My opinion…..

I’m glad Foundation Homes will be building in Southwood.  There is a need for a quality custom builder in the community.  Their price point is compelling, and you’ll find that they can build a brand new home that features quality finishes and craftsmanship, all at an affordable price.  If you have struggled to find the right home for sale in Southwood, why not consider building something exactly the way you want it.  With prices that compete with the resale homes currently on the market.   You owe it to yourself to take a closer look at what Foundation Homes has to offer.  Call me for more details on lot availability and pricing.  If you would like a proposal we can take care of that as well.  Bring your own plan or build something totally unique.
