Your Time is the Ultimate Luxury. We Protect It.
In 2026, building a custom home shouldn’t be a second job. Metropolitan Custom Homes provides a full-spectrum concierge service that manages every technical, logistical, and design detail, allowing you to simply enjoy the evolution of your legacy.
The Philosophy
White-Glove Stewardship
For over 30 years, Keith Husbands has understood that a custom home is the largest investment of your life—not just financially, but emotionally. Our Concierge Service is a partnership that begins the moment you decide to build.
We act as your Owner’s Representative. While we coordinate with elite firms like Align, Jay Corder, and Etch Design Group, our primary loyalty is to you. We filter the noise, resolve the conflicts, and present you with curated decisions rather than overwhelming problems.
The Concierge Journey
Phase 1
The Blueprint of Lifestyle (Pre-Con)
Site Advocacy: We don’t just “look” at lots. We perform deep-dive feasibility studies on Austin’s terrain to ensure your Hill Country Contemporary or Santa Barbara estate is positioned for the best views and optimal energy orientation.

Phase 2
The Invisible Excellence (Construction)
Code-Plus Inspections: While others meet Austin’s 2026 building codes, we ignore them in favor of higher standards. We employ *independent third-party inspectors* to verify structural integrity, moisture barriers, and air-tightness at levels most builders find “excessive.” We find them essential.
Proprietary Vendor Access: As charter members of *CB-USA Austin*, our concierge clients get “first-in-line” priority for the highest-skilled artisans and the latest 2026 appliances from Wolf/Sub-Zero and Miele.
Phase 3
The Smart Transition (Move-In)
Technology Handover: We manage the full commissioning of your integrated wireless systems, security, and backup power (Generators/Tesla Powerwalls), ensuring you know how to run your home from your phone on day one.
The Turnkey Move: From coordinating with white-glove movers to ensuring your preferred Silestone finishes are sealed and ready, we handle the “moving day” friction.
Phase 4
The 365 Commitment (Post-Occupancy)
Scheduled Wellness Checks: Your concierge relationship continues with formal performance reviews at 30, 90, and 365 days. We proactively check your variable-speed HVAC and high-efficiency systems to ensure they are performing as promised in the Texas heat.
