The typical custom home construction timeline is 6-8 months from groundbreaking to move-in, depending on the size and complexity of your home.

Our complete process includes:

• Design phase: 2-3 months for plans and permits
• Construction phase: 7-10 months for building
• Final walkthrough: 1-2 weeks for completion details

Weather, change orders, and permit approval times can affect the timeline. We provide regular updates throughout the process to keep you informed.

Custom home costs vary based on size, location, materials, and finishes.

Cost factors include:

• Square footage: $250+ per square foot
• Lot preparation: $10,000-50,000 depending on site
• Finishes and upgrades: Can add 10-30% to base cost
• Permits and fees: Typically 3-5% of construction cost

We provide detailed estimates during our design phase, so you know exactly what to expect before construction begins.

No, you don't need to own land first. We can help you find the perfect lot for your custom home and guide you through the land acquisition process.

Our land services include:

• Lot evaluation and recommendation
• Site feasibility assessment
• Zoning and permit research
• Connection with local real estate agents
• Soil testing and survey coordination

If you already have land, we'll conduct a comprehensive site evaluation to ensure it's suitable for your dream home design.

Our comprehensive service includes everything from initial design to final walkthrough:

• Design consultation and architectural planning
• Permit acquisition and approval process
• Site preparation and utility connections
• Complete construction with quality materials
• Project management and regular communication
• Final walkthrough and home orientation

You'll also receive access to our client portal for real-time updates, photos, and project tracking throughout the build.

Minor changes are possible during construction, but we strongly recommend finalizing all decisions during the design phase to avoid delays and additional costs.

Our process minimizes changes by:

• Detailed design reviews before construction
• Material selection appointments
• Regular check-ins during planning

If changes are necessary during construction, we'll provide transparent pricing and timeline impacts before proceeding.

We handle all permits and inspections as part of our comprehensive service. You don't need to worry about the complex approval process.

Our permit services include:

• Building permit applications and submissions
• Zoning compliance verification
• Utility connection permits
• Environmental and safety approvals
• Scheduling and coordinating all inspections

We have established relationships with local building departments and know exactly what's required for smooth approval in your area.
