About Us
Mitch Harris Building Company is a custom home builder in Southeastern Michigan. We offer a mixture of luxury custom homes, entry-level homes and maintenance-free condominiums. We currently build in 11 of our own developments in Livingston County, but welcome off-site custom homes to those looking to build on their own parcel of land. “Through persistence and hard work,” we have earned a reputation as one of the area’s leading home builders.
Since opening in 1981, we have built over 2,000 homes. To us, this means over two thousand places to provide sanctuary, over two thousand places to raise a family and over two thousand places to share life’s biggest moments. Mitch Harris homes are founded on the tradition of quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. We truly want our homeowners to come home to quality.
We are committed to building relationships with our customers that last as long as their home. From walking parcels to selecting cabinetry, we work with our buyers every step of the way to ensure their home is their vision. We look forward to welcoming you to our Mitch Harris family.
HISTORY
As a teenager, Mitch worked alongside his stepfather, a field superintendent for a Detroit area builder. Mitch initially started with construction cleanup, eventually learned carpentry and other skills and, ultimately, experienced all facets of the business by the time he left for college.
Mitch obtained his real estate and builder’s license and graduated from Central Michigan University in 1980 with a degree in business administration and finance. While working in a real estate office in Howell, a young couple came in needing to find a builder for their property in Milford, Michigan.
“I said, ‘Hey, I’m a builder. I’ll build you a home.’ So I built them a 1,000 square foot ranch,” Mitch said. “That was the first house I built - $50,000. I still remember the sale price.”
Mitch later found an investor and began to build spec homes in northern Brighton. “That’s when I started moving in them,” he said. With just enough furniture and belongings to fit in two pick-up trucks, Mitch lived in his spec homes until they were completed and ready to sell.
“I was on top of the world,” he said.
