"My first interaction started kind of with suspicion, but I relied on good ratings on this site and other sites. Now after the house is complete I should have looked around how to spend over 700 k. They hired subcontractors from the very cheapest spectrum but billed me as if they hired the most expensive specialists. I had overages in most categories without any proof. The builder trend communication they use is confusing, slow and serves the builders interest only, they can edit it anytime too. So if you get quotes from Southernwood do not be happy, the price at closing would magically increase by many many thousands. My basement is already cracked as well as my driveway and I did not even move in yet. I have no water pressure despite spending over 20 grand on upgrading the well and having 70+ psi at well with 3hp motor and 100gallon per min supply. Blame game is ongoing. Too many flies in the ointment. I am sharing for you to make a more informed decision I wish I had. My next step with them will most likely be BBB, then complaint with the Consumer Protection then litigating. I am ready to spend another 15 grand on a lawyer."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

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.

A carriage house is a freestanding building, while a townhouse is connected to other units. A townhouse is a full single-family home and typically shares a parcel of land with other connected homes. A carriage house is rarely used as the sole single-family home on a property and is most often an additional building sharing property with a traditional single-family home.
