"What an amazing experience I had! I recommend Chellyanna to all my friends looking for a remodel or addition. Two things stood out which I think made Chellyanna stand out from the other contractors I have dealt with: 1) Timeliness- We showed Yossi around the house before we closed on our new home. The day after we closed they already started demo and never looked back. The stream of skilled workers never stopped coming until the project was done. Drywall, painting, plumbing, electric etc. were all done without delay. 2) Responsiveness - Yossi was always available to answer a call, tweak the project or answer our questions. We always felt that we had someone we could turn to and the entire process was extremely transparent. You will not be disappointed!"

Customers say: True professional

"Tip top is an excellent company. I did not know there were still firms out there that took customer service as seriously as they do. They went above and beyond what most would have done to help me make my dream a reality. Their work was outstanding . They finished in two days and left my driveway as neat as they found it. I would highly recommend this company."

"Kirk Hanes, owner of Homes By Hanes, built a house for myself and my husband. Kirk did an outstanding job for us and made the whole new-build process so easy. He communicated with us throughout the entire process. He listened to all of my suggestions and made every attempt to give me exactly what I wanted. He also addressed any concerns I had with immediate attention. He is a wonderful builder who pays attention to detail in the building process to assure everything is perfect. We were so happy with Kirk as a builder, we are actually wanting him to do an add-on room to our new-build home. Great experience with Homes By Hanes!!!"

"I hired DSH Construction Services to build a wall of custom cabinets in my office. Dustin was able to take my vision and bring it to life. He provided so much expertise around the type of wood we should use, the style elements to include and the overall design. I am so happy with how it turned out and will happily recommend Dustin and his team for future projects."

"We recently completed a full home remodel and couldn’t be happier with the results. The team painted both the exterior and interior of our home, installed beautiful new countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms, replaced our HVAC unit and water heater, updated the lighting throughout the house, and installed new vinyl plank flooring. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. The quality of workmanship was excellent, and every part of the project was completed with care and attention to detail. The new flooring and lighting completely transformed the look of our home, and the fresh paint inside and out made everything feel brand new. They stayed on schedule, communicated well throughout the process, and made sure we were happy with every step of the remodel. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, high quality home renovation work."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
