"The process was awesome. He let us know what decisions needed to be made by when and gave us all the resources we needed to make wise decisions about EVERY aspect of our home. The man even went and watched the rain on three different occasions to check the grade of our land before making the first dig!! If you want attention to detail and a good steward of your money, this is the man and company for you!!!!!!! We closed with equity in our beautiful home."

"We recently hired Prime Management to fully remodel our mid-century beach house. We knew it would be challenging to work with an older home full of surprises but they did a great job revitalizing the entire house with current features while mixing in historical charm. Not only did they take very good care of our home with excellent craftsmanship, they made sure we were involved throughout the process with great communication and attention to detail. We couldn’t be happier with the end result! Should we ever need another trusted builder, the team at Prime Management will be our first call – they should be yours as well!"

"The men arrived bright and early, tools in hand.  They ran a new hot water pipe under my house.  They put plastic up on a large side porch for us, and then checked the water pipe for leaks before they left.  They did a great job, and were finished quickly.  Although I originally hired Mr Coleman to take care of my yard, I also depend on Rent-a-Man for all our plumbing and construction needs. "

"The company was extremely professional yet personable, warm, and friendly, They did exactly what I asked and did it extremely well. They were very helpful with my indecisive self on picking out colors and they turned out beautiful!!! The 15 year old gym set on which they replaced any old wood and painted to blend yet contrast with the colors on the house looks amazing and brand new!!! They also replaced pieces of wood on the house snd porch that needed replacing. I have NO complaints only praise for this company. When I need the inside of my house painted this will be the company I call...hands down!!!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.

Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150 per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.
