Director of Finance

About Hubble Homes:

Founded in 1997, Hubble Homes has been proudly building homes of exceptional quality, craftsmanship and value for over 25 years.

From its first humble beginnings, Hubble Homes has constructed and delivered over 7,000 value-rich homes throughout the Treasure Valley. Our success is owed first to the founding belief that families and individuals should be able to easily find a new home of exceptional beauty and quality at a price that they can afford.

No one else does this better than Hubble Homes. We deliver on this commitment thanks to decades of experience in multiple disciplines that include careful planning and research, smart engineering, resourcefulness, superior design and architecture, strategic partnerships, and superior homebuilding knowledge. By streamlining the homebuilding process, we eliminate inefficiencies and pass the savings to our customers and create true value without cutting corners.

We are always working to help make the neighborhoods, communities and surrounding areas we serve and call home, places of compassion and prosperity. Since its inception in 1997, Hubble Homes has contributed over $3 million in donations to local charities and non-profits through our Heart of Hubble program.

Hubble Homes is now a part of the Woodside Homes family.

Since 1977, the Woodside Homes name has been synonymous with integrity, excellence, and design innovation. As one of America's top 30 homebuilders, we are committed to providing the knowledge, experience and processes that encourage our customers to realize their ideal lifestyle.

Now, Woodside has found its own place to call home as part of Sekisui House.
