A question I come across a lot is people asking for tips or advice when planning a custom built home. While an architect or custom home builder is there to help along the way, I want to stress the importance of doing your research and being prepared before you even meet with a designer or builder.
Before you even reach out to a professional, take some time to determine the following:
Budget: How much money do you have that you feel comfortable putting towards this project. Figuring this out at the beginning will help make decisions easier down the road such as size and details.
Time Frame: Is there a date you want or need the home completed by? It's easy to find yourself in over your head if you don't have this date picked out.
Dimensions: Are you knocking down your current home and building on that property? Do you have a new plot of land available to build on? You should have this information figured out before you meet with anyone about your home.
Designing and building a custom built home is a long and complicated process, but being prepared with the 3 items above will help kick things off smoothly and lay the groundwork for plans down the road. If you have questions about planning custom built homes in Hattiesburg MS, contact a professional.
