"Doug Drake of Drake Custom Builder built the vacation home that we owned for 12 years and just recently sold. The build quality and aesthetics of the home were very good and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend one of his homes. We also used Doug as a resource on a number of occasions to do repairs or upgrades to the house. We chose him because we knew that he would do a good quality job. We have been happy with the work he has done."

"I did get other bids from other companies, and Renewal by Anderson was more expensive by about fifteen thousand. However, the quality of their work, is exceptional. They came in with an crew. We did every window, and every door in the house, all the sliders. That is why it was so much money. They told me they would be done in an day. I said, oh yeah sure.They came ten to eight in the morning, and was done by sixty thirty. They were done. Mind you they had fifteen guys here. We have an eighteen hundred square foot house. The care that they took inside and outside. The plants, they even covered the pool with plastic, so no dust would get in it. I do not want the price included in the review. They were the highest bid. They also had to extend the sides of the windows, in two of the bedrooms. They had to bring it to code, and make it larger. They had to do new drywall inside the house, and stucco outside the house. They matched the stucco perfectly. They had to do new stucco on the sliders of the house, and they matched the stucco perfectly. They sent somebody later, the following week, to match the paint on our wall paint. He is an master mixer, and he brought his little kits, and matched our wall colors. He painted the frame inside the wall perfectly."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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 primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.
