“I don’t care what stage you are at in life. You may be single, empty nesters, have a large family, or a new couple starting out; your home is your fortress, and everyone deserves to feel safe and comfortable there.
At some point in my life, I’ve been almost all of those stages. One thing has always remained the same. When I am home, I want to be home. That’s what I do.
I help make home owners happy they are home. I build their expectations, and I do it at a fair cost without diminishing value and quality of craftsmanship. I start beautifying Memphis with one home. Let it be yours.”
At 901UP.com, we care about community, and before community spreads out to businesses, it must expand throughout the neighborhoods.
We are not anti-commercial. In fact, we enjoy building businesses and seeing them succeed just as much as we enjoy building a backyard you want to sleep in. But there is something special about building up a neighborhood, especially the older ones. There’s an incredible sense of satisfaction when we see a family excited about their new environment, and there’s special joy witnessing neighbors being happy for their neighbor.
Memphis is our home, and some of our favorite success stories have been bringing life back to areas that people had given up on. It doesn’t matter if we are in midtown or downtown Memphis, Bartlett, Collierville, or White Lake to Eads; holding a sense of community is irreplaceable. And that sentiment starts at home.
