ince 1999, MAG Builders has constructed personalized homes that bring the craftsmanship, individual style and fine finishes of a custom home within reach. Located in Denver, MAG Builders is a privately owned general contracting company catering to the residential market. The company takes pride in remaking some of Denver’s now most sought-after neighborhoods with its signature “Mountain Meets Modern” style homes that are personalized to fit the lifestyles of its clients. Founded by Michael Griger, MAG Builders is one of the most efficient homebuilders in the Denver metropolitan area. Serving clients throughout the state of Colorado, the company builds approximately 25 to 30 homes per year. A contributing factor to the speed with which MAG Builders is able to produce homes is that the company is self-financed. “We don’t use construction loans or anything like that,” says Griger. “We have a revolving line of credit as well as our own in-house trades.” While the average homebuilder takes six to eight months to build a 3,500-square-foot home, MAG Builders is capable of completing it in three months. 72
