April 24, 2025

On today's episode of the Beyond the Front Door podcast, hosts Lindee and Rhea from Peak Properties delve deeper into the critical topic of affordable housing and construction in Cheyenne, Wyoming. This episode marks an exciting continuation of our partnership with the Southeast Wyoming Builders Association, featuring special guest Eric Adams from Gateway Construction, who brings nearly two decades of experience in the industry. 


Join us as we discuss the ins and outs of the building process, starting with the pivotal financial considerations before breaking ground. Eric shares insights on planning, decision-making, and the unique challenges Wyoming faces, including a significant lag in construction that leaves us five years behind on the homes we need. Learn about Gateway's approach to custom homes, with a spotlight on their Sweet Grass subdivision, and discover the various inspections that occur throughout the building journey.


We also explore the balance between public safety and the complexities of building multiple homes simultaneously, alongside an overview of the typical 6 to 8-month timeframe for construction. Whether you're a potential homeowner, builder, or simply interested in the housing landscape of Wyoming, this episode offers valuable insights into the affordable housing crisis and the construction process.
