WHY BUILD A CUSTOM HOME WITH REA HOMES?
AWARD WINNING HOMES & FEATURES
This modern farmhouse is one of our many homes recently featured in St. Louis Homes & Lifestyle Magazine!
“When planning a new home, many people dream of a gourmet kitchen, a luxurious master bath and high-end finishes. We see those elements every day, making them top of mind.
Equally important is what we don’t see—what’s “behind the drywall,” says Jeff Bogard, founder and president of REA Homes. A properly built shell, which includes the design of the HVAC system, insulation, right-sized ductwork and so on, has tremendous impact on comfort, energy efficiency and helping create a healthier indoor environment.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
“REA Homes helped us build our custom home from finding a lot to building a great team to the final finishing touches. We appreciated Jeff and Brian helping us find a lot to build on that would meet our needs. We had no idea what to look for in a lot (empty or tear down). They listened to what we wanted in our home and introduced us to recommended architects, designers, landscape companies and more. Every step of the way Brian and Jeff took our priorities and helped make this a home we would love. I looked forward to each progress meeting because no matter what the situation I knew they would expertly navigate based on their experiences and help make it an enjoyable process. Now that our home is finished, we are able to enjoy the small and grand details they included to make it special to our family. The personal attention went above and beyond expectations.”
—Janet Purdy, Frontenac, MO
OUR BUILDING PROCESS
REA Homes supports you through the pre-construction, construction, and post closing phases of the custom home-building process. It is not our mission to simply build a home and sell it – we want to build lifelong relationships with each of the customers we serve. Our attention to St. Louis’ central neighborhoods is essential to keeping these communities vibrant by attracting and retaining home buyers that want the close-in locations, but don’t want to settle for older homes that are inefficient and outdated.
Our three-plus decades, and two generations of experience in the home building business, deep involvement in the St. Louis green community and our true dedication to you, help us achieve these goals with each home we build.
R.E.A Homes has decades of experience creating High Performance Luxury Homes℠. Most of our custom homes can be found throughout upscale, private areas near the 270 corridor of St. Louis – Ladue, Frontenac, Town & Country, Creve Coeur, Des Peres, Kirkwood, but if you have a lot and are looking to build in the St. Louis area we are ready to help you build the home of your dreams.
Our custom homes typically range from $1 M to $10 M+ in price. Our luxurious custom homes feature elements like gourmet kitchens with custom millwork, as well as luxurious master baths with marble, freestanding tubs, and heated tile floors. Some have Irish pubs/full wine cellars, wet bars, and butler’s pantries. Some include two-story high stone fireplaces, dramatic spiral staircases, and barn-style doorways. The exteriors are magnificent, many featuring classic stone or brick. But that’s just the start…They focus even more on what’s “behind the drywall” with an intense passion centered on the “shell” of the home creating healthier, more comfortable, and more energy efficient homes.
With more than 30 years of experience in residential construction, R.E.A.’s founder, Jeff Bogard builds award winning custom homes. A fully credentialed LEED Green Associate, R.E.A.
