Frequently Asked Questions About New Construction
New home construction refers to the process of building a home from the ground up, with no pre-existing structure to add to. The process is very detailed, beginning with initial designs and flowing into pre-construction and ultimately, the building phase of the project. We are expert custom home builders and serve as your partner during every phase, from design consultation to site-prep to the final build, you're in excellent hands with BHR Construction for your new home project.
Look for a builder that communicates well upfront and is eager to help you make the best decisions for your needs. A good builder will act as a consultant, informing you of the steps required to get your project started. It's extremely important that your builder is licensed and insured. Licensing requires a builder to be trained and knowledgeable regarding the services they provide and guarantees they have been approved by a 3rd party governing body to do the work at a high level. Insurance protects you from liability in the event of damages or personal injury during your project, so it should be a requirement for you that your builder can prove he has insurance.
It varies depending on many factors, but you can expect a range from 6 months to 12 months as a standard timeframe. Larger builds or those that are fully custom (not working from a pre-made floorplan) can take longer, and delays in permitting or weather-related issues can also lengthen the time it takes to build your new home.
We specialize in luxury home construction and work with very high quality, long-lasting, beautiful materials. Fully custom homes start at around $700,000 and can range as high as your needs dictate. For semi-custom homes or those utilizing a pre-made plan, you can expect to start at around $450,000 and go up to $700,000. When you work with us for your new home construction, you're working with a luxury home builder who guarantees the pinnacle of style and quality, and a partner who goes the extra mile to bring your dream home to life.
Definitely. Not obtaining an up-front pre-approval is a common mistake that can potentially cause delays down the road. Understanding your financial reach before you start the design process is essential to a streamlined process. You don't want to design your dream home only to find out you're not approved for what it will cost to build. We encourage all prospective clients to obtain pre-approval before contacting us so that we know what we are able to do in terms of design. This allows us to better serve you and prevents you from experiencing a discouraging let-down after the process has begun.
