Making the decision to build a luxury custom home for you and your family requires thorough investigation and planning. Finding the perfect homebuilder is an integral part of the custom home building process and the following traits are “must haves” when evaluating who you will trust with the creation of your future.1. PortfolioOne of the strongest indicators of a qualified custom home builder is their portfolio. Does the builder you’re considering have multiple completed homes in the South Florida area? Are the familiar with local building code, neighborhoods, architects and zoning regulations? Are the homes they have completed similar to what you want to see from your luxury custom home? All of these considerations can lead you to find a local builder with an impressive portfolio who can complete your home beyond your expectations.2. Team Is the builder you’re considering a rogue agent, or do they have a team of people that are accessible to you? Established builders won’t undertake a custom home project on their own. They will rely on their expertise as well as the support of a trusted team.3. Listening SkillsFinding a custom home builder that is not didactic, and who treats your vision with care of concern is paramount to achieving your goals. A good home builder is there to facilitate your dreams, not dismantle them, while still being able to inform you of what’s really feasible.4. Relationship MaterialJust because you’ve completed your house and have met all of your expectations doesn’t mean the relationship is over. A truly reliable custom home builder will not say goodbye just because your project has been completed. After having been through such a journey together, your builder will have established an intimate relationship with you that will last a lifetime.From the finishes in your bathroom to the layout of your child’s play-spaces – your builder knows every intimate detail about your home and therefore becomes a trusted member of your inner circle.If you’re considering whether or not to build a custom home in South Florida but don’t know where to start when it comes to finding a reliable builder, contact Landmark Custom Homes today.
