What to Expect

The idea is to make the process as easy and tailored to the client as possible. Clients start by browsing our floor plans and choosing one they're most interested in. Then, they schedule an appointment to visit our office and go over the details.If you already have land, bring your land papers. If you have an existing plan but need more help, bring that too. You’re not stuck with one floor plan — we’ll help you build YOUR home the way you want it.


During the planning stage, you can add stories, rooms, driveways, or anything else. Once we get to building, you’ll choose your floors, windows, doors, and light fixtures — and we’ll guide you every step of the way.


We don’t upsell unnecessary add-ons. If you want a custom flooring, it’ll reflect in your final cost, but the goal is for your home to be exactly what you dreamed of.


We handle everything — from clearing the land and drawing up the floor plans, to installing electricity, sewers, and lighting.

Everyone at Ken Broadwater Homes was so pleasant and helpful when my husband and I–two newly-weds–went through the process of building/buying our first home. From our first initial meeting with Ken and Laura, to every vendor they connected us with, everything went well and we were and still are, going on three years later! so pleased with both the quality of the craftsmanship and the quality/character of their people. We would and have recommend Ken Broadwater Homes to anyone who’s looking to build a home.

This is our second home we have built with Ken Broadwater Homes and we love this one even more than we loved the first one. Ken is a customer oriented builder who truly does “listen” to his clients. He aligns himself with great subcontractors who are courteous and pleasant to work with. If something does need to be “tweaked” he makes it happen in a timely matter to meet his customers wants and needs. We really enjoy working with Ken because we take pride in our home and so does he.
