12 Min Read

Often simply referred to as “OKC,” Oklahoma City is the capital and the largest city of the state of Oklahoma. It is divided in two by the North Canadian River, which bisects OKC into North Oklahoma City and South Oklahoma City. The north side contains the urban, fashionable and diverse neighborhoods along with a few affluent historical communities. On the other hand, the south side of the city mainly features Oklahoma City’s industrial side. 

We researched the custom home builders in The Big Friendly, and found the best 15: those with the best customer reviews, most awards, and build the highest quality homes in the area.

If you are thinking about building a custom home, we recommend checking each builder’s license with the local licensing board, speaking to past clients, and using our bidding system to get competitive quotes from at least 3 contractors.
