First and foremost, a Silver Developers classic home is built to last. Because every home is built to the environment, site specific, and built with classic techniques and materials, it is a home that will truly last a lifetime. A house is far more than a home. It’s where life memories are created and shared. Attention to the smallest details, integrity and dedication to thinking outside the box is what Silver Developers is founded on. Write up your dream list, we’ll make that list become a reality!
Silver Developers is a construction firm based in Raleigh, NC. Licensed in NC, SC, TN, and VA as a Commercial builder. Vince DeFreitas, President of Silver Developers has acted as the general contractor and project managed the construction of over 100 residential & commercial projects. Vince is also licensed as a NC real estate broker.
Every home we design and build is based on site specific realities. The surrounding views, the lighting at various times of the day, the physical space and what is around it. Clear and open communication throughout the building process is what we are best at. Identifying issues before they arise and helping the home owners with the decision process be as seamless as possible.
We are members of the Green Home Builders of the Triangle and take our environmental responsibility seriously. We strive to be good stewards of the land we at least temporarily, call home.
We pride ourselves on working with the best resources and craftsman around. Many have worked with us for 10 years or more. We only work with craftsmen who have a personal involvement and commitment to a project. They know we are driven to come up with new ideas. We try and conceive every angle. We feel that our work is a constant learning experience. Once we stop doing that, it is just a job.
We like to tell our clients and prospective clients, you can work all year to get two weeks off and go somewhere else to relax and have fun. Why not make everyday of your life a holiday?
