Who Do We Need To Talk To?

Written By Toby Witte

Who else do we have to talk to before we start considering creating a custom home for ourselves?
Well. No one really.

Wait! WHAT ??

You say, you don’t know how all this works and what questions to ask. You are sure there are about a million people who will be involved in the making of your dream home. And each one of them has something to add to your decision-making process.

Yes. That might be so. And we will introduce you to them all, one by one.

However, at the beginning of the game you only need to figure out a few basic questions. And we will go through them with you so you can make an informed decision moving forward.

But Who?

Okay, okay … eventually we are going to involve:

  • builders

  • structural engineers

  • movers

Maybe:

  • interior designers

  • civil engineers

  • mechanical engineers

  • landscape architects

  • geotech (soil testing) folks

  • perc test testers

  • kitchen studio folks

  • fine woodworkers

  • energy efficiency testers

  • solar panel experts

  • material distributors

  • a ton of subcontractors

  • building code inspectors

  • door handle installer people (just testing if you are reading the list)

  • show room people from tiles to faucets

  • smart home people

  • real estate agents

… and on and on.

It’s Just You

At the beginning it’s just you. Maybe you will have to reach out to your banker or financial advisor, whoever can shine some light on what you can afford. And maybe you should talk with your family and close friends to see if you haven’t gone completely insane, asking for the kind of home you have been dreaming about for a while now. That is about it.

All you have to figure out is whether you are ready for the adventure ahead. And while your close confidants provide you with some feedback, we help you with the rest before the show gets started.

We lay out a plan with you so that you can make an educated decision before we begin. We will talk about costs and timelines, your wish list and aspirations, your site and environmental concerns, and your partner’s snoring. And after all of that we define your goal posts. Together.

That’s it.
