Our steel home kits with bolt-together red-iron framing assure your family the strongest, safest, and healthiest choice in new home building today!

Our steel fabrication plant holds most of the common energy and U.L. certifications sought after by home builders. Today, Kodiak Steel Homes® offers a wide range of products and services. With a full line of pre-engineered all-steel homes, innovative red iron framing, and a complete catalog of designs, Kodiak has much to offer both contractors and weekend do-it-yourselfers.

"Do not buy a Kodiak home. My floor plan was wrong. They didn't send me my insulation and have been trying to get a refund for 2 years. They also charged me 15% more after the plans went to manufacturing. This has been a nightmare to say it mildly. There are other steel frame home companies out there."

"Project was never completed. Paid over half the cost of the project. Don completed a portion of the project, but then he never came back to finish the project. Called and texted him numerous times to no avail. I wish I had read reviews from previous customers posted here before I hired him. BUYERS BEWARE and do your research."

NVR, Inc. operates in two business segments: homebuilding and mortgage banking. The homebuilding unit sells and constructs homes under the Ryan Homes, NVHomes, Fox Ridge Homes and Heartland Homes. As a corporate entity, NVR, Inc. provides various support functions for each of its sub-entities. These include sales and marketing support, vital human resource specialists, and an advanced information technology department, which provide a network of resources utilized by NVR, Inc. holdings.

"We absolutely love our new Ryan home, which is ready to move into. Jon, the construction manager was true to his word, and had the Home completed by the end of May. However., DO NOT GO WITH NVR MORTGAGE! We were supposed to close June 7, and Martha from NVR knew we wanted an early June close, I was retiring July 1st, and our mortgage was based on my pension MONTHS AGO. Now, a few weeks before closing after we scheduled a TON of services including movers, truck, friends taking off to help, babysitters for kids, and have a buffer of 3 weeks before we have to move out of a rental end of June; Martha tells me they require a certain letter from the pension that I will not receive until mid-july. Because of this they initially said we couldn't close until July. Then it is June 20th. If she provided us with this information months ago, we could have planned differently. Now we are scrambling to figure out what to do. So, I repeat, DO NO GO WITH NVR MORTGAGE. I'm not the only one either. I just spoke to our new neighbors who broke off with NVR and Martha after 6 months before closing because of similar issues. DO NOT GO WITH NVR MORTGAGE!!!! it should be NO STARS FOR NVR MORTGAGE."

"Brian was terrific on the walk-through and suggested a partial roof replacement. He was cost conscious and managed our expectations perfectly. The workers came on time and while there was a lot of equipment and materials on the property, the clean up was top notch! No evidence that a work crew was ever there. Thank you for a job well done!"

"Excellent. I got an appointment for an inspection 2 days after I called. Pat came out, checked out the breakfast area then went up on the roof.(2 story room with a very steep roof) He carefully inspected the area where the leak may have occurred. He shared that there had been previous work done on it. After a thorough inspection, he concluded that a minor fix done by a friend probably solved the problem and that I should watch for leaks during the next 2 days when 3" of rain was predicted. I did as he recommended and found no evidence of leaking. He told me to call him to let him know how I fared during the storm-leak or no leak. If there was a leak he would come back immediately and rectify the situation. Apparently the minor fix took care of the problem. Then the Christmas present--No Charge for 2 hours of his labor. Wonderful company to work with!"

Find a custom home builders FAQs

A construction loan is one of the most common financing options available for building a home. You’ll typically need a high credit score and make a down payment when you apply for the loan. Other alternatives include federal construction loans for active and retired service members, hard money loans, and construction loans backed by the Federal Housing Administration.

Building your house typically takes about seven months from start to finish. According to U.S. Census Bureau data, this timeline is achievable when all tasks are managed efficiently. With effective planning, optimal labor allocation, and proactive resource management, you can complete the construction phases on schedule while minimizing delays and unforeseen setbacks.

To save on home-building costs, consider choosing a smaller design or alternative construction methods. You can lower expenses dramatically by using prefabricated house kits, repurposing shipping containers, or adopting tiny house designs that require as little as $8,000 in material costs. These strategies reduce labor expenses and material waste while delivering a high-quality, efficient home.
