About SDO Homes

A developer that builds what it owns.

We're a metro Atlanta residential development and construction company. We source and acquire land, take it through entitlements and permitting, build, and hold for the long term — controlling the project at every stage instead of building on someone else's terms.

What sets us apart is the numbers discipline. Every project runs against a target cost-per-square-foot model with a tracked trade budget — so partners and lenders always know exactly where a deal stands.

What We Do

From raw land to a held asset.

Full-cycle residential development and construction across the metro Atlanta market.

Land Acquisition

Sourcing and acquiring infill lots and acreage with development upside in target Atlanta submarkets.

Entitlements & Permitting

Plans, drawings, inspections, and city coordination managed start to finish so projects keep moving.

New Construction

Ground-up single-family homes built to a planned spec and budget, from foundation to final finishes.

Subdivision Development

Acquiring and entitling acreage for residential subdivision — survey, civil concepts, and lot layout.

Trade & Budget Control

Bid tracking, contractor management, and a live trade budget that holds the project to its numbers.

Build-to-Hold Investment

Developing and building homes for our own long-term rental portfolio, delivered ready to lease.

How We Work

A clear path from land to keys.

Every project follows the same disciplined sequence — no surprises on cost or timeline.

Site & Feasibility

Acquisition, survey, appraisal, and a go/no-go on the numbers.

Design & Permits

Plans, drawings, and city approvals — issued and ready to build.

Build

Demolition, site prep, and vertical construction against a live budget.

Deliver & Hold

Final inspections, walkthrough, and handoff to lease or owner.

Selected Projects
