| WHAT IS THE OWNER-BUILT PROGRAM? It's a special program that allows you to get involved with your new home construction. It's simple, rewarding, and it will save you money -- guaranteed. And we'll be there every step of the way to guide you along and answer all of your questions. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q. Can I help design my own Home? A. Absolutely. You can design a home to fit your specific needs. Whether you select a standard design, modify an existing design, or utilize our custom design service to create an original masterpiece of your own, you can help design your new home, while at the same time making sure that local codes are adhered to. Q. How does the “Owner-Built Program” work? A. Traditional new construction uses a “General Contractor” (GC). A GC will typically charge you for his time, and then also mark up the costs quoted to him by his subcontractors. You have little or no say in the selection of these subcontractors. The Owner-Built Program, however, lets you act as your own general contractor, purchasing the material package directly and paying subcontractors without the GC markup. All of this lets you save money. Q. Can I do any of the work myself? A. Yes! The “Owner-Built Program” lets you decide how much, or how little, you want to contribute to the construction process. Regardless of whether you do most of the work, some of the work, or virtually none at all; the choice is yours. Many people are able to reduce costs by doing painting, insulation, or similar tasks, often building enough “sweat equity” into the house to satisfy down payment requirements, or to avoid having to pay PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance). This can reduce your monthly mortgage payment. Q. What about obtaining building permits, project supervision and subcontractor scheduling? A. We will assist you in such things as obtaining building permits, project coordination, validating material deliveries, worker scheduling, quality control, local inspections or obtaining the certificate of occupancy. We are knowledgeable about the process, and know how to keep your costs down during the construction period. Alternatively, you could also choose to have limited involvement in the construction process. The Owner-Built Program lets you decide the method that fits your needs best. Q. Will a bank lend me money if I utilize this program? A. Yes! We have partnered with various lenders who support this program, and are ready to lend you construction funds to get your project started. It's easy. Q. I can’t wait to get started! What’s the next step? A. Contact us to discuss your building project. We'll talk about your home design preferences and how you want to utilize the Owner-Built Program. |
