A Passion for Building Things Right

Tim’s interest in architecture and home building started at a young age. Driven by a desire to offer home buyers a personal, transparent building experience, he established DreamBuilder Custom Homes in 1999. Over the last two decades, Tim has earned a reputation across Oregon for honest communication, practical problem-solving, and uncompromising quality.

Expertise You Can Count On

Building a custom home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make. Tim focuses on guiding clients through every step of the process—from land evaluation to long-term performance:

• Land Due Diligence: Helping buyers evaluate challenging lots, slopes, and permitting constraints before purchasing land to avoid costly mistakes.

• Energy-Efficient Building: Designing high-performance homes that lower energy bills, protect indoor air quality, and stay comfortable year-round.

• Custom Design & Function: Creating tailored floor plans that fit your lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals without relying on cookie-cutter designs.

• Hands-On Project Oversight: Working directly with trusted local subcontractors to ensure quality craftsmanship from foundation to finish.

Giving Back to Our Community

To Tim, building a great community goes beyond job sites. Every year, Tim and the DreamBuilder team partner with Community Vision to remodel and adapt homes for local individuals facing life-threatening health conditions and mobility challenges.
