Christopherson Homes, Inc.

Keith and Brenda Christopherson are the co-founders and owners of Christopherson Homes, Inc., a highly successful family-owned business with more than 180 employees, a central support office in Santa Rosa and two regional offices and design centers in the North Bay and Sacramento. Since founding the company in 1978, this husband-and-wife team has dedicated themselves to making every Christopherson Homes community a great place to live.

Christopherson Homes has built more than 4,000 homes in nearly 40 communities throughout Northern California. In all, Keith and Brenda are responsible for over one billion dollars of real estate built and sold within the North Bay and Sacramento areas.

High school sweethearts, Keith took a job as an apprentice union carpenter before spending a year in Vietnam. The couple married in 1968 and shortly after moved to the North Bay in search of affordable housing.

As CEO, Keith’s focus was on the homebuilding side, while Brenda, as Executive Vice President and Director of Marketing and Product Design, is renowned for her marketing passion and creativity and has been the driving force in building the company’s much-respected brand.

Entrepreneurs at heart, Keith and Brenda have created and will co-chair the Christopherson Homes Board of Directors, an ideal position from which to effectively contribute to the company and pave the way for its continued growth and development.

Keith and Brenda have played an active role in the HBA of Northern California (HBANC) as well as providing leadership and support to countless non-profit, community, and civic associations. Keith has twice served as HBANC North Bay Region President. Brenda is the recipient of the first Lifetime Achievement for Marketing Excellence for the HBANC. Both are staunch advocates for affordable housing and green building.

​The couple has two children, Andy Christopherson, President, Christopherson Homes, North Bay region, and Amy Christopherson Bolten, Corporate Director of Community Relations.
