On Tuesday, Bellevue, Washington-based Azori, previously known as MN Custom Homes, announced that it is expanding into Arizona with an initial focus on Scottsdale, marking its first move beyond the Pacific Northwest. It is partnering with Scottsdale design firms DesignTank and Grady Olsen Design on its first homes, and a new Scottsdale office will serve as a base for local operations and future development. “We’ve spent more than a decade refining our processes, building homes that prioritize both design and durability. That positioning could influence expectations around after-sale service, warranty support and long-term home performance in Scottsdale’s upper-tier segment, where competition for affluent buyers remains strong. The Azori brand will roll out across all of the company’s platforms, developments and communications effective immediately, according to the PR Newswire release.
