delivering innovative design, incomparable choices and a high level of inspired customer service to hundreds of communities in more than 14 cities. David Weekley Homes is the first home builder in history to attain the coveted Triple Crown in Homebuilding awards, an honor that includes “America’s Best Builder,” “National Builder of the Year,” and the “National Housing Quality Award.” While it is an honor to be recognized by peers and business leaders, customer satisfaction will always be the yardstick by which the company measures its true success.
“Vendor participation for the Benefit Home has been overwhelming,” says Rick Moore, David Weekley Homes Houston area president. “From the contractors to the suppliers, everyone has stepped up with open arms and donated their time, money and resources unselfishly. I am amazed at the outpouring of support and donations David Weekley Homes has received. It is a true testament as to what a great project this is and how it will impact lives.”
As a company, David Weekley Homes' purpose is to "Enhance People’s Lives: Our Team Members, Our Customers and Our Community." David Weekley Homes has taken a proactive approach within the community by devoting time, efforts and money into projects like the Habitat Home. They build homes that enhance people’s safety and security and provide families a place where they can have a positive community experience.
"Knowing we have the opportunity to make even a small difference for Texas Children’s Cancer Center, the Alzheimer’s Association and HomeAid Houston, is what David Weekley Homes is all about—enhancing people’s lives!" adds Moore.
About the Project
Each year, two homes are built for the Benefit Homes Project with the help of donated materials and services by GHBA members. These luxurious homes are constructed with numerous upgrades and amenities. They are sold at market value. When sold, the majority of the proceeds benefit three local charities—Texas Children’s Cancer Center, the Alzheimer’s Association and HomeAid Houston. Since the Project began 31 years ago, more than $6 million has been raised.
“Homes built for this fundraiser bring hope and care to so many of all ages,” said Don Klein, chairman of the Project. “The family who buys a Benefit Home buys a Home for Good. This means their investment is incorporated into the care of children with cancer, the elderly suffering from Alzheimer’s and families and individuals facing homelessness. What better place to buy your dream home and help the less fortunate than in a community like Bridgeland.”
A second home is being constructed for the Benefit Homes Project. It is being built by Newmark Homes in Towne Lake just off Barker Cypress near Hwy 290. Caldwell Companies donated the homesite. The 3,973 sq. ft. home’s retail value is $492,059 and its Benefit Home selling price is $395,000 which translates into $97,000 worth of free upgrades. Contact Duke and Susie at Newmark at 281-304-2946 for more information.
