For the fourth year in a row, MasterCraft Builder Group has been named “Best Home Builder” in The St. Augustine Record’s 2022 Best of St. Augustine reader’s poll. More than 97,000 votes were cast in this year’s program and we couldn’t be more thrilled to be recognized as the best of the best by our own St. Johns County community. Brothers Chris Shee, Founder and CEO of MasterCraft, and Brad Shee, President, as well as their wives, attended the awards ceremony on August 22nd at the World Golf Village Renaissance St. Augustine Resort.
This year, we asked some of our MasterCraft employees to weigh in on what the “Best Home Builder” win means to them.
“As a locally-owned and -operated home builder, it is a point of pride for us to be recognized as the ‘Best’ by the communities we serve. Everyone in our company works hard to deliver and support a quality product for our customers. It is not always an easy task, but it is rewarding when we are recognized as the ‘Best’ in our community, especially multiple years in a row. At MasterCraft, we strive to not only be the home builder our customers expect us to be, but also the one that our trades and suppliers want to work for. This recognition as ‘Best Home Builder’ by The St. Augustine Record is not only a testament to our employees that we are getting the job done, but also for those that work for us in that pursuit. Seth Kelley, Vice President of Purchasing
“I have known since I started working with MasterCraft Builder Group six years ago that this company is second to none, from the quality of our homes to investing in the community around us. It feels great to know that thousands of others agree and have honored us with this recognition for the fourth year in a row.” Victoria Downing, Vice President of Sales and Marketing
“Working for a company labeled as the ‘best in the area’ is extremely rewarding. I am honored to be a part of this stellar group as we are recognized throughout the entire community for our outstanding services and superior workmanship. It is rewarding to hear Realtor after Realtor walk through my model home door and have nothing but great things to say about MasterCraft. Not only in regards to the true quality and craftsmanship we are known for, but also for the numerous contributions to the community that our good fortune has allowed us to give back to and invest in the quality of life within our community which we all call home.” Jenny Borschel, Senior New Home Consultant
“I have been with MasterCraft Builder Group for just over a year and working for the Shee Brothers has been incredible. From their annual Clays for a Cause event to the benefit concerts at the Tringali Barn at Heritage Farms and even more recently their work with the First Annual Hometown Hero’s Motorcycle Ride – there are far too many others to mention. Chris and Brad’s philanthropy in the St Johns County community is amazing. I am honored to call myself part of the MasterCraft Builder Group Family.” Kris Cook, Vice President of Construction
