Our Philosophy
Create spaces that bring people happiness.
​
That's what guides our process. It guides our work building single-family homes, communities, apartments, and centers where people work, shop, or congregate.
​
We have found that constructing special spaces requires a uniquely structured company. That’s why we employ an amazing spectrum of talented professionals. At Magnolia Developments, everyone from engineers to design architects to project managers to designers to landscape architects works in a collaborative environment.
Because of this, we are able to focus on every detail of the build process. The care with which we craft every element, no matter how big or small, results in houses, buildings, and communities with unparalleled quality.
Green Living
Setting the standard.
Most homebuilders construct homes for their customers using standard features and basic materials that are cost-effective for the homebuilders. Your unique new home should be built using the best construction practices that consider energy efficiency, environmental quality, affordability, and life safety. Our homes are built to last. Our environmentally conscientious homes will be there for you and for future generations.
Your new green home will be quieter, more comfortable, and with the benefit of lower utility bills by using an enhanced insulation package, improved house wrapping and air sealing, high performance insulated windows and doors, and a high-efficiency heating and cooling system. The construction helps protect the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The Magnolia Developments Process is Unique
