Exterior, 170 5th Avenue
Charleston Area Home Builder · Since 2020

New homes, built right
and built on schedule.

Velocity Construction specializes in ground-up residential construction for investors, select homeowners and our own high-end spec homes, with select high-end renovation and addition work.

Who We Build For

Investors trust us to deliver. So do we, with our own homes.

Velocity builds mostly for investor clients, with select projects for homeowners. Our job is simple to say and hard to do: help investors build projects on time and on budget, without surprises.

We put our own capital behind the same work. Our high-end spec homes, from 170 5th Avenue to 845 Kincade Drive in the Old Village, are built by the same team and to the same standard as every client project.

Investor Builds

Investor Builds

Most of our work is ground-up construction for investor clients. We price it tightly, schedule it honestly and report as we go, so the house is delivered on time and on budget.

High-End Spec Homes

High-End Spec Homes

We also develop and build our own luxury homes in Mount Pleasant, like 170 5th Avenue. Building them for ourselves holds every project to the standard we would want to own.

Select Custom Homes

Select Custom Homes

We take on a limited number of homes for owners, with the same planning, cost control and finish quality we bring to our own builds.

Featured Project

170 5th Avenue

Mount Pleasant, SC · 4,760 SF · 5 Bed · 5.5 Bath

A ground-up luxury residence with marsh views, steps from Remley's Point and minutes from downtown Charleston. We developed and built it ourselves: a two-story modern farmhouse in board-and-batten and lap siding under a standing-seam metal roof, with a double-height steel-framed window wall, a white oak and marble kitchen, and a pool court framed by covered and screened porches. Completed and sold in 2026.

High-end renovations & additions

New construction is our focus, but we take on a small number of high-end renovations and additions where we can do our best work: a whole-home or condominium renovation, a primary-suite or second-story addition, a garage apartment, or a new kitchen and living wing that ties seamlessly into the original house.

We bring the same discipline as our ground-up builds: a detailed scope and budget up front, careful protection of the existing home, structural and code work done right, and finishes that match or improve on what is already there.
