Choosing a Home Builder

 CUSTOM BUILDER VS. PRODUCTION BUILDER

With so many types of home building companies out there, it is a little tough to figure out who does what and who builds what.  Here is a quick run-down on how to tell the difference between custom and production home building companies.

 Custom home builders generally:

• Build on land you own.  Some custom builders also build on land they own.
• Build one-of-a-kind houses.  A custom home is a site-specific home built from a unique set of plans for a specific client.  Some custom builders may offer design/build services.
• Build single family homes.
• Tend to build high end homes.

Production home builders generally:

• Build on land they own.
• Tend to use stock plans, but usually offer a variety of plan choices and options.
• Build all types of housing-single-family, condos, town houses and rental properties.
• Are large-volume builders (those that build more than 25 homes a year).
• Generally build for all price points-entry level, move up, luxury, etc.
