A Journey of Growth and Community with Will Steed Homes

At Will Steed Homes, we believe that building a house is about more than just construction – it’s about creating a community and fostering personal growth. Mandi’s story is a testament to this philosophy, showcasing how our company values have not only shaped beautiful homes but also transformed lives.

A Serendipitous Beginning

Six years ago, Mandi found herself at a crossroads, unsure of her career path. Little did she know that a suggestion from her cousin Brad, a trim carpenter for Will Steed Homes, would set her on a life-changing journey. Starting with basic tasks like cleaning job sites, Mandi’s dedication and willingness to learn caught the attention of our team.

Learning the Ropes

Mandi’s initial challenges were significant. “I didn’t know a whole lot about the building world,” she recalls. From understanding materials to communicating with contractors, every day brought new learning opportunities. But Mandi’s perseverance shone through. “I actually surprised Shawn because I stuck with it,” she says, referring to her early weeks on the job.

Finding Her Place

It wasn’t long before Mandi met Will and Meri Steed, a moment she describes as pivotal: “At that point, I knew in my heart I was where I was supposed to be.” This sentiment echoes our belief at Will Steed Homes that the right team makes all the difference.

Growth and Responsibility

Today, Mandi has grown into the role of Warranty Manager, overseeing job sites and managing our warranty list. Her journey reflects our commitment to nurturing talent and promoting from within. “I wake up every morning excited and happy to go to work,” Mandi shares, a testament to the positive work environment we strive to maintain.

The Will Steed Homes Difference

Mandi’s experience highlights several key aspects that set Will Steed Homes apart:

  1. Consistency and Family-Like Atmosphere: “We use the same contractors that we have for 10 plus years. We’ve become like a big family,” Mandi explains. This continuity ensures quality and fosters a sense of community.
  2. Christian Values and Community Support: Our commitment to Christian values and community involvement is something Mandi notes as unique in the industry.
  3. Attention to Detail: “There’s a level of cleanliness and detail that Will Steed Homes brings that other builders don’t,” Mandi proudly states, emphasizing our commitment to excellence in every aspect of our work.
  4. Leadership that Inspires: Mandi’s admiration for our leadership, particularly Shawn’s determination and work ethic, underscores the impact of strong, positive role models in our company.

Building More Than Houses

At Will Steed Homes, we’re not just constructing buildings; we’re building a better community in Granbury and the surrounding areas. Mandi’s observation that our homes “stand out among others” reflects our dedication to quality and uniqueness in every project.

A Personal Touch

Perhaps the most touching aspect of Mandi’s story is the personal growth and confidence she’s gained. “Will, Meri, and Shawn believed in me from the beginning when I didn’t believe in myself,” she shares. This nurturing approach is at the heart of our company culture.

A Testament to Our Values

Mandi’s journey from a job site cleaner to Warranty Manager is more than a success story – it’s a reflection of what Will Steed Homes stands for. We believe in building quality homes, fostering a supportive work environment, and contributing positively to our community.

As Mandi puts it, we’re “the best builder in Hood County. And if you ask me, the best in Texas.” While we’re humbled by such praise, what truly matters to us is the impact we have on people’s lives – both those who live in our homes and those who help us build them.

At Will Steed Homes, every house we build and every team member we nurture is part of our commitment to excellence, community, and personal growth. Mandi’s story is just one example of the Will Steed Homes difference.
