Q    How long does it take to build a custom home?

A    It generally takes 7 months after the plans have been drawn.  Depending on the size of the home, weather, and other variables, there may be a variance of up to 60 days from the average.

Q    How much does it cost to build a custom home?

A    There are as many answers to that question as there are houses.  Typically a custom home starts at $100+ per square foot and will increase according to the items you choose for your home.

Q    What are some of the items that influence the final cost of a custom home the most?

A    From our experience, these items have the greatest effect on a finished home price:   kitchens, floor coverings, type of windows, type of roof system, type of siding, size of decks, complicated floor plans, excavation, and finishes.  There are other influences simply because each house is typically unique unto itself.

Q    How does the design process work?

A    Our designers will take the basic floorplan you have in mind, and work with you to plan to your specifications.  If you don't have a floorplan in mind, we work with you to create a "Wish List."  Ask us about our Client Design Kit.

Q    How will I know if what I am designing will work on my lot? 

A    The only real way for your dream home to end up as you envision, is to have someone walk your lot with you, looking for factors that will influence design and costs.  We have a checklist to go over while on your lot, to help eliminate common problems encountered during design and construction.  Ask us about our "Walking the Lot" check list.
