CREATING LASTING EXPERIENCES

OUR PROCESS

From first conversation to handing you the keys

Initial Meeting

Discuss floorplans, lot options, price range & answer any questions.

This first meeting is all about getting to know what you’re looking for in a home. Justin will talk through your must-haves, your budget comfort zone, your lot, and any ideas you’ve already fallen in love with. It’s a relaxed conversation meant to make sure we’re the right fit and to help you feel confident moving forward.

Selections Meeting

Pick out all finishes for your home to finalize pricing.

This is where the fun begins. You’ll meet with our designer, Allie, to choose the finishes, selections, and details that reflect your style — flooring, cabinets, countertops, exterior decisions, mechanical choices, and more. By the end of this meeting, we’ll have everything we need to finalize your home’s pricing based on the level of finishes and design direction you choose.

Contract Signing

Once signed, we begin permits, utilities, and lot prep.

With your selections made and pricing finalized, we’ll walk through the contract together, answer any final questions, and make everything official. After signing, we take care of all the behind-the-scenes work: submitting permits, coordinating utilities, and preparing your lot so construction can begin.

Pre-Construction Meeting

Finalize details prior to framing.

Before we break ground, we’ll meet to review every detail of your home one more time — floorplan confirmations, selections, layout tweaks, and any special requests. This ensures we’re all aligned and ready to start building with confidence and clarity.

Begin Building Your New Home

Framing starts & your home takes shape.

This is the exciting part — we break ground, walls go up, rooms appear, and your home finally starts to take shape. Throughout the build, we keep you updated and on track so you always know what stage we’re in and what’s coming next.

Onsite Mechanical Walk-Through

Electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and exterior details.

Once framing is complete, we’ll meet onsite to walk through the mechanicals — mainly electrical. Aaron, Allie, and our electrician will be there with you to confirm outlet and switch locations, talk through lighting types and placements, and review HVAC and plumbing layouts. It’s the perfect chance to make sure everything behind the walls is exactly where you want it before insulation and drywall.

Onsite Trim Walk-Through

Review built-ins, shelves, cabinetry details, and interior finishes.

Once drywall is complete, we will meet with you onsite to go over all your trim details with our carpenters — built-ins, shelving, custom trim work, locker layouts, fireplace design, and more. This ensures the finishing touches feel intentional, functional, and tailored to your lifestyle.

Final Walk-Through

Blue tape, final review, mechanicals, and warranty packet.

Before closing, we walk the home together to look over every detail. We’ll mark any touch-ups, explain how the mechanical systems work, answer questions, and review your warranty information. This step ensures your home is ready for move-in and you feel confident taking the keys.
