Introducing Landmark Build Stories

Real Homes. Real People. Real Journeys.

At Landmark Building & Construction, we know that building a home isn’t just about lumber, permits, and square footage.

It’s personal.

For some, it’s a lifelong dream taking shape.

For others, it’s a turning point—a physical space to reflect emotional growth, change, and the decision to finally take up space in the world.

That’s why we’re launching Landmark Build Stories

a series that follows not just the homes being built, but the people building them.

These are the emotional blueprints behind the builds.


Meet Morgan: The First in the Series

Morgan is 30 years old, and one of our youngest homeowners to date—something worth celebrating in itself.

Morgan badillo

She’s a Delta flight attendant, a fiercely independent woman, and someone who’s spent the last few years telling the hard parts of life to get out of her way.

Her story isn’t wrapped in a bow—and that’s exactly why it matters.

Morgan has moved more times than she can count.

She’s lived in houses, in cars, and in the heavy fog of not knowing where she belonged. But something shifted.

This time, instead of running, she chose to build.

This is the moment Morgan plants her flag.


The Redline: Where It All Starts

Morgan recently sat down for her redline meeting—the phase where the vision becomes real.

Red Lining with Landmark Building

It’s the first time a homeowner starts to see their home not just as a plan, but as a process. Walls get reimagined, layouts shift, and decisions begin to stack.

She came in ready—with a clear sense of what she wanted, and an openness to discover what was possible.

She left supercharged—excited, focused, and officially all-in.

From flipping her bathroom and closet layout to chase natural light… to thinking ahead about future basement options… to dreaming up fireplace built-ins and foyer arches…

Morgan is making this home hers.

And we get to build it with her.


Why These Stories Matter To Us

Landmark Build Stories are about more than bricks and framing.

They’re about people—real people—deciding to trust the process, take the risk, and step into a chapter they’ve never written before.

This is the story of what it looks like to become.

We’re honored to kick off the series with Morgan—and we can’t wait to show you what comes next.


Morgan’s Landmark Build Story has officially begun.

Follow along.

We’ll be back with more to share soon.

In the meantime, follow along on Facebook and Instagram for real-time updates, behind-the-scenes videos, and more from Morgan’s build.
