allowing them to become part of the roofing system so that they are not nearly as noticeable as other types of panels. All of this forethought has made the process of building a home with Amerisips almost like a simple equation. First, they determine the customers’ budget. Most houses within the Amerisips community St. Johns in the Woods (developed by Pearlstine Real Estate Investment), range between 450 and 700 thousand dollars. But, homeowners are not restricted to this adorable community; they can build on any plot of land. Then, the homeowners decide what style and size they would like. The options are literally infinite because Amerisips does not work from a select number of floor plans. Instead, they

have house designers on staff to adapt a design to fit the customers’ needs. And finally, the future homeowner decides, with their assigned project manager and interior designer, which finishes (including furniture) are desired. “We’re a distributor for the major systems in the building—flooring, furniture, lighting,
solar panels, HVAC, etcetera,” Steve said. “We’re able to give the customer a lot better quality of product for a lesser cost.” Once this equation is complete, the result is a high-performance, LEED-Platinum certified, EPA Indoor Air Plus-certified, and well-appointed EcoShell home ready in as few as 60-90 days. v For more information about Amerisips homes, call (843) 637-4311 or visit amerisips.com.
