"This is the third time I have used Ryan and am happy to wait for his services.  I contracted for this projects months ago but agreed I would be happy to wait until after the holidays.  True to his word, Ryan called yesterday, set up an appointment for 2 pm and was here early.  Installed the door--which is a single he recommended that matches other interior doors plus looks great-- and was on his way.
I understand from other reviews that there are some customers who are perhaps not as flexible as I am. Since nothing I have ever needed him to do was an emergency, I would rather wait for him to squeeze me in with my small jobs as he is such a delight to work with.

"My husband and I have an older house 100+ years and needed our dilapidated front porch redone. We wanted the base and railings replaced while saving some of the older decorative word work. We called three places for estimates and Jake from Multicraft Construction was the fastest and friendliest person who came to the house. He listened to our preferences and had the best bid. He saw the project through from start to finish. We are really happy with the end result and we not only would high recommend this company, but plan to use him for future house projects as Multicraft Construction does a wide array of construction projects."

Custom Home Builders 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.

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

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.

The most significant expense when building a barndominium is constructing the metal shell, which includes the roof, doors, and windows. Additional exterior components impacting the overall cost include metal siding and the concrete foundation.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior.
