Who We Are
Jon Lipovac has been building high-quality homes in the greater Des Moines area since 2002. Together with his wife, Amy Lipovac, both licensed Realtors, they created Trinity Homes as a complete, all-in-one resource for anyone interested in new construction.
Our goal is simple: to be the most knowledgeable, trusted, and caring resource for new construction in Central Iowa.
We specialize in helping move-up buyers and empty nesters navigate life’s next chapter. We understand the transitions that come with it—and we’re here to make sure your next home reflects exactly where you want to be.
Beyond building, we’re also experienced Realtors providing full buying and selling services. Whether you’re purchasing your next home, selling your current one, or doing both, we guide you through every step with clarity and confidence.

Over 20 years building homes in central Iowa we know new construction inside and out.

As a husband and wife team, we treat every client like family and pour that care into every home.

Two licensed Realtors who are also experienced builders — a combination you won't find anywhere else.

We're proud members of the Waukee community, invested in its growth and the families who call it home.
Choose your floor plan, finishes, fixtures, and more. A new construction home is built around your lifestyle not someone else's.
New homes come with structural and component warranties, giving you peace of mind that older resale homes simply can't offer.

New roof, new HVAC, new appliances, new everything. No deferred maintenance or hidden surprises lurking behind the walls.
Quality new construction, especially in growing markets like Waukee, tends to hold value exceptionally well over time.

"Jon was absolutely invaluable when we built our custom home. His background as a builder meant he caught things during construction that we never would have noticed. We felt truly protected."

"As empty nesters, we wanted to downsize into a beautiful new home without the stress. Trinity Homes made the entire experience seamless. They knew every detail and answered every question we had."

"We were buying with another builder and a friend recommended we use Jon as our Realtor. Best decision we made. He reviewed our contract and negotiated upgrades we didn't even know to ask for."

"From lot selection to final walkthrough, Jon and his wife held our hand through every step. The quality of our home is exceptional and we couldn't be happier. Trinity Homes is the real deal."

"We looked at resale homes for months before a friend told us to call Trinity Homes. Within weeks we were under contract on a spec home that checked every single box. We wish we'd called sooner!"

"The expertise Jon brings as both a builder and a Realtor is truly unique. He knew exactly what to look for during our walkthrough and made sure the builder addressed every item. Highly recommend."
