Including investment and feasibility are explored. Discussing indepth about the building process, buget, timelines, locations of the project, house design and what to expect during the the building proccess. We review your design ideas and preferences for interior and exterior finishes, home automation technology, site planning and financing considerations.  You should also establish a ‘ballpark budget’ so that you can begin to narrow down your options.   

During this phase, you will work in collaboration with your Realtor, the builder, and an engineer.  Your Realtor will help you with the lot search and selection process to evaluate desired location and size of the lot.  Wells Home builders and the engineer can help determine the most effective use of land and compatible design with the budget.  A feasibility study should be included as a contingency in your lot purchase copntract.
