Looking ahead, Ryan has no ambitions to grow the company beyond its current scale of $20-to25 million in annual turnover. His focus is squarely on refining operations, improving the customer journey, and making life better for both his staff and clients. “I don’t need any more money than I make now,” he says. “Why make it bigger? More risk. Pigs get slaughtered—I don’t want to be that pig.” No matter what size the company grows to, Ryan stresses that the core of Stannard Family Homes will remain the same, and the company will always be focused on transparency. From the very start of the process, they will always be dedicated to making sure clients know where they stand. “We don’t try to lock people in,” Ryan says. “If they want to leave, they can leave. But they don’t. Because by the time we’ve worked with them on the design and planning, moving forward with us becomes a formality.” AUGUST 2025
