Why Elias

What you get with us

Pricing you can plan around

Builds start at $170 per square foot, and you get an itemized, line-by-line bid before anything is signed.

We build on your lot

Already own land? We evaluate the site, utilities, and setbacks first, so there are no surprises once the slab is poured.

Weekly progress updates

Photos and a short status report every week, so you always know what was done and what's next.

Design-build under one roof

Plans, selections, permits, and construction are handled by one team, with one point of contact.

Local to San Antonio

We build in Bexar County and the surrounding areas, and we know the soils, the permitting offices, and the trades here.

Help with lots and financing

No lot yet? We can help you find one and connect you with construction lenders who finance custom builds.

About

Built by a San Antonio local

Elias Custom Homes is a San Antonio builder focused on one thing: building quality custom homes for families across South Texas, from San Antonio to La Vernia and the surrounding Hill Country.

Every home we build gets the same attention, whether it's on your lot or one of ours. We keep pricing clear, keep you updated every week, and stay on the job until the last punch-list item is done.

When you build with Elias, you work directly with me, Julio Elias, not a sales rep. Call anytime to talk about your lot, your plans, or one of our move-in ready homes.
