One of the most overlooked costs in a new construction home? Site work.

When budgeting for your build, costs are going to fall into four buckets:

Land ~ the actual lot that your home will sit on
Site Work ~ preparing the property for construction
Financing ~ construction loans, interest, etc.
Construction ~ the home itself!

Own a lot that might be a good candidate for a new home? Let us give you a feasibility report to lay out all your options.

What if your only two choices didn’t have to be custom builders or production builders?

For some people, the idea of designing a custom home is exciting until they actually realize how many decisions have to be made. Others have never even considered the possibility of a custom home because of the cost, and get stuck with the cookie-cutter production builders designs. At Character Companies, we believe there’s a way to marry the two that brings out the best of both worlds. The result? Thoughtfully curated semi-custom homes with more predictability and less decision fatigue.

Sound like your predicament? Our homes might just be your solution.
