A home of your own, just the way you dreamed it.

Founded in 1976 by Irving and Melvin Schottenstein, M/I Homes is dedicated to building homes of uncompromising quality, innovative design and enduring value in the best, most desirable locations possible. To put it simply, we care about our homebuyers.

If a problem arises, we ask ourselves, "Would I be satisfied if this were my new home?"

We instill this "we care" philosophy in every associate at every stage of the homebuilding process. It's what we believe. It's how we run our Company.

That's why we build homes for every taste and every stage of life from the first-time buyer to the empty nester.

That's why, for more than three decades and more than 78,000 customers, home is a two-letter word: M/I®.

It's why we instituted our unique Confidence Builder Program with its checks and accountability features that assures you that you're truly getting a better home. And you can see it for yourself every step of the way.

Our commitment to caring continued with the addition of Professional Interior Designers and Design Centers, where your vision can be nurtured with the vast array of options and choices that make your new home a perfect reflection of your dreams.

It continues with Energy Star®. Every M/I home is 100% Energy Star® Certified and that means a lot more than the Energy Star® appliances we install. It means that we strictly adhere to the rigorous Energy Star® construction; standards that only 20% of new homes in built in America today meet. The result is a home that saves as much as 30% on energy bills when compared to a house built to code. And while you're saving money, you home is also saving valuable resources for the good of our planet.

It even extends to this website, where you can use the "My Favorites" and Envision features to review designs, compare floorplans, communities and build your own file cabinet of favorites. It makes home shopping fun, comfortable and as convenient as possible.

While other builders may offer similar home styles or build in neighboring locations, our personal pride, dedication to superior craftsmanship and commitment to homeowner service are uniquely our own. Our reputation is something we've earned, one home at a time. With each new home we work to strengthen the important bond of trust that unites us with our homebuyers, because we know our greatest asset is a satisfied homeowner.

Everything we do is with one purpose in mind: to provide you with a home of your own, just the way you dreamed it. It's why more and more people gravitate to our higher standards and move up to M/I Homes.
