The March 2025 RESNET® HERS® Builder of the Month is Younger Homes in Austin, TX. Younger Homes prides itself on constructing beautiful, sustainable, energy efficient custom and semi-custom homes in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Serving the greater Austin area, the family-run home builder works to make a healthy and sustainable lifestyle accessible to everyone. We talked with Managing Member Jesse Younger about what makes their homes so special. Jesse tells us, “As part of our commitment to the Energy Star, EPA Indoor AirPLUS, and the Zero Energy Ready Home Program, we ensure that all of our homes are HERS rated. This objective metric gives our team peace of mind, knowing we have assembled all the right components to meet performance standards for our clients for years to come.” Jesse references their recent custom build, the Texas Hill Country Haven. “We recently completed a 10,000+ square foot home in the Hill Country of Austin, Texas, which is filled with natural light. Through careful planning in design and construction, we achieved a HERS rating of -30 for this home. Homeowners should consider choosing a builder who prioritizes their health and the home’s resilience while also maintaining a customized aesthetic. With a HERS-rated home, clients can confidently expect consistent energy efficiency for years to come.” Read the full profile here.
