FAQ’s about New Construction

How long does it take to build a new home?

It really depends on the home and how you’re paying for it. If you’re building a custom home, then working with the architect on the drawings and plans can take anywhere from a couple weeks to months. Once the home plans are done and the cost is determined it’s time to get financed (unless you’re paying cash) and get your loan approved which can take another 4 to 6 weeks. After loan approval, the builder needs to pull permits which again can take 4 to 6 weeks and once the permits are back the build process can take 3 to 9 months depending on the builder and how available their sub contractors are.

What’s the difference between a custom home builder and a production builder?

Custom home builders are willing to change just about anything about a home; they’re completely customizing the home to fit your vision and dream. A production builder is going to stick with a certain plan and may make changes to faucets, fixtures, flooring, colors but they aren’t going to move walls or change the architecture.
