I have been a licensed architect since 1988, practicing in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In 2005, I launched my own firm with emphasis on single family and multi-family residential design, commercial building design and fit-out and institutional design for public entities with a focus on administrative and justice projects. I have a wide and deep range of experience with residential, commercial and institutional clients. I work well with clients, developers, builders and construction managers. I understand the process and value of the primary project delivery methods including design-bid-build and design-build. Stylistically, my philosophy is to fit in with the local style, while maintaining integrity and fluidity of design. Architectural heroes: Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn, Frank Furness, Henry Hobson Richardson.

"David was professional, gave excellent recommendations and was a true pleasure to work with. Really willing to work with us on getting our project finalized and approved and was easy to reach with any questions or changes. Defintely recommend!"

"Hired them 9/6/2025. They sent out a third party to measure the home. That third party never provided Evolution the measurements. Evolution sent out another third party and they measured the house at something like 2,400 sq ft. We were provided a draft of the house and almost all the measurements were off. We communicated with Eliza and Collin but the corrected drafts were inaccurate as well. All we were trying to do was convert a golf cart garage to a closet and connect an existing bathroom to that closet, which would have increased our square footage from 1,490 sq ft to 1,610 sq ft. We sent the accurate measurements that we took ourselves to Eliza on November 18, 2025. Today is December 29, and despite a follow up call to Collin a few weeks ago we still haven?t heard anything from her. Fortunately we only spent a few thousand dollars on these clowns and have now found a reputable local company who has many more five star reviews on Yelp and this site. Avoid them at all costs!!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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

Yes, you can finance new construction using a construction loan or a construction-to-permanent loan, or you can use a home equity line of credit or a cash-out refinance if you’re building a second home. Some mortgagors may have restrictions on DIY house builds, so be sure to check that you can get financing before starting your project.

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

Yes, a home builder should have a builder’s license and insurance. States have different requirements for builder’s licensing and certifications. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review your local home builder licensing guidelines.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Certified” badge. Angi Certified businesses meet our standards for certification, which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
