Very positive experience at Shorten Homes. Just finished and moved in last month.Everyone that works there was so helpful throughout the process of picking our home, set- up and finishing, I honestly do not have any negative feedback for them. The crews that work for them on-site also were exceptional/impressive at what they do and were friendly, helpful and did a great job. Any questions that came up, were answered within minutes. We were never ignored or had to wait for answers.The quality of our home is solid- extremely happy with the way everything came together. Great teamwork with all involved. Thank you!
Very highly recommend!!

Having just closed on our brand new Shorten Home, we feel the need to give an honest and heartfelt review.

We are absolutely in love with our home and property. The quality is incredible. So many beautiful touches all around the home. Modular homes are built and transported with great care. You can see it yourself. But this fact was also confirmed by our home inspector who was equally impressed.

As a spec home, we luckily came across it at the tail end of the process. Many choices were already made and they were perfect. We were able to make a few choices of our own for the last few items and we appreciated the gesture.

But by far, the best part of our journey was dealing with the Shortens themselves. This family is one of the kindest, generous and most thoughtful people we have had the privilege of working with. If we had a question, they were quick to respond. If we needed something, they made sure it was cared for. They truly care about people and take pride in their products.

We can’t say enough about our home and how happy we are to have found it. If you are considering a new home, please take a look at Shorten Homes. There are so many options to suit your needs.

Thank you, again, for all you’ve done for us in finding our dream home!

We’ve been in our Shorten home for a little over a year now and everything has been fantastic from the very first (of many) emails with Jamie to present. When I say “many emails” that’s not a bad thing. Obviously, with a new home build there will be a ton of questions and Jamie was quick to reply and help out on every one.
We’re not the best decision making couple so we had a number of visits up to the showroom before we finalized. Every time we’d pop in, Jamie and the rest of the Shorten family made us feel welcome.
Start to finish, Shorten gets the thumbs up from us!!
Sidenote* we chose thee best exterior color combo ever to be done. Jamie, one of these days I’ll get you a print so you can frame it and hang it in your office ??

You're considering a modular home, look no further than Debbie Kveragas at Shorten Homes. Debbie made what could have been an overwhelming process feel simple, exciting, and entirely manageable. Her deep knowledge of modular construction, timelines, customization options, and local regulations was invaluable from day one.

Debbie guided us through every step—from selecting the right floor plan to understanding site prep and delivery logistics. She was incredibly patient with all our questions, explained every detail clearly, and made sure we felt confident in every decision. Her communication was always prompt and reassuring, and her passion for helping people find their perfect home truly shines.

Thanks to Debbie, we’re now living in a beautifully crafted modular home that fits our lifestyle and budget perfectly. Her dedication, honesty, and genuine care made all the difference. We’re so grateful we had her on our team and would recommend her to anyone looking into modular home living. Debbie is the gold standard!

I've had a great experience working with Shorten. The process of building a home can feel overwhelming but they made it easy step by step. Working with Jamie has been great. He's made a point to keep me in the loop of what's happening and if you need to get in touch with him he answers immediately and makes sure we are taken care of it. Any concern we expressed has been handled in a timely manner. They have over delivered from a service standpoint. All the workers he has have been friendly, thorough and prompt. Highly recommend them! We are thrilled to have our brand new home the way we want it
