History of Elliott Homes
A Marietta Institution Since 1980
Building a residence takes time, but not nearly as long as constructing a solid reputation. Elliott Homes has been slowly creating our reputation over the last 40 years—brick-by-brick, and one happy family at a time.
About Our Founder: John J. Elliott, Jr.
Before founding Elliott Homes, John started his career in banking in 1971. As the District Vice President at the Cobb Federal Savings and Loan, John worked with several builders and developers to secure financing for construction projects. With this experience in construction, he began shifting his focus away from finance and toward residential development.
