Best Home Builder

2021 Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Company In America

August 20, 2021 by Lauren Stonehouse

These past few years have been nothing short of a whirlwind. Between a global pandemic, political transitions, a crazy housing market, low interest rates and so much more we can chalk up 2020/ 2021 as one that will go in the books! Despite the challenges there are so many glimmers of positive outcomes that we can take away from this past year. Over the years we have the pleasure of being able to watch families, couples, individuals build the homes they have always wanted. This year however, feels extra special. We are so grateful to be apart of such a momentous part of our clients lives. In a time where home has also converted into school, work, the gym among other things home has never taken on so many different roles. And if we learned anything from this past year it’s that home has been the anchor in all this madness and continues to be.

Inc. 5000 List 2021

Thomsen Homes made this year’s Inc. 5000 list 2021! We are very humbled by this achievement and recognize that this could not be possible without our amazing subs/ vendors, business partners and most importantly the families we build homes for. This year has certainly posed it’s challenges, although there are silver linings we are truly blessed by the growth and determination of the communities we serve as we navigate through each year.

This is the 4th year that Thomsen Homes has been ranked on the Inc. 5000 list.

Heidi Toso: Small Town Girl With a Big Look on Life & Design

April 16, 2019 by Lauren Stonehouse

Mix together a little spunk, attitude, persistence, hats of all kinds and a wealth of design knowledge and you have the perfect recipe for Heidi Toso. Heidi came to Thomsen Homes from High End Custom Homes and production 3.5 years ago and where would we be without her? She is the bread and butter of everything design here at Thomsen and with the design team, she makes your dreams come to life! You can catch her lakeside in the summers with her family, winding down with a cold one. You might even see her walking her cute dogs around town! Get to know Heidi and what she’s all about below!

1. Name three words that you describe you. Small Town Girl

2. Do you have any hidden talents or skills? I make a mean pan of pumpkin bars, I used to be one heck of a slalom water skier & synchronized swimmer and I can float in the water for hours- effortlessly!

3. If you could be anywhere other than here, right this minute, where would you be? On an remote beach with sun & sand (and a cold beverage) or Las Vegas – can’t decide between the 2, love em’ both!

4. Flashback to when you were 10 years old. What did you want to be when you grow up? A veterinarian. I have just love animals and should probably live on a hobby farm!

5. My favorite word in the English language is? Curmudgeonly or cantankerous!

6. If you were a superhero, what super power would you have? Time Travel

7. What are you happiest doing, when you’re not working? Spending time with family & relaxing at the lake

9. What would be your personal motto? “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than b the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

10. Choose a movie title for the story of your life. The pursuit of happiness

11. What, or who, are you a “closet fan” of? Adam Thielen. Love that he is a small town MN guy making it for himself (it helps that’s he’s a MN Viking as well)

12. Look at your last song listened to. What is it? “Your Song” by Elton John

13. What’s a typical day like for you at work? Hmm….typical is the abnormal, what’s typical even mean?! Haha. Every day is different and every day is an adventure. Seriously – some of my time is spent designing, but majority of my time is customer service, project management and Team Management.

14. What do you think are the best skills that you bring to your job? Diverse Background from High End Customs homes to Production and many years of experience in the home building industry wearing lots of hats throughout the years!

15. What do you love most about your job? The people I get to work with every day and the relationships I have created with staff and designing new floor plan layouts/options!

The milestones of building a home

August 3, 2018 by Lauren Stonehouse

When you think about the different milestones in your life what do you think of? Getting married? Having a baby? Growing in your career? Finding your passion? Buying your first home? Whatever the milestone is, it is a moment that helps us grow.

Buying a Home

Buying your first home is a huge milestone. Buying a 2^nd or 3^rd home is also an incredible milestone. Let alone building a home is a milestone. All that hard work of saving, research, conversations have paid off and you truly have a place to call your own. This is probably one of the biggest investments you will make. Buying a home is a journey from the moment a home is considered, until getting the keys to the front door.

The Search for Value

When on the search for a new construction home consider the value, you get for your dollar. What things are included? What are the different selections to choose from? The Thomsen Homes value includes a sod yard, deck or patio, upgraded exterior and appliances all included. The sections offered are quality with a large variety to choose from. The service and attention to each and every client is our top priority. The aftercare warranty of your home is also a valued asset to working with a builder you can trust. At Thomsen we pride ourselves in the fact that we can take care of our clients well after their home has been built.

Check out Andrew and Katelin’s Thomsen Moment as they reached this milestone of building their home with Thomsen Homes.

If you want to meet this milestone and find value in a builder, you can trust make your Thomsen Moment happen today!
