Lot Selection & Design Planning

It all starts with the perfect piece of land. We’ll help you select your lot or build on your own lot, then we’ll collaborate with our draftsman and designer to shape a home that fits the space and your life. Together, we’ll translate your ideas into a custom plan that balances comfort, function, and style.

Home Designs

You’ll work directly with Dale Dingman and one of the top residential designers in the Twin Cities to create a home that’s as efficient as it is beautiful. Every design is reviewed by our team and trade partners for improvements before construction begins, ensuring nothing is left to chance. Every plan is fully customized to fit your family’s lifestyle.

Construction Process

The process begins with a pre-construction meeting where we’ll review every detail: house placement, lot grading, drainage, and build schedule. You'll also be able to work with an interior designer, if desired, to select materials. As your home comes to life, you’ll get to see the quality firsthand.

Finishing Touches

After inspections and quality checks, we’ll finish your home with cabinets, trim, paint, flooring, and landscaping. Before move-in, we’ll walk you through how everything works—from changing furnace filters to using the fireplace—so you feel confident and informed in your new home.

Model Homes

Our model homes are built to showcase the quality, style, and features available when you build with us. You can walk through a finished space, explore floor plan options, and get a feel for the possibilities. Eventually, each model home is sold, so if you fall in love with one, it could be yours!
