Austin, TX – July 1, 2024 – InstaBuilt, a pioneering force in modern construction technology, announces its official launch in the United States in Austin’s Whisper Valley with Cherry Communities, comprised of three new product lines: Cherry Traditional, Cherry Millennials and Cherry Multifamily. Known for its eco-friendly and rapid construction solutions in Europe and the U.S., InstaBuilt is set to revolutionize the American housing market with panelized and volumetric housing that is up to 95 percent manufactured off-site and assembled on-site in 8 to 12 hours.

Whisper Valley’s focus on green living, powered by Taurus Investments Holdings and EcoSmart Solution, aligns perfectly with our vision.”

The homes feature two groundbreaking technologies: panelized systems with volumetric bath pods and complete volumetric housing solutions. The cutting-edge construction process utilizes advanced prefabrication techniques with minimal environmental impact to expedite the building process, lower costs and significantly reduce on-site waste, making the approach both efficient and environmentally friendly. InstaBuilt is the only builder that is certified and building with CE mark in Europe and the US market, holding certifications under the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Residential Code (IRC). Additionally, all products comply with the Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS), powered by ICC – NTA.

Together, we are addressing the housing crisis and setting a new standard for the future of residential development.”

These homes range in size from 2,000 to 2,900 square feet with spacious three- and four-bedroom homes available in one-story and two-story models, perfect for growing families.

In 18 months, InstaBuilt will be presenting the first 150 Cherry Millennials AsterDomo homes in a separate community within Whisper Valley, designed for modern, dynamic lifestyles offering one- to four-bedroom homes ranging from 665 to 1,307 square feet.

In addition, the homes feature net-zero to energy-positive options and smart home features that reduce energy consumption and promote a sustainable lifestyle without compromising on convenience or comfort.

Residents in Cherry Communities will enjoy a vibrant ecosystem designed to promote a holistic lifestyle with a host of both indoor and outdoor amenities, including fitness centers, yoga studios and cantina services.
