CASS BREWER, FOUNDER LEGACY DCS AND BUILDER, GENERATION 3

Cass Brewer, a born entrepreneur, put several business plans into action while getting his education. He was hired at 13 as a carpenter’s assistant; then, he and a buddy developed a lawn care business during high school. While in college, he initiated a remodeling business, which segued into building apartments before he ever graduated from Texas State University, San Marcos, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Urban and Regional Planning in 1996.

Following graduation, Brewer was hired by C.F. Jordan, Inc., a leading developer of multifamily housing, as a field superintendent where he rapidly advanced to project manager. He followed his Jordan experience with four years as project manager at Southwest Housing. He was a strategic team leader of major multifamily developments in the Austin, San Antonio, Houston and Dallas markets.

By 2004, Brewer joined Centex Destination Properties as Vice President of the Texas Division. There he was instrumental in creating a vision and master plan for a resort that resulted in a number of widely recognized, commercially successful, and critically acclaimed properties. One such project was recognized as the Master Planned Project of the Year, 2007. During this period, Brewer became increasingly committed to the concept of high-quality green building. His LEED certification is in progress, and he is a certified Energy Star Builder.

While making his home in the Jonestown, Texas community developing the above resort, Brewer also made time to serve on the Jonestown City Council as Alderman and Mayor Pro-Tem.


Brewer’s recent projects have won two MAX Awards from the Austin Homebuilders Association. He also designed and built the Bohdi Yoga Studio & Wellness Center in Bee Cave, a fine structure that includes an acclaimed restaurant as well as exceptional fitness facilities.

His leadership is currently instrumental in the design and development of an innovative floating home community on Lake Travis. Through Legacy Development & Construction Services, Brewer continues his commitment to quality and aesthetically pleasing, environmentally sound projects.

 

“I believe that my past experience in working for a Fortune 100 corporation in its development divisions, coupled with my long history of renovations, home building and multifamily-condo construction gives me the dual advantage of not only knowing the most efficient means of completing a project, but also being able to provide thoughtful, personal service that is so often missing in this industry. Standards like these are an important family legacy.

The widely varied experiences I have enjoyed in the building business have also given me the vision and resourcefulness to help my clients with innovative design solutions, as well as the perseverance to see projects through, past the toughest challenges. More important, I pride myself on the satisfaction of the client. In the end, your dream is the catalyst, and getting the project started and built to perfection is my job.”
