If you have your heart set on building a new home from scratch, you’ll to pick one of three options: build it with your bare hands, hire an architect and coordinate all the contractors, or work with a custom home builder. The first option requires an amount of know-how and elbow grease few have, so we can probably strike it from the list. This leaves us with two viable options.
While coordinating all the subcontractors and working directly with the architect might sound like a fun cost-saving method, it rarely pans out the way homeowners originally intended. Working with a custom home builder, however, has several upsides.
More Bang for Your Buck
By working with a custom home builder, you get access to an entire team of home building specialists. Architects, designers, and contractors will all be standing at the ready whenever you have questions or ideas. This saves an incredible amount of time by cutting out the back and forth, which saves you money.
A Project Manager
Best of all, you won’t have to worry about managing this team because the home builder will take care of that. A good home builder will have long-standing relationships with all the necessary parties involved in building a home. This gives you one point of contact instead of having to play phone tag with everyone.
Quality Control
Building a custom home is certainly an investment, and one you’ll want to have for a while. Having a home builder on your side gives you the assurance of quality control. With a quick walk through, a home builder can see if all the materials and methods are up to par. This kind of spot check is something you couldn’t do by yourself.
