Looking at purchasing a lot in Lake Havasu. Any recommendations for home builders? Looking for someone reliable, reasonable and does good work. Also looking for recommendation for someone to Build retaining walls, back fill and prep for buildings.

Heard Flying J Construction does good work. They built my patio. Give Jeff a call.
Jeff has built some really nice homes and did a lot of building for us. I wish I could have taken him to Henderson for our construction project there.

Greg at Amerizona Construction is a great guy. always inspects his builds DAILY.

Another tip of the hat for Greg, he built our new home and we'll be using him for the garage extension (too many toys it turns out. :) )

Jason Fowler at Sunset homes came recommended when we were looking and we ended up purchasing one of his builds and have been very happy with the home.

Wes Yonda of Seville Homes. Great to work with and a quality builder at a reasonable price.
Kelco Homes also builds a quality product.

X2 on Wes Yonda of Seville Homes. He has a model on Acoma south of Jamaica.

A lot of these builder have listings on Zillow for new builds that have been up for about a year. I’m wondering how much more these builds would be now days with the spike in material costs?

To me it looks like for 150k more than the used 3 br 3 bath homes with not great garages you could build a new house. I don’t buy it.

My guess would be that is the price for a new home built on your build ready level prepared lot. Prices are insane for dirt.

I've had some great experiences in havasu and some awful ones. These guys are a good GC. I could make you a list of subs/trades ive worked with over the years...plumbers/electrical/hvac.

I'm a contractor out of state so its very hard for me to let go of control...and I rarely give references..

PM me if you want a list of names that are top notch and that i would pin my name on.

Arron at Copper Canyon Masonry is your guy for block walls and retaining walls. He did a large retaining wall for me last November. Turned out great. Went through 4 other masonry companies before I found him. The others basically didn't want to do the work, wouldn't show up, wouldn't return phone calls. Arron showed up, quoted the job, told me time frame and got it done.
