OUR STORY

Back in 2000 when we were looking to purchase a new home, we searched for over a year. Our realtor was exhausted and suggested that we consider building a home. Even though Darin was a construction professional we didn't know the first thing about building a home for ourselves or even where to start. But, that would all change.

A local Realtor mentioned an "owner builder" home-building program that might work for us. After a meeting with a representative from the company, we knew this was the opportunity we had been waiting for. A month later we signed a contract for the home building program, package, and construction loan and began breaking ground on our new 3,700 sq. ft. home. We spent the next six months building our new home from the ground up, hiring out only the framing of the home to fast-track the timeline. We were both working full-time jobs and raising our two-year-old daughter but our dedication and hard work paid off. The day we moved into the new home we had $85K in immediate equity because we were able to act as the General Contractor and were able to do much of the work ourselves.

I, Tina, ultimately ended up going to work for the home-building company and assisted families all over the U.S. in building their own homes. We even built a second home with the company in 2007. Unfortunately, when the housing market crashed in 2008 the company went out of business and this amazing program ceased to exist. I've never given up on our passion for helping others achieve the dream of homeownership. Although life provided us with different work opportunities we have always had a passion to help others achieve the dream of building a home of their own. This passion is what inspired us to start Honor Built Homes and to help others build their dream homes.

Today, Darin and I work side by side together as a dedicated team. Our first-hand experiences and more than 25 years of construction knowledge ensure the success of each build. At Honor Built Homes we will set you up for success in building the home of your dreams.
