Trust the Process Podcast

A real-time brainstorm on a brand-new community: the Mesa Verde Enclave, a small gated cul-de-sac of four custom homes in Silverado Ranch. Krista and Michael talk through how the project came to Trust, why the timing finally worked, and bringing a fresh transitional, modern-farmhouse design language to the Las Vegas desert.

Krista and Michael pull back the curtain on spec level, the hidden risk of under-spec'ing a build, and the finishes that move both cost and buyer perception.

From the outside, a homebuilder can look like a large operation with endless resources. In reality, it's a small team juggling multiple projects at once. Krista and Michael pull back the curtain on how the business really runs day to day, where their time goes, and the early stages most people never see.

Trust Home Builders steps into multifamily. Michael and Krista break down their first major multifamily development — a 79-unit downtown Las Vegas project — covering how the deal came together, the unique downtown buyer, taking over a partially built site, financing and phasing at scale, and delivering attainable new construction.

Is now a good time to build? Krista and Michael go behind the numbers on vendor pricing, construction costs, and the real factors that drive when and how builders make pricing decisions, from trade availability to market timing.

Is the market turning? Krista and Michael dig into early-2026 indicators, shifts in buyer activity, inventory, interest rates, and the broader economic signals they're watching for signs that momentum is returning after a tough 2025.

Welcome to Season 2. Krista and Michael share who they are, how Trust Home Builders grew from early infill projects into a brand with 100+ homes planned over the next two years, and what it takes to keep building in today's Southern Nevada market.
