Take a closer look at our family run business and the people that make our organization what it is today. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree they say. And Elisa is no exception. Since early on, Elisa knew she would be involved in real estate. Watching her father build homes and being exposed to the home building process since a child, has created a lifelong passion for designing floor plans, and as she says, "putting the puzzle together".
This all started at the ripe age of 10. After graduating from Florida State University with a BS in Interior Design, Elisa moved to Atlanta where she worked for several commercial design firms on everything from retail build-outs, pharmaceutical clean rooms to high-end condominiums. In 2003, she decided it was time to move back home and join her father in the family business.

As St. Petersburg's top custom home builder, we are a family-owned business dedicated to building superior homes with unparalleled customer service. Our team of experts pride themselves on innovative design, elegant craftsmanship, and professional integrity. We give our clients personalized attention and guidance at every stage of their build.
When you're ready to build a custom home, LaBram Homes will be there every step of the way. Together, we'll build the home of your dreams with a proven process, personalized for you. Our initial consult determines the build options available for your budget, timeline, and vision. We will also discuss the timeframe you can expect it take to design and build your custom home.
At LaBram, we collaborate with our homebuyers at every phase of the construction process. From laying the foundation to finishing the final walkthrough, you'll know what to expect. When your home is complete, we do a thorough walkthrough to ensure the excellence and integrity of our work. Our team of experts is committed to clear communication and ongoing collaboration.
For Labram clients who want an alternative (or complement) to cash financing, our partner lender can offer construction-to-permanent loans to eligible buyers. Simply put, this loan starts as a construction loan and becomes a mortgage loan once you move into your new custom home. There are several advantages to using the construction-to-permanent loan including single closing, reduced fees and interest-only payments during construction.
BuilderTrend is a cloud-based software that lets you communicate with our construction manager, and track the progress of your new home. Our clients' favorite feature? You can share photos of your finishes, designs, and construction with friends and family directly from the app. With BuilderTrend, your questions are answered sooner, your action steps are clearer, and the people closest to you stay in the loop.

Elisa and Josh have been great to work with through the entire design process of our new home! My husband and I met with multiple builders to start the process for our new build; We knew immediately after sitting down with Elisa and Josh that we wanted LaBram to take on our project- we can’t want to start our build!

Working with LaBram Homes was an absolute pleasure! Their ability to take our ideas and requests and turn them into beautiful designs exceeded our expectations for our specific lot. They took advantage of the shape and size of the lot with close attention to detail every step of the way! The LaBram team is fantastic and I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a truly beautiful quality custom home!

I've had the pleasure of selling several LaBram Home properties in the past and I've always found Elisa & Josh to be pro active, responsive and extremely accommodating to the needs and desires of buyers of their homes. With a focus on quality and high standards, they help make the buying experience pleasurable and I highly recommend using LaBram Homes.
