4–10 weeksFloor plans, elevations and selections refined until the home feels inevitable on paper — long before it costs anything to change.
- 03
Pricing & contract
2–3 weeksTransparent line-item pricing tied to your plan and selections. No moving targets, no vague allowances that quietly grow later.
- 04
Build
6–12 monthsWeekly updates, clean job sites and a dedicated point of contact from groundbreak to keys. You always know what happened this week and what's next.
- 05
Move-in & warranty
Day one onwardFinal walkthrough, punch list closed, and a one-year workmanship warranty backing every home. Support is a phone call, not a portal ticket.
What you can count on
Four promises on every project
One point of contact
The same person from first meeting to final walkthrough. No handoffs, no repeating yourself.
Weekly updates
A real update every week during construction — progress, what's next, and anything that needs a decision.
Line-item pricing
You see where every dollar goes. Allowances are written to be realistic, not to win a bid.
Warranty that answers
One-year workmanship warranty, backed by a 40+ year local team that isn't going anywhere.
