Oh hey there !

I’m Rachel Schaefer, founder of Arleigh Homes and a Twin Cities custom home builder with nearly two decades of experience in the corporate event planning and project management space. If there’s one thing my time in the field has taught me, it’s that organizing and executing a project is anything but easy.

Whether it’s organizing a 2,000+ person conference or building a home from scratch, every detail matters. That’s why I created my business to address the biggest pitfalls that most homeowners face during the design and construction process, from unrealistic timelines, lack of communication, and unorganized work.

Let’s build your dream home together.

How I Build Homes Differently

Arleigh Homes was built to tackle custom home building the way it was meant to be done. 

My no-nonsense, communication-driven approach ensures you get a high-quality home without all the unnecessary drama.

With honesty, integrity, and unwavering attention to detail, I make the process as smooth and transparent as possible.
