Jagoe Home – Recognized as One of the Best Home Builders in the Nation
When you’re looking for an “award-winning builder,” you want proof that goes deeper than marketing language. Jagoe Homes has been recognized by 10 Year Home Buyers Warranty through its Builder Achievement Awards program, including the prestigious Platinum Builder Award and Foundation Builder honors. These awards highlight builders who consistently demonstrate craftsmanship, innovative construction techniques, and a strong commitment to homeowner protection.
What “Award Winning” Really Means in New Home Construction
Awards like these are based on real performance, not popularity. Judges and industry partners look at construction quality, warranty performance, customer satisfaction, and long-term reliability. For you, that means independent experts have taken a hard look at our homes and processes and decided they meet a higher standard.
Parade of Homes Winning Kitchens, Baths and Interiors
Jagoe homes regularly stand out at events like the SIBA Parade of Homes, where judges evaluate real, lived-in design: curb appeal, kitchen layouts, owner’s baths, storage, and how the home flows. When you tour one of our award-winning models, you’re seeing the same thoughtful details and finishes available in the homes you can build or buy today.



How Awards Reduce Risk and Uncertainty for Your Family
Choosing an award-winning builder helps reduce the “what ifs” in your decision. A long history of independent recognition, paired with strong warranties and clear communication, gives you confidence that your home—and your builder—will stand the test of time.

Award-Winning Energy-Efficient New Homes That Save You Money
Awards for energy efficiency matter because they impact your budget every month. Every Jagoe home is built EnergySmart™, using advanced insulation, high-performance windows, efficient HVAC systems, and smart technology that work together to reduce wasted energy. Our commitment to efficiency has helped earn recognition such as CenterPoint Energy’s Highest Savings Participating Builder award.
Energy Leadership – Lower Utility Bills, Higher Comfort
In an EnergySmart™ home, comfort and savings go hand in hand. Tight construction and better insulation help reduce drafts and temperature swings, while efficient systems and ENERGY STAR® features help keep utility costs under control. Many buyers see meaningful monthly savings compared to a typical used home, along with a quieter, more comfortable place to live.
Built EnergySmart Construction Standards and What They Mean for You
“EnergySmart™” isn’t just a label; it’s a checklist of construction standards we follow on every home. From sealed ductwork to properly sized equipment and verified energy ratings, those details add up to a home that uses less energy to stay comfortable, season after season.
Recognition from Independent Warranty and Energy Partners
Independent partners look closely at how homes perform over time. Awards from organizations like 10 Year Home Buyers Warranty and utility programs reflect proven construction quality and energy performance. That means your home is designed not only to look beautiful on day one, but to work efficiently for years to come.

Local “Best Home Builder” Awards in Indiana & Kentucky
Awards are even more meaningful when they come from the communities you’re considering calling home. Across Southern Indiana and Western Kentucky, Jagoe Homes has received recognition in local “best of” lists, Parade of Homes events, and industry association awards for design, efficiency, and customer satisfaction.

Owensboro & Evansville – Trusted by Your Neighbors
In cities like Owensboro, Evansville, and Newburgh, families see Jagoe communities every day—and many of your neighbors already live in one of our homes. Local recognition and word-of-mouth referrals reflect something simple but powerful: people who know the area, know the builder, and still choose Jagoe.
Parade of Homes and Regional Tour Honors
Regional Parade of Homes events showcase the best new homes in the market. Jagoe entries have earned multiple honors in these tours, including categories like Home of the Year and Most Energy Efficient Home. When you walk through those homes, you can see and feel exactly why the judges took notice.
Move-In Ready Homes in Award-Winning Neighborhoods
You don’t have to wait to enjoy the benefits of an award-winning builder. Jagoe offers quick move-in homes in established, highly regarded neighborhoods across Indiana and Kentucky. Sidewalks, green spaces, and convenient access to schools, parks, shopping, and dining help turn a great house into a truly welcoming community.
Award-Winning New Home Designs & Community Planning
Awards also recognize how homes and communities work for everyday life. Jagoe’s floor plans are designed around real families: open gathering spaces, flexible rooms for work or play, generous storage, and outdoor living areas that make it easy to enjoy evenings at home. At the community level, we think carefully about how streets, amenities, and green spaces come together.
Professional Recognition for Innovative Home Designs
Over the years, our homes have earned honors at Parade of Homes and other regional events for thoughtful, livable design. Judges look at functionality, curb appeal, use of natural light, and how well the home adapts to different life stages. Those same design principles are baked into the plans you can choose from today—whether you prefer a cozy single-level home or a spacious two-story.
Parade-Worthy Exteriors, Kitchens and Baths
From charming exteriors that stand out on the street to kitchens and baths that feel both stylish and practical, award recognition reinforces what our homebuyers already love. You’ll see smart storage solutions, on-trend finishes chosen to age gracefully, and layouts that make everyday routines simpler.
Amenities and Outdoor Spaces That Fit Your Lifestyle
A well-planned community should feel good to drive into every single day. Many Jagoe neighborhoods feature sidewalks, pocket parks, playgrounds, and attractive entry monuments. These outdoor spaces encourage neighbors to connect, kids to play, and families to feel at home far beyond their front door.

Real Homeowner Satisfaction Behind the Awards
Industry awards matter, but the most important recognition we receive comes from our homeowners. Through independent surveys and everyday feedback, buyers tell us what they value most: clear communication, a smooth building process, energy-efficient homes, and support long after move-in. That ongoing satisfaction is what truly sustains our reputation.

Listening to Real Homebuyers
Homebuyer survey programs and online reviews offer an honest look at the experience we provide. We use this feedback to refine our processes, update our communication, and focus on what matters most to you—whether that’s staying on top of construction milestones, making design selections feel simple, or answering questions about your new home systems.
Service, Warranty and Support Long After Closing
A new Jagoe home comes with structured warranty coverage and a dedicated service team. If an issue arises, you know where to go, what’s covered, and how we’ll respond. That transparency and follow-through gives our buyers peace of mind that we’re here for them long after the key exchange.
Why So Many Homeowners Choose Jagoe Again
One of the strongest signs of trust is when homeowners come back to build with us again. Many families choose a second Jagoe home when they’re ready to move up, relocate, or right-size. Their repeat business is a direct reflection of the quality, consistency, and care they experienced the first time around.
We recently purchased a Jagoe home in the Bluegrass Commons community and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We love everything about our new home. We were especially pleased with the Jagoe team starting with sales thru Debbie. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease about such a huge next step in our lives. She was kind and never hesitated to answer questions and point us in the right direction. From the signing of the purchase agreement to the signing of the closing documents, the process was quick, easy and straightforward. We would encourage anyone that’s in the market for a home to take a look at Jagoe and what they are making available for families. Thanks again!
We just celebrated our 1 year anniversary of living at Bluegrass Commons in the Acoustics. It was absolutely the right choice for us to move here!!! The house is perfect for me and my husband and God has blessed us with amazing neighbors so we feel more safe and like a true community versus a subdivision. We get to enjoy beautiful sunsets, ducks and geese to watch in the evening. Check it out, you won’t be disappointed.
I have worked with many Jagoe representatives and in many many Jagoe homes. Also talked with many of the homeowners. My personal experience with their staff and seeing their homes is great personalities and a consistent well built product. And the experience I hear about from the homeowners is one that is a low stress, which building can be very stressful, and straight forward process. To me, that’s a great way to go when building!
Mary Elliot & the rest of their salespeople are very in tune to making you be glad you chose Jagoe to build your new home!
I was hesitant to build a home 600 miles from where I live, especially since it was on my own lot, but the entire team at Jagoe made it so easy. They were great from the initial design work, revisions I wanted to an existing floor plan, and site work that had to be done to make this home possible. The framing crew was amazing, and all the finishes were top notch. Their warranties are a great incentive. I would highly recommend Jagoe to anyone considering building a new home. Mike, the construction superintendent was the best!
I've worked with Jagoe Homes for several years and have always been impressed and pleased with their professionalism and the quality of their homes. I've sold several Jagoe Homes and referred my clients to them to build them their dream homes. The people at Jagoe are amazing and they have a great reputation.
