Founded in 1965, Willis Custom Homes has helped set the standard for luxury homebuilding in Kansas City for over 60 years. Across three generations, the Willis family has crafted hundreds of distinctive homes – establishing a reputation as one of the region’s most respected builders in the mid-to-luxury marketplace. 

Our guiding principle, “Building for Generations,” is reflected in every home we create. From imaginative architecture and thoughtfully designed floor plans to exceptional craftsmanship and elevated finishes, our homes are built to endure – both in quality and in design. 

We ensure every client receives focused attention and expert guidance throughout the design and construction process. As Patrick Willis notes, “Our industry partners are vital to our success. We have assembled a trusted team of architects, designers and craftsmen to ensure every home is executed with the highest levels of innovation, beauty and precision.” 

Willis Custom Homes offers a diverse range of home styles – from maintenance-provided villas to expansive estate homes. Whether your preference is modern farmhouse, contemporary, Mediterranean, coastal or something entirely unique, we tailor each home to reflect your lifestyle and vision. Clients may choose from our extensive portfolio of thoughtfully designed plans or collaborate with us to create a fully custom home. Every plan is designed to maximize livability, functionality and long-term adaptability. 

Our homes are located throughout some of the Kansas City area’s most prestigious communities, including the Village of Loch Lloyd, Century Farms and The Sanctuary. We also offer opportunities in our newest communities, including Aventino, East Village and Regents Park, where our latest designs are showcased. 

Willis Custom Homes has been consistently recognized by the Home Builders Association for excellence in design and craftsmanship. Our signature plan, the Clydesdale, stands apart for its distinctive architecture and numerous accolades. As Willis explains, “Our homes are designed around how people live, work and entertain today – while anticipating how those needs will evolve over time.” 

While we are honored by industry recognition, our greatest measure of success is the trust of our clients. Much of our business comes from repeat clients and referrals – a testament to the relationships we build and the homes we deliver. 

“The greatest compliment a builder can receive is the opportunity to work with a client again,” says Willis. “We are honored by the trust our clients place in us and proud to bring their vision to life.” 

From our founder Bob Willis, to his son Patrick Willis, to the next generation led by Zack Willis, our legacy continues with the same commitment to excellence. Willis Custom Homes remains true to its promise – Building for Generations.
