Building a Custom Home

The decisions that happen before the first footing matter most.

Pre-construction

Lot evaluation, design coordination, and budget development happen together. A plan drawn before the site is understood often has to be redrawn.

Budget structure

  • Site work — clearing, grading, driveway, utilities, septic
  • Allowances for finishes, clearly defined
  • Contingency for the unknown
  • Professional fees

Permits and inspections

Lincoln County handles building permits and inspections for unincorporated Denver. Lakefront projects may also involve Duke Energy approvals.

Warranty

Ask what is covered, for how long, and how claims are handled.
