12 West Custom Homes and Remodeling
A walkthrough of 12 West custom homes and renovations across the Phoenix Valley, and of Desert Haven, where Nick Collier led construction as partner and superintendent before founding 12 West

Custom Homes Built For How You Actually Live

Led by Nick Collier, partner and superintendent on Desert Haven, published in Luxe Interiors + Design and Phoenix Home & Garden. Both owners on every home, from first drawing to final punch list. Projects from $1M across Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, and Arcadia.

Custom estates, ground up. Selective renovations worth the work.

We build a small number of custom estates each year so both owners are on every one. When a renovation or outdoor living project deserves that same level of oversight, we take it. Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, and Arcadia.

In Nick's own words

When you hire 12 West, you get both owners on your home. Not an account manager. Not a rotating project coordinator. Here is why it works that way.

You get both owners on every buildNick on why both owners stay on every home, from first drawing to final punch list.

Built with discretion

Our clients build with us because their homes and their privacy matter. We do not publish client names, addresses, or reviews without permission. References from past clients are available personally, on request, when you contact us.

Built together from the first drawing.

The architect, the designer, and the builder belong in the same conversation before decisions become expensive.

We get in early, with your architect and designer, before decisions get expensive.

We build the budget around how you live, not a square footage average.

Our superintendents run the day to day. Nick is on site multiple times a week regardless.

The trades on your home are people we have worked with for years, not the lowest bid.

Both owners. Every project.

Nick and Christina Collier, the two owners of 12 West Custom Homes

Nick Collier

In 2003 Nick was the warranty punch guy on a custom home site. The superintendent quit mid project, so he started calling trades himself, because the house still had to get finished. The owner of the company showed up, saw what he was doing, and made him a superintendent that day.

Nobody ever trained him. He learned it in real time, asking a lot of questions.

Christina Collier

Christina spent eighteen years in medicine. Running operations for a custom home builder turned out to be the same job in a different building.

She runs HR, insurance, billing, and financial administration, plus regular field walks to check progress, quality, and coordination. Her role is the bridge between office and field.

Twenty plus years later, Nick and Christina run 12 West together. When you hire 12 West, you get both owners. Not an account manager. Not a rotating project coordinator.

Let's talk about your home.

We keep our project volume low on purpose, so both owners stay close to every home we build.
