We’ve streamlined the build-on-your-lot home construction process, designing and building homes in a matter of months, not years. Most clients spend about 2 months designing their home with us. After the design is complete, most projects take 1 month for permitting and preparation, and 6 months for construction. An overall total of 9 months is common. However, adding more custom features and making specialty selections will make the process a little longer.
