Loudermilk Homes Honored to Be a Finalist for Custom Home Builder of the Year Award
Loudermilk Homes is honored and humbled to have been recognized as a finalist for the 2025 Custom Home Builder of the Year Award by the National Association of Home Builders, marking the third time the company has been celebrated as one of the top custom builders in the country.
Sherwin Loudermilk, Founder & President of Loudermilk Homes, was recognized during a dinner banquet and awards ceremony yesterday as part of the NAHB International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Florida.
This is the third time since 2022 that Loudermilk Homes has been named a Finalist for the award, which recognizes innovation, leadership, and creativity in crafting one-of-a-kind custom homes.
Loudermilk serves as Treasurer and Secretary of the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association, and he serves on the Board of Advisors for the Georgia Tech College of Design and the Georgia Tech School of Building Construction, and is an official mentor for the MBA program at Georgia State University.
“Being a finalist for Custom Home Builder of the Year is an incredible honor for our entire team at Loudermilk Homes. It’s a testament to the hard work, disciplined processes, innovative thinking, attention to detail, and custom craftsmanship that we bring to every home we design and build,” Loudermilk said.
Loudermilk Homes delivers about 15 homes per year, and has another 30 to 40 homes in various stages of planning at any given time. The company is active in neighborhoods including The Manor Golf & Country Club, Homestead Estates, Blue Heron Walk, and The Enclave at Trilith in the Atlanta area; and Saratay Falls, Bear Mor, Cedar Hill, Pilots Knob, High Hampton and Lonesome Valley in Cashiers/Highlands, North Carolina. Loudermilk Homes also builds custom homes in exclusive intown neighborhoods like Buckhead and Sandy Springs and neighborhoods such as Atlanta Country Club.
Known for modern as well as classic design trends, Loudermilk Homes uses state-of-the-art smart home technology, top-of-the-line materials, and open layouts that create a sense of grandeur. Loudermilk Homes offers in-house architectural design services for faster turnarounds, and selection design and interior design services through sister company Loudermilk Designs, which was founded and is led by President Roane Loudermilk.
Loudermilk Homes has a 9-Step “Process to Perfection” to guide clients through the entire design and construction process to minimize stress and make the journey more enjoyable. Through its Loudermilk Connect portal powered by Buildertrend, each client gets complete transparency on their schedule and budget, along with daily work logs and photos, a live 24/7 video stream, an ability to approve change orders from any touch screen device, and an archive of all selections.
Loudermilk Homes follows a detailed and regimented pre-construction process that establishes specific decision-forcing mechanisms and project milestones that must be completed before a project can advance. For example, homeowners are guided to make all selections before the company breaks ground, similar to a commercial project, which mitigates supply chain delays.
Sherwin Loudermilk is an active leader and participant in an NAHB Builder 20 peer learning group called “The Doors.” During regular meetings and informal conversations throughout the year, owners from some of the top builders across the country share ideas and best practices, provide constructive feedback, review financials and operations, and challenge each other to improve the way they run their professional and personal lives.
“Loudermilk Homes wouldn’t be where it is today without the support, encouragement, thought leadership, and candid feedback from every member of our NAHB Builder 20 Group,” Loudermilk said. “The way we challenge and push each other to do our best work is invaluable, and I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to each of them.”
Loudermilk Homes is deeply involved in supporting the local communities where it operates. The company is an active member of the Atlanta CBUSA chapter and the Chamber of Commerce in Cashiers, NC, and gives to Noor charity to support refugees displaced by geopolitical unrest so they can rebuild their lives. As part of its “Employee of the Quarter” recognition program, Loudermilk Homes makes a donation to a charity of the employee’s choice, and recent recipients include Northside Hospital Foundation, Atlanta Humane Society, Glenville-Cashiers Rescue Squad, and the American Red Cross.
“We are grateful and humbled to be on the podium with the other top builders in the country,” Loudermilk said.
