A Reputation Earned
35 Years of Building Trust, Homes and Community
Saddlebrook Properties
Building homes is about building trust. And for more than 35 years, Saddlebrook Properties has been doing just that. Family-owned and operated, Saddlebrook has built thousands of homes and today counts more than 3,800 Knoxville-area homeowners among its customers.
From the beginning, the company’s ambitions extended beyond building houses. “We wanted to create communities where people genuinely want to live and feel proud to call home,” says Brian Mohney, President of Saddlebrook Properties. “We believed that our business should be built on integrity, reputation, and doing the right thing for our customers.”
It’s also built on a commitment to making lives better. “We are grateful for the opportunity to improve lives,” Mohney says. This is accomplished through Saddlebrook’s involvement in organizations such as the Widowed Parent Relief Project, THRIVE Knoxville, Fresh Start Home Project, and Ronald McDonald House.
That involvement has given Saddlebrook an intimate knowledge of Knoxville. “Instead of using complex demographic data to choose our projects and the product we build,” Mohney explains, “we like to get in the car and see what we can learn about an area. We understand our community’s lifestyles and patterns inherently. If you are around long enough, familiarity could look more like insight.”
On Display at the Parade of Homes
Of this year’s Parade of Homes, Mohney describes it as “a great reflection of the variety of lifestyle living that Saddlebrook offers. Our homes represent several different communities, some of which will be making their Parade of Homes debut. I’m especially excited about the way the homes showcase what today’s buyers are looking for,” he says. “The interior selections, finishes, floor plans, and home features are very current and on point with today’s desired style of living. I think visitors will really enjoy seeing the variety; not just in the homes themselves, but in the different lifestyles and communities they represent.

Making Homebuilding Less Complicated
Building a home involves hundreds of decisions. Saddlebrook has developed a streamlined process intended to make the decision making more manageable. Buyers choose their community, homesite and floor plan, then personalize their home with an in-house designer at Saddlebrook’s Knoxville Design Studio, which offers a number of customizable and standard options. “When we sell a new home to be built, we aim to meet our customers’ needs well before construction begins.”
Word of Mouth. It’s How We’ve Built Our Business.
Perhaps one of the strongest indications of Saddlebrook's reputation isn't the number of homes it has built. It's where many of its next customers come from. Mohney says many clients first contact the company because someone else recommended it. That's significant in an industry where the relationship between buyer and builder can last months and involve one of the largest purchases a family will ever make.
After more than 35 years, that may be the best measure of Saddlebrook's success. Thousands of homes tell one part of the story. Homeowners willing to recommend the company to friends and family tell the rest.
