"It was a big build. Coordination of trades was important. Their work to navigate permits with multiple government agencies kept the project on track and on budget. . It's drawn a lot of neighborhood attention. One of the goals was to make this large shop fit into the neighborhood. Job well done."

"Tom is very professional and fair. This was an addition to an existing home, so there ended up being additional work that needed to be done to the original structure that was not anticipated. But we found Tom to be earnest and trustworthy in his assessment of which work was a priority, and which was not. Despite the additional cost for this additional work, the cost for the original work came in on budget. Quality of work was very good."

"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

"We just purchased our first home, which we love for its historic character. So much of the original house was still in place when we moved in, including the windows. And while we loved them for their historic charm, they were in pretty terrible shape. We chose Legacy and they did a superb job installing the perfect windows that blended perfectly with the rest of our home. We would not have gone a different way with that selection."

"These guys are first-rate. I've worked with four of them now, including the company president Michael O'Brien, and they are each exceptional in quality, attention to detail, and courteous service. I had two sets of closet doors delivered to a store near one of their homes, and he picked up and delivered the doors both times for me. This is just one of several examples in which they worked in making things as easy as possible for me. The initial week-long visit and a second occasion when I hired them again meant huge leaps forward for my home, and I have come to trust that they will show up and get the job done.  The Angie's List special was a steal; it was sobering to hire them for a single day and have a higher price.  But MPO is worth it, especially as part of this last visit consisted of setting right work I'd had done by others before I found these guys:  they are my answer to home repair and construction jobs!

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

Modular homes can go up or down in value depending on a few factors. In areas where real estate is appreciating, the value of modular homes is likely to increase, and vice versa. Additionally, the value of modular homes depends partially on the area. In cities where every other home is stick-built, modular homes might be considered a functional obsolescence, in which case they could be less desirable and go down in value. In either case, though, modular homes can still be a good investment, especially since they provide housing at a lower upfront cost.

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.
