Post: Builder's Risk - Dallas, TX

Hello all,

I have asked my broker to help find a builder's risk policy in Dallas and I'm being told it's "impossible". While I'm also looking around, I figured I might as well ask the nice folks on BP.

If you have a broker you love or a policy you've used before, would you mind sharing that info? Or direct me where this may have been posted before? Thank you in advance...

Quote from @Ryan Blake:

Southern Cali style homes are on the rise in DFW. Specifically the modern style with white stucco walls. Just 10 years ago you would never see a stucco home in the metroplex.

I have some friends that do higher end homes in the North Dallas area. Would be willing to make some introductions when you get out here. One focuses on the $1m to 1.5m range and another only works with homes in the $2m+ range.

You should share some pictures of the homes you have built.

Hi Ryan and all! That would be great once we get settled in...

What's the best way to share photos? Is there a specific section to post or on my profile?

Excited to dive in!!

Hello BP community! I'm Chris from Costa Mesa, CA, soon to be Dallas TX. I've been investing in real estate with my wife since 2017, when we started with JV deals and small flips. We decided to jump all in right before Covid, which was one of the best decisions we've made.

Covid brought us tremendous success so we got our contractor's license and opened Apogee Custom Homes. Since then we've designed and built several homes in the coastal Orange County Area. 

We've decided to take our aesthetic to Dallas, for several reasons both business and personal but we're excited for this next chapter of building.

Outside of real estate, we like to take our dogs to the beach/park, try new foods and sharpen our RE skills. We look forward to learning more from all of you as well as sharing our knowledge from success to mistakes...
