We take our name seriously.

Five Star—that’s the level of service we strive for and work to earn every day. Start to finish, we simplify the process of building a fixed-price home on your lot. You hand us your wishlist, we’ll hand you design and construction options that make it possible: on-budget, on-time, and minus the overwhelm. Starting with price transparency from day one.

Before and throughout construction, you’ll stay connected through easy, organized communication and no-nonsense meetings, milestone after milestone, until we celebrate move-in day together.

We make dreams of home ownership come true on your terms. Treating our customers right is nonnegotiable. In fact, you might’ve heard about us from a past customer. We’re proud to say we’ve grown organically, by word-of-mouth, thanks to the homeowners, real estate agents, and community members we’ve had the privilege to serve, so far. Our community is our extended family.

That’s why we work every day to keep the Five Star way sharp and keep our customers talking—for the right reasons.

Because in our book, doing things right is the only way. The Five Star Way.

The right way is the only way we work

Or as we call it, the Five Star Way.

the Right Home.

We will build a house you love that is also the house you need. With various construction styles to choose from plus a design center where you select all your finishing touches, you make your home, home. Then, we build it. Depending on the model, land costs, amenities and features, our home prices range from $150,000 - $750,000.

In the right place.

We love East Tennessee. That’s why we build here, within a 75 mile radius. We’ll never be nationwide or even statewide, and we only build in surrounding counties, including: Claiborne, Union, Hamblen, Knox and Loudon and in areas like Speedwell, Sharps Chapel, Harrogate, New Tazewell, and Lenoir City. If you’re new here, let us be first to say: Welcome.

Built by the right people

Our family heritage and more than twelve years of area building and business experience mean we know this place, its people, the backroads, and the best stop for coffee. We’re locals, proud to build for our neighbors. Almost every person we’ve served, so far, found us through someone else we’ve helped. Word-of-mouth speaks for itself.

Built on-time, every time.

Yes, really. Our home finishing dates are guaranteed. With a fixed-cost, build-on-your-lot contract, you won’t have to worry about extensive delays or rescheduled move-in dates. Every Five Star Home built to-date has been finished and move-in-ready on-time—sometimes sooner.

Built the right way.

Our customers come first. In our book, doing the right thing is the only way to do business—we hold ourselves to this standard. We keep our word and communicate clearly. We are innovative and progressive where it counts. We can absolutely help guide your choices but we won’t push any choice, ever. Our goal is that you love working with us almost as much as you love living in your new house. Almost.
