The final scenario is a custom built home. These higher-end homes generally take more time and effort to create and build. At Kohles Homes our goal is to listen to our customer's thoughts and ideas.
Prior to drafting of the blueprint, the customer and Kohles Homes determine a building site based on the customers needs. The ideas are then discussed for feasibility and costs. Typically, the plan drafting phase is a 3-step process. The 1st step being the concept plan which is a combination of all the initial ideas, total square footage, elevation and other details are pulled together. Our customer then reviews this plan privately and incorporates further ideas and questions for the 2nd meeting.
At the second meeting the customer and builder further discusses feasibility of any new ideas and costs. Kohles Homes then generates the 2nd drawing. The home plan now is nearly complete. Kohles Homes recommends one last meeting with the homeowner to review all floor plans which now incorporate all elevations and details of the home.
The 3rd draft generates the final draft and at this meeting the final decisions on all the specifications that are part of the home are discussed. This final meeting is also a review of the final plans and specs that will become part of the contract for the new home. A contract review is discussed as well as the customer's time to start and appropriate completion time. If at that time all of the customer's questions about the project are answered the contract is signed and the customer provides the security deposit check. The process from the initial meeting to contract is approximately 6 weeks.
The construction schedule varies based on many factors. The time of year, when we start, weather conditions and other factors could affect the schedule. Most homes will fit a 6-month total construction schedule. A general outline of this schedule is generated prior to construction to allow for the homeowners to select the allowance items within the time frame of the construction schedule. Kohles Homes will oversee and facilitate all facets of this process.
We look forward to working with you on whatever construction method that works for you. Thank you for your interest in Kohles Homes.
