For almost four decades, Dave Brewer, Inc's. name has been synonymous in Central Florida with the highest quality
in luxury home building. Now the venerable company has entered a new era, with fresh new energy fueling its
continued success and its passion for constructing magnificent custom homes.
Working with prominent architects and highly skilled craftsmen, this new energy is being balanced with
old-fashioned personalized service, stellar workmanship, and an untouchable integrity of design to create beautiful residences
that truly are a lasting investment. In fact, the signature casual elegance and energy efficiency of homes by Dave Brewer, Inc. are so prized by their
owners that repeat clients represent 60 percent of the firm's business. "We've built as many as four homes for the same families," notes company
president Gary Rauch. The firm also topped the Orlando Business Journal's 2009 list of highest sales volume among regional custom home builders,
showing the consistency of Dave Brewer, Inc.'s success, regardless of economic ups and downs. Its secret? Providing clients with
uncompromising service and quality learned from decades of experience.
"Building with DBI is different because of the state-of-the-art building process we have spent years developing," says Rauch. "We became
fully computerized many years ago and have developed systems that are designed to be very home-buyer friendly, deliver homes on-budget, and insure that the stress
of building a custom home is taken out of the equation."
Rauch has worked closely with founder and uber-builder Dave Brewer for many years. Both men have won numerous construction industry awards and are considered
visionaries in the industry. Six years ago they hand-selected and brought on board Matt Trask to mentor and educate him in every aspect of the business.
Trask is now vice president, and he represents the next generation of passionate builders carrying on the company's vision. Trask is a licensed
building contractor. Brewer, 61, is now semi-retired but still lends his expertise and counsel to the team on a regular basis. "We have a very hands-on
approach to the entire building process," Trask says, " and we strive to make every customer feel like they are our only customer. We also have the best subcontractors
in the industry, some of whom have been with us for 20 years or more, and we encourage them to build our homes as though they were constructing them for
their own families."
Trask sutdied architecture, business and finance and earned his BS degree at the University of Central Florida. He then worked
for a Forutne 500 compan, where he served in many different leadership roles. He hails from a long family history of successful real estate and construction
professionals, though, and that influence helped fuel his love of building fine homes, and ultimately led him to pursue his passion for building
as a career. "I wanted to learn from the very best, and I don't hink you will find many builders better than Dave and Gary," he relates.
Brewer who has dubbed the vice president "a younger Dave Brewer", says:"I never thought I'd find someone with as critical an eye
for detail or such a flair for design as myself until I met Matt."
The firm's stellar reputation has been cemented over the years with numerous accolades, awards and achievements. Amont them are several
Grand Awards in Parade of Homes competitions, "Best of Show" in the 1992 Street of Dreams at Alaqua, an exclusive community
in Longwood, Florida; selection as a "Top Custom Tec Bulder" by TecHome Builder Magazine, numerous Aurora Awards from the Southeast Building Conference, and recognition
form Orlando Magazine as "Best Custom Home Builder" for 2001 and 2002 and from Orlando Business Journal as "Readers' Choice #1
Custom Home Builder in Central Florida" for 2006 and 2007. Brewer was the founder of the prestigious, invitation-only Master Custom Builder Council.
The company also is a member of the Home Builders Association of Metro Orlando and the Florida Green Building Coalition.
Homes by Dave Brewer, Inc. start at $800,000, and have been constructed in the most exclusive locales, including Cypress Point, Isleworth,
Bella Collina, Heathrow Country Estates, Heathrow Woods, Alaqua Lakes, sweetwater Club, Windermere and Wingfield Reserve.
Rauch, Trask and Brewer have refined the winning combination of new technology, old world craftsmanship, and superior service that is the essence
of Dave Brewer Inc. Trask sums it up: "We've built over 1000 executive homes, and we take great pride in placing the Dave Brewer stamp of approval on each one of them."
