Do you read what you sign at closing?

Most builders don't.

When your client's lender sends closing documents to the title company — those docs often contain language that works against your contract and your business.

And most builders sign them without ever reading a word.

We're changing that.

Trouble at the Title Company — a free Lunch and Learn for home builders and remodelers.

Come learn what to look for, what to push back on, and how to protect yourself at the closing table.

We’re excited to share that Zbranek and Holt Custom Homes is a Best of Houzz 2026 winner.

If you have ever built a custom home, you know it is equal parts planning, decision-making, and a few “Wait… which tile did we love again?” moments. This award is a meaningful nod to the people behind every project. Our clients who trust us with their homes. Our team who sweats the details. And our partners who help us bring it all to life. Thank you for letting us do what we love!

Every beautiful home has its secrets — and most of them involve a structural engineer and a lot of problem-solving.

Big spans. Challenging terrain. Creative load paths. The result looks effortless… and that’s exactly what makes it exciting.

This Lake Travis home showcases incredible craftsmanship inside and out. Outdoors, the infinity pool was built directly into the slab of a cliffside lot, pairing fire and water elements with panoramic views. Inside, glass walls, dramatic archways, and custom finishes create spaces as breathtaking as the view.

Travis Club has launched Phase 2 of homesite sales with exceptional momentum. More than 100 homesites have been quickly claimed, leaving only a limited selection remaining in Phase 1. The community’s growth reflects the rising demand for high-quality, gated residential living just outside of Austin.

✨Just when everyone thought the best lots in Phase One were gone—surprise!✨ Zbranek & Holt has secured Lot 33 on Vergari Drive, the finest lot remaining lot in Phase One.

We’ve designed an extraordinary home to take full advantage of the expansive 180-degree views of the Hill Country and Lake Travis. This one is going to be something truly special!
