"Excellent. I would recommend Dennis and his crew to anyone. They did a fantastic job in a timely manner and helped get me and my dog reunited in our comfy new home. He also communicated with me regularly so that I always knew what was going on. Thank you Dennis!"

"Costas and his team did a wonderful job on my Aunt's home. What started off as a deck repair, turned into so much more (siding, windows, new 1/2 bath). The house had been in a bit of disrepair and he was very thoughtful and thorough in his approach to bringing it back to life. My family and I will enjoy it for many years to come, and I truly appreciate some of the little things he did along the way to ensure everything was done right. He took the initiative to select things when I was not able to be there. It felt very much like he was treating as if it were his own home. His attention to detail was terrific, and he was super responsive. THANK YOU again!"

"I highly recommend Kevin Martin and his company, Hegel's Hedges. We recently employed them to build a deck, replace a bathroom floor and install a new toilet, and repair a kitchen cabinet. Kevin's quote was very reasonable and all work was done in a timely manner and exceeded our expectations. In addition, our homeowner's association employed Kevin's company to build a new dumpster enclosure and replace fencing for our 14 unit condominium complex. Kevin's bid was by far the most reasonable of the three bids that we solicited. In my experience as an HOA board member and private client, Kevin and his team show up exactly when promised and work very efficiently. I can recommend Kevin and his company without hesitation."

"Don, the salesman, was pleasant, well-informed and very helpful. We are in a Portland historic district and he provided all the needed material for approval. There was a delay in the installation due to a hurricane in the south. After resetting the installation appointment, the installation was done in 2 1/2 days. The installers were polite, helpful and very efficient. They did have some installation problems with the size of some windows, but contacted the company owner who gave the go ahead to complete their work by the next morning. When finished everything was cleaned up and all questions were answered. The Window Source is an excellent company and I highly recommend it."

"The team at Cinderella performed a top notch job.  They were extremely responsive with customer service. They repaired years of poor stain jobs and brought the two decks back to life.  They look practically brand new.   Well worth the cost of the work.

"Yes the work was done. The two guys that came put in 7 windows and two big bay windows in one day. They did not even taken a break. They cleaned up the small pieces of scrap. Then one week later they came back and put in two new doors with the same professionalism when they did my doors."

Home Building FAQs, 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.

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Construction typically takes 3-6 months, including site preparation and assembly.

A custom home is one that you design from the ground up, allowing you to customize everything from the square footage to the interior layout to all of the materials used. A spec home is one that a builder has designed and gotten approvals for. Spec homes may give you some limited options for the layout and materials, but most of the build is pre-set. Custom homes cost more and take longer to build.
