WE PLACE

At South River Custom Homes, We Build Trust
Corey Campbell
Owner, Builder, Entrepreneur
Corey graduated from James Madison University in 2003 and has been active in the Richmond home industry ever since. From selling to developing and now building, he is well versed in all aspects of new home construction. In his free time, he’s an avid outdoorsman and enjoys spending time with his wife and three kids.
Brittany Ogle
Office Manager
Meet Brittany, the South River Office Manager. When not running things behind the scenes at the home office, you can find her with her husband, Josh, and three kids – Carter, Zoey and Lynlee – making memories on the road in their camper. She was born and raised in Chesterfield and enjoys cooking, summer days at the pool and fall nights at the ball fields. She loves being apart of the South River team and expanding her construction knowledge from growing up with many contractors in her family.
Tom Manuel
Superintendent
Tom has over 35 years of experience in the residential construction industry. A perfectionist to the core, there’s no one better to entrust with the completion of your dream home. When he’s not on our job sites he loves to get away from it all by going camping or salt water fishing with his wife.
Marlo Bach
Selections Specialist
Marlo is our selections superstar. Her love and enthusiasm for design shines through in every home we build. If she’s not busy decorating a model or helping our homeowners select their lighting fixtures, she’s somehow finding time to raise two adorable little girls with her husband. Make sure to say hi to her next time you’re in Target!
Shawn Campbell
Warranty Specialist
Shawn is South River’s Mr. Fix-It. He loves working hands-on; solving problems, putting things together and going through our homes to make sure every last detail is finished to perfection. In his down-time he loves completing wood-working projects or going camping with his family.
John Tarnaski
Superintendent
John has a true love for hands on construction and has been involved in most phases including sales/small buz ownership as well as management of remodeling and of course new construction projects. He enjoys the ever changing products. In John’s free time he can usually be found fishing with his son or helping his wife chasing the chickens out of their garden.
Jennifer Gavin
Selections Specialist
Hi! I’m Jennifer. I live in Midlothian with my husband and two kiddos! South River built my dream home and it was such an amazing experience and the staff was un-matched so I thought what better company to work with than the one who built your dream home!
Concerning Our Home Collections
Our process is unique, providing a truly hands-on building process from OUR team. We understand that your home is more than just an address – it’s an expression of your vision and lifestyle. Your home is where you experience the best moments of life with family and friends. We handcraft each home with this understanding.
First, we will help you narrow down the community in which you want to live, then we help you in selecting the floor plan that is right for your expectations.
We determine the best site, after that, it is time to “build your house on paper”.
This is a time when we will sit down with you and go over all included features, in addition to any personalized amenities that you may want to add to your home.
(i.e., granite countertops, upscale appliances, hardwood floors, detailed trim work, etc.)
Building a home can be a stressful process, so we walk with you every step of the way as you move from the conceptual phase through the plans, home site choice, and selections process. Here is the roadmap to your new home:
- select a plan
- choose a lot
- customize your dream home
