A proud builder of Energy Star qualified homes
While Designer Home Builders provides many custom features in our spec
homes, our specialty is working with you to design and build your custom
home. We can start with your plan, or with a simple concept or sketch
that we then flesh out based on your input, with as many design iterations
as needed to get your home precisely the way you want. You can review
our design capabililties and CAD system in more detail by viewing our
design process.

design process.
When you start researching your home, we would like to interview with
you. You can call previous homeowners for references and see previously
built homes as well as view our lots and lots in neighborhoods that then
develop a preliminary design that will show the basics: layout, room
sizes, basic features.
Once the basic design is modified to your satisfaction, we will meet at
potential building sites to discuss terrain and home location, as well as
covenants and architectural guidelines. As potential
home sites are narrowed down, we continue modifying
the plans, and start working on the exterior elevations.
Upon final lot selection, I will work with you to finalize
and detail out the plans that meet your needs & taste,
and take advantage of your lot's assets. Of course, you can have your
plans drawn by an architect, and then meet with us to review them.
Once the plans are approved, we will calculate the price, based on the lot
and detailed set of plans and specifications, including allowances. We
guarantee this firm price, so you don't have to worry about surprises
during construction or at closing.

You are welcome to visit the job site at any time to monitor and
participate in the construction of your home. Of course, you can also
contact Dena or me at any time. We also have accounts with most
suppliers in Columbia, and would be happy to set up additional accounts
if you choose to buy allowance items from different suppliers.
We average 7 months from ground breaking to move-in. This time
period includes weather delays, and assumes your choices are made
within their given time frame. A project schedule is developed and
maintained so you know when your decisions need to be made well in
advance.

Financing the project can be done one of two ways:
construction financing. On homes where we supply the land and financing and you pay the
balance in one sum at the end, we ask for a 5% deposit.
- Designer Home Builders provides the lot and financing, and adds construction interest
expense to the firm price. You make one payment at the completion of your home. - You provide the lot (or buy a lot from us) and financing, and we request bi-monthly
construction draws (payments based on invoiced work done) from your bank for work
completed.

Further, before a contract is signed, we will show you examples from
our homes or ask you to visit our recommended suppliers for all vision
of your finished home.
Allowance items include exterior materials (brick, stone, dryvit, siding),
floor coverings, kitchen and bath cabinets and tops, light fixtures,
appliances, built-ins, bathroom fixtures and accessories, paint, and
landscaping.
After a thorough review of the allowances, we sign the firm price
construction contract. Allowance overruns increase the price of the
home by the amount of the overrun, and when allowances are not fully
spent, the difference is credited to you and the price of the home
decreases.
