Our Approach

In building your dream -- a custom home or renovating your existing home -- you are faced with many decisions.  None is more important, however, than your choice of a builder.  Your relationship with your builder is one of longevity – spanning from assistance with selecting your lot to active participation in designing your home to, of course constructing your home, and finally to warranting your home after completion.

The whole experience of bringing your dream to reality should be exciting & fun, and you deserve peace-of-mind that your builder is working for you and with you.  You will place extensive trust in your builder, given the key role your builder plays in determining the quality of your experience.  Ultimately, you will have to take a “leap of faith” by putting your trust in a builder at the onset of your project.  We hope to ease you toward that “leap” by describing the principles that drive us and by presenting our business approach. 

At Forner – La Voy, our principles are simple, but uncompromising:

• We believe in honest, straightforward dialog.  It is at the foundation of our Open Book Construction Management approach. 
• We also believe that constructing a home is a blend of art and science. 
  • Art in the sense that your home starts as a two-dimensional set of blueprints that provides a portion of the guidance required to construct your home.  We combine our decades of home building and client service experience with the expertise of many of the area’s finest craftsmen to construct the three-dimensional structure that becomes your home.
  • We believe that your satisfaction is just as much a function of what happens behind the walls as what goes on the walls.  That is where the science comes in.  And we employ a rigorous methodology (again, the science) that is rooted in the fundamentals of project management and client service. 
• And finally, we believe you as a homeowner should always be able to “go right to the top”.  As such, your relationship will be with the owners of our company.  Rick Forner and James La Voy will remain your key points of contact throughout our relationship.
