The means to an end...That is what Rick Carlson hopes to change by starting Water Street Homes. After 25 years of experience in family business, Carlson has learned that building a home takes time and work. The building process has changed. Today’s buyer is the most sophisticated, well-educated and well-informed buyer ever. Rick knows that he has to be able to meet and exceed very high expectations.

Water Street Homes has invested in the latest technology in 3-D CAD design capabilities as well as virtual tours and internet access. These are fast becoming the most important tools in building today’s custom home. We know that as a builder, we must change to meet the increasing demands of our customers. Quality in design and construction is still the end, but the means to getting there have changed.
