Penny Stafford

President

 penny@landondevelopment.com
 615-730-9864

As the Company President, Penny Stafford is deeply involved in leading the Landon Development team. From setting the direction of the business to working directly with clients, Penny leverages her leadership, development, sustainable practice, and design skills to ensure every Landon Development home is the irrefutable crown jewel of its respective neighborhood.

Working from a deep knowledge base in land assessment and knowing how to develop parcels in the most aesthetic, ethical way, Penny manages land acquisition, home design, and landscape. Penny also oversees marketing, transactions, and sales. She works directly with Landon Development Owner Jimmie Johnson to position their team as the leader in Nashville custom homes.

With a background as distinct as the homes she builds, Penny draws on 25 years of leadership positions in corporate America. There she honed her abilities in business process improvement, sales, marketing, training, development, and startup. From seeding new business locations to facilitating effective turn arounds, Penny knows how to get a project done to the satisfaction of all parties involved.

Putting Landon Development on the Map as Nashville's Most Exclusive Custom Builder

Penny puts Landon Development on the map by 'committing to different.' Landon Development never reuses floor plans or designs, and every home is unique. Starting from the ground up, Penny ensures plans are specific to the lot, seeking to work with the lot rather than alter natural contours or arboreal beauty.

Beyond providing truly unique homes to clients, Penny also manages the quality side of development, ensuring perfectionism as the leading hallmark in every home's design. Penny makes certain Landon Development homes embody the company's mission of 'transitional home design with a nod to the contemporary;' a style that combines aesthetic elements with modern amenities.

Finally, Penny makes the selection, purchase, design, and build process fun for clients. Buying a custom home is a major life moment and should be a great experience. Landon Development provides clients with three main offerings: pre-sold spec homes, custom home design-and-build, and high-end renovations. No matter which offering clients choose, Penny is there every step of the way to ensure the experience is a memorable one.

 615-730-9864

Introducing our Sr. Project Manager, Yohana Asgedom!!

As Senior Project Manager, Yohana has his finger on the pulse of every project carried out by Landon Development. In addition to managing his own builds, Yohana supervises each of the company's Project Managers, ensuring they have the tools, resources, and expertise needed to run their projects smoothly. Yohana also performs an array of design work for Landon, building on his background in architecture to create custom plans for projects like 6620 Jocelyn Hollow, 259 Vaughn's Gap, and 6319 East Valley.

Drawing from a Lifetime in Construction and Design

Yohana grew up helping his father, also a builder, on residential and commercial projects in Ethiopia and Eritrea, in East Africa. Fleeing conflict as a refugee and seeking a better life in the U.S., Yohana came to Nashville via the United Nations Refugee Resettlement Program in 2011. Once settled in Music City, Yohana sought to expand his knowledge of architecture by first obtaining his Associate's Degree in architecture at Nashville State; then his Bachelor's in Construction Management at MTSU.

From 2013 to 2018, Yohana plied his knowledge of custom architecture for Peggy Newman Designs. Then Yohana began an internship with Landon Development in the summer of 2018, and he's been with the company ever since. His diverse background, worldly knowledge, and deep understanding of the building process are all invaluable traits to the Landon Development team.

Contributing to Maximum Client Satisfaction with Nashville's Leading Custom Home Builder

Even with over a decade of experience in custom residential architecture and construction, Yohana believes the key to his ability to service Landon's clients is his willingness to ask questions, learn something new every day, and always improve efficiency. Mentoring under Landon Development Owner Jimmie Johnson, Yohana expands his skills, looks for areas where improvements can be made, and communicates with clients daily to ensure their home-building process is pleasant, rewarding, and life-changing.

Yohana believes Landon Development sets itself apart from the competition by taking immense pride in its homes. Now the industry leader in Middle Tennessee, Landon Development sets the bar for all other construction enterprises. Yohana is committed to doing his part to ensure that the company's home quality, build efficiency, timelines, and customer satisfaction are the best in the business.
