According to the embedded video, these are the most important tips from builders.
1. Use Your Schedule as a Guideline
Keep in mind that every custom-built home does not follow the same schedule, simply because of contracting schedules and special materials. This is something that most custom home builders experience regularly.
2. Make A Future Design
Expect the unexpected, such as more children or parents moving in.
It is easier to build a house as large as you may need it instead of going through a remodel later.
3. Complete The Home Before You Move In
Many builders find that some projects go unfinished so the family can move in early. Once you do that, it is harder to take the time to finish these projects, and they get put off for years, causing inconveniences.
4. Plan For Storage
There often isn’t enough storage in a regular home, and custom home builders know their clients are looking for this as a part of the design. Create ample closet space and areas that can be used for storage so you aren’t just using your garage.
5. Do Your Research
Before you choose a custom home builder, make sure you have checked referrals and reviews on their current and past projects to ensure they’re the right contractor for your home.
