Every City. Every Lot Type. One Builder You Can Trust.
Building a custom home in the Tri-Cities is not a one-size-fits-all process. The permitting rules are different between Franklin County and Benton County. The site conditions on a hillside lot in Southridge, Kennewick are nothing like the raw acreage east of Prosser, where you might be starting with no power, no water, and no road. And what makes sense for a PNNL professional building their forever home on Badger Mountain South in Richland is a completely different conversation than a young family building their first custom home in West Pasco.
We’ve done all of it. That’s not a marketing line — it’s twelve years of building across every part of this region, with nearly 80 years of combined experience between John and Stephen Worlund behind every decision we make on your project.
When you work with Anasazi, you get one point of contact from the first conversation to the day you get your keys. John or Stephen — not a project manager you’ve never met. Not a call center. The people who built your home are the people who pick up the phone.

Where We Build — All Seven Cities
Pasco, WA — Our Home Base
Custom Home Builders in Pasco, WA
Pasco is where Anasazi Builders is based — 5019 Flores Ln is our home, and the Tri-Cities Airport, the Road 68 growth corridor, and the banks of the Columbia River are all part of the landscape we know best. We’ve built in Riverview, West Pasco, the Broadmoor area, and Pasco Heights. Franklin County permitting is something we’ve navigated dozens of times. If you’re building in Pasco — whether it’s your first home or your forever home — you’re building in our backyard.
Kennewick, WA — The Heart of the Tri-Cities
Custom Home Builders in Kennewick, WA
Kennewick is the largest of the three cities, and it’s where buyers who want a truly custom home often run into production builders offering semi-custom floor plans and calling it ‘custom.’ We’re different. Whether you’re building in Southridge near Canyon Lakes Golf Course, in the Apple Valley corridor, or in the elevated Highland neighborhoods with views toward the Columbia, we design your home from scratch — for your lot, your family, and your life.
Richland, WA — Where Precision and Craftsmanship Meet
Luxury Custom Home Builders in Richland, WA
Richland draws professionals from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the Hanford Site, and the universities — buyers who know the difference between well-built and everything else. We build luxury custom homes in Richland’s most sought-after communities: Badger Mountain South, Meadow Springs, Horn Rapids, West Village, and Reata Ridge. Richland buyers get the full Anasazi experience — complete design freedom, 3D renderings before a nail is driven.
West Richland, Benton City, Prosser & Burbank
Building Beyond the Three Cities
West Richland is one of the fastest-growing corners of the Tri-Cities. Larger lots, a quieter pace, proximity to the Yakima River, and a real sense of space — it’s where buyers who want a bigger canvas for their custom home often land. Neighborhoods like Tapteal and Paradise offer that combination of semi-rural feel with Richland amenities close by.
Benton City sits at the edge of Red Mountain wine country, where the high desert meets the Yakima River and the views go on for miles. We’ve built multiple homes in the Benton City–Prosser corridor, including on raw acreage where we brought in power, drilled wells, and installed septic systems from the ground up.
It shows up in how we communicate. We’re not hard to reach. We don’t go quiet once the work starts and resurface at the end. If something changes, you hear about it from us before you see it. If something isn’t right, we deal with it.
Prosser is one of the most overlooked build locations in the region — and one of the most rewarding. Horse Heaven Hills, the Yakima River, vineyard-view lots, and an agricultural lifestyle that city builders simply don’t understand.
Burbank sits where the Snake and Columbia Rivers meet — Two Rivers country, McNary Wildlife Refuge, and semi-rural lots in Walla Walla County that give buyers real space and real quiet.

Subdivision Lots to Raw Acreage — We Build Either Way
Most custom builders in the Tri-Cities will tell you they build on your lot. What they usually mean is: your lot, as long as it’s already in a subdivision with utilities stubbed and permits straightforward.
We mean something different.
We’ve built on raw land in Franklin and Benton counties where there was no power, no water, no paved road, and no existing infrastructure of any kind. We brought in the electrical connections, coordinated the well drilling, installed septic systems, managed the county permits, and graded the site before the first frame went up. Six of our homes in the Benton City–Prosser corridor were built exactly that way.
"We've gone from raw land and put in the electric power, the septic systems, the wells — and then built the house on top of it."
That kind of experience matters if you’ve got land outside the city limits and you’ve been told it’s ‘too complicated’ or ‘too far out’ by other builders. It might not be either of those things. Call us. We’ll tell you honestly what it takes.
If you don’t have land yet, that’s okay too. We can help guide you through the search and site selection process. The best time to involve a builder is before you buy the lot — not after.
Have land?
Before you assume your lot won’t work — call us. We’ve built where others said it couldn’t be done. Six homes on raw acreage in the Benton City–Prosser corridor alone.
We evaluate: site access, utility availability, soil conditions, county requirements, and view orientation.
Why Local Knowledge Matters When Building a Custom Home
The Tri-Cities is not one market. It’s several — each with its own permitting authority, its own topographic character, and its own buyer expectations.
Franklin County operates differently than Benton County. A Pasco city permit has different timing and requirements than a county permit for land near Prosser. The soil conditions in the Road 68 growth corridor are not the same as on elevated hillside lots above Kennewick. Wind loads in this part of Eastern Washington — and we do mean wind — have to be designed for from the foundation up.
John Worlund has been building in this specific geography for over a decade. Before that, he built in Fairbanks, Alaska and North Dakota — climates that make the Tri-Cities winter look mild — and brought back standards of construction that most local builders simply haven’t needed to develop. That extreme-climate experience translates directly to better-insulated, better-sealed, longer-lasting homes here.
When John assesses your lot, he’s not reading a checklist. He’s reading the land. He knows what the view will look like from the kitchen if we orient the home this way. He knows which contractor handles septic in this county. He knows how long permits take in this jurisdiction — not because he looked it up, but because he’s done it.
That’s what local knowledge actually means.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Service Area
What cities does Anasazi Builders serve?
We build fully custom homes throughout the Tri-Cities area and surrounding communities. Our primary service area covers Pasco, Kennewick, Richland, West Richland, Benton City, Prosser, and Burbank. We also build on rural acreage throughout Franklin and Benton counties, including sites that require full land development from the ground up.
Can you build on raw land outside city limits
Yes — this is one of our real differentiators. We’ve built on raw, undeveloped land where there was no existing power, water, or road infrastructure. We coordinate the full site development process: electrical connections, well drilling, septic system installation, grading, and all county permit work. If you’ve got land and you’re not sure what it would take to build on it, give us a call. We’ll be straight with you about what’s involved.
Does Anasazi Builders help clients find land?
We can help guide clients who are still searching for the right property. Most of our clients come to us with land already in hand, but if you’re still in the search phase, we can point you toward the right resources and advise you on what to look for before you buy. The best time to involve a builder is before you buy the lot — not after.
Do you build in Kennewick and Richland, not just Pasco?
Absolutely. While we’re headquartered in Pasco, we build across the entire Tri-Cities region. Kennewick and Richland are two of our most active build areas. In Kennewick we build throughout Southridge, Canyon Lakes, Apple Valley, and Highland. In Richland we build in Badger Mountain South, Meadow Springs, Horn Rapids, West Village, and Reata Ridge, among others.
What's the entry price for a custom home in the Tri-Cities?
Starting from approximately $450,000 for a basic custom home including land. The final number depends entirely on your choices — the site, the design, the finishes, and the scope. We value-engineer every project to get you the best possible home within your actual budget. We never quote per square foot — that number means nothing on a truly custom build.
Your lot. Your design. Your home.
Whether you're building in a Kennewick neighborhood, on a Richland view lot, or on raw acreage near Prosser — we've built there before, and we'd like to build your home there next.
