Custom Home Tips & FAQ
Have questions about building a custom home? Our team answers some of our most frequently asked questions. If you have a specific question, reach out to our team.
Why should I choose a custom home?
A custom home ensures you get exactly the design features, floor plans, and styles you want. Building a custom home also makes sure you get a home that is best suited for the land you will live on and its unique features.
What is the difference between a spec home and a custom home?
A speculative home is a new house that is not built with a specific homeowner in mind. The home is designed and built in a way that the seller believes a buyer will want. These homes often have limited customization.
Custom homes are built with you in mind. They are tailored to your wishes and needs.
How long does it take to build a custom home?
Each custom home is different, that’s what makes them special. In general, it takes about 1 year to complete a custom home project from start to finish.
What time of year should I build a home?
Because of the time it takes to plan and build a new home, spring is the optimal time to begin a new home build. Spring offers optimal weather and plenty of daylight which creates favorable construction conditions. But, other seasons can work when planned properly. Talk with your project manager to find a season that works best for you.
