We are in interior design firm in Sarasota and we have done several homes/condos with Murray Homes. All of the project managers have been truly outstanding throughout the entire process and the end result of each project has been a happy customer with a beautiful home. We truly love working with everyone on their team and would always be thrilled to recommend them to any of our clients.

Coming into my 15th year in my Murray home! The Murray team was smaller when my home was built - no cookie cutter mass production with them! Fast forward 15 years later... The team has grown and so have the knowledge and skill sets. Best part about the Murray Homes growth: The team is now family. The service offering is larger to help make maintenance easier. The resources are greater for quick referrals where needed. The same fantastic quality, value and family feeling!

We had an outstanding planning and building experience with Steve and his team at Murray Homes. From introducing us to very talented potential architects, working closely as consultant during the design phase, providing a highly competitive bid and recommendations for further cost efficiency, assigning a fantastic project manager, recommending an outstanding team of building material designers and seamlessly handling all billing and permitting requirements, this was by far our best building experience ever. The icing on the cake was that our home was finished on time and on budget and is a joy
