Phase 1: Tour Model
Set up a time to visit the model. Take a look around at the eye for detail and uniqueness. Also, find out if there are any other houses under construction that you could take a look at and get familiar with the building process.
Phase 2: Meet The Builder
Meeting the builder is a key step. Just knowing who is in charge and who you are dealing with will give you piece of mind. Ask questions and learn the process directly from the builder.
Phase 3: Find A Lot And A Plan
Determining where to build and what to build can be a lot of fun. We try to make it as easy as possible. We help in every way that we can to get you all the proper information about lots and developments. The house plan is a positive process, because we can build anything that the imagination can think up. We are always looking for unique ideas.
Phase 4: Finalize Plans
Sitting down with the builder to determine any changes as well as any additions. We call this red lining the print. Our goal is to include the homeowner as much as possible in the entire process. Knowing what materials and mechanicals go on in the home is very important.
Phase 5: Budget
A spreadsheet is used to determine the price of the home. Everything is in black and white and shows what we do above and beyond what is expected.
Phase 6: Contract Signing
All your documents are put together for you: house plans, home specifications, budget, and the contract. These documents are only for the builder and the homeowner to see.
Phase 7: Selections
What a fun and exciting step! You will get plenty of notification on when selections need to be made at certain times of construction. The builder has been known to give advice when needed and to help the homeowner make difficult choices.
Phase 8: Pre-Construction Meeting
Meet the builder to determine the date for dig and go over any last minute details.
Phase 9: Construction
The builder will be in communication with you during the whole process. You will have his direct line as well as e-mail address.
Phase 10: Media Upgrades
Get progress updates throughout the build on your iPad, iPod, smartphone, and computer.
Phase 11: Time To Move
Congratulations, you have made it through the building process! The builder will meet you on site and do a full Homeowner Orientation. He will show you how everything operates and go through the whole home with you.
