The Lights on Sheyenne Street in West Fargo early next year, giving clients a comfortable space to do it all–see finishes, discuss floor plans and meet with the team’s onsite real estate team. Streamlining the home building process to make it as easy as possible for clients is their mission and it's the team’s approach and partnerships that make it happen.

What They Do

“We know it can be overwhelming, especially for homeowners looking at building a home to their specifications from the ground up,” said Ron Lemer, senior Vice President at Horizon Homes. “But regardless of what they’re envisioning or where they’re at in the process, we know that having a designated design, real estate, construction and lending team within arm’s reach eases the burden.”

No matter where homeowners are starting from, whether a concept from Pinterest or a floor plan from Horizon’s website, the goal of the process is the same—to create a home that fits the homeowner’s unique needs, wants and budget. The Horizon team is there through it all to provide guidance at every stage, whether homeowners know what they want or are starting at ground zero. They also work alongside each client’s lenders and realtors, whether they’re under the Horizon Homes roof or not.

We’ve worked alongside them on many jobs,” said Doug Lee, market president, Capital Credit Union. “We trust their team and their decision making and are confident that they will help many people build their dream home.”
