Questions To Ask Your Home Builder

September 1, 2023 5:33 pm Published by Leave your thoughts

You can ask your home builders a variety of questions before, during, and after a home-building project. These questions can help provide clarity and a seamless construction process. Here are some questions to consider asking your home construction company:

How Long Have You Been in the Home Building Business?

Experience in the home building industry matters because a builder with a longer track record may better understand the construction process. A builder who understands this process should understand local regulations and other challenges you may face during the construction project. A longer track record can also give you an idea of the type of homes they build and how successful they have been.

Established home builders should also have references and examples of their past construction projects. Ask for a list or link to their recent builds. You can view a home builder’s portfolio to make sure that they can complete the project you seek. At Parks Home Construction, we offer a gallery of past projects and current homes for sale or rent for our potential customers to view.  

Can You Provide a Detailed Timeline and Costs Estimate? 

Ask your home builder to provide you with a detailed estimate of costs. An estimate should outline all costs involved in the construction project. These costs can include labor, materials, building permits, and other expenses.

You can also ask for an estimate of the project’s timeline. By understanding the expected timeline, you can plan accordingly and manage your move-in date expectations. Be sure to ask your builder how they prefer to communicate with you. They can call, text, or email you to keep you updated on your home’s progress or inform you of any unexpected delays.

What Features Are Typically Included in Your Home Builds?

To get an idea of what is typically included in your home builder’s construction plans, ask if they offer any standard features. This could include specifications for kitchen and bathroom designs, ceiling heights, and flooring types. Some of our standard features at Parks Home Construction include low-emissivity vinyl windows, custom kitchen and bathroom cabinets, granite countertops, and ceiling fans in all bedrooms and living rooms. We also provide 30-year composite shingles and a 10-year home warranty.

Can You Provide a Breakdown of the Payment Schedule?

By understanding the payment structure and schedule, you can make sure to plan accordingly and avoid missing payments. At Parks Home Construction, we offer several financing options for you to choose from. Your builder can provide information on which payment option may work best for your construction project. You can also ask your builder if there is an option to add a warranty to their work. Ask about a coverage period and what is included in the warranty for different components of the home.

Why Should I Choose Your Home Builders?

Asking these questions can help you make an informed decision when choosing a home builder. At Parks Home Construction, we provide clear communication, a solid work history, financing options, and more.
