About
The StudioBuilt Difference
The StudioBuilt difference is what makes our homes so special. Through StudioBuilt, we are building what we call “healthy homes” – homes that are inherently built to be healthier for the occupant, the community, and the environment. We are also providing more choices to our residents and offer features that are much above typical standard features.
Our mission is to positively impact the single-family home market by providing quality, long-lasting homes in communities of opportunity where people want to live, work, and go to school. Because our StudioBuilt capabilities are flexible and can be built for any lot, it's an incredibly effective solution for communities to combat vacancies while adding new single-family housing supply. The positive impact of our StudioBuilt product is made possible by Amherst's development and operational capabilities, enabling StudioBuilt homes to be built in partial or full communities with a full suite of resident and property management services.
“We are revolutionizing traditional homebuilding practices one home at a time. Whether as a renter or buyer, we are providing the single-family market with home qualities historically unheard of in this business, which are speed, choice, and affordable luxury.”

StudioBuilt Cuero
StudioBuilt launched its first housing studio in Cuero, Texas, by purchasing and revitalizing a previously closed textile factory which helped restore the 200+ jobs that were lost when the textile mill closed in 2016. Through local community outreach and engaging with area trade schools, StudioBuilt has filled the facility’s manufacturing jobs by hiring locally from Cuero and surrounding areas. The roles include valuable technical training, as well as specialized skills training development for modular housing production.
The trade-focused training that StudioBuilt provides gives employees experience and skills for careers in concentrations like framing and cabinetry, as well as other upskilling from traditional construction backgrounds. These newly created manufacturing jobs are in a safe, climate-controlled environment inside the facility, which better supports the safety and welfare of our employees while enhancing their experience.
