**★★★★★ — John Davidson, May 2019**

> We love our home! Every aspect of the build was handled in a professional manner. This was our first build; and Willis Custom Homes worked with us at each critical point in the process to make sure that the features we wanted in the home ended up satisfying our expectations. If a feature from the architectural plans ended up not looking the way we anticipated, Willis Custom Homes would make immediate efforts to satisfy our desires without breaking our budget. If we ever build again, we’ll be sure to contact Willis Custom Homes.

**Comment from Willis Custom Homes & Development:**

> Mr. John,

> You're home is gorgeous and I had such a great time working with you and your wife. You guys have excellent taste and were an absolute pleasure to work with. I hope you enjoy your home and that we can work again in the future.

**★★★★★ — Kevin Gossen, April 2019**

> Ian recently did an involved renovation for a home that I originally designed for my parents, that is now my Brothers home. He did what was asked as well as what he said he would do. I would easily recommend Ian for any of your construction needs. Hard working, conscientious, and deserving of success.

**Comment from Willis Custom Homes & Development:**

> Thank you Mr. Kevin! It was such a pleasure working with you and Mr. Jim. The space turned out beautiful thanks to your vision. I hope we can work together again in the future.
