Get In Touch With Olsen Communities

I’ve gotten to know Justen and Eric through our NAHB Builder 20 group, where we work together as peers in the homebuilding industry. They are the real deal! What stands out to me is how much thought they put into the bigger picture of building — not just the house, but the neighborhood, the streetscape, and the long-term feel of the community. Their work reflects the same things they seem to value as people: care, professionalism, humility, and pride in the craft. As a fellow builder, I have a lot of respect for the way Justen and Eric approach their work. Monmouth and the Willamette Valley are lucky to have Olsen Communities.

I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Eric, Justen, and the team at Olsen Communities through our NAHB group over the past few years, and they’re a first-class operation. They genuinely care about the client experience and have built a process that is transparent, well-structured, and not overwhelming—something that’s incredibly important when building or renovating. You can tell they put a lot of thought into how they guide clients through each step, and it shows in the way they communicate and deliver their projects. Beyond that, they’re a great team to collaborate with—professional, responsive, and committed to doing things the right way. If you’re considering building a custom home or renovating in the Monmouth or Salem area, Olsen Communities should absolutely be on your list.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience building with Olsen Communities! From our very first meeting with Eric and the Eve Olsen, we knew we were in excellent hands. They took the time to walk us through every detail — from choosing the perfect lot to refining our home’s layout and design — ensuring every decision truly reflected how we wanted to live. Justen and his wife were an incredible support throughout the entire contract and selection process. Their professionalism, patience, and positivity never wavered, even when we hit that inevitable “decision fatigue.” They made an otherwise overwhelming process feel exciting and manageable. Cody was another standout — always ensuring that our ideas and design choices were both beautiful and practical. During our many walkthroughs, he took the time to explain everything clearly and thoughtfully, making sure we fully understood the process at every stage. The entire Olsen Communities team went above and beyond to create not just a house, but our dream home. Their dedication, communication, and genuine care for their clients shine through in every detail. We are beyond grateful and couldn’t recommend them more highly!

What a wonderful team! From start to finish, this was all such an enjoyable experience.When we were making our selections and asking for certain finishes, they really heard us. We are so happy with our new home and the neighborhood!!! Thank you Olsen Communities!

We had our dream home built in the Fairview Addition last year, and it was a fantastic experience. The design experience was very personal and incorporated our lifestyles. We did not feel overwhelmed with choices and everything was presented in a very transparent and honest manner so we were never surprised about the cost of anything. Most of all, the follow up now that we are in our home has been great and the response has been quick. We love the neighborhood and the entire process has been incredibly positive and fun. Olsen truly seems to care about every detail and the satisfaction of their clients.
