BETTENDORF, IA – November 19, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
Youssi Custom Homes of Iowa has expanded its Forest Grove Crossing development to include additional condominium and ranch villa configurations, responding to sustained demand for quality housing within the Pleasant Valley School District. The expansion introduces new floor plans and features designed to accommodate diverse buyer preferences while maintaining affordability with pricing starting in the low $200,000 range.
The development expansion comes as the Pleasant Valley School District recently earned recognition from MSN as Iowa’s top-rated school district, driving increased interest in residential properties within the district boundaries. Forest Grove Crossing, located in Bettendorf within the Quad Cities region, now offers both condominium and ranch-style villa options incorporating premium features typically associated with higher price points.
“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 by providing attainable options that don’t compromise on craftsmanship or amenities.”

The development features two distinct housing types designed to meet varied lifestyle needs. Condominiums are available in 1,313-square-foot two-bedroom configurations and 1,565-square-foot three-bedroom layouts. Ranch-style villas offer 1,446 square feet of living space with full unfinished basements for future expansion. Both housing types include attached two-car garages and craftsman-style exteriors featuring cedar brackets and corbels.
Each residence at Forest Grove Crossing incorporates premium finishes, including nine-foot ceilings, luxury vinyl plank flooring, Cambria quartz countertops manufactured in Minnesota, and GE stainless steel kitchen appliances. Additional features include high-efficiency gas fireplaces, energy-efficient heating systems with 90-plus efficiency ratings, and oversized trim packages throughout.
