Share to

When thinking about the end result of your dream home, it’s also important to think about all of the steps you have to take to get there. Lions Den Construction produces Custom Built Homes in Toronto and our team is here today to discuss some of the most critical steps when planning a custom home build. Having a plan and a checklist for your custom home builder will make challenges easy to overcome.

Purchase the Lot

If we are starting from the beginning, the first step to a custom home build is to purchase the plot of land you wish to build on. Choose a location that is attractive for your vision, layout, and budget.

Obtain Financing

When choosing to build a custom home, it’s always recommended to speak to a trusted advisor to seek information about a mortgage. Buying land and developing it can often change what a standard mortgage looks like.

Hire a Custom Home Builder

Hiring the right custom home builder can make all the difference in your project. The proper team can turn your vision into a reality and ensure that the project remains on time and within budget. Finding a team with proper communication skills is also an essential component.

Brainstorm Luxurious Home Upgrades

What do you want to see in your custom home? Heated flooring? Built-in appliances? Wine cellar? Whatever ideas come to mind, create a list of upgrades that would like to see in your project. Luxury upgrades can add comfort, joy, and a high-end feel to your home.

Prepare for Construction

Once the home plan has been created and blueprints have been approved, the building team will begin construction. You can expect land preparation, the pouring of the foundation, the creation of the structure, and so on. The home will be built based on your vision and wants.

Schedule a Site Visit 

While the construction is taking place, make time to visit the site a few times so that contractors can walk you through, explain, and show you what’s happening and where you are at. Being onsite at these visits is crucial so that you can have some reassurance in the project and see where you’re at.

Final Inspection

Once the custom home builders give you the notice that they have completed their work, it’s time that they take you through a final inspection. This inspection gives you the chance to voice your opinion on anything outstanding within the project.
