The family behind CEW Legacy Homes
Serving Palestine & East Texas

The Story behind
CEW Legacy Homes…

Decades ago, our dad, Carl, fell in love with homes. He spent years running his own business selling used mobile homes, then turned his focus to owning rental properties across Anderson County — always seeing potential where others saw just another old house.

When Carl passed away in 2020, our family made a decision: we weren't ready to let what he built end with him.

Today, CEW Legacy Homes is run by Carl's wife, Sue, his son, Mike, his daughter, Holly, and his son-in-law, Chad. The same way Carl left a legacy for us, we hope to carry on the legacy of every home we touch.


What We Stand For

Owner-operated

When you reach out to CEW Legacy Homes, you reach us — not a call center or a property manager. Every project is personal.

Local roots

We live and work in the same communities we renovate. Palestine and East Texas are not just a market to us — they are home.

Quality over speed

We renovate homes the right way. That means taking time to do the work correctly, using quality materials, and not cutting corners to get to the next deal.

Transparent process

From the first walkthrough to the final coat of paint, we keep the work visible — clear updates, honest timelines, and no surprises along the way.
