New Leaf Custom Homes has specialized in the creation of luxury custom homes for over a decade and over 300 homes in the Dallas Area. Attention to detail, craftsmanship and experience are extremely important to us as we integrate the design team and construction team throughout the entire design-to-build process.
We pride ourselves on our extremely high standard of ethics and honesty and want you to feel like you have been treated fairly. We take responsibility for our work and unforeseen issues. We don't try to pass mistakes on to you with excuses. If you want to change something, we charge you our standard rates-the same rates we bid at the start of the project.
When designing your custom home, we believe you should have access to every design tool and unique idea for your custom home. New Leaf Homes are as individual as their homeowners. Unlike other builders who may recommend several outside designers or architects, our interactive design process centers around you, the client, working side by side with our in-house designers under one roof.

In 2011 my family bought our first New Leaf spec home, and in 2018 we designed and built our second New Leaf (custom) home. The second time around we worked with the in house design team and we really appreciated the streamlined processes and attention to detail. We asked for some unique layouts in our floor plan and Brett knocked it out of the park. Our project manager was professional and responsive and brought us creative solutions when a challenge arose. Yes, New Leaf!

I simply cannot say enough good things about New Leaf. I didn’t think it would be possible to finish the design and build process and love our builder, but Scott, Melissa, and the entire New Leaf crew proved me so very wrong! They were simply incredible! We have been living in it for 3.5 years as of this writing and we absolutely LOVE our new home!!
New Leaf made the daunting task of designing and selecting materials for an entire house as easy as possible and truly fun. They made the build process enjoyable with high quality work, weekly status updates, easy access to a great project manager

New Leaf took my vision of the "Perfect Home" and made it reality. The entire team - from project managers to designers to architect - listened to my ideas and worked with us to create the perfect home within our budget. Highly recommend.

We had our dream home built by New Leaf. From start to finish, this team has been outstanding. We almost think they undersell their services. We toured one of their homes in Lakewood, loved it, then asked them to build our home in University Park. From Brett in Architecture to Melissa, Sam, and Elizabeth in Interior Design to our KILLER Project Manager, Robert, they all exceeded our expectations. In addition to being great at their jobs, they are fun people to work with. We are so thankful. Thank you New Leaf, 5 stars!
