James Engle Custom Homes, LLC, was recognized as the area’s top home builder, according to the February 2011 edition of the Kansas City Business Journal.

It has always represented a dynamic approach to their commitment to high standards of quality, craftsmanship, and customer satisfaction on every level. Jim understands homeowners don't want to wait for answers; therefore, he and his team provide their personal cell phone numbers to each customer and promptly return every homeowner's phone call. This attention to the customer and persistence doesn't end after the customer moves in, either. Engle personally ensures the client’s satisfaction with follow up phone calls long after your new home is completed.
