There are many reasons to build your new home with Schell Brothers, and the one thing that sets us apart the most is our purpose and Culture of Happiness.
We've decided to maximize happiness rather than profit.
Our company has a unique purpose: to maximize happiness rather than profit. Chris Schell left a lucrative career in finance to found Schell Brothers with the sole intent of creating a company that put the happiness of its employees and customers above all else. Chris discovered that a genuine commitment to this purpose has made Schell Brothers surprisingly “successful” by all definitions of the word.
"We believe that focusing on the happiness of our employees and homeowners before anything else makes us the best possible versions of ourselves and that much better at what we do. Our culture of happiness and gratitude permeates everything - it’s what keeps us smiling and coming to work each day." - Chris Schell, CEO of Schell Brothers
Amazing Value
With Schell Brothers, you get the luxury, style, and quality of a high-end custom home without the scary price tag. While most high-volume builders prioritize cutting costs, we use top-notch materials and talented craftsmen and create beautiful, practical homes . . . all at a price that makes you smile.
Ultra Energy Efficient
Your new home won't just look great, it’ll save you money, too. Thanks to features like extra-thick insulated walls and tankless water heaters, your energy bills will be way lower, and your home's value way higher. Win-win.
Let's be honest, when it comes to your home, looks matter. We want you to be proud of your home and that’s why we make sure our homes are as good looking on the outside as they are on the inside.
Our Awesome Team
We're serious about happiness . . . and you'll notice it right away. Our team is friendly, upbeat, and genuinely excited to help you build your dream home. Our vibe is contagious — you’re going to love being part of our family.
Innovative Home Designs
People often say our homes just "feel better." We put a ton of thought into every aspect of the home and pride ourselves on the "livability" of our homes. Our award-winning plans are always evolving to match exactly what you’re looking for.
Picking out your home’s finishes shouldn't be overwhelming and stressful—it should be fun! Our Online Design Studio allows you to explore design ideas prior to meeting with one of our professional designers in our expansive Design Center. Creating your dream home is easy peasy.
Personalization Galore
You shouldn't have to build a fully custom home to get exactly what you want. Choose from tons of options like extended primary suites, gourmet kitchens, home theaters, and more. With Schell Brothers, creating a home that feels uniquely "you" is not only possible, it’s painless!
We're not your typical company. Founder Chris Schell left a lucrative career in finance because he wanted to build something special: a company that puts happiness above profits. Sounds corny . . . we know . . . but you’ll see in our people, your experience, and your home that we are sincere in this mission.
Outstanding Customer Service
If you need us after move-in, we’re right here. Unlike builders who pass you off to their subcontractors for warranty service, we have a dedicated customer care team ready to help whenever you need us.

You're part of your build every step of the way. Our Construction Managers will keep you in the loop, answering questions, giving updates, sending pictures, and ensuring your home-building journey is exciting and stress-free.
Sunlight = happiness. It’s science! Our homes have tons more windows than our competition because natural light is a mood booster. Say goodbye to dark, dreary spaces and hello to brighter days ahead.
