Building Lasting Value Through Affordable, Custom Homes
Trusted Idaho Home Builders Dedicated to Your Vision
HiLine Homes specializes in custom homes in Idaho. With nearly 30 years of expertise in the homebuilding industry, our “on your lot” process allows homeowners to build their ideal homes in their preferred building lots. Through every home we build, including yours, our status as a custom homebuilder is reflected in craftsmanship, experience, and commitment.
A Tailored Approach to Every Idaho Home Build
Building a home is one of life’s most meaningful milestones, especially for first-time buyers seeking confidence and support. As your trusted home builder in Idaho, our team guides you through the home-building process from start to finish.
Here is how we tailor our services to your needs.
Permitting
Acquiring permits is one of the homeowner’s responsibilities in our homebuilding process. However, we assist you by providing resources on who to call and where to go based on the lot’s local and state requirements.
Land Evaluation
Every lot is unique. Our in-house team assesses your lot to determine access, elevation, and the estimated costs of the foundation.
Approved Lender Network
Our network of approved lenders gives you access to lending programs suitable for your financial profile. Complete our prequalification form to determine which financing option is best for you.
On Your Lot, On Time, Built Right!
At HiLine Homes, your vision matters—and we’re here to make sure it’s realized with confidence, clarity, and care.

Our Unique Offers That Set Us Apart
HiLine Homes stands apart from other Idaho home builders through our delivery of affordable, quality-driven homes. With decades of construction experience and a transparent homebuilding process, we help families build Idaho homes that align with their goals and budget.
Quality You Can Count On in Leading Home Communities
- Multi-Point Quality Assurance for Lasting Value
Our Multi-Point Quality Control System is designed to uphold the highest construction standards at every phase of your home build. Each Idaho home that we build undergoes a detailed inspection at each stage of construction before proceeding to the next.
- Price-Lock Guarantee for Budget Confidence
In our Price-Lock Guarantee, we promise to lock the price of your home if construction begins within 120 days of the order date, and that the project continues with consistent progress.
- Equity-Building Pathways for Your Family’s Future
HiLine Homes helps homeowners build equity by outlining their responsibilities throughout the homebuilding journey. With our on-your-lot model, homeowners can leverage personal involvement and land ownership to increase their home value. Our clients gain sweat equity by participating in aspects of their construction journey, turning effort into lasting investment.
Idaho Home Building Services Designed for You
HiLine Homes proudly serves families seeking custom-built homes that reflect their lifestyle, location, and long-term goals. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, growing family, or investor, our home builders deliver quality construction across Idaho.
With over 50 home plans, each home build fulfills different needs. Are you looking for a single-family home, a multigenerational house, or a duplex? Whichever the case, each plan has a selection of standard and custom features to choose from.
Custom Homes
Our custom homes are designed for comfort, efficiency, and value. From layout to finishes, we ensure beauty and function while supporting your goal to build equity in your home.
Custom ADUs
An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a smart way to expand your living space or generate income while maximizing your building lot’s potential. At HiLine Homes, we can build your ideal home along with your detached or attached ADU.
Multi-Generational Homes
More and more families are embracing the multigenerational lifestyle (living together with more than one adult generation). We help homeowners find homes that provide shared spaces and private retreats for all.
Duplexes
Duplexes are an ideal choice for families or investors looking to balance affordable housing with long-term equity growth. Our duplex home plans provide both privacy and opportunity, allowing homeowners to generate rental income or host their loved ones on the same property.
Idaho Shell Programs
HiLine Homes’ shell programs offer a unique way to build Idaho homes with more flexibility and cost control. We handle the complete exterior construction (roof, doors, siding, and windows), while you or your chosen contractors finish the interior. This approach is ideal for hands-on homeowners looking to gain sweat equity and manage their home build at their own pace.
Build-to-Rent Homes with Custom Finishes
HiLine Homes supports investors and developers seeking reliable build-to-rent opportunities in Idaho’s growing housing market. Our construction process is tailored for long-term investment, combining quality materials with efficient timelines and flexible layouts.

The Macroeconomic Tailwind: Growth, Stability, and Opportunity
Idaho’s thriving economy is creating an ideal environment for investors and families seeking long-term value. With the region’s lower-than-national-average unemployment rate (3.7%) and robust labor market across technology, healthcare, and other industries, the demand for quality Idaho homes is rising.
HiLine Homes stands at the forefront of this opportunity to help expand Idaho’s housing market through affordable, high-quality home builds that are built to last.
Financial Advantages: Tax Environment and Cost of Ownership
Idaho offers a uniquely favorable financial landscape for both homeowners and investors. With its flat income tax rate of 5.3% for both individuals and corporations, along with a low property tax rate of just 0.48%, the cost of homeownership is significantly lowered. This advantage distinguishes Idaho from high-tax states.
This affordable tax environment helps families and retirees manage ongoing costs. It also allows them to enjoy the benefits of owning a custom-built home tailored to their lifestyle.
The Property Tax Reduction Program further enhances affordability by offering up to $1,500 in relief annually for qualifying homeowners, easing long-term financial commitments. These savings directly reduce the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) over time, making custom construction not only attainable but also financially strategic compared to purchasing an existing property.
