Based in the picturesque skiing region of Steamboat Springs , Colorado , JSM Builders is known for its difference in quality , design , and approach . With two decades ’ worth of experience , and one of the finest homebuilding teams in the state , the company ’ s co-founders , Vice President Brian Heit , and President Jeremy MacGray , have turned JSM into the area ’ s foremost builder of custom , speculation , multi-family , and commercial buildings . Brian ’ s American Dream first began when he moved to Steamboat Springs nearly 26 years ago , as he details : “ JSM Builders was originally founded in 1998 . My business partner Jeremy MacGray and I grew up in Minnesota . We both made our way to Colorado in search of the mountains and ultimately settled in Steamboat Springs . At the time , home building was one of the few thriving industries .

We began as a framing subcontractor , and over the years grew into a general contractor - completing custom homes , speculation homes , single family subdivisions , multifamily projects , and commercial builds .”

The city of Steamboat Springs inspired Brian to get into the homebuilding industry . The region , known for its lively culture and beautiful surroundings , is the ideal landscape for burgeoning and creative homebuilders , as Brian affirms : “ To be honest , home building was not on my radar as a young adult . It was after moving to Steamboat Springs , and seeing all its potential , that I became interested in , and ultimately passionate about , home building . Seeing a home go from schematic design to fully complete is one of the most rewarding processes to be a part of .”
