Abstract
In December 2022, Jack Munroe, president of Munroe Homes Ltd (Munroe), is trying to determine if his firm should take on a new development called Creekside Estates near Caledon Village, Ontario. Munroe began as a builder of modest homes on a large scale; the Creekside Estates opportunity involved developing high-end custom homes. Jack's decision will have a significant effect on Munroe's future strategy. Munroe can stay within its comfort zone and continue building large numbers of entry-level or mid-level homes or the company can choose to move into the high-end custom home segment. Jack needs to consider what changes will be necessary to position the Creekside Estates opportunity for success.
