Builder Must-Haves
When you select a builder, make sure they
have these important attributes
to help ensure success.
Trust
Simply
a sense that your builder will put your needs first and go the
extra 100 miles to make you happy.
Impressive Track
Record
Your builder should have a solid
list of happy clients and several
successful and challenging
projects under his belt.
A-Team
Your builder should have the best
subcontractors in the business –
people with years of experience
and with as high standards as
your builder.
Core Building Knowledge
Your
builder should ideally know everything about how to build a home – from
pouring a foundation to framing to plumbing to roofing to custom
moldings. This knowledge (or lack of) will surely translate to
your finished product.
Hands
On
Your builder should assure you he will be present
at every stage of
your home’s construction. This is how
mistakes are avoided and you achieve peace of mind.
Building a Relationship
Your
builder should be as focused on building a trusting relationship
with you as he is on building your home. The process of constructing
a custom home is too stressful and involving to not want a builder
who will maintain consistent and thorough communications with
you, be your eyes and ears on the job site, and be focused on
your satisfaction.
