"We are truly grateful for Alex Custom home for giving us a beautiful and well made house. We have had other houses built for us and the end product on this one has really surprised us. Anyone that has built a house before knows that there are always small details to take care after your final walk through. To our surprise, they had more items on their to do list than we had identified. By the time we moved in, only one item was left to take care of and it was a delivery delay which was out of their hands. We love our new house and how well it is built. Thank you to all the team from Alex Custom homes."

"Luke built our forever home on 10 acres. He is a second generation home builder with a lot of experience. He is a lake county native and understands what it takes to build a home in different Florida soil types. Luke also was very lenient when it came to negotiations at every part of the home build. We consulted multiple other builders and Luke was the most affordable and has done an amazing job. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing to build a home or any home projects."

"Tom worked with us to design and build our sunroom. He is not only a great person but a perfectionist. Each sub he used was great and our sunroom turned out as we had imagined it. I would recommend McCloskey Homes Inc for any design and building need. The cost was reasonable, time from start to finish was as planned, the quality first rate."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

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.

Green homes are often more expensive to build, averaging around $200 per square foot compared to the $150 per square foot you’d spend to build a standard home. However, green homes can save you money on your utility bills by consuming less energy or creating energy using solar panels or wind turbines on-site. They’re more expensive to build, but they often end up costing less in the long run.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.

While many different factors determine whether a house is classified as a villa, many villas are detached homes with a European design influence, often with an emphasis on luxury and comfort. Modern villas often feature outdoor spaces such as terraces, gardens, or patios.
