About Bob Buescher Homes
Bob Buescher Homes is a family-owned custom home builder serving Fort Wayne and northeast Indiana since 1977. Founded by Bob Buescher — who began his career as a framing subcontractor — the company is now led alongside his sons Logan (General Manager & VP of Remodel Division) and Austin (VP of Construction), making it a true multi-generational family business.
With over 2,050 homes built across nearly five decades, Bob Buescher Homes specializes in custom and semi-custom residences across 8 active communities in Fort Wayne's most sought-after school districts. Their 12 base floor plans range from 1,638 to 2,946 square feet and are designed to be fully personalized through their in-house design team, which includes a dedicated CAD designer and interior designer.
"We build every home with the same quality and pride as if we were constructing it for a member of our own family."
