Designing & Building Your Custom Dream Home: How to Create an Experience You'll Love to Remember (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780578663203)

The custom home building experience is, for many, a once-in-a-lifetime event. It can be a true reflection of your success and lifestyle. We believe the experience is most enjoyable when you understand the entire process and key elements before you select a builder and begin building a custom home. So, our primary goal in writing this book is to educate and inform you on the the factors that we have found essential to creating that memorable, one-of-a-kind experience.

Over the years, we have been honored to work with hundreds of clients to create a one-of-a-kind custom home building experience. We believe that the experience should be memorable - one that is fondly reflected on for many years, as you live, work, entertain, raise a family, and even retire in your home. So, our primary goal in writing this book is to educate and inform you on the critical elements that we have found essential to creating that memorable, one-of-a-kind experience.

We have seen the great, the good, the bad, and the ugly side of the construction industry. And, unfortunately, there are far too many horror stories of what can go wrong with the custom home building process. We have actually 'rescued' several families in these situations. These stories are not meant to create fear but to convey the importance of making informed decisions and to help you avoid being one of those stories.

We believe it's important for you to understand the entire process and key factors before you select a builder and begin building a custom home so, we provide many examples in this book to illustrate these concepts. These concepts may be obvious to some, but for most people, we hope this book can provide you insight that can save you considerable time, money, resources, and yes, even tears.

This comprehensive and valuable resource can provide you insight to save you considerable time, money, and even heartbreak. More importantly, we believe this knowledge can also provide you a custom home building experience that is fondly reflected on for many years, as you live, work, entertain, raise a family, and even retire in your home.
