serves as a conduit for continuing education. Construction is the third largest industry in our area. As such, it’ s essential to attract and train new builders to maintain quality and compliance at a professional level. Another aspect of the association’ s mission is advocacy. We interact with our elected officials to make sure that they understand the impact of legislation on the industry and the community. This includes voicing our concerns when restrictions on the building industry are punitive or unnecessary. Lastly, we are devoted to giving back. Our association regularly donates time, talent and money to a variety of charities, such as food pantries, scouting programs, scholarships, and affordable housing initiatives,” he informs.
As 2025 comes to a close, Michael reveals what lies ahead for Modern Rustic Homes in the upcoming year.“ We are fortunate to have new construction projects lined up for the next two years to keep our crews, subcontractors and suppliers busy. This presents an excellent opportunity for clients to begin the programming stage of designing their new homes. I always tell our clients that the least expensive house they will ever build is the one we design on paper, so it’ s essential to get it right before we break ground,” he ends. ■
