Stephanie Villanueva is proud to be part of the Villanueva Construction legacy of building beautiful homes for over 30 years. The company rallies around its slogan, “The Valley’s Original Builder” for good reason. Its long history in business predates many new start-ups and is a testament to its enduring reputation as a quality builder.
As a member of this family-owned company, Stephanie Villanueva’s role is one that promises to take the company to the next level. She was instrumental in incorporating the high-performance requirements of the BUILT TO SAVE™ program into homes built by Villanueva Construction. While many builders choose to do the bare minimum standards required by law, Villanueva Construction opted to build homes that are superior to what is required, and these homes have the certifications to prove it.
Stephanie’s vision for the future is to continue doing what has given the company its success—building beautifully detailed homes at affordable prices—but doing it even better. To be clear, Stephanie’s vision is a reality now. Villanueva Construction has received awards from Magic Valley Electric Cooperative for building the most homes in the BUILT TO SAVE™ Program. This year, the company also received an award from the AEP Texas High Performance Home Program in recognition of their achievements in the field of energy efficient construction.
True to the nature of most women, Stephanie handles multiple tasks and does it well. She is responsible for working with customers to help them with interior design and decorating, which includes choosing colors and materials, and making sure they fit their customers’ tastes. She prides herself in satisfying every customer as best she can. With Stephanie at the helm, the legacy of this company is sure to continue.
Maria Sandoval has been with Villanueva Construction since its beginning over 30 years ago.
Today, she manages this growing company’s office and staff. The vast knowledge that she has attained over the years is invaluable, and her caring and motherly style is a special strength that is loved by all. She is very proud of her family members, and it shows in her work and in the office atmosphere.
Aside from the day-to-day financial duties and personnel management work that is required to run the office, Maria Sandoval plays a major role in providing the company’s homebuyers with the customer service they deserve. Her relationship with customers is one big reason the company always gets excellent customer satisfaction reviews. Her knowledge, her straightforward honesty, and her enthusiasm about her work create a positive homebuying experience for clients. Customers learn quickly that they can feel confident that Maria Sandoval is there to help walk them through the homebuying process right up to the closing on their dream home.

I’m inspired to succeed because… today’s times have changed; I want to show that women can be a force in the construction industry.
Our company is best known for… being the “Valleys Original Builder”! Our reputation speaks for itself. We have been helping Río Grande Valley families achieve the American Dream of home ownership for over 30 years.
My drive for success comes from… my parents. I want to continue their legacy of building beautiful homes at an affordable price. I hope this legacy will pass down to my children to show them that hard work and dedication are important.

Best business advice I followed is… to always be responsible, honest, and enthusiastic about my work. I think it is important that my co-workers, and, especially, our customers know that I can be trusted to do I what I say I will do. Being honest and enthusiastic are both important because they help me keep a positive attitude about everything.
The thing I am most proud of is… my family. As a family-owned and operated business, we all share many responsibilities to make sure that our company is successful. The love that we share for each other as a family helps us overcome whatever challenges we face at work.
The secret to our company’s success: The many years of being in business have given us knowledge and experience that only time can give. We have mastered the art of building superior, energy efficient homes of great value, and we have perfected our skills at customizing homes with exceptional beauty. Our success is that we are able to do all of this at very affordable prices for our customers.
People choose us because… of our company’s reputation for quality construction that provides excellent value with many elegant details that most companies consider add-ons. One of the most common reasons many people choose us is because they trust what they have been told by our past customers who spoke highly about our homes.
My job is most rewarding when… I hand over the keys of a new home to my customers. I enjoy seeing their excitement and appreciation for what we’ve created. I never get tired of hearing how much they love their new home. It’s those moments that make all the work very meaningful to me.
I’m inspired to succeed because… it is important to continue to provide the high quality standards we have set for ourselves, no matter what challenges may lay ahead. The company’s future and the future of upcoming generations in our family depend on our success.
