New Home Development From a Trusted Kansas City Local

Jim and his family are long-time residents of Kansas City. They have been in the housing development business for several decades as custom home builders, with a legacy spanning more than 50 years. Jim has crafted his vision and skills over a lifetime, having started out working on new home building sites at the age of 11. He completed two degrees before working his way back on to building sites and founding Riffe Homes, Inc. Jim is a renowned Master Builder. He loves his work, and the families and communities he serves as a custom home builder and housing community developer. When you choose to live in a Riffe Homes community, you know you are living in a development built by one of your own, not by an outside developer coming in to make a quick buck. Diligent planning and attention to detail are put into every home in the community—Jim makes sure of that. Residents will be proud of their community, their home, and their investment.

In the early 1950’s, Jim’s grandfather, Winston Thompson, began developing housing communities and building new homes along Blue Ridge Boulevard. Jim’s father, Hank Riffe, learned the trade of building fine homes from his father-in-law, Winston, in 1955. Hank went on to continue the tradition of developing custom homes for communities and providing housing to over 1,000 local families. This gave Jim exposure at an early age to a successful housing development business, as well as plenty of hands-on experience working with custom home builders.

After graduating from the University of Kansas School of Engineering and receiving his Masters from University of Missouri’s Business Administration program, Jim began building custom homes in Johnson County, Kansas. This education, combined with a long family tradition of home building and community development, gives Jim the perfect platform for creating single-family home communities that reflect value for generations of homeowners.

As the new home market grew and home buyers continued to become more sophisticated in their desire for innovative design and exceptional quality, Jim continued the family tradition by specializing in premier communities and new houses being built by custom home builders. Since 1985, Jim has teamed up with countless families to see their home building dreams come true.
