My name is on the company for a reason.

I put my name on Leavitt Building Group because I stand behind everything it builds. That’s why I walk every one of our job sites myself. Quality control isn’t something I hand off — I want to see our builds with my own eyes each step of the way, inspecting the work while it happens.

We value quality over everything else. Every build gets the same attention as the one before it, and no home gets built without this standard. The goal is simple: a great home, built right, that you’re proud to live in for decades.

Leavitt Connect.

Our own app, built for Leavitt homeowners. Follow your build from your phone: where things stand, what’s next, and anything that needs your signature. One more way building with Leavitt is different.

A sample home: the names and numbers aren’t real.

When you build with Leavitt Building Group, you get Leavitt Connect: your new home, on your phone, from the first day of construction to closing. Here’s a two-minute look at what you’ll see. It’s a sample home, so the names and numbers aren’t real.

There’s no password to remember. You sign in with a code we email you, or with Face ID. Your home page shows where the build is now, what’s next, your price with every change included, and key dates like closing.

The full schedule is there, phase by phase, and Leavitt keeps it current as the job moves. Every finish and fixture you’ve chosen is in one place, with the date you signed off.

Changes are never a surprise. Each change order spells out what’s changing, what it costs, and how it affects the schedule, and you sign it securely online. Once it’s signed, your price updates, and the signed copy is saved with your documents.

Walk-through punch lists include photos of what was found, and how it was fixed. You can follow every county inspection, and keep your contract, plans, permits, and warranties in one place.

When there’s news, you get a short email, never a flood. And behind the scenes, Leavitt’s office and trade partners work in the same system, so it all stays up to date. That’s Leavitt Connect, one more way building with Leavitt is different. To talk about your new home, call (866) 832-6524.

Home plans.

A starting point, not a catalogue. Each plan has been built before and can be adapted — elevation, room sizes, optional spaces — to your lot and the way you want to live.

Words of trust.

“Working with Leavitt Building Group was truly a fantastic experience from start to finish. Nearly two years ago, I embarked on the journey of turning a rundown, overgrown property into the home of my dreams, and they were right by my side every step of the way. From the very beginning, they understood my vision and helped bring it to life. They didn’t just build a house – they created a home that truly reflects who I am. Leavitt Building Group took a house plan I loved and made thoughtful modifications that fit perfectly with the land and layout. When the framing began, they even allowed for adjustments that made a huge difference.”

Lorrie S.

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Leavitt Building Group. They did an amazing job on our renovation. They were attentive, responsive, cleaned up every day and treated our home as if it was their own. The end result is amazing and much better than what we anticipated. We’ve had a number of friends over and all were floored at the transition. All of the trades involved were fantastic and had excellent suggestions. We can’t recommend them enough.”

John W.

“We had a wonderful experience with the team at Leavitt Building Group! Very professional, great communication and they went above and beyond to make sure we had exactly what we wanted! Would highly recommend!”

Questions we hear most.

How long does it take to build a home?

A semi-custom home takes about 6 to 8 months to complete, depending on the changes made to the plan. A fully custom home takes 10 to 12 months or more, depending on its size and scope.

Do I need to own land first?

No. We build on your lot, or help you find one through our realtor partners.

Do you help with financing?

We do not finance homes ourselves, but we have a banking partner we recommend to help buyers get the best available financing. Who you borrow from is always your choice.

What warranty comes with the home?

Every home comes with a one-year warranty from Leavitt Building Group and a 2-10 Home Buyer's Warranty.

Who will I deal with during the build?

Each home has a dedicated project manager who looks after its construction and is your point of contact throughout. Kyle Leavitt walks every job site himself, and you follow the schedule, selections, inspections and change orders in Leavitt Connect, our homeowner app.

What is included in the price?

Every home includes the Leavitt Standard: 9-foot ceilings, quartz countertops, Andersen windows, hardwood or luxury vinyl plank flooring, a finished and painted garage and more, at no upgrade cost.

Can I change one of your plans?

Yes. Every plan is a starting point. The elevation, room sizes and optional spaces are adjusted to your lot and the way you want to live, and you choose the finishes, fixtures, cabinetry and flooring. See the plans.

Where do you build?

Harford County and the surrounding counties: Baltimore, Carroll, Cecil and Anne Arundel, and into southern Pennsylvania. We are based in Forest Hill, Maryland.
