Building a custom home is exciting, but it’s easy to make mistakes that can slow down the process or increase costs.
Here are three common pitfalls we see—and how you can avoid them.
1. Skipping the Lot Evaluation
Not all lots are created equal. Failing to evaluate soil, drainage, or setback requirements upfront can lead to costly surprises.
2. Underestimating the Budget for Finishes
It’s tempting to choose high-end finishes without fully understanding their cost impact. Early budgeting helps keep your dream home within reach.
3. Neglecting Communication
Open, regular communication with your builder ensures you stay informed and decisions are made quickly, avoiding delays.
