About Us

Empowering Home Ownership

While owning a home is a step up from renting, for many, the quality and experience of moving forward is still in the hands of others. We believe everyone should have an opportunity and practical pathway to home ownership. Our turn-key floor plans put that in your hands. 

Our leadership

Addison Paul Homes is a family-owned business. We have a passion for putting families first and strive to operate in a way that uses our skills to serve others. Our leaders steward the company to manage our finances with integrity and strive to operate in a way that meets and exceeds our long term vision and goals.

He deepened his skills in human-centered design through professional experiences in the fields of advertising, branding, graphic design, environmental graphic design, wayfinding, and placemaking. 

Having lived in typical, single-family tract homes in the suburbs of Houston for more than twenty years, he noticed a common thread of problems inherent in their design and set out to solve them, forming Addison Paul Homes in December of 2023.

This is Your Place

We believe that one of the biggest moments in a person’s life is the decision to purchase a home. It should be empowering, beautiful, and ultimately fruitful. We’ve been planning for this moment. And while our first floor plan is a comprehensive blueprint for an accessible, affordable, and elegantly designed single-family home, our long term vision is to build sustainable communities where people are directly connected to nature and organic sources of food.

Our Goals

Our business model is centered around one thing—giving homes away to families with a real need. With every purchase, a portion of the proceeds goes towards that goal. The same is true as we design and build new homes that are placed on the market. As our business scales, so will the number of homes we can give away. Please contact us to learn how you can support us in this effort.

Lead People Home

Everyone should have a home. A place to nurture. A place to nest. For celebration, recreation and rest. A permanent Point A to embark from—and return to. Our job is to help people discover that it’s possible to create that space for themselves. Then give them the blueprint to do it. 

Universal Home Ownership

Before currency, banks, mortgages and interest rates complicated everything, people created their homes. And owned them. We see the world working that way again.

Own Your Life

If owning your home isn’t a right, it had better be an opportunity. Let’s make it happen.

Be a Light

It’s exciting to discover a way out, a way up or a way forward. Even more so when you’re revealing the path to another.

Build Fellowship

Consider what happens in and around a home. It’s more than a house. We’re building experiences, relationships and community.

Revel in the Detail

No decision is insignificant. Nothing we do happens in a vacuum. Everything is connected.
