KC Custom Homes is a leader in the Texan home building landscape, with a legacy spanning over 25 years. The family-owned company’ s commitment to excellence is reflected in every dream home it brings to life, making it the trusted choice for custom homes across the state. A year after our last conversation, we catch up with Vice President, Chris Castro, for an update on the company’ s latest endeavors.
“ For the past 12 months, we have focused on fine-tuning our systems and processes. As a result, our operations are now running smoother than ever, positioning us to take on more volume. Additionally, our management capabilities have been streamlined over the last year, allowing us to enter a scalable phase,” he opens.“ While the past couple of years have been slower due to rising interest rates, we are starting to see a pickup in activity. At the moment, our primary clientele consists of cash buyers, as we operate in a luxury market with a significant number of high-net-worth individuals looking to build their forever homes. Therefore, we feel blessed to have a solid pipeline of work. In terms of design trends, we continue to see a preference for what I call the Hill Country contemporary style. Much of our work is located north of San Antonio in the Texas Hill Country, and we are noticing a lot more local buyers compared to out-of-state ones. This has been an interesting trend over the past 12-to-18 months, with clients becoming increasingly specific about what they want for their future forever homes,” he adds.
The George’ s Ranch model home is one of KC Custom Homes’ latest completed projects. Chris tells us more about the property’ s standout features.“ Located in a community called George’ s Ranch in Boerne, Texas, we built this home for the 2025 Greater San Antonio Builders Association’ s Parade of Homes. This marked our first time
