"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

"My late husband built our 30-year-old, 2,800 sq. ft. cedar-sided home.  The exterior had deteriorated to the point of no return. In addition to the siding, the roof needed to be replaced, as well as the cloudy double-pane windows.  Robert Manos, with G & M Construction, replaced the roof with dimensional shingles (and a metal-roof on the porch--metal roofs being their specialty), replaced the cedar with Hardy ColorPlus siding, replaced all the windows, added a beautiful deck, poured a stoop and sidewalk, laid ceramic tile in my kitchen and around the stone fireplace.  They even patched walls, and patched and sprayed ceilings where needed throughout the house.  My favorite project was a custom cedar ceiling in the breakfast room.  I had wanted to reuse a portion of the salvageable cedar from the exterior.  Robert and his crew painstakingly planed the curling, grayed boards to my satisfaction, beveled the edges for a finished look, and the rough, ugly, old cedar was transformed into a beautiful ceiling, in homage to my late husband's love of that natural wood.  This entire experience of working with Robert and his crew was such a blessing.  They are honest, hard-working, perfectionistic craftsmen.  A process that might have been tedious and challenging was instead brought to a close with a bond of friendship and respect.  I can not recommend this crew more highly."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.

Modular homes last an average of between 50 and 75 years, and high-quality modular homes can last for 100 years with proper maintenance. For comparison, a standard home lasts 50 to 100 years and can push to 150 or longer with good maintenance. Modular homes provide better long-term value in that they are significantly more affordable and can last almost as long, but some buyers are wary of modular home longevity, so the actual value if you sell could be lower.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

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.
