which are able to meet the new rules. In particular, our efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the related regulations regarding our required assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting and our independent registered public accounting firm’s audit of that assessment will require the commitment of significant financial and managerial resources. We expect these efforts to require the continued commitment of significant resources. Further, our board members, chief executive officer, and chief financial officer could face an increased risk of personal liability in connection with the performance of their duties. As a result, we may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified board members and executive officers, which could slow down our business. If we are unable to fully comply with new or changed laws, regulations and standards, or if our efforts differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, our reputation may be harmed and our stock price may suffer.

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. In addition, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have an adverse effect on our stock price.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our operating results could be harmed. If we are unable to maintain the status of “Emerging Growth Company”, we will be required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm addressing these assessments. Although we intend to augment our internal controls procedures and expand our accounting staff, there is no guarantee that this effort will be adequate.

We may need additional capital in the future, but there is no assurance that funds will be available on acceptable terms.

We may need to raise additional funds in order to achieve growth or fund other business initiatives. This financing may not be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us and may be dilutive to existing stockholders. Additionally, any securities issued to raise funds may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to expand, develop or enhance services or products, or respond to competitive pressures will be limited.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON SHARES

You will not receive dividend income from an investment in the shares and as a result, you may never see a return on your investment.

We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our shares nor will we in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain any future earnings, if any, to finance the operation and expansion of our business. Accordingly, investors who anticipate the need for immediate income from their investments by way of cash dividends should refrain from purchasing any of the securities offered by our company. As we do not intend to declare dividends in the future, you may never see a return on your investment and you indeed may lose your entire investment.

Rule 144

In general, persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months, and any affiliate of the company who owns either restricted or unrestricted shares of our common stock, are entitled to sell their securities without registration with the SEC under an exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

Non-Affiliates

Any person who is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding a sale, may sell an unlimited number of restricted securities under Rule 144 if:

Affiliates

Persons seeking to sell restricted securities who are our affiliates at the time of, or any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to the restrictions described above. They are also subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be required to comply with the manner of sale and notice provisions of Rule 144 and would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only that number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:

Additionally, persons who are our affiliates at the time of, or any time during the three months preceding, a sale may sell unrestricted securities under the requirements of Rule 144 described above, without regard to the six month holding period of Rule 144, which does not apply to sales of unrestricted securities.

Unlimited Resales by Non-Affiliates

Any person who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of ours at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and has held the restricted securities for at least one year, including the holding period of any prior owner other than one of our affiliates, will be entitled to sell an unlimited number of restricted securities without regard to the length of time we have been subject to Exchange Act periodic reporting or whether we are current in our Exchange Act reporting.

Our common stock is a “Penny Stock,” and compliance with requirements for dealing in penny stocks may make it difficult for holders of our common stock to resell their shares.

Our common stock is currently listed in the public market in what is known as the over-the-counter market and at least for the foreseeable future, our common stock will be deemed to be a “penny stock” as that term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Rule 15g-2 under the Exchange Act requires broker/dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain from these investors a manually signed and dated written acknowledgement of receipt of the document before effecting a transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third Parties or otherwise, which could have a material adverse effect on the liquidity and market price of our common stock.

Penny stocks are stocks with a price of less than $5.00 per share unless traded on NASDAQ or a national securities exchange.

Penny stocks are also stocks, which are issued by companies with Net tangible assets of less than $2.0 million (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years); or $5.0 million (if in continuous operation for less than three years); or average revenue of less than $6.0 million for the last three years.

Our stock price may fluctuate significantly, and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the current market price.

The trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and subject to wide price fluctuations in response to various factors, including:

These and other factors may cause the market price and demand for our common stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares of common stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our common stock. In addition, in the past, when the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock have sometimes instituted securities class action litigation against the Company that issued the stock. If any of our stockholders were to bring a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit. Such a lawsuit could also divert the time and attention of our management from our business.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public markets, or the perception that such sales might occur, could reduce the price of our common stock and may dilute your voting power and your ownership interest in us.

If our existing stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, the market price of our common stock could decrease significantly. The perception in the public market that our existing stockholders might sell shares of common stock could also depress our market price

Insiders have substantial control over us and could limit your ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control.

As of December 31, 2017, our principal stockholders, directors, and executive officers and entities affiliated with them owned approximately 79.0 % of the outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result, these stockholders, if acting together, would be able to influence or control matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers or other extraordinary transactions. They may also have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. The concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, preventing, or deterring a change of control of our company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and may materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

As a public company, we are required to:

These requirements entail a significant commitment of additional resources. We may not be successful in implementing these requirements and implementing them could adversely affect our business or results of operations. In addition, if we fail to implement the requirements with respect to our internal accounting and audit functions, our ability to report our results of operations on a timely and accurate basis could be impaired.

Current shareholders and prospective investors are cautioned that any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Such forward-looking statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond our control, and actual results for future periods could differ materially from those discussed in this report, depending on a variety of important factors, among which are our ability to implement our business strategy, our ability to compete with major established companies, the acceptance of our products in our target markets, our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, our ability to obtain financing, our ability to continue as a going concern, and other risks described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements contained in this report speak only as of the date of this report. Future events and actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements. You should read this report completely and with the understanding that actual future results may be materially different from what management expects. We will not update forward-looking statements even though its situation may change in the future.

We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Important factors on which such statements are based are assumptions concerning uncertainties, including but not limited to uncertainties associated with the following:

(a) potential fluctuation in quarterly results;

(b) our failure to earn revenues or profits;

(c) inadequate capital and barriers to raising the additional capital or to obtaining the financing needed to implement our business plans;

(d) inadequate capital to continue business;

(e) changes in demand for our products and services;

(f) rapid and significant changes in markets;

(g) litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties;

(h) insufficient revenues to cover operating costs.

This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of management.

PLAN OF OPERATION

Building on a history of over 1,500 new homes built, the management of Dream Homes & Development Corporation has positioned the company to emerge as a rapidly growing regional developer of new single-family subdivisions as well as a leader in coastal construction, elevation and mitigation. In the six years that have passed since Superstorm Sandy flooded over 30,000 owner-occupied homes, Dream Homes has helped hundreds of homeowners to rebuild or raise their homes to comply with new FEMA requirements. While other builders have struggled to adapt to the changing market and complex Federal, State and local regulations involved with coastal construction in Flood Hazard Areas, Dream Homes has excelled. As many of our competitors have failed, Dream Homes has developed a reputation as the region’s most trusted builder and has even become known as the “rescue” builder for homeowners whose projects have been abandoned by others. Due to the damage caused by the storm, as well as the material changes in the FEMA flood maps which now require over 30,000 homeowners along the New Jersey coastline to elevate their homes, Dream Homes is positioned to capitalize on this opportunity for substantial revenue growth.

Management recognized that the effects of Super Storm Sandy, which occurred on 10/29/12, would be far reaching and cause an almost unlimited demand for construction services, as well as specific construction information. Due to the damage caused by the storm, as well as the material changes in the FEMA flood maps which now require over 30,000 homeowners along the New Jersey coastline to elevate their homes, management feels that focusing on the construction field will continue to provide a stable revenue stream for the company.

In addition to the New Jersey market, the Company, through its Dream Building LLC subsidiary, has become licensed in Florida to pursue recent opportunities for elevation, restoration, renovation and new construction brought about by the damage caused by recent hurricanes. Initial markets to be targeted are located primarily in the southwest portion of the state, between Naples and Cape Coral.

Dream Building LLC. operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Dream Homes and Development Corporation and continues to pursue opportunities in the real estate field, specifically in new home construction, home elevations and renovations. The amount of these projects currently under contract as of December 31, 2017 is $3,243,144.

In addition to the above projects, which are in process, Dream Building LLC has also estimated an additional $5,300,000 worth of residential construction projects and added over 200 active prospects to its data base. All of these prospects are prime candidates for educational videos and short books on specific construction and rebuilding topics, as well as candidates for rebuilding projects to be built under the Dream Building LLC division.

In addition to the projects which the Company currently has under contract for elevation, renovation, new construction and development, there are a number of parcels of land which the Company has the ability to secure, whether through land contract or other types of options. These parcels represent additional opportunities for development and construction potential on the order of an additional 400 - 800 lots and/or residential units to be developed and built within an approximate time horizon of 5 years. Conceivably, this volume of production could yield $120,000,000 - $240,000,000 in gross revenue and $25,000,000 - $50,000,000 in earnings to the Company.

Properties currently under contract to purchase and in the development stage

Dream Homes is in contract and under development for a parcel which will yield 58 new townhomes in the Ocean County NJ area. This acquisition was made for common stock and occurred in the 4th quarter of 2016. This property is currently in the approval process. This development project is scheduled to begin in late 2018 or early 2019 and is projected to add approximately $13,000,000 to the Company’s gross sales, through its Dream Building LLC division.

The Company has received preliminary CAFRA approval for the 58-unit townhouse development. A planning board hearing for preliminary and final site plan and subdivision approval occurred on December 11, 2017, which produced input and comments from the Planning Board as well as surrounding homeowners. Currently, the property is subject to an application with the state planning commission to be designated as a CAFRA Town Center property, which will enable greater density. As such the planning board has agreed to reschedule the hearing pending passage of this planning zone by New Jersey. It is anticipated that this project will be heard again on the June or July 2018 meeting. Sales at retail for this development should be in the $16 million-dollar range.

The Company is in contract and in the approval process for a 7-acre tract in central Ocean County, New Jersey, which will yield 13 single-family lots. This development project is scheduled to begin in late 2018 and is projected to add approximately $4,500,000 to the Company’s gross sales, through its Dream Building LLC division.

Dream submitted a use variance application to the Board of Adjustment for approval for 13 single family lots, which are fully improved. This application was deemed complete by the town engineer and is scheduled for hearing on April 11, 2018. Assuming zoning approval, a planning board application will be made shortly afterward. The construction start date is estimated for late 2018 and these homes are planned for high-efficiency construction techniques, including passive solar roof panels, insulation of R50 in walls and ceilings, low-flow toilets and faucets and LED lighting throughout. Sales at retail for this development are projected to be in the $4 million-dollar range.

The Company has signed a letter of intent and a contract will be signed to acquire the rights to a purchase contract via contract assignment for 48 waterfront townhomes with boat slips in Lacey, NJ. The project is currently in the approval process and significant engineering, environmental, traffic and architectural work has been completed. The property is partially improved with all boat slips built. It has a retail value of $21 million and is expected to start in late 2018 or early 2019.

Properties in discussion with signed letters of intent, not in contract

A revised 3^rd letter of intent (LOI) has just been offered to acquire 70 townhouse lots in Ocean County, NJ and it is Management’s opinion that this property is moving forward to contract.. This property is approved and unimproved. The project is slated to begin in the middle of 2018 and has a retail value of $17 million.

A signed LOI has been offered to build 80 single family lots in Mickleton, NJ to begin early to middle 2018 with a retail value of $50 million This property is approved and partially improved.

A letter of intent (LOI) has just been offered to acquire property to develop 15 single family homes in central Ocean County, NJ and it is Management’s opinion that this property is moving forward to contract. This property is unapproved and unimproved. The project is slated to begin in late of 2018 and has a retail value of $6 million.

A 2^nd signed letter of intent has been offered to acquire property to develop 80 condominium units in an existing commercial plaza in central Ocean County, NJ. This property has been in discussion since September of 2017 and preliminary conceptual, engineering and feasibility studies have been completed. It is Management’s opinion that this property is moving forward to contract. This property, which is a pad site within an existing mixed-use commercial complex, is improved. The project is slated to begin in late summer of 2019 and has a retail value of $16 million.

Discussions have been occurring since December of 2017 and a signed letter of intent has been offered to acquire property to develop 102 townhome units in southern Ocean County, NJ. This property was originally in contract and under development by the Company’s management team during the 2006-2009 period, at which time the project was not finalized due to the financial crisis of 2009. As such, a large amount of engineering, environmental, traffic and architectural work has been completed. It is Management’s opinion that this property is moving forward to contract. This property is not fully approved and is unimproved. The project is slated to begin in late summer of 2019 and has a retail value of $23 million.

These 5 new developments with offered, signed letters of intent, as well as the three developments that we have under contract and in development represent over $108 million in new home construction projects on the books in the near future. This work will occur over the next 3-4 years and is in addition to the elevation/renovation division of the business. Management is very positive about these new developments, as well as the cutting-edge construction technologies being employed to create healthier, safer, more energy efficient homes.

Dream Homes has experienced solid growth in both the new home and elevation divisions, as well as strong additions to our personnel infrastructure, which are just now beginning to bear fruit. Our new Design Center in Point Pleasant has also led to an increase in modular traffic and sales, as well as facilitated and increased client selections throughout our entire region.

The Company was awarded the Ocean County Best of the Best for 2017 in two categories (Best Custom Modular Builder and Best Home Improvement Contractor), which caused significant new awareness and interest from the public. This has led to more showroom traffic, completed estimates and signed contracts. Referrals about Dream Homes are also being generated from many industry professionals, such as architects, engineers and attorneys, who’ve either had clients with abandoned projects or simply want to retain Dream due to superior performance and reliability.

The phrase ‘The Region’s Most Trusted Builder’ accurately describes the company, and is becoming increasingly well known to homeowners in need of elevation & renovation work. The management team has never failed to complete a project in over 24 years in the industry.

The Company’s business model over the last year has been focused on increasing the new home and new development portion of our business, until it represents 50% - 70% of our entire revenue stream, from the current level of 20%. New home development has a much greater scalability and growth potential than elevation/renovation work. The Company has enjoyed steady growth in the renovation/elevation portion of the company and anticipates that by year end 2018 each part of the company (new homes and elevation work) will represent 50% of total revenue. By mid-year 2019, new home construction and development should represent over 70% of revenue.

Management hopes for steady growth in all segments of the company, since the rebuilding process will occur over the next 15-20 years. The combined total number of homes affected by Storm Sandy that will need to be raised or demolished and rebuilt is in excess of 30,000 homes, of which less than 10,000 have been rebuilt. This remaining combined market for new construction and elevation projects in the Company’s market area is estimated to be in the range of $3.4 billion dollars. The company anticipates being able to efficiently address 5% - 10% of this market. Dream Homes’ potential operations include the development and sale of a variety of residential communities, including construction of semi-custom homes, entry-level and first time move-up single-family and multi-family homes.

Among the Company’s other assets that are currently held, are the rights to operate the educational construction seminar known as “Dream Homes Nearly Famous Rebuilding Seminar”, as well as the informational blog known as the “Dream Homes Rebuilding Blog.”

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures. We review our estimates and judgments on an on-going basis. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. We believe the following accounting policies are critical to the judgments and estimates we use in preparing our financial statements.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (Basic net loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period (none for the periods presented).

Nature of Operations

Dream Homes & Development Corporation is a regional builder and developer of new single-family homes and subdivisions, as well as a market leader in coastal construction, elevation and mitigation. In the five years that have passed since Superstorm Sandy flooded 30,000 owner-occupied homes, Dream Homes has helped hundreds of homeowners to rebuild or raise their homes to comply with new FEMA requirements.

In addition to the coastal construction market, Dream Homes will continue to pursue opportunities in new single and multi-family home construction, with 3 new developments totaling 119 units under contract and in development. Dream Homes’ operations will include the development and sale of a variety of residential communities, including construction of semi-custom homes, entry-level and first time move-up single-family and multi-family homes.

In addition to the New Jersey market, the Company, through its Dream Building LLC subsidiary, has become licensed in Florida to pursue recent opportunities for elevation, restoration, renovation and new construction brought about by the damage caused by recent hurricanes. Initial markets to be targeted are located primarily in the southwest portion of the state, between Naples and Cape Coral.

In addition to the Company’s construction operations, the Company holds a bi-monthly “Dream Homes Nearly Famous Rebuilding Seminar”, and publishes an informational blog known as the “Dream Homes Rebuilding Blog”. The Rebuilding Seminar is an educational tool for homeowners who need rebuilding or renovations. This seminar has been presented steadily since early 2013, and is designed to educate and assist homeowners in deciphering the confusion about planning and executing complex residential construction projects. A professional team attends each seminar and presents on a diverse variety of topics, including expert advice from architects, engineers, finance people, attorneys, project managers, elevation professionals and builder/general contractors. The “Dream Homes Rebuilding Blog” is an educational platform written by Vincent Simonelli, which offers comprehensive advice on all aspects of construction, finance, development and real estate. The Blog is located at http://blog.dreamhomesltd.com.

History

Dream Homes & Development Corporation was originally incorporated as The Virtual Learning Company, Inc. (“Virtual Learning”) on January 6, 2009 as a Nevada corporation with 75,000,000 shares of capital stock authorized, of which 70,000,000 shares are common shares ($.001 par value), and 5,000,000 shares are preferred shares ($.001 par value).

On August 19, 2016, Virtual Learning acquired 4.5% of Dream Homes, Ltd. (“DHL”), 100% of Dream Building, LLC (“DBL”) , a wholly owned subsidiary of DHL, and use of all construction licensing and registrations held by Atlantic Northeast Construction LLC (“ANCL”), a wholly owned subsidiary of DHL, in exchange for the issuance of 2,225,000 shares of Virtual Learning common stock to DHL at an agreed price of $.05 per common share.

The majority stockholder and chief executive officer of DHL was also the controlling stockholder and chief executive officer of Virtual Learning. As Virtual Learning and DHL were entities under common control, the acquired assets were reflected by Virtual Learning at DHL’s $0 carrying amount on the date of transfer pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-50-30-5.

From August 19, 2016 to August 23, 2016, Virtual Learning acquired the rights to complete 6 in process construction contracts of ANCL in exchange for the issuance of 2,287,367 shares of Virtual Learning common stock to DHL at an agreed price of $.05 per common share for those ANCL contracts. As Virtual Learning and DHL were entities under common control, the acquired rights were reflected at DHL’s $0 carrying amount on the date of transfer pursuant to ASC 805-50-30-5.

Due to the Company’s change in focus to its construction business, the Company wrote off the remaining unamortized capitalized curriculum development costs of $20,534 at December 31, 2016.

On March 14, 2017, Virtual Learning changed its name to Dream Homes & Development Corporation (“DHDC”). DHDC maintains a web site at www.dreamhomesltd.com as well as a blog, located at http://blog.dreamhomesltd.com.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DHDC and its wholly owned subsidiary DBL (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of five years. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred, and renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles .generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that we would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, GAAP establishes a three-level hierarchy used in measuring fair value, as follows:

● Level 1 inputs are quoted prices available for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

● Level 2 inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

● Level 3 inputs are less observable and reflect our own assumptions.

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and loans payable to related parties. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and loans payable to related parties approximates fair value because of their short maturities.

Construction Contracts

Revenue recognition:

The Company recognizes construction contract revenue using the percentage-of-completion method, based primarily on contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Cost of revenue includes an allocation of depreciation, amortization and general overhead cost. Changes to total estimated contract cost or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined.

The Company generally provides limited warranties for work performed under its construction contracts with periods typically extending for a limited duration following substantial completion of the Company’s work on a project.

The Company classifies construction-related receivables and payables that may be settled in periods exceeding one year from the balance sheet date, if any, as current assets and liabilities consistent with the length of time of its project operating cycle. For example:

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings result when either: 1) costs are incurred related to certain claims and unapproved change orders, or 2) the appropriate contract revenue amount has been recognized in accordance with the percentage-of-completion accounting method, but a portion of the revenue recorded cannot be billed currently due to the billing terms defined in the contract. Claims occur when there is a dispute regarding both a change in the scope of work and the price associated with that change. Unapproved change orders occur when there is a dispute regarding only the price associated with a change in scope of work. For both claims and unapproved change orders, the Company recognizes revenue, but not profit, when it is determined that recovery of incurred cost is probable and the amounts can be reliably estimated.

Change in Estimates:

The Company’s estimates of contract revenue and cost are highly detailed and many factors change during a contract performance period that result in a change to contract profitability. These factors include, but are not limited to, differing site conditions: availability of skilled contract labor: performance of major material suppliers and subcontractors: on-going subcontractor negotiations and buyout provisions: unusual weather conditions: changes in the timing of scheduled work: change orders: accuracy of the original bid estimate: changes in estimated labor productivity and costs based on experience to date: achievement of incentive-based income targets: and the expected, or actual, resolution terms for claims. The factors that cause changes in estimates vary depending on the maturation of the project within its lifecycle. For example, in the ramp-up phase, these factors typically consist of revisions in anticipated project costs and during the peak and close-out phases, these factors include the impact of change orders and claims as well as additional revisions in remaining anticipated project costs. Generally, if the contract is at an early stage of completion, the current period impact is smaller than if the same change in estimate is made to the contract at a later stage of completion. Management focuses on evaluating the performance of contracts individually and uses the cumulative catch-up method to account for revisions in estimates. Material changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the provision for income tax in the statements of operations. The Company evaluates the probability of realizing the future benefits of its deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance when realization of the assets is not reasonably assured.

The Company recognizes in its financial statements the impact of tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (basic net loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Accounting Standards Codification “ASC” Topic 606). The purpose of this ASU is to converge revenue recognition requirements per GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in this ASU were originally effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption not permitted by the FASB; however, in August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date after public comment respondents supported a proposal to delay the effective date of this ASU to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Certain other accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and therefore have not yet been adopted by the Company. The impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations from adoption of these standards is not expected to be material.

4-Deposits and Costs Coincident to Acquisition of Land for Development

Deposits and costs coincident to acquisition of land for development are summarized as follows:

Lacey Township, New Jersey, “Dream Homes at the Pines”, Contract

On December 15, 2016, the Company acquired from General Development Corp. (“GDC”) rights to a contract to purchase over 9 acres of undeveloped land without amenities in Lacey Township, New Jersey (the “Lacey Contract or Dream Homes at the Pines”) for $15,000 cash (paid in December 2016) and 100,000 restricted shares of Company common stock (issued in April 2017) valued at $5,000. GDC acquired the rights to the contract from DHL on December 14, 2016 for $10,000 cash. As discussed in Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies under Line of Credit, the Company also has an available line of credit of $50,000 with GDC.

The Lacey Contract between DHL and the seller of the land was dated March 18, 2016 and provides for a $1,000,000 purchase price with closing on or about 60 days after memorialization of final Development Approvals has been obtained. DHL paid the seller a $10,000 refundable deposit in March 2016 pursuant to the Lacey Contract. In the event the transaction has not closed on at least a portion of the property within 24 months of the completion of the Due Diligence Period (as may be extended by two 6- month extensions), the seller has the option of terminating the contract. Notwithstanding this provision, the Company retains the right at all times to waive any remaining contingencies and proceed to close on the property.

At this time, the contract is in good standing and there is no risk of cancellation. As per the contract, the Company is required to close on this property no later than March 18, 2019, which date is inclusive of the 24-month development period, and 2 additional 6-month extensions.

Due diligence for the above property was completed as of May 17, 2016, and all costs were incurred by Dream Homes Ltd., which was in the contract for the property at the time. No additional costs for due diligence have been incurred by the Company, nor are any anticipated. The Company will incur all current costs associated with this property necessary to obtain all approvals, acquire the land, install the infrastructure and prepare the property to commence construction.

In order to obtain all developmental approvals and be prepared to begin installing infrastructure, various permits and engineering work are required. These permits include but are not limited to township subdivision, county, municipal utility authority, CAFRA (NJ Department of Environmental Protection) and NJ Department of Transportation. To date, design engineering has been completed and a CAFRA application has been prepared and submitted to the environmental scientist, along with a check for $36,750 payable to the NJ DEP. Application for this permit was made in April 2017. As of this date, the CAFRA application has been put on hold pending a determination if the township will be approved by the State of New Jersey for a CAFRA Town Center designation. A permit is expected to be issued in June or July of 2018. A Lacey Township Planning Board meeting was held on December 11, 2017. Additional information was requested from the board and the next meeting will be scheduled upon receipt of outside agency permits and the other requested information.

It is anticipated that complete development approvals will cost approximately $50,000 more to complete. In addition to these approval costs and acquisition costs, infrastructure costs are anticipated to cost approximately $1,000,000. The total amount of funding required to acquire and make this property ready for home construction is approximately $2,090,000 as of December 31, 2017.

The Company may need to seek loans from banks to finance this project. As part of their financing agreements, the banks typically require Vincent Simonelli to personally guarantee these loans. If Mr. Simonelli cannot qualify as a guarantor and there is no one other than him in the Corporation to provide those guarantees, the financing of the deal may be adversely affected. The exact amount of funding required for this particular property is not clear at the present time but will be determined when full approvals have been obtained and the Company is prepared to take title to the property.

Berkeley Township, New Jersey, “Dream Homes at Tallwoods”, Contract

On March 1, 2017, the Company acquired from DHL rights to a contract to purchase over 7 acres of land in Berkeley Township, NJ (the “Tallwoods Contract or Dream Homes at Tallwoods”) for 71,429 restricted shares of Company common stock (issued in April 2017). The Tallwoods Contract between DHL and the seller of the land was dated January 5, 2017 and provides for a $700,000 purchase price with closing on or about 60 days after final development approvals have been obtained and memorialized. DHL paid the seller a refundable $10,000 deposit in January 2017 pursuant to the Tallwoods contract.

The due diligence period associated with this property expired on March 4, 2017 and all costs associated with same were paid by Dream Homes Ltd. prior to the expiration date. The Company will incur no further costs related to the due diligence aspect of this purchase. The Company will incur all current and future costs associated with this property necessary to obtain all approvals, acquire the land and prepare the property to commence construction.

The land is currently improved with streets and all public utilities in place. As such, the necessary steps required to bring the property through the approval process involve primarily design engineering. Since the property is on an improved street, a major subdivision application will be filed with the township, which will create 13 conforming buildable lots from the existing single 7 acre parcel. Accordingly, the remaining costs will primarily involve engineering and approval costs, as opposed to costs associated with the installation of infrastructure.

At this time, the Company estimates that the total engineering and approval costs will be approximately $40,000. The amount of money required to purchase the property is $700,000 of which $10,000 is currently on deposit. The Company has made application to the Berkeley Township Zoning Board.

In the event the transaction has not closed on at least a portion of the Property within 12 months of the completion of the Due Diligence Period (as may be extended by two 6-month extensions), the seller has the option of terminating the contract. Notwithstanding this provision, the Company retains the right at all times to waive any remaining contingencies and proceed to close on the property.

The Company may need to seek loans from banks to finance this project. As part of their financing agreements, the banks typically require Vincent Simonelli to personally guarantee these loans. If Mr. Simonelli cannot qualify as a guarantor and there is no one other than him in the Corporation to provide those guarantees, the financing of the deal may be adversely affected. The exact amount of funding required for this particular property is not clear at the present time but will be determined when full approvals have been obtained and the Company is prepared to take title to the property.

Lacey Township, New Jersey, “Dream Homes at Forked River”, Marina Contract

The Company has acquired the rights to a purchase contract via contract assignment for 48 waterfront townhomes with boat slips in Lacey, NJ. The project is currently in the approval process and significant engineering, environmental, traffic and architectural work has been completed. The property is a waterfront property, and is partially improved with all boat slips currently installed, the Department of Transportation permit received and the curb cut from Route 9 in place. The property when completely constructed has a retail value of $21 million and is expected to begin site improvements in late 2018 or early 2019.

On December 8, 2017, the Company acquired from DHL rights to a contract to purchase over +/- 7.5 acres of land in Lacey Township, NJ (the “Marina Contract or Dream Homes at Forked River”) for 162,200 restricted shares of Company common stock (committed but not issued as of April 16, 2018). The Contract between DHL and the seller of the land was dated February 24, 2016 and provides for a $2,166,710 purchase price with closing on or about 60 days after final development approvals have been obtained and memorialized. DHL paid the seller a refundable $25,000 deposit in February 2016 pursuant to the Marina contract.

The due diligence period associated with this property expired on May 1, 2016 and all costs associated with same were paid by Dream Homes Ltd. prior to the expiration date. The Company will incur no further costs related to the due diligence aspect of this purchase. The Company will incur all current and future costs associated with this property necessary to obtain all approvals, acquire the land and prepare the property to commence construction.

The land is currently approved for a marina and it is the Company’s intention to modify the approvals to a townhome use, as per the ordinance. The property is currently unimproved. As such, the necessary steps required to bring the property through the approval process involve design engineering as well as environmental approvals. Accordingly, the remaining costs will primarily involve engineering, legal and approval costs.

At this time, the Company estimates that the total engineering and approval costs will be approximately $100,000. The amount of money required to purchase the property is $2,430,000 of which $25,000 is currently on deposit.

The Company may need to seek loans from banks to finance this project. As part of their financing agreements, the banks typically require Vincent Simonelli to personally guarantee these loans. If Mr. Simonelli cannot qualify as a guarantor and there is no one other than him in the Corporation to provide those guarantees, the financing of the deal may be adversely affected. The exact amount of funding required for this particular property is not clear at the present time but will be determined when full approvals have been obtained and the Company is prepared to take title to the property.
