Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 4, 2011, K. Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. (“K. Hovnanian”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. (“Hovnanian”), completed an underwritten public offering of $12,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 10⅝% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”), pursuant to an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) dated April 29, 2011, among K. Hovnanian, Hovnanian, as guarantor, the subsidiary guarantors named therein, and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC. In connection with the consummation of the offering of the Notes, K. Hovnanian, Hovnanian, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee, entered into a First Supplemental Indenture (the “First Lien Supplemental Indenture”), to the Indenture dated as of October 20, 2009 (the “Base Indenture” and together with the First Lien Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”) among K. Hovnanian, Hovnanian, the other guarantors party thereto and the Trustee. The Notes were issued as additional 10⅝% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 under the Indenture.

Hovnanian and most of Hovnanian’s existing and future restricted subsidiaries are guarantors of the Notes. Hovnanian’s home mortgage subsidiaries, joint ventures and subsidiaries holding interests in Hovnanian’s joint ventures, certain of its title insurance subsidiaries and its foreign subsidiary are not guarantors. The Notes and the guarantees are secured, subject to permitted liens and certain exceptions, by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the assets owned by K. Hovnanian, Hovnanian and the other guarantors.

The Notes bear interest at 10⅝% per annum and mature on October 15, 2016. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2011, to holders of record at the close of business on April 1 or October 1, as the case may be, immediately preceding each such interest payment date.

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit among other things, the ability of Hovnanian and certain of its subsidiaries, including K. Hovnanian, to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make distributions on common and preferred stock, repurchase senior secured, senior and subordinated notes and common and preferred stock, make other restricted payments, make investments, sell certain assets, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. The Indenture also contains customary events of default which would permit the holders of the Notes to declare those Notes to be immediately due and payable if not cured within applicable grace periods, including the failure to make timely payments on the Notes or other material indebtedness, the failure to satisfy covenants, the failure of the documents granting security for the Notes to be in full force and effect, the failure of the liens on any material portion of the collateral securing the Notes to be valid and perfected and specified events of bankruptcy and insolvency.

The sale of the Notes was made pursuant to Hovnanian’s, K. Hovnanian’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-173365) (the “Registration Statement”) and the prospectus supplement, dated April 29, 2011, to the prospectus contained therein dated April 18, 2011.

Hovnanian intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes together with cash on hand to fund the redemption of all of K. Hovnanian’s outstanding 11¹/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 (the “Second Lien Notes”) and 18.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (the “Third Lien Notes” and, together with the Second Lien Notes, the “Junior Lien Notes”). As of January 31, 2011, there were approximately $0.5 million aggregate principal amount of Second Lien Notes outstanding and approximately $11.7 million aggregate principal amount of Third Lien Notes outstanding. On May 4, 2011, concurrently with the closing of the offering, K. Hovnanian issued notices of redemption to holders of the Junior Lien Notes specifying a redemption date for the Junior Lien Notes of June 3, 2011.

Hovnanian, Hovnanian, as guarantor, the other guarantors party thereto, and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as successor trustee (the “2017 Notes Trustee”), pursuant to which K. Hovnanian amended the Indenture, dated as of November 3, 2003, as supplemented by the Seventh Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 12, 2006, by and among K. Hovnanian, Hovnanian, as guarantor, the other guarantors party thereto and, the 2017 Notes Trustee, under which K. Hovnanian’s 8⅝% Senior Notes Due 2017 were issued.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     1. Introductory. K. Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell $12,000,000 principal amount of its 10.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Securities”) to be unconditionally guaranteed on a secured basis as to the payment of principal and interest (collectively, the “Guarantees”) by Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Hovnanian”) and the subsidiary guarantors listed on Schedule A hereto (together, with Hovnanian, the “Guarantors”) and issued under an indenture, dated as of October 20, 2009 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, Hovnanian, the other guarantors named therein and Wilmington Trust Company, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by that certain supplemental indenture, among the Company, Hovnanian, the other Guarantors and the Trustee, dated as of the Closing Date (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Securities and the Guarantees will be secured by a first-priority lien on the Collateral (as defined in the Time of Sale Information referred to below). As used herein, the term “Security Documents” has the meaning assigned to it in the Time of Sale Information.

     The Company previously issued $785,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 10.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 under the Base Indenture (the “Existing Securities”). The Securities constitute an additional issuance of notes under the Indenture. The Securities will have identical terms to the Existing Securities, except that interest will accrue on the Securities from their date of issuance, and will be treated as a single class of notes for all purposes under the Indenture.

     The Company hereby agrees with the several Underwriters named in Schedule B hereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you are acting as Representatives (the “Representatives,” which term, to the extent there are no additional Underwriters listed on Schedule B hereto other than you, shall be deemed to mean you, as Underwriter, and the term Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires), as follows:

     2. Representations and Warranties of the Company and Hovnanian. Each of the Company and Hovnanian represent and warrant to, and agree with, the several Underwriters that:

     (a) A registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-173365) relating to the Securities, including a base prospectus dated April 18, 2011 (the “Base Prospectus”), has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”)

and has been declared effective under the Act. For purposes of this agreement (the “Agreement”), “Effective Date” means the “effective date of the registration statement” (within the meaning of Rule 158(c) under the Act) of the Registration Statement or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto (if any) filed prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Such registration statement, as amended at the Effective Date, including the information, if any, deemed pursuant to 430B under the Act to be part of the registration statement at the time of its effectiveness (“Rule 430 Information”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The term “Preliminary Prospectus” means each preliminary prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus which is used prior to filing of the Prospectus (as defined below), together with the Base Prospectus, and the term “Prospectus” means the prospectus supplement in the form first used (or made available upon request of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Act) in connection with confirmation of sales of the Securities, together with the Base Prospectus. Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Act, as of the effective date of the Registration Statement or the date of such Base Prospectus, Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be and any reference to “amend”, “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed after such date under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “1934 Act”) that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. As of the Effective Date, the Company was eligible to use Form S-3 under the Act. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Act against the Company or related to the offering shall have been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Company or Hovnanian, shall be contemplated by the Commission.

     (d) Other than the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, the Company (including its agents and representatives, other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such) has not made, used, prepared, authorized, approved or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, authorize, approve or refer to any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities (each such communication by the Company or its agents and representatives (other than a communication referred to in clause (i) below) an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) other than (i) any document not constituting a prospectus pursuant to Section 2(a)(10)(a) of the Act or Rule 134 under the Act or (ii) the documents listed on Annex A hereto, each electronic road show and other written communications approved in writing in advance by the Representatives.

     (h) All outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company and Hovnanian have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and except, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the Rights Plan of Hovnanian, as described in the Time of Sale Information, not subject to any preemptive or similar rights.

     (n) Each of the Security Documents entered into prior to the date hereof, other than any such Security Documents released in accordance with the terms of the Indenture (the “Existing Security Documents”), has been duly authorized by the Company (if it is a party thereto) and the applicable Guarantors that are parties thereto and has been duly executed and delivered by the Company (if it is a party thereto) and each Guarantor that is a party thereto, and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such parties, enforceable in accordance with its terms except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equity principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; the Existing Security Documents create valid and perfected security interests or mortgage liens in the Collateral to which they relate, subject to no prior liens other than Permitted Liens (as defined in the Indenture); and each of the representations and warranties made by the Company and the Guarantors in each Security Document to which it is a party is true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date.

For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer of Securities to the public” in relation to any Securities in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Securities to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Securities, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State, the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State), and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.

     (c) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company and the Guarantors that: (i) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Securities in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Company or the Guarantors; and (ii) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Securities in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom. For purposes of this provision, “FSMA” means the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.

     5. Certain Agreements of the Company and Hovnanian. The Company and Hovnanian agree with the several Underwriters that:

     (a) Hovnanian will file the Prospectus with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with subparagraph (2) of Rule 424(b) under the Act not later than the second business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement) (or, if applicable, subparagraph (5)) and will file any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 433 under the Act within the required time period. The Company or Hovnanian will advise the Representatives promptly of any such filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) or 433 under the Act.

     (b) The Company or Hovnanian will advise the Representatives promptly of any proposal to amend or supplement the Registration Statement, Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus and will not effect such amendment or supplement without the Representatives’ consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); and the Company or Hovnanian will also advise the Representatives promptly of the effectiveness of any amendment or supplement of the Registration Statement, Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus and of the institution by the Commission of any stop order proceedings in respect of the Registration Statement, as it may be amended or supplemented, proceeding under Section 8A of the Act,

8

and will use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or objection and to obtain as soon as possible its lifting or withdrawal, if issued.

     (c) Before preparing, using, authorizing, approving, referring to or filing any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and before filing any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, whether before or after the time that the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters a copy of the proposed Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, amendment or supplement for review and will not prepare, use, authorize, approve, refer to or file any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Representatives reasonably object.

     (d) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be (or but for the exemption in Rule 172 under the Act would be required to be) delivered under the Act in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, any event occurs as a result of which the Time of Sale Information, Prospectus or any Free Writing Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend the Time of Sale Information, Prospectus or any Free Writing Prospectus to comply with the Act, the Company or Hovnanian will promptly notify the Representatives of such event and will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, at the Company’s or Hovnanian’s own expense, an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission or an amendment that will effect such compliance. Neither the Representatives’ consent to, nor the Underwriters’ delivery of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7 hereof.

     (e) As soon as practicable, but not later than the Availability Date (as defined below), the Company will make generally available to its securityholders an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering a period of at least 12 months beginning after the Effective Date that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act. For the purpose of the preceding sentence, “Availability Date” means the 40th day after the end of the fourth fiscal quarter following the fiscal quarter that includes such Effective Date, except that, if such fourth fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Hovnanian’s fiscal year, “Availability Date” means the 75th day after the end of such fourth fiscal quarter.

     (f) The Company or Hovnanian will furnish to the Representatives copies of the Registration Statement (one of which will be signed and will include all exhibits), if requested by the Representatives, each related Preliminary Prospectus, and, so long as a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, the Prospectus and all amendments and supplements to such documents and each Free Writing Prospectus, in each case in such quantities as the Representatives reasonably request. The Prospectus shall be so furnished as soon as practicable but in no event later than the second business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement. All other documents shall be so furnished as soon as available. The Company will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the Underwriters all such documents.

     (g) The Company will cooperate with the Underwriters and counsel to the Underwriters in connection with the qualification of the Securities for sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives designate and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to general consent to service of process or taxation other than as to matters and transactions relating to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so subject.

     (h) So long as any Securities remain outstanding, the Company or Hovnanian will furnish to the Representatives and, upon request, to each of the other Underwriters, if any, as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, a copy of the annual report to stockholders for such year; and so long as any Securities remain outstanding, the Company or Hovnanian will furnish to the Representatives (i) during

9

any period in which the Company and the Guarantors are not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, as soon as practicable, a copy of each report and any definitive proxy statement of Hovnanian filed with the Commission under the 1934 Act or mailed to stockholders, and (ii) from time to time, such other information concerning the Company or Hovnanian as the Representatives may reasonably request.

     (i) The Company or Hovnanian will pay or cause to be paid all expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including any filing fees and other expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors) incurred in connection with qualification of the Securities for sale under the securities or blue sky laws of the various states, the fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Indenture) and its professional advisers, any costs relating to the creation or perfection of the liens under the Security Documents (including, to the extent that counsel paid by the Purchasers performs work in connection with such creation or perfection of liens, the fees, disbursements and expenses of such counsel in an amount not in excess of $50,000), any fees charged by investment rating agencies for the rating of the Securities, any travel expenses of the Company’s or any Guarantor’s officers and employees and any other expenses of the Company or the Guarantors in connection with attending or hosting meetings with prospective purchasers of the Securities and expenses incurred in distributing the Prospectus, any Free Writing Prospectus and any Time of Sale Information (including any amendments and supplements thereto) to the Underwriters.

     (j) During the period beginning on the date hereof and continuing to and including the date 10 days following the Closing Date, not to offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any debt securities of the Company or any Guarantor or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or otherwise acquire debt securities of the Company or any Guarantor substantially similar to the Securities and the Guarantees (other than (A) the Securities and the Guarantees or (B) debt facilities or commercial paper issued in the ordinary course of business), without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC.

     (k) The Company will, pursuant to reasonable procedures developed in good faith, retain copies of each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is not filed with the Commission in accordance with Rule 433 under the Act.

     6. Certain Agreements of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter hereby represents and agrees that:

     (a) It has not and will not use, authorize use of, refer to, or participate in the planning for use of, any “free writing prospectus”, as defined in Rule 405 under the Act (which term includes use of any written information furnished to the Commission by the Company and not incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and any press release issued by the Company) other than (i) a free writing prospectus that contains no “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433(h)(2) under the Act) that was not included (including through incorporation by reference) in the Preliminary Prospectus or a previously filed Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, (ii) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus listed on Annex A or prepared pursuant to Section 2(e) or Section 5(d) above, or (iii) any free writing prospectus prepared by such underwriter and approved by the Company in advance in writing (each such free writing prospectus referred to in clauses (i) or (iii), an “Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus”).

     (b) It has not and will not distribute any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus referred to in clause (a)(i) in a manner reasonably designed to lead to its broad unrestricted dissemination.

     (c) It has not and will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, use any free writing prospectus that contains the final terms of the Securities unless such terms have previously been included in a free writing prospectus filed with the Commission; provided that Underwriters may use a term sheet substantially in the form of Annex B hereto without the consent of the Company; provided further that any

10

Underwriter using such term sheet shall notify the Company, and provide a copy of such term sheet to the Company, prior to, or substantially concurrently with, the first use of such term sheet.

     (d) It is not subject to any pending proceeding under Section 8A of the Act with respect to the offering (and will promptly notify the Company if any such proceeding against it is initiated during the Prospectus Delivery Period).

     7. Conditions of the Obligations of the Underwriters. The obligations of the several Underwriters to purchase and pay for the Securities on the Closing Date will be subject to the accuracy when made and on the Closing Date of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company and Hovnanian herein, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company and Guarantor officers made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company and each Guarantor in all material respects of its respective obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent:

     (a) The Representatives shall have received, on the date hereof and on the Closing Date, a letter dated such date, in form and substance satisfactory to you, from each of Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP, each an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to Hovnanian, containing the information and statements of the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in or incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information.

     (b) The Prospectus shall have been filed with the Commission in accordance with the Rules and Regulations and Section 5(a) hereof.

The Representatives may in their sole discretion waive on behalf of the Underwriters compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the Underwriters hereunder.

     8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and each of the Guarantors will jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its partners, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or Hovnanian by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter through the Representatives consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

12

     (b) Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Guarantor, their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or the Guarantors may become subject, under the Act or the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or Hovnanian by such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter through the Representatives consists of the following information in the Prospectus: the third paragraph, the first and second sentences of the fifth paragraph, the ninth paragraph and the tenth paragraph under the caption “Underwriting”; provided, however, that the Underwriters shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Company’s or Hovnanian’s failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(f) of this Agreement.

     (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section, for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

     (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Guarantors bear to the total underwriting discounts

13

and commissions received by the Underwriters from the Company under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors or the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim that is the subject of this Section 8(d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this Section 8(d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

     (e) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability that the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability that the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director and officer of the Company and each Guarantor and to each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act.

     9. Default of Underwriters. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default(s) in its or their obligations to purchase Securities hereunder on the Closing Date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date, the Representatives may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on the Closing Date. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default(s) and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur(s) exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives, the Company and Hovnanian for the purchase of such Securities by other persons are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company and Hovnanian, except as provided in Section 10 hereof. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

     10. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, contribution agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, Hovnanian and the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the officers or directors of any Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter, the Company or Hovnanian, the officers or directors of the Company or Hovnanian or any person controlling the Company or Hovnanian, (ii) acceptance of and payment for the Securities hereunder and (iii) termination of this Agreement. If for any reason the Securities are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company as provided herein (other than as a result of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7(c)(iii), (iv) (only to the extent there is a material suspension or material limitation of trading of securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange), (v), (iv) or (vii)), the Company and Hovnanian, jointly and severally, agree to reimburse the several Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by them. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the Company and Hovnanian, jointly and severally, shall be liable for all expenses

14

which they have agreed to pay pursuant to Section 5(i) hereof. The Company and Hovnanian, jointly and severally, also agree to reimburse the several Underwriters, their directors and officers and any persons controlling any of the Underwriters for any and all fees and expenses (including, without limitation, the fees disbursements of counsel) incurred by them in connection with enforcing their rights hereunder (including, without limitation, their rights under Section 8 hereof).

     11. Arm’s Length Relationship; No Fiduciary Duty. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Representatives are acting solely in the capacity of arm’s length contractual counterparties to the Company with respect to the Securities (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering contemplated by this Agreement) and not as a financial advisor, agent or fiduciary to the Company or any other person. Additionally, the Representatives are not advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Representatives shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by the Representatives of the Company, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Representatives and shall not be on behalf of the Company.

     12. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Representatives c/o Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10010-3629, fax no. 212-325-8278 and confirmation number 212-538-0661, Attention: Transactions Advisory Group, or, if sent to the Company or any Guarantor, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., 110 West Front Street, P.O. Box 500, Red Bank, New Jersey 07701, fax no. 732-747-6835 and confirmation number 732-747-7800, Attention: General Counsel; provided, however, that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 8 hereof will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to such Underwriter as set forth in Exhibit C.

     13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

     14. Representation of Underwriters. The Representatives will act for the several Underwriters in connection with this financing, and any action under this Agreement taken by the Representatives will be binding upon all the Underwriters.

     15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

     16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

15

     If the foregoing is in accordance with the Representatives’ understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to the Company one of the counterparts hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement between the Company, Hovnanian, the other Guarantors and the several Underwriters in accordance with its terms.

10⅝% Senior Secured Notes Due 2016

     Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. Principal and Interest.

     K. Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. (the “Issuer,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), a California corporation, promises to pay the principal of this Note on October 15, 2016.

     The Issuer promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note on each interest payment date, as set forth on the face of this Note, at the rate of 10⅝% per annum.

     Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on this Note or the Note surrendered in exchange for this Note (or, if there is no existing default in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a regular record date and the next interest payment date, from such interest payment date) or, if no interest has been paid, from April 15, 2011. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

3. Indenture; Liens; Guarantees.

     This is one of the Notes issued under an Indenture dated as of October 20, 2009, among the Issuer, the Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee (the “Base Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 4, 2011, among the Issuer, the Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base

R-1

Indenture, the “Indenture”). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture will control.

     The Notes are general obligations of the Issuer, secured by first-priority Liens on the Collateral as described in the Indenture and the Security Documents. The Base Indenture limits the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued thereunder to $785,000,000, and the First Supplemental Indenture limits the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued thereunder to $12,000,000, but Additional Notes may be issued pursuant to the Indenture (subject to the conditions stated therein), and the Notes issued as of the date hereof and all such Additional Notes vote together for all purposes as a single class. This Note is guaranteed by the Guarantors as set forth in the Indenture and the Guarantee endorsed hereon.

     Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, duties and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders.

4. Optional Redemption; Redemption with Proceeds of Equity Offering.

     At any time and from time to time on or after October 15, 2012, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the percentage of principal amount set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date.

Year	Percentage
October 15, 2012		107.969	%
October 15, 2013		105.313	%
October 15, 2014		102.656	%
October 15, 2015 and thereafter		100.000	%

     At any time and from time to time prior to October 15, 2012, the Issuer may redeem Notes with the net cash proceeds received by the Issuer from any Equity Offering at a redemption price equal to 110.625% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, in an aggregate principal amount for all such redemptions not to exceed 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes), provided that:

(i) in each case the redemption takes place not later than 60 days after the closing of the related Equity Offering, and

R-2

(ii) not less than 65% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately thereafter.

     If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem appropriate and fair.

     No Notes of $2,000 in original principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption may not be conditional.

     If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

5. Repurchase Provisions.

     If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Issuer to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 principal amount or any multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof of such Holder’s Notes on a date that is no later than 90 days after notice of the Change of Control, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of repurchase as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture.

6. Mandatory Redemption.

     There is no sinking fund for, or mandatory redemption of, the Notes.

7. Discharge and Defeasance.

     If the Issuer deposits with the Trustee money and/or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the then outstanding principal of, premium, interest and Additional Interest, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be, the Issuer, the Company and the Guarantors may in certain circumstances be discharged from the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Security Documents or may be discharged from certain of their obligations under certain provisions of the Indenture.

8. Registered Form; Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

     The Notes are in registered form only without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and any multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. A

R-3

Holder may register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, there are certain periods during which the Trustee will not be required to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Note or certain portions of a Note.

9. Persons Deemed Owners.

     The registered Holder of this Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

10. Defaults and Remedies.

     If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. If a bankruptcy or insolvency default with respect to the Issuer or the Company occurs and is continuing, the Notes automatically become immediately due and payable. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Notes. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of remedies.

11. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver.

     Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Security Documents may be amended or supplemented, or future compliance therewith may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, and with respect to the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent and Wilmington Trust Company (as Mortgage Tax Collateral Agent), may amend or supplement the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees or the Security Documents to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or if such amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Holder.

12. Trustee Dealings With Issuer.

     The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its affiliates, with the same rights as if it were not Trustee; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate such conflict, apply to the Commission for permission to continue or resign.

R-4

13. No Recourse Against Others.

     An incorporator, and any past, present or future director, officer, partner, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Issuer, the Company or the Guarantors shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer, the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture or the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.

14. Governing Law.

     THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

15. CUSIP Numbers.

     Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Note Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

16. Authentication.

     This Note is not valid until the Trustee (or Authenticating Agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

17. Abbreviations.

     Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian) and U/G/M/A/ (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

     The Issuer will furnish a copy of the Indenture to any Holder upon written request and without charge.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Hovnanian”), and to K. Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., a California corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hovnanian (“K. Hovnanian”), and to certain other subsidiaries of Hovnanian (the “Subsidiary Registrants”) in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-173365) (the “Registration Statement”) filed by Hovnanian, K. Hovnanian and the Subsidiary Registrants with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the issuance thereunder by K. Hovnanian of $12,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 10⅝% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”), unconditionally guaranteed (each a “Guarantee,” and collectively, the “Guarantees”) on a senior secured basis by Hovnanian and the Subsidiary Registrants (together, in such capacity, the “Guarantors”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated April 29, 2011, among K. Hovnanian, the Guarantors and the underwriter named therein (the “Underwriting Agreement”).

     We have examined the Registration Statement as it became effective under the Securities Act; K. Hovnanian’s and Hovnanian’s prospectus dated April 18, 2011 (the “Base Prospectus”), as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated April 29, 2011 (together with the Base

Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), filed by K. Hovnanian and Hovnanian pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act; the Indenture dated as of October 20, 2009 (the “Base Indenture”), among K. Hovnanian, Hovnanian, the other Guarantors party thereto and Wilmington Trust Company, a Delaware banking corporation, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 4, 2011 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among K. Hovnanian, Hovnanian, the other Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee; a duplicate of the global note representing the Notes; a duplicate of the Guarantees annexed to the Notes; and the Underwriting Agreement.

     We also have examined the originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such corporate and other records, agreements, documents and other instruments and have made such other investigations as we have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied upon certificates or comparable documents or statements of public officials and of officers and representatives of Hovnanian and K. Hovnanian.

     In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. We also have assumed that the Indenture is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Trustee.

     Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that:

2

1.	Assuming the Notes have been duly authorized, executed and issued by K. Hovnanian and, assuming due authentication thereof by the Trustee, the Notes constitute valid and legally binding obligations of K. Hovnanian enforceable against K. Hovnanian in accordance with their terms.
2.	Assuming the Guarantees have been duly authorized, executed and issued by the Subsidiary Registrants, and assuming due authentication of the Notes by the Trustee, the Guarantees constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Guarantors enforceable against the Guarantors in accordance with their terms.

     Our opinions set forth above are subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

     We do not express any opinion herein concerning any law other than the law of the State of New York, the federal Law of the United States and the Delaware General Corporation Law (including the statutory provisions, all applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting the foregoing).

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K of Hovnanian filed with the Commission in connection with the closing of the offering of the Notes and to the use of our name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus.

Very truly yours,
