What Sets Us Apart?
Our Proven Track Record
Since our founding in 1991, Craftmark Homes has built more than 9,000 homes in the Washington, DC area.
We have won over 50 quality, building, and customer service awards, including the MBIA’s “Builder of the Year” award 5 times,
multiple QBW Builder Integrity awards, and have consistently been ranked in the top 50 privately held companies by the Washington Business Journal.
Our Financial Strength & Flexibility
Our successful track record enables us to use our own equity to finance land purchases.
We don’t need interest bearing outside equity to buy your land, which allows us to offer
you a better deal than the competition and makes us a breeze to work with as well.
Our Team of Decision Makers & Closers
We make all key decisions timely and efficiently from our headquarters in McLean, VA.
We never need time-consuming outside approval from partners across the country,
as is typically the case with larger, national builders. Our efficiency and ability get
the job done and get you paid far exceeds the industry standard.
Our Incredible Network
In the nearly 35 years we’ve been in business, we’ve cultivated relationships with the
largest private and public developers in the mid-Atlantic region.
We currently have 7 projects under joint development across 2 states, 3 counties, and the District.
A Tested Success Story
Carver Place in Arlington, VA
To get a sense of our current production style and entitlement process, one need not look further than down the street.
Our recently completed community, Carver Place, in Arlington, Virginia, developed in joint-venture with Elm Street Development,
is a prime example of the vision, quality, and follow-through for which Craftmark Homes and Elm Street Development are known.
It perfectly illustrates that we have the resources to tackle the most complicated of entitlement/development projects.
At Carver Place, not only did we achieve site plan approval within 2 years of contract ratification,
but we did so without taking the Seller on a “goose chase” through the entitlement process (as the previous contract purchaser did)
by overpromising on the density we thought we could achieve and then subsequently underachieving in the same regard.
When our offer was chosen, we immediately went to work on a plan that we knew would be approved,
and as a result are fully settled, developed, built, and sold out just 4 years later.

Energy Star:
Craftmark Homes townhomes meet requirements for an ENERGY STAR partner providing ENERGY STAR
certified
homes. Effective April 1, 2011, ENERGY STAR ratings were updated from Version 2.0 to Versions 2.5 /
3.0.
The new guidelines include several new criteria which penalize larger homes, homes with fewer than
three
(3) bedrooms and homes with additional finished square footage not consisting of bedroom space.
Craftmark Homes will continue to have each home rated under HERS® (Home Energy Rating Scale)
guidelines.
However, due to the new rating criteria, Craftmark Homes will no longer guarantee that ENERGY STAR
certification will be obtained on any future home rated under the new 2.5 / 3.0 Versions. Craftmark
Homes will be unable to guarantee this as Craftmark Homes has no control over the options which
customers may choose, and any additional finished square footage in the home may adversely impact
the
HERS® rating received.
Craftmark Green & Hers®:
HERS® (Home Energy Rating System) E-Scale was developed from data by the Building America program
under
the Department of Energy. HERS® Ratings will vary depending upon the floor plan, elevation, design,
options and orientation of the home. Seller does not warrant, represent or guarantee a specific or
minimum HERS® score. Craftmark Homes townhomes meet ENERGY STAR partner requirements. ENERGY STAR
certification subject to product type, jurisdiction, and community. Consult community sales managers
for
more information. Craftmark townhomes score based on average 2017 testing results. Craftmark single
family home scores are based on average January 15 - December 15, 2016 testing results of single
family
homes with energy upgrades.
