Our Story

The John Houston Homes Story


In 2005, John & Tracy Houston started a home building business with a mission to Reach People for Christ and Give to the Kingdom. With a handful of employees, they built a few homes in those first years and began a journey that would help people find their way Home in more ways than they could have imagined.


Today, almost twenty years later, John Houston Homes is employee-owned by over 100 team members, is ranked amongst the top home builders in the United States, and builds hundreds of homes a year in four major market areas across 40+ communities.

This founding mission continues to be the heart and soul of the business and a driving force behind subsequent companies established under the home brand. What has also endured, is a strong focus on bringing life-giving relationships to the home building journey with the families who buy and build homes with us, and in the communities in which we build. We are not just in the real estate business; we are in the people business. Read more about the Houseold Group.

Proud to be Employee Owned Since 2020

John Houston Homes became an employee-owned company in 2020. This means that every employee has a vested interest in fulfilling a shared mission and vision while delivering quality homes to our families.
