At Hibbs Homes, we are laser-focused on giving our clients better-built homes. We've been recognized time and again for just that - homes that are beautiful, durable, and highly energy efficient.

Build On Your Land
As a dedicated custom home builder, we build on your land. If you have already secured a lot in your dream location, our team is happy to visit the lot and provide you with feedback regarding topography and suitability for construction.
If you haven't found a lot yet, we work closely with multiple Realtors who are highly experienced in locating land opportunities. While you can certainly search Zillow, we recommend that you partner with a Realtor, because buildable lots are often hard to find and sell quickly. Realtors often work at no cost to you and can move forward with your land search quickly - providing you with more options to consider along the way. Looking for a Realtor referral? Reach out. We're happy to connect you with our in-house real estate team or one of our experienced Realtor partners.
- With Kim's help we were able to better understand building restrictions in our location of interest and what that meant for lot size. That allowed us to hone in our target lot size, figure out prices paid by other builders, and be prepared should an opportunity present itself. Kim happened upon a lot that fit all of our criteria and that prior preparation allowed us to move quickly to secure the lot.

Building a New Home in St Louis County
Clients turn to us to uncomplicate the process of building a luxury home in St Louis, MO. Our decades of experience working with local municipalities like Wildwood, Kirkwood, and Town and Country means we are able to stay on top of the permitting and architectural review process unique to those suburbs.
Building a home in one of the historic St Louis suburbs is one of the best ways to have a more comfortable, energy-efficient, and healthier home while living close to the heart of these cities. Finding land that hasn't been developed in these areas can be a challenge, which is why we recommend working with one of our knowledgeable Realtor partners to find land primed for infill building. As the housing inventory in areas like Kirkwood ages, opportunities to find homes that are being sold for demolition are more common. Hibbs Homes has been recognized as an infill builder of merit because we work closely with the architect, designed, and homeowner to build a home that fits within the character of the neighborhood.
