Purchasing a new home is exciting, but building your home from scratch is a dream come true. Working directly with a home builder can be an enlightening experience that saves money while also being rewarding. Now that you have decided to build your home from scratch, you will need to choose what type of builder you prefer for the job. Will you hire a custom home builder or a production builder to transform your new home dreams into reality?
There are many differences between hiring a custom builder and a production builder. One of the main differences is the cost per square foot. Production builders have a more affordable rate, but you get less leeway in your design. Toronto custom home builders like Lion’s Den Construction have a higher rate, but the benefits are profound.
Production Homes vs. Custom Homes
Production builders build a large block of new houses at once. These homes are built from a common plan and homeowners are only allowed a small variation of personalization options. The options provided come from a set list, such as flooring choices, layout or trim. When you work with a custom home builder you have much more control over how your home will look and its final layout. You will work with not only the homebuilder, but also the architect to craft a truly unique home that fits your specific needs and personality.
Master of your Custom Home
When you buy a new home from a production builder, the layout and features may be nice but it won’t suit your needs exactly. Purchasing a home from a custom builder allows you to be a true master of your creation. You will be able to craft a space that not only fits your needs and your specific lifestyle, but also one that reflects your personality.
Working with a custom builder to design your home allows you to have a direct hand in the planning and construction stages. Your builder will give you dedicated attention to all of your needs, desires, and dreams. This also means that while others may be waiting for their landscaping to be completed altogether, you will get to have a fully finished home without the extra wait.
Control Your Location
Choosing your lot has a lot to do with how your home will be constructed and the final aesthetics of the property once it has been built. With a custom home, you have more control over exactly where your home will be built. With the help and experience of your custom builders, your participation in the design process will help you bring your dreams to life. Custom home builders are with you 100% of the way and will always allow you to be involved as much or as little as you prefer.
