ABOUT AMA BUILDERS

A family behind every project.

We began as real estate investors. Today, we build with the same care and commitment we look for in our own projects.

OUR STORY

Before we were builders, we were the clients.

We began as real estate investors: finding land, developing our own projects and hiring builders. Experiencing construction from that side taught us the value of clear communication, attention to detail and a team you can trust.

In 2019, we began managing construction on our own projects. That experience grew into AMA Builders, and in 2023 we earned our Florida building contractor license.

Founded by three brothers, AMA carries our mother’s name: the A from Angela and MA from Maria. She is no longer with us, but her values—honesty, keeping our word and taking care to do things well—remain part of how we work.

Today, we build homes and investment properties with the same idea that brought us here: care for every project as if it were our own.

OUR COMMITMENT

We build the way we would want someone to build for us.

You deserve a team that listens, explains and stays involved. Whether we are building your home or an investment property, our commitment is to care for both the construction and the trust you place in us.

Honesty

We speak clearly about scope, budget and project decisions so you know what to expect.

Commitment

We stay close to the work and in touch with you, from the first steps through delivery.

Quality

We take care with the details and the work that carries our name, throughout every stage of construction.
