Transforming Visions into Homes: Oliver Builders
Our Grandfather Bill Oliver the 15th was a Highly Decorated Marine Raider during WWII. He fought in Iwo Jima, and many other battles in the South Pacific. In the summer of 1944, he was injured when a tank round hit the Jeep he was in. He left the battle with near-fatal facial wounds. He earned a Purple Heart and spent the next 90 days in a coma. After a year of rehabilitation, he started back to work as a Farmer & Residential Framer.
As time progressed he increased his capabilities to include the Foundation. he then realized that he could oversee the entire home build so in the early 1960’s he founded Oliver Builders a Custom Home home-building business near Greers Ferry Lake in North Central Arkansas. He was a Hands-on Builder and went from a Hard Charging Contractor to a successful business Man.
Our Father Bill Oliver the 16th was also Highly decorated having served in the Navy as a SeaBee with 4 tours of Vietnam. He spent 17 years in the Navy specializing in Diving Demolition and switched to the Air Force for 17 years as a metal fabricator. Growing up Dad earned extra Income Working on anything Mechanical and learned how to Flip houses. Keep in mind this is prior to HGTV. As kids, we learn many skills. What we saw as endless chores taught us a hard work ethic and was a primer course for us to gain insight on how to fix anything in a Residential Home.
Fast Forward a few years and Bill graduated from Arkansas Tech & Casey from Arkansas State both with Degrees in Biology. Bill & Casey have each worked in Sales, Oil & Gas Services & Distribution, Real Estate, and Flipping houses. In the last 7 years, we have sold or designed over 500 homes in Northwest Arkansas and the River Valley.
In 2020 Bill and Casey started working together & re-established Oliver Builders. What we know about Home ownership & Investment is that It’s Better To Build!
