Who We Are
ABOUT HDI
HDI is a locally owned and operated builder in East TN. We take pride in crafting homes that don’t cut corners because we believe in creating spaces that truly stand the test of time.
East TN is more than just where we work- it’s where we live. By focusing on quality and integrity, we ensure that every home we build is a lasting part of the place we all call home.
HDI exists in large part because of our own experiences looking for a home. We’ve all been buyers, loving the idea of New Construction and the ease that affords but encountering:
- Limited inventory
- Poor quality
- No character
- Cheap materials
We’re not interested in vinyl boxes with a roof, but rather a home we can envision our loved ones making memories in.
That’s why at HDI we build homes that embody what our families are looking for:
- Building the right way with skilled, local tradesman from day one
- Crafting homes with character, personality, and features people love
- Preserving the natural landscape surrounding the home to keep EAST TN beautiful
- Offering quality that lasts a lifetime, along with a warranty for peace of mind
We build homes that we would want to live in.
Let us build yours.

Learn How HDI’s Story Began
Our family was moving from another state and was looking for a house. When moving from another state and looking for a home we were disappointed in what was available.
But the more we looked at what other builders offered, the more we were disappointed with what we found:
- Limited inventory
- Poor quality
- No character
- Cheap materials
Most of the houses we saw were just vinyl boxes with a roof–not a home where we envisioned our families making memories. To add insult to injury, their houses also made the community we were moving to look boring and less attractive.
The home we ended up buying needed major repairs shortly after moving in: hot water heaters, air conditioning unit, roof repairs to name a few.
We wanted to find a quality new construction home, but it seemed they didn’t exist. Which made us ask, ‘Why don’t we build them?’
It turns out, others were looking for the same things we wanted in their new construction home. Thus, HDI was born as we began building homes for others – high-quality new construction homes in settings we would want to live in.
That’s why at HDI we build homes that embody what our families are looking for:
- Building the right way with skilled, local tradesman from day one
- Crafting homes with character, personality, and features people love
- Preserving the natural landscape surrounding the home to keep EAST TN beautiful
- Offering quality that lasts a lifetime, along with a warranty for peace of mind
We build homes that we would want to live in.
Let us build yours.
