Built for you.
Designed for life.

We’ve been building homes and communities since 1978, with one principle at the centre of everything we do: every home deserves our full attention.

More than 45 years of building for real life

Homes by Avi began in 1978 with founder Avi Amir’s commitment to build quality homes, keep promises and put customers first.

Since then, we’ve grown from a Calgary homebuilder into a group of companies serving communities across North America. Through that growth, one idea has remained the same: we approach every home like it’s the only one we’re building.

Today, we build everything from laned and front-drive homes to duplexes, townhomes and condominiums, creating homes for different lifestyles, stages and ways of living.

Mission

We design and build homes and commercial spaces where quality and value are paramount.

Vision

To build exceptional homes and create vibrant communities where people are proud to live.

Core Values

The core values that we stand by:
1. Quality Craftsmanship
2. Timely Delivery
3. Honesty
4. Inclusiveness
5. Profit

After more than three decades of building award winning new houses in Calgary, we can look back and say that we helped build homes and communities and made a significant contribution to the city. It is very rewarding to leave a lasting legacy and to still see happy homeowners after all these years. We are proud of our reputation as one of the leading new home builders in Calgary and the fact that we have been, and continue to be, recognized in the industry and by homeowners.
