The Future

Ole South continues to be known as Tennessee's Favorite Home Builder, adding new locations and neighborhoods offering unprecedented value to the quality of life throughout Middle Tennessee.

"We got a chance to visit many communities and look at homes and home plans from many builders. From the big national chain builders to smaller local guys, no one seemed to be able to offer the quality of home at the price that Ole South could. A unique home that fit our needs and was customized to our desires. With a no pressure sales process, it was a unique experience that we were surprised to see and one of the reasons we live happily in our Ole South home today. "
