"We entered a contract with Michael Lewallen for a major addition. We chose him because his bid was the lowest. Michael Lewallen, after collecting 95% of our money, with only 60% of the project completed, said he underbid the project and basically, at the point we were on our own. He breached our contract. We paid out of pocket six figures, if we hadnâ t our project would have sat, open to the elements. It is money we did not have. It canâ t be blamed on Covid because had it been completed in the contractual 8 months, it would have been done before the pandemic. Also, some of the sub contractors told us they either had a terrible time getting paid, or they didnâ t get paid at all. In order to complete our project, we had to pay the sub contractors out of our pocket, after we had already paid Michael Lewallen for the very same services. We also paid in full any change orders to Lewallen. Much of those monies were kept by Lewallen and then we had to pay again directly to the sub contractor. We talked with two others of his customers, one project sits and the other elderly couple have paid 90% as well and their project is approximately 30% completed. Michael Lewallen underbids, slow walks the projects while billing aggressively each month, and you pay because if you don't, you are afraid he will stop totally. Once he has your money, he shuts down his services. Our project was contractually promised to be completed in eight months. After 15 months, and us begging to get a roof, a garage door, drywall, painting (everything we had already paid for), he pulled the rug out on us. I have had to hire an attorney. Michael is a master salesman. His website is awesome. But it is used to draw in customers, and once you sign a contract, the nightmare begins. If you are even thinking about doing business with him, talk to someone who has signed with him for a project at least six months ago. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH MICHAEL LEWALLEN."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The cost of a home renovation depends on its complexity and extent. A large remodeling project may top $71,000, while a smaller project may cost around $15,000. Using a home renovation cost estimator before you begin can give you an idea of what you can expect to pay to revamp your home.

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.

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

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.

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.
