Artisan’s Corner: Jonathan Blanchard of Blanchard Building and Properties

Blanchard

Here at Nest Realty, we love the businesses that help turn a house into a home. In this series, we chat with the builders, architects, designers, and other artisans behind these local businesses.

In this installment of Artisan’s Corner, we sit down with Jonathan Blanchard of Blanchard Building and Properties, Inc., a local company dedicated to providing curb appeal backed by substance.

Nest Realty: Tell us about yourself! What brought you to Wilmington?
Jonathan Blanchard: I am actually a local!

NR: How did you get into home building?
JB: I started off flipping houses; those renovations required a contractors license, which in turn led to the suggestion of building spec houses.

NR: What sets you apart? What makes you different from other builders?
JB: I provide an abundance of flexibility with my spec homes and I am much more hands-on than other builders. I also build out of a relationship position rather than a profit position, as I value those relationships more than the dollar.

 

NR: What is your proudest accomplishment as a builder?
JB: Developing. Being able to develop into minor development has been a huge accomplishment for me.

NR: What upcoming projects are you most excited about?
JB: I am currently excited about my development project for Pages Corner. I am also excited about being a hired out builder for a development company in Surf City!

 

NR: What are some ways you give back/strengthen our community?
JB: I invest financially into local organizations!

NR: What is your favorite part of being a builder?
JB: The flexibility of schedules.

NR: What do you love most about our area?
JB: The beach!

NR: What one piece of advice would you give to someone setting out on the home building journey?
JB: You need to find someone who is honest with you. The builder, the client—true transparency is key.
