BETTENDORF, Iowa – January 27, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
Youssi Custom Homes of Iowa has expanded its residential offerings at Forest Grove Crossing in Bettendorf, introducing new ranch-style villas and condominium configurations to address sustained housing demand in the Pleasant Valley School District. The expansion includes enhanced digital tools featuring interactive walkthrough videos that allow prospective buyers to explore properties remotely.
The development responds to ongoing housing shortages in the Pleasant Valley School District, recently recognized as Iowa’s top school district according to MSN. The new ranch villas and condominiums start in the low $200,000 range, providing multiple configurations designed to meet diverse buyer needs in the Quad Cities area.
“The demand for quality housing in the Pleasant Valley School District continues to exceed available inventory,” said Shane Youssi, President of Youssi Custom Homes of Iowa. “Our expansion at Forest Grove Crossing addresses this need while incorporating technology that makes the home-buying process more accessible for busy families. The interactive walkthrough videos on our website allow interested buyers to explore floor plans and features from any location before scheduling in-person visits.”
This article highlights how the company has introduced new digital capabilities alongside its physical expansion. The interactive walkthrough technology represents a shift in how residential developers engage with prospective buyers, particularly those relocating to the area or unable to visit properties during traditional viewing hours.
The Forest Grove Crossing development features ranch-style villas with 1,446 square feet of living space and full unfinished basements. Each villa includes craftsman exterior styling with cedar brackets, luxury vinyl plank flooring, Cambria quartz countertops, nine-foot ceilings, and GE stainless steel appliances. The condominium options range from 1,313-square-foot two-bedroom units to 1,565-square-foot three-bedroom configurations.
The expansion comes as the Quad Cities region, comprising Davenport, Bettendorf, Rock Island, and Moline, experiences continued residential growth. The Forest Grove Crossing location sits 1.5 miles west of BettPlex on Forest Grove Road, positioning residents within the boundaries of the Pleasant Valley School District.
This news article demonstrates the company’s response to market conditions through both traditional construction and modern marketing approaches. The combination of new inventory and digital tools addresses two primary challenges facing homebuyers: limited housing availability and the need for flexible viewing options.
