What You Should Know Before Building Your Home

As you know, there is a great deal of new construction in the Portland and southwest Washington area. In fact, there is so much that keeping up with demand is difficult. 

With construction up 50% from last year, there are a few things we think you should know before starting a new custom built home.

The first and most important thing is planning your budget. This will allow you to decide what part of your custom home is most important to you, whether it be faucets and outlets or cabinets and woodwork. 

The next step is deciding whether or not you want to hire an agent. 

If you do it yourself, you have to pick your lot, architect, and builder. You should be sure to get numbers from each, make sure that they have experience so you can feel confident going forward.

If you want help, make sure you hire an agent that has experience and a working team.
