As the economy improved, Wausau Homes changed its business model to include only protected builder territories across the Midwest Region.

Wausau Homes eliminated prefabricated and manufactured homes from its product offering and now focuses solely on panelized or component homes.

Walls and trusses are constructed within the factory headquarters and all other new home features are constructed on-site.

Marv Schuette and Wausau Homes have always been a strong supporter of programs that not only benefit youth but improve housing in general.

His ability to see a need and devise a solution through innovative measures contributed greatly to a variety of areas, such as the United Way, the Community Foundation of North Central Wisconsin, the Habitat for Humanity, the Mead Wildlife Center, Northcentral Technical College[1] , Junior Achievement of Wisconsin, Boy Scouts of America, and Girl Scouts of the USA.
