Meet Joe Nothum
Owner & Builder

Joe Nothum grew up in a family of builders, developing a passion for construction while working summers on job sites with his father from the age of 11. That early hands-on experience led him to study Construction Management at John Brown University, where he gained both technical and leadership skills — and met his wife, Jessica.

After college, Joe worked as a superintendent for a custom builder focused on modern, energy-efficient homes. Today, he leads Nothum Group with a deep commitment to craftsmanship, clear communication, and delivering a smooth client experience.

Joe lives in the Branson area with Jessica and their daughters, Becca, Jolie and Isla. Outside of work, he enjoys time outdoors, hunting, and the occasional sports outing.

About Nothum

Our Values

At Nothum Group, we believe a home is more than just walls and a roof — it’s the backdrop for a lifetime of memories.

That’s why our mission is twofold: deliver an enjoyable building experience and create a custom home you’ll be proud of for decades to come. From the first sketch to the final walkthrough, we approach each project with integrity, care, and a relentless attention to detail.

What We Do

Based in the Table Rock Lake area, Nothum Group specializes in custom lake homes. As a general contractor, we take pride in tackling complex designs, exploring new materials, and pushing creative boundaries.

Our team brings extensive experience in modern, contemporary, and energy-efficient construction — ensuring every home we build is as high-performing as it is beautiful.
