Why the Carpenters Union Is Investing in You

Nearly every aspect of a McKelvey home is built by highly skilled union laborers from the Mid-America Carpenters Regional Council (MACRC). The Carpenters Union takes immense pride in building our homes, and we take equal pride in their exceptional craftsmanship. With more than 53,000 members across Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, and Eastern Iowa, MACRC is deeply committed to building strong communities and supporting the families who live in them. Their decision to fund buyers with up to $10,000 is a direct reflection of that mission—helping families step into high-quality, union-built homes while also investing in the neighborhoods they help create. It’s a partnership built on trust, skill, and a shared belief in the value of lasting quality.
