David Patterson, born and raised in Forsyth County, is a multi-generational homebuilder with over 15 years of experience building custom and semi-custom homes in Atlanta and on Lake Lanier. During this time, David managed the construction of 100-plus homes for several regional and national home builders in the metro Atlanta area.

In 2015, David co-founded David Patterson Homes, a Forsyth-based homebuilding company dedicated to creating beautiful homes that stand out from other new construction while providing exceptional customer service from beginning to end.

David understands the challenge of entitlement and acquiring land suitable for development. David co-founded Tellus to address this challenge and North Georgia’s growing need for housing. Rather than solely building homes, David wants to have a greater impact in his community by guiding thoughtful development.

David’s deep Forsyth roots and intimate knowledge of the area’s history and culture enable Tellus to bring about meaningful change that is well-received at the municipal level
