Kansas builder First Choice Custom Homes is the May 2023 RESNET® HERS® Builder of the Month. First Choice Custom Homes has built and re-modeled over 100 custom homes in the Kansas City area. We asked company president John Jamison to share some insight on building HERS® homes for their customers. Jamison says, “We have homes HERS® rated for a couple of reasons. First of all, it is a requirement of many of our local building jurisdictions. Most importantly though, we believe it is our responsibility to do our part in providing each customer with an energy-efficient home as well as to help save our great country’s resources.” He adds, “Consumers should ask for the HERS® score because it helps the buyer understand what their energy costs expenditures will be each month. It also gives them a sense of security knowing that First Choice Custom Homes cares about their pocketbook as well as the environment.” When asked how their homebuyers feel about their HERS®-rated homes, Jamison says, “In one word ECSTATIC! They know that First Choice Custom Homes cares about their financial stability which is provided by utilizing construction practices to help control their energy usage. We value each of our customers and I believe they fully trust and appreciate First Choice Custom Homes!” Read more of the profile here.
