"Here at Insight Homes,we build the most energy efficient homes in the area, while continually improving our features to maintain our current position of top 1% in the nation for energy efficiency." - Robert Lisle, Founder and CEO of Insight Homes.
We would like to introduce you to Insight Homes. We are a builder whose mission is to build a better home, build a green home, and to save you “green” in the process. When we started our company, our belief was that the industry did not need another “average” builder. We wanted to be different, and we believe that a better built, energy efficient home should be affordable for you, and should continue to save you money long after your initial home purchase. Since the term “Green Builder” can have a lot of definitions, we thought we would explain what being a “Green Builder” means to us.
