Southern Development began building fine homes in Central Virginia in 1999. It was started by Frank T. Ballif, a civil engineering graduate from the University of Virginia. In a manner uniquely its own, Southern Development oversees the "community development" process from start to finish. Beginning with a concept and raw land, Southern Development designs and master plans many of its projects from conception to home construction. This all encompassing strategy ensures that the development process produces an exquisite model for a fantastic community. Southern Development has had tremendous success developing communities and building homes in a wide variety of communities in Charlotttesville and its surrounding counties.We Provide Exceptional Customer Service.99% of our Customer Satisfaction Surveys report our homeowners would purchase again or refer a friend.

Other builders I have dealt with have had the former, but lacked the latter. Any concerns I ever had ( all minor ) were quickly addressed to my complete satisfaction. That is what truly sets them apart. I have never hesitated to recommend them to friends who are looking to build a home.""I would highly recommend the ownership of a Southern Development Home, not just because of its superb construction, but for the people that stand behind the construction.""you went above and beyond to make sure that my son's first home purchase was a dream come true. While he was out of the country and unable to see the homes completion in person, you made sure he had photos and was continually updated via email every step of the way. Only a company truly dedicated to providing the best in customer service satisfaction would go to such lengths."
