Since 1999, Red Car Homes has been building quality new construction homes across South Miami-Dade County. We're not a national builder that parachutes in and moves on β we live here, we build here, and our families live in these same communities.
Every Red Car home is built to Florida's stringent post-Hurricane Andrew building codes with concrete block construction (CBS), impact-resistant windows, and reinforced roof systems. We don't cut corners because our reputation in Homestead depends on every home we build.

"We looked at four different builders in Homestead before choosing Red Car Homes, and we are so glad we did. The quality of construction is genuinely better β you can feel it in every room. And they were responsive even after we closed. That's rare."
"The Palm Lakes community is everything we hoped for. Our kids ride their bikes on weekends, we have actual neighbors we know, and the lake views from our lanai still take our breath away every morning. Red Car Homes built exactly what they promised."
"First-time homebuyers here. Red Car Homes held our hand through the entire process β from choosing the floor plan to understanding our mortgage options to the final walk-through. We never felt lost. And we love our home. Truly grateful."
