ADAMS TWP. — Jodi Brennan’s favorite moment in the homebuilding process comes about a year after a buyer’s first visit: moving day.
“They’re so proud to be moving into the house that they created,” said Brennan, sales and marketing manager for Infinity Custom Homes. “We let them create their house.”
Brennan is part of the sales team along with Scott Blodgett, owner, who sells the company’s homes and helps introduce buyers to its approach to building. Customers begin by touring model homes and choosing a floor plan that suits them. From there, they can customize the layout and select the details that make the home their own.
Infinity owner Scott Blodgett started the company 13 years ago with the idea that buyers could customize a home while still being able to walk through a model and picture the finished space, Brennan said.
This year, the Pittsburgh Business Times ranked Infinity first in the large-company category of its 2026 Best Places to Work awards. Brennan said the recognition means a great deal because it reflects the people behind the homes. www.bizjournals.com
“They’re the reason why we build beautiful houses,” she said. “It is definitely a testament to the people who work here.”
“We are semi-custom in the sense that we start with floor plans,” Brennan said. “We try to make it simple for people to look at all of our floor plans and choose one, and then we can customize from there.”
Those choices can go well beyond cabinets and flooring. Brennan said the company’s Austin model includes a home gym, sauna, cold plunge, swimming pool and room for musicians to gather. The models give buyers a chance to see possibilities before deciding what belongs in their own homes.
A selection & construction manager guides each customer through decisions ranging from the home’s structure to its smaller finishes. Infinity also has a design gallery where buyers can make all of those selections in one place.
“Everyone’s busy and building a home takes a lot of steps,” Brennan said. “We try to do it where it’s all in one place and convenient for the customer.”
Brennan works alongside her husband, Liam, who oversees the company’s day-to-day operations. He had worked in the building industry for more than 20 years when she joined
Infinity; Brennan said she has now spent about 10 years in the business. The two still learn from each other, she said, even when the work becomes stressful.
They also know the Mars area as residents. When they were starting a family, the Brennans wanted a community with good schools and a family-oriented feel. They built a home off Myoma Road and later built an Infinity home which they currently reside in.
Now the company is developing two more communities in the Mars area: single-family homes at Rightmeyer Estates and a planned townhome community and single family at Quincy Heights. Brennan said buyers have responded to the single-family homes, while the company expects to introduce the Quincy Heights townhomes in the coming months.
Townhomes have become another way for Infinity to offer buyers choices. Brennan said some can be customized with features such as an elevator, giving customers who want lower-maintenance living options for how the space will work for them.
For Brennan, the result extends beyond an individual house. She enjoys seeing neighbors gather for picnics and other activities in communities the company has built.
“It’s fun to see the communities we create,” she said, “and see people driving through, and they’re making memories together.”
But the part of her job that stays with her most is still moving day: seeing a family walk into a home shaped by the choices they made along the way.
