Approach:
Personal, relationship-driven process with customizable floor plans ("Built by Autograph - it's personal")
Warranty:
[BRIAN & HOLLY: confirm - Autograph's specific warranty terms aren't publicly published. Ask the builder what coverage buyers receive (workmanship / systems / structural) and whether it's administered through a third-party warranty company like 2-10 or StrucSure, then state it precisely.]
Who Is Autograph Homes?
Autograph Homes is a newer Houston homebuilder that began constructing its first homes in 2025, with a deliberately personal, boutique approach - the name reflects the idea that they 'put their name on it.' Rather than a high-volume catalog, Autograph focuses on thoughtful design, quality construction, and a build experience driven by a real relationship with each buyer.
What gives a young builder credibility is the experience behind it. Autograph is founded and led by James Miller, a 36-year industry veteran who most recently served as a Partner and President of EHT of Texas - the U.S. division of Empire Communities - and who has contributed to the construction of more than 20,000 homes over his career. So while the company is new, the leadership is not.
[BRIAN & HOLLY: optional 1-2 sentences of your firsthand read - e.g. how their personal/semi-custom process has felt for buyers you've worked with in the community, or the quality you've seen in the models.]
How Autograph Builds
Autograph leans into customization and design — 'more customized floor plans' than a typical production builder, with the buyer's lifestyle guiding the structural and design decisions. In Two Step Farm specifically, their model homes showcase five floor plans ranging from roughly 1,765 to 2,497 square feet, with open kitchens, connected living spaces, and a focus on easy, livable layouts.
Because they build at a smaller, more hands-on scale than the national builders, the process is more personal — closer to a semi-custom experience. [BRIAN & HOLLY: which specific Autograph plans are offered here, the scope of customization available, and standout standard features locally.]
Autograph's Warranty, in Plain English
As a newer builder, Autograph's specific warranty terms aren't published publicly the way the large national builders' are. [BRIAN & HOLLY: confirm directly with the builder what coverage buyers receive — typically a workmanship period, a systems period, and a structural term, often backed by a third-party warranty company — and state it precisely here.] As your agents, we'll get the exact terms in writing and make sure you understand them before you sign — which matters even more with a newer builder.
