Building a custom home is a big investment. We help homeowners throughout West Michigan navigate the process from initial design through construction. Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often.
The cost of a custom home depends on the size of the home, site conditions, design, materials, and finish selections. We work with you early in the design process to establish a realistic budget and make decisions that align with your goals. We have projects that finish anywhere from $250/sq ft to $400/sq ft. There are many details and factors that are a part of this number and we are capable of navigating that with you.
Yes. We build custom homes on homeowner-owned lots throughout West Michigan. We can also help evaluate a property before you purchase it to identify potential building, site, and budget considerations.
Every project is different, but most custom home projects take several months from the beginning of design through completion. The timeline depends on the complexity of the home, permitting, site conditions, material availability, and construction schedule. The design timeline is very specific to each project. Gathering the bids and compiling a full price package is usually 5-6 weeks. The build itself typically falls into the 9-12 month range.
The first step is a conversation about your goals, budget, property, and timeline. From there, we can determine the right approach for designing and building your home.
Yes. Our design-build approach brings the design and construction process together under one team. This allows us to consider your budget, site, design, and construction requirements from the beginning.
Changes to projects underway are handled through our change order process. We make sure you are aware of the impact to the project before anything changes. This helps keep project details organized and clear as the build moves forward.
