Turner Homes

Turner Homes is one of East Tennessee’s largest and most experienced local builders. Since 1971, the company has built new homes and thoughtfully planned communities throughout the greater Knoxville and Chattanooga areas.

What makes Turner Homes stand out is its focus on creating more than individual houses. Its communities are designed around the way residents want to live, with convenient locations, attractive streetscapes, and amenities that encourage an active and connected lifestyle.

Whether you are looking for a completed Quick Move-In home or want to personalize a new home from the beginning, I can help you explore Turner Homes’ communities, floor plans, homesites, and available options.

Turner Homes Communities

Turner Homes builds throughout East Tennessee, with communities in and around:

  • Hardin Valley
  • Karns
  • Halls
  • South Knoxville
  • Lenoir City
  • Alcoa
  • Maryville
  • Chattanooga and Ooltewah

Communities are often positioned near schools, shopping, dining, major employers, and outdoor recreation. Depending on the neighborhood, amenities may include:

  • Resort-style pools
  • Clubhouses
  • Pavilions
  • Playgrounds
  • Sidewalks
  • Community gathering spaces
  • Maintained common areas

Each community offers a different combination of location, amenities, floor plans, pricing, and HOA responsibilities. I can help you compare the options and determine which neighborhood best fits your lifestyle and budget.

Single-Family Homes and Townhomes

Turner Homes offers both single-family homes and townhomes in select East Tennessee communities.

Available floor plans include ranch-style homes, two-story designs, first-floor primary suites, open-concept living areas, home offices, lofts, bonus rooms, and guest suites. With more than 30 floor plans offered across its markets, Turner provides options for a variety of household sizes and lifestyles.

Turner townhomes may be a good fit for buyers seeking a lower-maintenance lifestyle, while its detached homes offer additional space, privacy, and opportunities for personalization.

Semi-Custom Building Options

Turner Homes offers a semi-custom building experience, allowing buyers to personalize select elements of their new home without taking on the complexity of a fully custom build.

Depending on the floor plan, community, and construction stage, buyers may be able to make selections involving:

  • Cabinetry and hardware
  • Countertops
  • Flooring
  • Tile and backsplash
  • Interior paint
  • Lighting and plumbing fixtures
  • Kitchen and bathroom finishes
  • Structural or layout options
  • Outdoor living spaces
  • Other available upgrades

Purchasing early in the construction process usually provides the greatest opportunity for personalization. Once construction reaches certain stages, some selections may already be finalized.

As your buyer’s agent, I can help you prepare for the selection process, understand what is included, evaluate upgrade costs, and choose finishes that reflect your style while keeping future resale value in mind.

Quick Move-In Homes

For buyers who do not want to wait through the full building process, Turner Homes also offers Quick Move-In homes. These properties may be completed, nearing completion, or in an earlier stage of construction.

A Quick Move-In home can provide the benefits of new construction with a shorter and more predictable timeline. Depending on the stage of construction, you may still have opportunities to choose certain finishes. In other cases, all selections may already be finalized, creating an easier and more streamlined buying experience.

I can help you identify available and upcoming Quick Move-In homes, compare estimated completion dates, and determine which options align with your preferred timeline.

Quality and Energy-Efficient Construction

As a locally rooted East Tennessee company, Turner Homes has built its reputation on quality construction and thoughtfully designed homes. Its floor plans focus on practical layouts, modern features, energy efficiency, and spaces that work for everyday life.

Features and finishes vary by home and community but may include:

  • Open-concept living spaces
  • Spacious kitchens and islands
  • Flexible home-office or guest spaces
  • Main-level primary suites
  • Walk-in closets
  • Bonus rooms and lofts
  • Covered porches or patios
  • Energy-efficient construction features
  • Attached garages
  • Modern interior finishes

I will help you review the included features for each home so you can accurately compare pricing and understand which items are standard and which are upgrades.

Turner Homes Warranty

Turner Homes provides a builder warranty program that may include coverage for qualifying workmanship, materials, systems, and structural components.

Warranty coverage, exclusions, service procedures, and timelines should be reviewed before purchasing. I can help you understand the warranty information provided with your specific home and remain available as a resource after closing.

Home Front Mortgage and Builder Incentives

Turner Homes partners with Home Front Mortgage to provide an in-house financing option. Buyers who choose the affiliated lender may have access to special financing incentives on select homes.

Depending on the current promotion, incentives may include:

  • Contributions toward eligible closing costs
  • Interest-rate incentives
  • Rate buydowns
  • Assistance with prepaid expenses
  • Special offers on select Quick Move-In homes

Builder incentives can change frequently and may be limited to specific properties, contracts, loan programs, or closing dates. I can help you review the complete offer and compare it with outside financing options so you understand the overall value—not just the advertised incentive.

Why You Need Your Own Buyer’s Agent

The representative at the Turner Homes sales center works for the builder. As your buyer’s agent, I work for you.

Building or purchasing a new home involves contracts, construction timelines, deposits, selections, upgrade costs, inspections, financing incentives, walkthroughs, and warranties. Having your own representation means you have someone helping you understand your options and advocating for your interests throughout the process.

As your buyer’s agent, I can help you:

  • Compare Turner Homes communities and floor plans
  • Identify available homesites and Quick Move-In inventory
  • Review pricing, included features, upgrades, and HOA costs
  • Understand the builder’s contract and important deadlines
  • Prepare for the design and selection process
  • Evaluate builder and lender incentives
  • Monitor construction progress and completion timelines
  • Coordinate independent inspections
  • Attend important meetings and walkthroughs
  • Prepare for the final blue-tape walkthrough
  • Document items that should be completed or corrected
  • Navigate warranty questions after closing

My goal is to make the process easier, help you avoid surprises, and ensure you feel informed and confident from the first community tour through closing.
