STEPS INVOLVED IN BUILDING YOUR NEW CUSTOM HOME

Getting Started | Typical Time: 1-2 Days

The first meeting with you contractor includes a discussion about the type of home, details about the land, and, of course: the budget. If you don't have a selected floor plan, your contractor can provide a custom home plan design to best match your lifestyle and the features you desire.

If you need financing, your Contractor can provide you a "rough" cost estimate of the total project which includes land, the cost of site development, and the home. With this estimate, you will be able to discuss your financing options based on the expected costs of the entire project. Pre-qualification allows the project to move forward to the next step: the site visit.

 

Evaluating the Location | Typical Time: 7 Days

After pre-qualification, you and your contractor will schedule a site visit to evaluate the land and determine what is needed to develop the site. Site development might include tasks such as tree removal, installing a septic system and putting in a temporary driveway for construction vehicles. Because every site is different, the requirements and associated costs will vary from project to project.

This is also the opportunity to decide where on the land the home will be situated. Factors such as view from your windows, orientation to the street and privacy considerations will help guide this decision.
