#1 to #25 are shown in full above. Here are #26 to #50, in CR Score order; each links to its profile. We publish the top 50 of 79 ranked home builders here; the rest are on their profiles.
20 more home builders within 40 mi that we can't rank yet: too few reviews, or a trade we couldn't confirm. Listed A to Z.
We scored 79 Hollister home builders on ten factors, weighted as shown. A business is ranked when its trade is confirmed and it has 3 or more Google reviews or a claimed profile. A business with no Google reviews scores zero on rating, review volume and recency. Other unknown factors are left out, not counted as zero. Scores last refreshed October 22, 2026.
Paid placement never changes a rank or score. Featured businesses are paid, labelled, limited to 3 and shown above the ranking, outside it.
