About this episode
Show Notes: Discover what makes an “heirloom home” different from an estate or traditional build — and why more families are choosing to create homes intended to be passed down through generations. Steve Tuma from Landmark Home and Land Company shares real, touching stories of clients who’ve built homes centered on legacy, functionality, family gatherings, and deeply personal values.
