Murray Homes is a luxury, custom waterfront homebuilder in Sarasota, Florida.

I meet homeowners to shoot tesrimonial and partners to conduct interviews for our marketing campaigns and everyone of them feels the same about how Murray Homes continually puts the customer first, knows every aspect of building code (expecially importamt for waterfront builds) and builds exceptional, well crafted homes.

I found Murray Homes to be extremely professional and helpful. They are very knowledgeable and helped educate me on many aspects of our rehab so I could make intelligent decisions that I was comfortable with. They assigned a foreman to my project that is outstanding and saw it through from beginning to end. I have heard many stories of questionable workmanship by other contractors from other condo owners and feel very fortunate to have had Murray Homes working on my behalf. The quality standards of work that are their trademark exceeded my own expectations. I strongly recommend them.

We are a custom interior design firm and recently completed a project with Murray Homes. Working closely with the Murray team was a seamless collaboration met with enthusiasm for a year and a half. Murray Homes consistently communicated with team members throughout the process and tackled very custom details with careful thought and precision. I recently sat with the homeowners who expressed A++++ satisfaction for Steve & the Murray Homes team, the architect and interior design. It was my pleasure to work with such a results oriented team and I look forward to the next project with Murray homes and the ultimate end result of another satisfied client.

From the start of the design process to the final walk through, Murray Homes exceeded our expectations! Steve Murray's level of integrity is apparent throughout his entire organization including the subcontractors he hires. Our project manager was the BEST with his experience and temperament to make it happen no matter how challenging the situation! Each month, we were given detailed, inclusive statements and budget reports so there were no unwelcome surprises. Our house is truly a dream come true, and without hesitation, I would highly recommend Murray Homes!

Working with Murray Homes is a pleasure.
I am a German immigrant and design custom residential homes, I am used to a organized and professional work environment, in my opinion, that is not easy to find in Florida. Working with Murray Homes is straight forward and easy. I highly recommend Murray Homes. If you want to built, they should be on your interview list.

As an Interior Designer, I have had the pleasure of working with Steve Murray and his staff on numerous projects over the years. He goes above and beyond with all of his Clients throughout the Construction process to ensure their ultimate satisfaction is achieved. It is evident in his work that his ability to pay attention to detail, the quality of his construction, and the way he works one on one with his Clients that he is truly a unique builder. Working with Steve and his Staff is always a Team effort, and that’s what I enjoy the most about working with him. It is what ultimately creates a one of a kind custom design. I look forward to continuing working with him and his wonderful staff!

Steve Murray's team did an amazing job on our canal-front home. We were 2,500 miles away for most of the construction using technology to stay in touch and on top of things. Only had two "bumps in the road" which were handled quickly and to our complete satisfaction. Murray Homes completed the project on time and on budget. I would hire Steve again and whole-heartedly recommend Steve to anyone who wants to build a quality home on or near the water. The project is over - the punch list is completed and we are enjoying our new home.

As a high end supplier of imported Italian kitchens, we get the opportunity to work along side the best in the construction industry. As far as General Contractors are concerned, Murray Homes has been an absolute pleasure to work with. When professionalism, attention to detail and willingness to problem solve is crucial to the success of a project, Murray Homes and their very competent staff has delivered to a much higher level than we would expect from the trade. Our last project with them was a noteworthy residence on Long Boat Key and I know that the client is elated with the end product as he rightfully should be. Well executed with high level of quality - all backed by the solid management that is Murray Homes.

Murray Homes is outstanding! In 14 months MH constructed a custom, waterfront 5,000 square foot home with attention to detail and quality beyond any reasonable expectation. Supervision was constant, sincere and efficient; MH ownership attention and presence was constant with unlimited accessibility; all subcontractors were respectful and delivered as contracted; flexibility and interest in responding to the unexpected (which is ordinary and customary for everyone at some point) was amazing. I could not more highly recommend Murray Homes.

Murray Homes completed our home on St. Armands Key in June of 2013. Steve Murray and his staff make the building process stress-free. Everyone from the superintendents to the office staff are highly professional and extremely organized. I would highly recommend Murray Homes if you are looking to build or remodel in the Sarasota area.

We are thrilled to have developed a relationship with Steve and his team at Murray Homes. His thoughtful attention to his craft is remarkable, and illustrates his understanding of the residential design process. He is extremely organized and exemplifies integrity. His background in real estate and construction allows him to balance the value of real time costs with the value of aesthetic decisions. We look forward to many more projects with this exceptional builder.

Murray Homes are consummate professionals and a pleasure to deal with.
Not only are they incredibly creative, their understanding of the design, build and sales process is second to none. Also in a day where integrity is a rare commodity they stand by their promise and deliver. I would never hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a luxury waterfront builder in Sarasota.

Team Murray have now built or upgraded 11 homes for me in the Sarasota area. I am now
looking to build the 12th with them. I guess this would show as to how I give them a 5 Star rating.

My husband and I partnered with Murray for design consultation and construction of a waterfront home. For most of the project we were not living in the area, making communication and organizaiton essential. We appreciated the expertise, knowledge and ideas the entire Murray team brought to the table through the course of the project. We love our home. We still feel as though Murray is a partner with us in maintenance. Lastly, and most important, we are proud to part of the Murray family.
