What is the cost per square foot? |
The cost "per square foot" can
vary widely between different homes. This big difference is the
result of several factors including the house design, construction
type and finishes.. Larger homes tend to cost less per square
foot. Homes with a more complicated roof design, vaulted ceilings,
and lots of extra windows tend to cost more per square foot. Some
homes include garages, porches and decks in the base price. The
"cost per square foot of living area" on these homes is higher
(when comparing them to homes that do not include these features).
Some homes just cost more to build than others, and it costs more
to build in some geographical areas than others. For these
reasons, the "average cost per square foot" doesn't really tell
you anything. It's somewhat like comparing new car prices based on
"cost per pound'. It just doesn't give you enough
information to properly answer your question. We will be happy to
give you the precise "cost per square foot" on any of our models
in which you have an interest or we can also work with you if you
have your own plans. Feel free to
contact us for
more information.

What size homes to you build? |
We have no limitations as to
the size of homes we build. Nothing is too small or simple
and nothing is too large or complex. We have experience
statewide with the varying county building codes and we also have
available models and floorplans we can show if you if have not yet
found the right one..

Can you work with my architect or can you find
me one? |
Yes, we can work with any
architect you choose or if you are in need of one we have several
that we work closely with that we can refer you to.

|
Can you start on my outbuildings while I sell
my existing home and finish the house design? |
Yes, particularly in the case
of horse ranches where there is additional work in site
preparation and outbuilding construction, we can start these areas
early to assure you an earlier move-in date.

|
Can I be involved with the construction on a
daily basis? |
Yes, we pride ourselves on our
ability to work closely with the homeowner and encourage you to
get involved as deeply as you like in the daily construction
process. We have homeowners that often like to live on-site
so that they can make changes and modification late in the
development cycle. The close relationship we build with our
homeowners allows them to "tweak" their home to their
satisfaction. If you do not wish to have a hands-on approach
to the construction process we will keep you informed through
regularly scheduled selection and progress meetings. These
meetings are an effective means to keep you informed throughout
the construction process. Whether the meetings take place at our
office, a vendor's showroom, or at your construction site, we
recognize the importance of your participation in achieving total
customer satisfaction.

How is price controlled if I chose to make
changes on a daily basis? |
Many of our clients prefer a
cost-plus approach when making decisions and changes on a
day-to-day basis. We provide our clients with an "open book"
of charges that they can monitor on a regular basis to assure
costs stay under control.
