meet the team
Landmark Homes Taupō is owned by Ethan Christensen and Gerry Schumacher, a local team that cares about building beautiful new homes in Taupō and looking after the people who live in them.
Ethan was born and raised in Taupō, so he knows the region, its landscape and its people well. He’s been one of Landmark Homes’ key contract builders for 13 years, and for more than a decade he’s run his own building business, building Landmark homes across the Taupō district. His craftsmanship has been part of the Landmark Homes story for a long time, so moving into ownership was a natural next step. Away from site, Ethan is a proud dad of three.
Gerry looks after the customer service side of the franchise. He’s an accountant and the former business development manager for Landmark Homes NZ, so he’s an expert on budgeting and planning, and he takes clients through the building process from the design stage onwards.
Whoever bowls into the Taupō office can expect a smile, a happy vibe and a positive experience. Looking for a builder in Taupō? Call Landmark Homes Taupō today.
