The JSM Difference

You have a lot of builders to choose from these days and you likely have a lot of ideas of what an ideal builder would bring to the table for your home. As a team who has spent the last two and a half decades building in a small mountain town, let us give you a few quick things to consider about JSM that we have painstakingly hammered into the fabric of our company and that are not typical characteristics of general contractors in our industry.

Our Defining Characteristics

    Trust

    Trust is the number one factor to success in a partnership. This holds equally true for the relationship between a builder and the homeowner. Trust is not something that can be written into the policy handbook of a company. It has to be part of the company DNA. And it has to start with team members who value integrity over everything else, including self-preservation.

    Value Engineering

    With our long history of building luxury homes combined with our development expertise, we know how to optimize your design to maximize your budget and give you the best home experience. Instead of spending money on expensive structural components or inefficient layouts, your money will be directed to things you see, feel, and encounter daily.

    Our broad market presence gives us pricing tiers with our partners that other general contractors cannot obtain. And, because of our open book process, the savings go directly to you as the homeowner.

    Development

    We have a broad range of experience regarding all aspects of real estate, not just the construction phase. Most homeowners that approach us to build don’t realize the huge value this brings to their project until they experience the ease with which we can handle everything from financing, budget analysis, acquisition, governing bodies, design, value engineering, market consulting, etc. This brings a much more competent partner to the table and not just people who can swing hammers, wear tool belts, and drive trucks.

    Bookkeeping

    Money management is vital when it comes to the success of a business. That is why JSM employs three accounting managers who are dedicated to processing our pay applications and reconciling our budgets with the utmost accuracy. All facets of construction financing, draw processing, taxes, insurance, and more are performed in-house and available to you at any time. This aspect of our company’s accountability is the real litmus test of integrity in an industry that has long been shrouded in dishonesty.

    Time is Priceless

    We have spent years fine tuning JSM to run efficiently by eliminating middlemen, empowering our staff, committing to our partners, not over-committing to work, planning ahead, designing well, scheduling precisely, and clearly communicating expectations with all parties involved. Whether you are trying to move your family here to get life in the mountains started or you are trying to get here so you can wind-down in your retirement years, time isn’t replaceable. There is no reason to spend three years building a house when it should be done in one or two years. It simply requires planning, focus, and resources.
