Build on a Custom Lot

First, though, you’ll start the process by designing your dream house and beginning the construction phase. If you have decided to construct a beautiful new custom home on your own lot, you’re going to have the freedom to build just the type of home that you would love to live in.

• Help you find your lot. Building on your own lot is the best choice that you can make to design and construct your dream home. However, that doesn’t mean that it will be easy to find the lot that you need for a home built to your specifications. One of the advantages of building on your own lot is that it’s truly customizable for both your home and your yard.
• Be there while you meet the builder. A build-on-your-lot specialist can assist you as discuss your design plans with the builder at the lot that you plan to purchase or already own. A specialist will tell you if the lot is appropriate for the style of home that you would like or if there are problems with the location that will alter your architectural plans. Your lot specialist will also be communicating with the builder. That way, you’re all working towards constructing your new home, together. The lot specialist may be the builder or the builder’s sales person.
• Warn you of possible problems and direct you towards solutions. If you have found a lot, you must be sure that it is “buildable” for new homes in the Pittsburgh area. For example, if you are looking at a lot that has hilly terrain, the land may need to be stabilized to prevent future issues. If there are trees on the property, they will need to be cleared away, or dirt may have to be hauled off the site. All of these instances will add to your costs.
