scandinavian home design

Yes, another “best of” list. The problem with “best of” lists is that the curators are often not even from the same area. Lucky for you, we live and work in Minnesota and have clear criteria for what to look for in a Minnesota builder.

We’re going to share real reviews from real Minnesotans who can vouch for these top companies.

So without further adieu, here are our top 10 Minnesota builders.

Michael Lee Homes

While Michael Lee, Inc. was started in 2003, owner David Frosch has been in the home building industry since 1983. Like all the home builders on this list, their homes are truly exceptional. But what really sets Michael Lee, Inc. apart from other builders out there is their commitment to being a custom home builder.

While some home builders say they are custom, they offer variants of a few different designs. Michael Lee, on the other hand, truly allows their clients to design their homes from scratch. From their website: “We empower our clients to create their dream home… communication is key to our process…” When looking for a home builder to work with, ensuring they love to collaborate is a must. Michael Lee fits that bill.
