The Houston real estate market remains strong as people continue to be drawn to the warm climate and affordable cost of living in the middle of a thriving metropolitan area. And the unique charm that is both Magnolia and Space City. Houston is one of the top ten cities searched for in the real estate market, and this probably won't change any time soon. Whether you're planning on moving here, ready to become homeowner, or looking to upgrade, instead of simply heading straight into the real estate scene, you might talk to local home builders who can build your dream home right down to the last light switch, faucet, and guest bedroom dimensions.
Custom Built Homes
New homes have better energy-efficiency and indoor air quality than ever before. This translates into lower fuel bills and a healthier home environment. Plus, even if you find a home in good condition, you'll still need to perform regular maintenance on your home and costly repairs long before a newly constructed home has begun to deteriorate.
Custom built homes can mean many different things, and Houston home builders offer different home building services. Almost home builders work on entire subdivisions of homes. Both planning a community and the economy of mass building makes it more profitable for them and more cost-effective for you to buy a home.
Homeowners who want to move into their new home, now, for example, may purchase a home in a community that is already built even if it means sacrificing some of their preferences. Other homeowners find a home builder who's currently starting construction on a new subdivision and then pick from one of the house plans that home builder is offering. You may also be able to create a truly customized home plan in a subdivision that's being developed for an extra cost and if your home plans meet the zoning laws and building permits of this new residential construction area.
Greater Houston Home Builders
While trying to buy a new home in Houston or an immediate suburb outside of a planned community is notoriously difficult and expensive, if you don't need to live in Houston-proper, you'll have a lot more options. Whether you're building a home along the coast, up by Lake Houston, along the Gulf Freeway, or somewhere else in greater Houston, home builders are out there who specialize in residential construction that speaks to these unique locales.
Choosing and Hiring a Builder
Too often, homeowners don't spend enough time talking to multiple contractors and interviewing them both for quality of work and cost. With home builders, though, it's absolutely essential you do your homework. A home builder that's found a way to cut labor costs by as little as 5% may be able to save you thousands of dollars. Plus, this isn't like installing a new kitchen sink or bathroom counter. This is your home and the decisions you make now will affect your home environment for as long as you stay in the house.
Cost and Project Length
While the national average for a custom home building project is around $400,000, it's difficult to predict how much your project will be because the cost of different residential lots varies so much from neighborhood to neighborhood and even month-to-month. Only by talking to local Houston home builders will you be able to get a sense of how much you can expect to spend for what you want. We can suggest that if budgetary constraints threaten to derail your project, you might try talking to a panelized home builder. By building your home in a factory-controlled setting and then transporting it to the building site, the cost of labor and materials can often be reduced without sacrificing your dream vision.
What we can tell you is that you should plan on truly custom home building project to take somewhere around 6-8 months to complete. This time is necessary to get what you want and still maintain quality construction of your new home. If you can't wait, it's probably better to talk to home builders about projects already underway.
