History

George first became interested in home building as a teenager.  Living RoomWorking as a union carpenter until 1989, George decided to get back to his love of building homes and started his own construction company.  The first home George built was a speculative home that sold before the drywall went on.  In 1992, the company received the “Hancock County Builder of the Year” award. 

“This was especially meaningful for us,” George says, “because this was a vote of confidence from our peers – other builders from the Builders Association.”

George Sherman homes currently range from $125K to $800K and are fully customizable to meet your specific lifestyle needs, desires and dreams.

Woman-Centric MattersSM

George Sherman isn’t happy with only being one of the top builders in the area.  He wants to be the ONLY builder in the area that takes the women-centric approach.  Why?  Because that means you are getting the best builder, the best service, and the best home available.

Why  

  • George Sherman learned that women directly purchase or have a controlling influence in the purchase of 91% of all new homes.  (Smith-Dahmer Associates, NAHB IBS) 
  • George Sherman learned that when the purchasing experience is geared toward her perspective, adding value to the products or services she is purchasing, men benefit, too.  A woman-centric approach just makes sense to her and to him!
  • We sought out the best possible woman-centric advice available.  There’s no doubt about it, Design Basics, the nation’s largest home plan design service to the building industry, had the woman-centric answers we were looking for. 
  • Their program, Woman-Centric MattersSM    is an excellant  approach to home design, building and the  customer experience.  That’s why we're  proud and pleased to be an exclusive Woman-Centric MattersSM licensee for central Indiana.

Our Values

As a Woman-Centric MattersSM licensee, George Sherman is proud to state the following as our core values:

  • Wood FloorsWe are dedicated to creating home designs that resonate for how you live – with a special emphasis placed on areas for de-stressing, entertaining, storage and flexible living.
  • We are dedicated to saving the customer time and adding convenience with everything from our convenient office location to re-designing the customer’s purchase experience. 
  • We are dedicated to giving both men and women the best value in every way possible.  Men typically define “value” in terms of lowest price.  While price is important, women most often think in terms of “best overall value”, including aspects such as trust and customer service.
  • We are dedicated to addressing home safety and health concerns women have in their frequent roles as primary caregivers and nurturers.  “By 2010, about ½ the women in America over 49 will be caregivers for someone in her family.” – LifeSpring Environs, Inc.
  • We are dedicated to reducing stress both in the purchasing experience and in the home design.  “Stress in her life is the #1 compelling theme for women.” – Mary Lou Quinlon in Just Ask A Woman
  • We are dedicated to becoming our customers’ new home investment counselor.  We care about you, your concerns, and your future, and we want to help you make wise, informed decisions.
