No aspect of building a home matters more than communication — between builder and subs, builder and suppliers, and most important, between builder and home owner. Brian’s sales and marketing background, he believes, serves him well on this point. Fifteen years in outside sales will honed his skills at not listening to customers, but hearing them. Virtually every Brian Riker Homes customer, whether a custom home or a buyer of one of Brian’s spec homes, volunteers that his willingness to listen, and then do what he says, made the experience trouble-free. You invest so much of yourself in your home beyond the significant amounts of money. Too many builders for too many years have fed the reputation of the “disappearing contractor.” Brian works to defy the stereotype. He’s available, open and ready to answer questions. He even returns phone calls.
