Mungo Homes Opens $10 Million Headquarters in Irmo, Signaling Growth and Commitment to Community

Exciting Developments in Irmo: Mungo Homes Unveils Its New Headquarters

In the heart of Irmo, South Carolina, a wave of fresh energy is ushering in a new era for Mungo Homes. This Midlands-based homebuilding giant has just completed construction on its impressive $10 million headquarters, a significant leap forward in the company’s journey since it began building homes in Columbia way back in 1954. The new building, sprawling over 20,250 square feet, is designed with modern innovation at its core and is set right next to the former headquarters, which is currently undergoing extensive renovations and is expected to be ready by late spring 2025.

A Vision Realized

CEO Steven Mungo expressed just how excited the team is about this new space. “We are thrilled to provide our Team with a new, modern working environment with every detail thoughtfully considered,” Mungo shared. Employees have already started to settle in, enjoying the thoughtfully designed spaces that encourage collaboration and community.

The new headquarters is a place where the team can not only work but also come together over lunch or brainstorming sessions. “It’s been a joy to watch everyone settle in so quickly and enjoy gathering in spaces we envisioned for folks to collaborate and just enjoy lunch together,” he added.

Looking to the Future

This new facility isn’t just about aesthetics; it symbolizes growth and commitment. Mungo Homes has created an environment that reflects the company’s longstanding presence in the community and its future ambitions. The company aims to fill about 40 new jobs, fulfilling the requirements to receive Job Development credits alongside a State of South Carolina grant. This will undoubtedly bolster the local economy and enhance job opportunities in Irmo.

A Family Legacy

The Mungo family has deep roots in the South, having built homes not just in Columbia but across ten different markets in South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia. Despite being part of the Berkshire-Hathaway family of companies since 2018, Mungo Homes remains proudly family-run. In 2023 alone, the company managed to sell over 3,800 homes and generate a revenue topping $1.4 billion.

Looking ahead, Mungo Homes has exciting plans in store, including a new focus on expanding vertically in the Charlotte market late in 2024. This expansion highlights the company’s ambition and adaptability in an ever-changing real estate landscape.

The Campus Transformation

While the new headquarters is finished, it’s just the beginning. The adjacent former headquarters is undergoing substantial renovations, scheduled to be completed by the end of the first quarter in 2025. This transformation will further create a cohesive campus that embodies Mungo Homes’ dedication to innovation and community. The entire project reflects a long-term vision of growth, collaboration, and commitment to both employees and the local community.

Community Commitment

Mungo Homes’ expansion efforts are not just about building houses; they prioritize enhancing lives. They focus on creating homes that foster community, which is reflected in their commitment to building spaces where families can thrive. With every new development and renovation, Mungo Homes demonstrates its dedication to improving the fabric of the community.

As we celebrate Mungo Homes’ exciting journey, it’s clear that this new chapter in Irmo marks not just a physical location but a commitment to fostering an inclusive, forward-thinking workspace that benefits everyone involved. The future looks bright for Mungo Homes, and the community can only benefit from their ongoing contributions and investments.
