Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to build in a neighborhood- and is it more or less expensive than on a scattered lot?

Building in a development is typically less expensive than building on a scattered site because much of the utility, storm-water management, and infrastructure is already installed as part of the development. The three “S’s” (Shape, Size, and Selections) of a house plan will apply no matter where you build, but our owners have the ultimate input into each of these categories through the design process.

How long does it take to build a home in a development?

Our average construction timeline is 90-120 days once we break ground. Typically our home’s require 1-2 months of planning and permitting before breaking ground. So on average, 5 months from start to finish.

Can I customize my design, or do I have to pick from a set of designs?

As a custom Builder, we aim to make our neighborhood homes as flexible as possible. Some neighborhoods will have a set a plans to select from, and others can start from scratch. Regardless of neighborhood, each home buyer will be given a fresh house plan full of their input and ideas, even if it starts from a model home or from scratch.

Do I have to have a down payment to save my spot?

Once a building lot is identified, and the basics of the neighborhood and available house plans are approved, a small lot reservation form and deposit is required. This is a temporary “hold” until a formal house plan and agreement of sale are executed and a traditional down payment is exchanged.

How do I get financing for a development home?

Financing a new home can be as flexible and unique to each owner as necessary. Generally speaking, higher budget projects will utilize a construction loan, while neighborhood homes, or model homes we have for sale, can be an “end loan” offered through the Builder.
