A builder’s first three years tell you most of what you need to know. Did the permits get pulled? Did the houses get finished? Did the license stay clean?
Vision Homes LLC is a raleigh custom builder licensed in 2022. In the three years since, city permit records show fourteen permitted projects, almost all new single-family construction, concentrated on Phoenix Place in southeast Raleigh. The state license is active with no public disciplinary record. We know this builder’s work, and it holds up.
The company has no working website we could find, so this guide is built from the license board and permit records. It is short on marketing claims because there are none to check.
Who Is Vision Homes LLC?
Vision Homes LLC is a Raleigh builder of custom single-family homes. The North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors lists it under license L.88581, first issued August 30, 2022, with a limited license limit and Building, Highway and Public Utilities (water lines and sewer lines) classifications. The license is active through December 31, 2026 (checked October 15, 2026). The board lists the company at 2840 Plaza Place, Suite 107A, Raleigh 27612, with phone (919) 762-2771.
Vision Homes LLC is listed as a builder member in the 2025 Home Builders Association of Raleigh-Wake County directory.
One naming note: the state board also lists a Vision Homes, Inc. (license not active), a UR Vision Homes NC Co. (not active) and an Envision Homes, LLC (a different, active company with its own page on this site). The contract you sign should say Vision Homes LLC and carry license L.88581.
Where Vision Homes builds
BuildZoom’s permit index places the company’s work on Phoenix Place in Raleigh’s 27610 ZIP code, with permits at 1000, 1001, 1003 and 1005 Phoenix Place. Permit descriptions reference “lot 3 Phoenix Place” and “new residential construction lot 77,” and list crawlspace foundations, walk-out basements, screened porches, electric fireplaces and water and sewer stubs. That last item explains the Highway and Public Utilities classifications on the license: the company pulls its own utility-connection permits.

What Should You Verify Before Signing With Vision Homes LLC?
A three-year-old company has a short track record by definition, so verify the specifics. Our guides to finding the right Triangle builder and why the builder’s agent works for the builder cover how to keep someone on your side.
Confirm the license limit covers your contract
Look up L.88581 on the state board’s site, confirm it is active, and check the limited license limit against your contract price.
Ask for completed addresses on Phoenix Place
The permits are public. Ask which of the Phoenix Place houses are finished and occupied, and ask to walk one with the owner.
Ask about lots and build-to-suit
The record shows the company building on lots in one location. Ask whether it will build on a lot you own, and whether it has lots available now.
Get the contract type and the warranty in writing
Nothing is published on pricing, allowances or warranty. Ask whether the price is fixed or cost-plus, how change orders are priced, and for the written warranty. Compare it with our home-builder warranty guide.
Final Thoughts About Vision Homes LLC From Tim Clarke
Fourteen permits in three years is real production for a young custom builder, and the permits show finished-house details, not just foundations. The license is clean. Those are the two things I check first, and both check out.
What the public record cannot tell you is how the company handles a change order or a late delivery. Ask the owners on Phoenix Place. Then get everything in writing.
I have spent 18 years in Triangle real estate. Our team builds as well as sells, so we know what a sound custom-build contract looks like from both sides of the table. The builder’s salesperson represents the builder. We represent you.
