South Florida, beautifully built.

South Florida’s boutique custom homebuilder, specializing in high-end craftsmanship from Port St. Lucie to Boca Raton.

Why we're different

KJA is different. We don’t put profit ahead of our clients’ peace of mind.

Since we only take on 5–6 projects a year, we personally show up on your site every single day. We know your job like we know our own homes. We act as an extension of your team. When you call, we answer. When you have a concern, we listen.

There’s no point in turning over a beautiful new home if you hated the experience that got you there. For us, the customer journey is just as important as the way the house looks.

Who we are

Almost everyone has a construction horror story.

  • Maybe you hired a builder who came highly recommended, only to find they didn’t show up every day—or worse, they sent someone else to run your job.
  • Maybe you were promised a budget and completion date that were never met.
  • Maybe you had questions or concerns, and no one called you back.

Our Promise

  • 5–6 a year

    We only take on five or six projects a year, so we are personally on your site every single day — not a substitute superintendent.

  • You get a call back

    When you call, we answer. When you raise a concern, we listen and it gets handled that week.

  • No surprises

    If something is in scope but outside budget, or has to change on the fly, you hear it from us first — good, bad, or indifferent.

Our goal is to be open, honest, and transparent every step of the way.

About the owner

Founder & Owner · 45 years

Ken Schwebel

Ken cut his teeth in the carpenters union in New York City (he may have even lied about his age to join, but that’s a story for another day), working on iconic commercial and residential buildings across the Manhattan skyline.

He went on to start his own general contracting company during the Westchester County real estate boom — and has built custom homes for the last 45 years, from 180‑acre estates in Bedford, NY to oceanfront residences on Palm Beach Island.
