With so many builders in the Des Moines market, do you find it hard to know who might be a good fit for you? Do you have questions like – what type of homes do they specialize in? Do they build in my area and within my budget? How many homes do they build a year?
Let me help by highlighting one builder a week. Each week, I’ll answer some commonly asked questions and showcase some of their work. First up, KRM Custom Homes!
