The Jones Company Ranked Among Nation’s Fastest Growing

Franklin, TN, May 07, 2009 --(PR.com)-- At a time when large, publicly traded home builders have been suffering from bankruptcies and undergoing mergers to stay afloat, The Jones Company, a local, privately held builder, held it’s own and actually moved up in the rankings in the “Professional Builder Housing Giants Report”.

Professional Builder ranked America’s 350 largest home builders, and compared the numbers from 2008 to 2009. The Jones Company actually moved up a total of 16 spots, from #143 in 2008 to #127 in 2009.

“While I take nothing for granted in this type of housing environment, I think it is very telling that a locally owned company that has built it’s reputation on value is holding strong,” said Richard Chapman, president and partner of The Jones Company. “As an 80 year old company, we have had a long term focus on one thing, which is to take care of our customers and do everything we can to provide them with lasting value that we build into every one of our homes. I believe this strategy will see us through nearly any housing market.”

The Jones Company has built nearly 3000 homes in Middle Tennessee since 1995. They are a local, privately held company based in Franklin, TN. For more information on The Jones Company, visit the company’s website at www.LiveJones.com or call (615)771-8006.
