Before purchasing property for your custom build, it’s important to know what to look for in vacant land. For starters, you’ll want to ensure your lot is buildable, or won’t cost you more to prepare for construction than the building process itself. While it may be tempting to purchase a cheaper site in your dream location, the reality is that there could be a number of hidden expenses involved that would inevitably bring more headaches. This includes the cost of setting up utilities, conducting land surveys, and purchasing title insurance. Most importantly though, and before purchasing any piece of land, you’ll want to be sure your property is zoned for residential use and you’re aware of any ordinances or deed restrictions that might complicate your build. Since everything you build requires a permit, you’ll also want to consider what permits you’ll need for your specific design, including permits for building ADUs or detached garages on your property. That said, purchasing land is an exciting first step in your building process and should be a worthwhile investment that grows in value overtime.

Fixing up an existing home can be a rewarding challenge for many homeowners, but one that also comes with an expensive price tag. In fact, HomeAdvisor estimates that renovating a home costs $10 to $60 per square foot on average, with the possibility of spending up to $150 per square foot for more high-end renovations. For a 2,400 sq. ft. home, that means renovations can cost up to $360,000 for a full home makeover. Instead of spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in renovation costs, consider the benefits of designing an entirely new home from scratch with everything you want and need included. With a custom home design from DC Builders, you could have the home you always dreamed of in a matter of months and all within reach of your budget.
