Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to (i) Beazer Homes Indiana LLP, an Indiana limited liability partnership, (ii) Paragon Title, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company, and (iii) Trinity Homes, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company doing business as Beazer Homes (collectively, the “Guarantors”), all of which are remote subsidiaries of Beazer Homes USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Beazer”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by Beazer and the direct and remote subsidiaries of Beazer listed in the Registration Statement, including the Guarantors, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Registration Statement relates to the issuance by Beazer of up to $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.250% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “New Notes”) and the issuance by the Guarantors and certain other subsidiaries listed in the Registration Statement of guarantees (the “New Guarantees”) with respect to the New Notes. The New Notes and New Guarantees will be offered by Beazer in exchange for $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 7.250% Senior Notes due 2023 and related guarantees of those notes. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Registration Statement.

The New Notes and the New Guarantees will be issued under an Indenture dated as of February 1, 2013 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors, the other guarantors signatory thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. We have assumed, with your permission, that (i) the Indenture has not been further amended, modified or supplemented, (ii) the substantive provisions of the New Guarantees, when issued, will be identical to the description of the New Guarantees set forth in the Indenture and (iii) the New Notes have been issued pursuant to the Indenture and otherwise in compliance with the provisions of the Indenture.

The New Notes, the New Guarantees and the Indenture are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Transaction Document” and, collectively, the “Transaction Documents”.
