Choosing the right custom home builder for your project can seem like a huge task. However, there are ways to determine if the home builders you are considering are up to the desired size, schedule, and quality of your new home. Here are some ways to determine if the home building contractor is right for your project.
Ask if the home builder has their own established partnerships with subcontractors. Or, if they would contract out particular steps to the lowest bidders. Also, learn what schedule they base their fees on—milestones, percent completion, or monthly payments. Then compare which contractor’s process best fits your budget and time requirements.
This can be tricky, as some general contractors may publish a list of references they know will be favorable. Dig deep into your research and find past clients who will give honest opinions on the quality of their work and whether the builder stayed within budget and on schedule.
In the query phase, you should expect a preliminary budget that gives an estimate of the total cost to build your new home. If you decide to put this builder on your shortlist, they should provide a detailed budget of time, materials, and workforce to complete a project of your planned size and quality.
There will likely be material substitutions, weather delays, and personnel shortages with any project. Discuss how each of these possible delays would be handled and how they might affect the final cost and timeline of your custom build project.
