As a home owner, how can I believe the promises made by the employees of Elkow Homes?
Rick Elkow was born and raised in the South Lyon area. He has a vested interest in the community and part of that vested interest is building quality homes that he can be proud of as well as the home owner. Rick grew up in a “farm” family and began working when he was 9 around the farm.
