Build a Custom Home with Ally Bohanan Real Estate
Your Dream Home, Designed and Built Around You
Sometimes the perfect home isn’t on the market — it’s one you create. At Ally Bohanan Real Estate, we make custom home building simple, strategic, and rewarding. In partnership with Bohanan Construction, Ally guides clients through every stage of the process, from securing land to handing over the keys.
With deep experience in both real estate and residential construction, Ally brings a rare perspective that helps homeowners avoid costly mistakes, streamline the build, and ensure the finished product matches both vision and budget.
Why Build a Custom
Home with Ally?
Real Estate + Construction Expertise
Most Realtors can help you buy or sell — but few understand the building process inside and out. Ally’s background as co-owner of Bohanan Construction means she’s uniquely equipped to bridge the gap between buyer, builder, and future homeowner.
Start with the Right Lot
Location is everything. Ally helps clients identify and purchase the perfect land for their build, whether it’s a spacious lot in Gastonia, a quiet corner in Kings Mountain, or a desirable new development in Belmont.
Tailored Design & Build
Your home should reflect your lifestyle. Through Bohanan Construction, you’ll work with professionals to design a layout, select finishes, and build a home that aligns with your needs — whether that means open-concept living, a chef’s kitchen, or outdoor entertaining space.
Guided Every Step of the Way
Custom builds can feel overwhelming, but Ally provides clear communication, expert oversight, and hands-on involvement from planning to final walkthrough. She ensures timelines stay on track, budgets stay in check, and no detail is overlooked.

Cameron JonesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Ally Bohanan was the best decision we made in our home-buying journey. She’s knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about her clients. Whether it was finding listings before they hit the market or negotiating on our behalf, Ally went above and beyond at every turn. She made the process smooth, stress-free, and even enjoyable. If you’re buying or selling a home in North Carolina, you need Ally in your corner. Highly recommend! Summer MitchemTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've used Ally for 3 transactions now. Selling two properties and buying one. I could not have asked for a smoother transition for them all. Buying/ selling is so stressful and there are so many moving parts, but Ally, Jessica and their team truly made everything easy and my husband and I didn't stress at all. We plan to use her for all of our future properties. Please do yourself a favor, and have a conversation with her before choosing any other real estate team. You will NOT be disappointed! ???????? Michael WoodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I had a fairly lengthy discussion over how we would describe our experience with Ally and Jessi. We settled on the number one thing that sets them apart from other agents: they're not just real estate agents, they're *lifestyle* agents. We were moving to the area from over 1,000 miles away and had little idea of what we were getting ourselves into. On the first of three trips to NC, we met with Ally and Jessi to discuss ideas. They were immediately invested in not just finding the right home, but finding the right lifestyle. They were so inquisitive to figure out what we wanted and how we wanted it. From that point on we felt like we were their only clients. It's clear they work seriously hard and as I mentioned to my wife when we got on the airplane after first meeting them: "Those ladies accept nothing less than perfection." Turns out we were right. Not only finding and buying our home, they also helped with finding good restaurants, dental and healthcare, hair stylists, even a good gym and a spa. Above and beyond is the correct way to describe it, but it doesn't feel like enough. It feels like the way someone treats an old friend. Janay YarbroughTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Always updating and trying to make the process smoother for her clients! Recommend 100% Don't waste time with anyone else, if you want honesty and real effort Ally is your person ! Matthew GehretTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used 2 realtors before Ally and will only use Ally for here on out. Her professionalism, attention to detail and timely manner has won her our forever business! We had our house on the market for almost a year before using Ally and she had it under contract in less than a month. Who you hire matters and she is the real deal! Chelsea CampbellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The idea of selling my home was so stressful! Ally and her team made it sooo easy! The staging was amazing and made my home look so inviting! The amount of work her and her team put into the staging and the open house truly was above and beyond. She took the stress off my shoulders and truly made it a great experience. I’d definitely recommend using her if you’re looking to sell your home. She kept me and my husband updated every step of the way and laid out everything we needed to do! So happy to have met her! Reach out to her if you’re looking to sell—you won’t regret it. Kathryn BlatchfordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ally is one of a kind. She stepped us through the entire process of selling our home, and made us feel comfortable and confident in our desions. She also went out of her way to help us through buying our new home. She is a wonderful interior designer, and stagged our home beautifully! We are so thankful for her kind heart, work ethic, and values. She puts 110% into her clients and I would highly recommend her! Ashlynn MendozaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ally Bohanan is amazing! She went above and beyond to help us sell our house. She has an amazing eye for staging and marketing, leading to a bidding war and competitive offers in less than 72 hours. We highly recommend Ally Bohanan Real Estate! Amanda YoungTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have bought a sold several houses but this was by far the best experience I’ve ever had. The staging! Wow! Ally & her team made me fall in love with my home again. It was bitter sweet selling and they were by my side through the entire ride! Thank you so much for your help and support!
