From Our President

Dear Prospective Homebuyer,

Welcome, and thank you for considering Terrace Homes.

If you are new to our company, I’d like to share a little bit about our operation and how we conduct business.

First of all, I’ve learned over the past thirty years, that the new home buying experience is not about us, but about you and what you want from a new home. I realize that in order for us to earn your business, you must be confident that we can not only provide the product that suits your needs (tangible) but that we will also, throughout the design, construction, and warranty phases, conduct ourselves in the professional manner you deserve (intangible).

From the tangible (or product) side of the equation, we merchandise our models at the highest level for your viewing pleasure and product selection. From there, our team accepts the responsibility of creating the best long term value for your home buying dollar, regardless of your level of investment. Like every home before yours, your Terrace Home will be individually designed from scratch and appointed to fit your style and budget.

Now to the intangibles, the history and spirit of our Company...

Since its inception in 1975, Terrace Homes has been owned and managed by three generations of the Manternach family. We’re proud of our reputation as a leader in the custom home building industry and we each have a huge personal stake in continuing operations and satisfying our homeowners. In this, our thirtieth year, we will produce our 6,000th home; each designed and built to its owner’s individual specifications.

Our entire family works everyday to earn your business. Ask them or any one of our 100+ employees, “why would you buy a Terrace?” I expect you’ll hear, depending on their area of expertise, “quality construction”, “personal service”, “great designs”, “solid company”, “customer satisfaction”... or possibly a summary of our niche in the homebuilding universe: “we provide architecturally designed, computer engineered, energy star rated, custom built homes utilizing the efficiencies of the systems building process.” All good answers...

But as I mentioned earlier, this isn’t about us, it’s about you. Only you know what’s most important to you and your family when making your home buying decision. With that in mind, I’ll offer this answer and my personal commitment, that given the opportunity and short of compromising our core values or the integrity of our product, we’ll do whatever it takes to add you to our growing family of satisfied Terrace Homeowners.

If you have questions unanswered, or if you need help with your buying decision, feel free to contact me personally at 608-339-7888.

Respectfully,
Galen T. Manternach
President
