Meet the Revent Team
Revent Builds is a team of highly skilled craftsmen who work together seamlessly to bring your vision to life. The members of Revent Builds have grown up together in many ways, and they were brought back together by their shared goals.
John and his wife Melissa met in 8th grade and have been building their lives together ever since. They have been married for 10 years and have 2 girls together, Jane, 9, and Daria, 3. John officially started Revent Builds in 2017. After wearing many different hats and growing the business for a few years, Melissa jumped on board to manage the company finances. With Melissa and John joining forces, Revent Builds gained serious momentum. Built on a high level of trust and mutual respect, the business like their relationship flourished and helped grow Revent Builds into the successful company it is today!
John, Andrew, and Ryan all wrestled together in high school before going their separate ways. However, they found themselves working together again years later. The three developed a high level of trust and camaraderie winning the state championship in 2007 and state runner ups in 2008. They worked as a team then and continue to work as a team now!
Nina is Melissa’s sister and John’s sister in law. They all formed a tight bond growing up together. A bond they all still share working along side each other.
John and Derek met in 2019 when Derek first moved to Austin. Derek began shooting freelance videography for Revent Builds and after a year of working together successfully and becoming close friends Derek joined the team full time.

John Gioffre
Owner/Head of Operations
John never meets a stranger. His innate curiosity and ability to connect have guided his path from studying political science as an undergrad and defensive linemen at Rice University, followed by law school at South Texas College of Law Houston where he connected his passion with his purpose in real estate.
John started GO Investments in Houston, a real estate investment company focused on purchasing distressed properties and rehabbing them to a state where they could be rented or sold. He gained a solid foundation in general contracting and the company went on to own a sizable portfolio of single-family homes and has recently acquired some multifamily assets.
Inspired by the work, John began flipping houses, doing custom projects for clients, and completed his first upscale remodel with Andrew and AJ and they haven’t stopped since 2013.
John got the opportunity to become CEO of a real estate development company in Austin in 2015 where he got exposure to wide-ranging construction projects all over the city. While learning the ins and outs of the City of Austin code and building processes, John invested in relationships with Austin’s finest experts and craftsmen and began building his own team and Revent was born.
Since then Revent Builds has completed hundreds of projects across the full spectrum of construction and renovation and has grown into a multimillion-dollar company. John is truly invigorated by his work and feels beyond grateful that he gets to live out his passion each day.
