JOHN STACKMAN NEWHALL JONES & STACKMAN, LLC President John Stackman lends his 30 years of experience and expertise in all aspects of home construction to every home he builds. John is a native Bellevue resident who has chosen to make the Bellevue area a lifelong home for his family. His wife is also a native of Monroe. John's career in both speculative and custome home constructions began in 1978 when he worked for a small custom homebuilder and mastered the technical elements of fine craftsmanship. Every home was constructed from start to finish with great personal attention to detail and little involvement from subcontractors. In 1984, John began his longtime business relationship with Greg Newhall and Gary Jones. He gained management experience in residential home building, managing multiple housing developments and subcontractors. Encore Custom Homes was launched in 1990, designing and building homes with its own staff. Encore's first Street of Dreams home was built in 1995 and was followed by 3 other notable Street of Dreams homes. They held the record for the most awards given to one Street of Dreams builder for many years. By 2000, John was made partner of Newhall, Jones and Stackman, LLC and Encore Custom Homes. The company continues its tradition of building longstanding relationships with past homeowners, subcontractors, architects, real estate professionals, as well as city and county licensing, permitting and zoning divisions. "I TELL PEOPLE WE DO NOT BUILD SPECULATIVE HOMES BUT RATHER SEMI-CUSTOM HOMES..." Newhall Jones & Stackman takes pride in exacting standards and detail on every housing division they build. One of the many things that makes NJS unique is the properties they purchase. John takes the time to find properties that will stand the test of time. Location is very important, but so is uniqueness. NJS looks for properties that they would live in. "... SMALL COMPANY SIZE WITH A BIG HISTORY OF CLIENT SATISFACTION..." Communication is the key to building longterm relationships based on trust. Our small company size with a big history of client satisfaction is invaluable to our clients. Newhall Jones & Stackman, LLC is more than just a home builder. When we find a project, we research what is important to the buyer and find out what we can do to make our homes special. I will tell people that we do not build speculative homes but rather semi-custom homes. For example we review each and every plan for each lot and discuss the possibility of how a view might be captured by window placement and design, the lighting of kitchen work areas or the height of showerheads. Every detail is important. The result is a home of timeless beauty, lasting impressions and livability which exceeds expectations. John enjoys the challenge of working with different people and personalities. The reward is establishing trust and giving homeowners homes they cherish. He would be honored to bring his experience and expertise of many past home projects to anyone seeking to build a custom home.
