The new Franchise Builders are:

• BDL Construction Group, South Shore, Massachusetts: The company began as Kamberi Family, LLC in 2007 as a collection of several small businesses. In 2022, they separated their construction operations, including commercial development, multi-family apartments and a small number of single-family residential homes, into BDL Construction Group led by Bes and Diana Kamberi.

• Timbertop Builders, Cookeville, Tennessee: Led by Chris Magda, Timbertop Builders will build in the Cookeville area. Magda has experience in real estate investment, development, construction and finance. Timbertop is his first venture into an integrated land development and home building company.

• BBG Homes, Ocala, Florida: Fernando Braff’s company has built more than 700 homes in Central Florida, serving a wide geographic footprint that includes areas just north of Orlando in Orange County and areas between Orlando and Ocala in Citrus and Sumter Counties. Their offering has been primarily production-style homes for first-time buyers and snowbirds.

• Southern State Homes, Wilmington, North Carolina: Father-son team Richard and Greg Wallace lead Southern State Homes, which has been building custom homes along the North Carolina coast for the last 15 years. The team has nearly five decades of residential building experience.
