"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."

"When you call American Home Solutions in Oswego, Mack Majeski will get back to you in a timely fashion. Mack came to our home and gave us a estimate for a new roof. He was professional and knowledgeable of all aspects of roofing and clearly listed all elements in his estimate. In the estimate he listed the manufacture warranty and guarantees his craftsmanship for 25 years. His price was very competitive. We asked for a certificate of Liability Insurance and he provided us with a copy before work started. A date was scheduled for the work to begin (weather permitting.) He started the work on the date he promised. A large crew began work and nearly completed the entire roof on the first day. Care was take to protect shrubbery around the house and everything discarded was taken away. The second day the crew came back and finished the roof. We asked Mack to do a separate side project and he obliged. If you call him about anything related to works he has done he will get back to you. I would recommend his company for a roofing project big or small."

"Bob was very responsive and accommodating to my needs. This was a small project but he treated it as though it was large and with the same urgency. I needed stairs rebuilt in my back yard that were crumbling. Bob was on time and was able to get the job done in a reasonable time for a good price. Stairs came out excellent and we are happy. This is one of several projects I have have this company do for us. If your looking for a professional, honest, and reliable contractor I would suggest giving these guys a look."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, 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.

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.

A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren’t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

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.
