Over the years, we've come to know and trust numerous reputable builders, big and small.  We would be glad to refer and recommend construction companies in all price ranges that build every style of home imaginable.  We also have access to architects, lot information in developments, on lakes, with country views, on acreage, etc.  The best way to find out more is to email or call me.  We look forward to working with you to build your dream home.

1.  Have it your way. One of the most satisfying reasons to build is being able to design your home the way you choose, rather than learning to live with someone else's choices.

2.  Save on energy costs. New homes consume half as much energy as homes built before 1980, thanks to more efficient heating and cooling systems, better windows, controlled ventilation and improved insulation.

3.  The pampering factor. New homes afford more luxury and convenience with state-of-the-art kitchens, central heating, air and vacuum systems, abundant electrical outlets, basements and bathrooms with heated floors, opulent owner's suites and, finally, enough storage!

4.  Greater safety and security. New homes can be equipped with the latest smoke detection systems, circuit breakers, sensors and alarms, as well as devices to assist elderly family members or those with disabilities.

5.  Lower maintenance, less hassle. With windows and trim that never require painting, in-ground lawn sprinklers, recycling centers and the like, new homes are easier to maintain.

6.  A healthier environment. New homes clearly reduce health risks. Asbestos, lead and formaldehyde are no longer used in building materials. Air exchangers and water purification systems now being built into new homes further improve the quality of the home environment.

7.  Stronger, quieter construction. New kinds of trusses for roofs and floors increase strength, and allow builders a much wider range of design possibilities. New materials also make for stronger and quieter roofs and floors than in older homes where board sheathing was used.

8.  An investment to appreciate. Studies show that new homes often appreciate as a percentage of original cost than older homes do. In some master planned communities, home values do even better because neighborhoods, streets, landscape and land uses are all planned in advance.

9.  Choose an ideal neighborhood. The location of your home &endash; the distance of the commute, proximity to shopping and recreation, the physical and social environment largely determines your home's value as well as your satisfaction.

10. Time is on your side. Conventional wisdom used to hold that building a new home took longer than finding an existing home. Not any more. To find the features they want in a home, today's buyer may take longer to make a buying decision than before and see many more homes than previously necessary.
