President Matthew Womack with Womack Custom Homes joins the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss new construction, commercial and remodeling projects in Cartersville. Womack joins host Carol Morgan on the All About Real Estate segment.
A fourth-generation builder, Womack is a UGA alumni and has been a part of the building industry his entire life. After graduating from college, Womack worked for a national home builder and then a smaller Atlanta builder to gain field experience. In 2016, Womack teamed up with his brother to form Womack Custom Homes and starting building throughout Cartersville and Bartow County.
Starting out, the brothers primarily focused on remodeling due to the high demand in the area. After flipping a few dilapidated homes, the team began to receive custom work requests that led to increased in-town remodeling work during their first year. From there, the company has branched off to include new construction as well as spec projects in 55 plus communities.
For clients questioning whether to remodel their current home or construct a new one, Womack Custom Homes recommends remodeling due to the current state of the real estate market.
Womack said, “Building from the ground up right now has definitely jumped [in price] …It’s kind of a difficult season in building right now.”
Womack Custom Homes is currently working on renovating the interior of a home that was originally constructed in 1916 r. Relocating from Atlanta, an empty-nester couple wished to distance themselves from the congested and pricy region and find a more affordable residence in North Georgia.
The team is also working on two homes less than 10 minutes from the downtown area. For the first client, Womack Custom Homes is redoing the home’s interior, and for the second, the team is creating an open-floor layout between the kitchen and living room to reflect today’s popular home trends.
As homes in Cartersville continue to age past the 20-year mark, many residents are looking to give their homes a facelift and Womack Custom Homes is uniquely positioned to meet their needs. The company has experienced incredible growth in almost eight years of business and is not slowing down any time soon.
In addition to working on residential projects, Womack Custom Homes has experience with commercial too. Some of the projects they have been involved with include commercial work for large corporations located in Cartersville including interior renovations and expansions.
In 2020, Womack Custom Homes was listed on the UGA Bulldog 100 list as one of the fastest-growing companies owned and operated by an alumnus in the state of Georgia.
Womack said, “We have eight projects going on right now and it’s just me and my brother.”
