"Anthony and his crew were friendly and professional throughout the whole project. Anthony gave us a clearly broken down estimate prior to starting the work and we were very confident in his work from start to finish. He and his crew did an excellent job and we would absolutely use him again for future projects. His prices were reasonable and comparable to other quotes we received-he provided us with a clear payment schedule over the course of the project, communicated with us every step of the way and went above and beyond to give us tips and additional info that was helpful to us as new-ish homeowners. Would absolutely recommend."

"I used these guys for a remodeling job which included bathroom renovation, some minor electrical work, knocking down and installing new dry wall and painting. Class acts! We all hear horror stories about contractors not calling you back or not showing up on time or showing up at all. Not these guys! Hector, Moises and their crew really did exactly what they said they were going to do. Friendly, responsive and oh yea, solid work! Professional through and through! Highly recommend them and would use them again!"

"An amazing experience! I was constantly involved with the decisions being made and was always comfortable with the company itself. I was continuously updated on due dates, payments needed and actuality of each situation. Amazing communication between each and every contractor. I loved how my house looked by the end of it and would highly recommend Strategic Operational to anyone!"

"After purchasing our first home, we worked with Tommy to do a full remodel. His design ideas allowed us to create our dream home. Tommy and his team were professional, courteous, and always met their deadlines. In total, we did a remodel of our kitchen, living room, dining room, great room, 3 bathrooms, master bedroom, a walk in closet, brand new siding/gutters, a new heating & plumbing system, and a lot of interior work. Our friends are in awe of the work that Tommy and his team did at our house. Tommy took his time to get to know us, design exactly what we wanted, and saw the project through from start to finish. We are already speaking with Tommy on other projects for our home. His professionalism outweighed any other contractor that we interviewed, it was a pleasure to work with Tommy and I have recommended him to all of my friends and family."

"Romeo performed an emergency roof repair and dealt with the problem to it's conclusion. He is a man of his word. I subsequently hired him to do brickwork on my home. Both jobs were done professionally to my satisfaction. I recommend Romeo."

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150 per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.

Craftsman-style homes are predominantly found in the Western United States, specifically in Southern California, where the style originated. Since the climate was mild and there was access to plenty of natural resources, Southern California became a hub for this style at its inception. That being said, if you consult with an architect near you, you can have a Craftsman-style home anywhere.

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.

Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.
