Satisfied Clients Are Our Goal Here’s what a few have to say about their experiences building with JMH

Peter & Shirley Gaal
“What I really appreciated in the financial aspect of building the house was that we laid out the budget, we had periodic updates on how we were doing to the various targets so when we came to the end there were no surprises. We knew step by step what we were doing and felt very confident in that.”

Jodee Kolanowski
“Working with Maggie? Not that I liked, I loved working with her, designing every element of the home from the ground all the way to the roof. She listened she and Walter listened to my husband and my desires, our vision. They truly took their time and make our dream come alive.”

Gene & Felicia Brown
“This was our first custom build, Maggie was on top of everything, trustworthy, she became family, always had our best interest at heart. Even after closing Maggie was always just a phone call away.”

Susan McHugh
“There is so much about this house that I love. I love all the windows, the birghtness we hardly ever have lights on because there is so much natural light.”
