Benchmarks in the Custom Home Process 3. Design and BudgetingDesign and budgeting go hand in hand. We will have extensive discussions during the 30 day lot reservation period during which we will establish a preliminary design of your home, determine its anticipated size, discuss your desired level of finish, discuss appropriate allowances and estimate its anticipated cost. Before we engage a professional architect to begin the formal drawings for your home, we want you to be sure that you are prepared to increase your investment in this building opportunity. Because we are designing a custom home suited to your personal tastes and needs, you are expected to make an architectural deposit equal to the anticipated total cost for your architectural drawings. This architectural deposit is not refundable as it will be used to compensate the architect for his services. However, when the plans are complete, you own them whether or not you choose to proceed with the actual construction of the home. We will offer you several options for architectural services but we will specifically recommend an architect who best suits your personality, budget, time constraints, etc. You may also recommend your own architect; however, you will be assuming more responsibility for the performance of an architect that you recommend. We have found our architectural references to provide cost effective building plans with great design. Our architectural references are also very familiar with the unique requirements of the various municipalities in which we specialize. Throughout the architectural design phase we will continue to monitor the architectural design and update your anticipated costs. If we become concerned that you may be exceeding your desired budget, we will ask the architect to make the necessary revisions or identify certain items as optional so that they can be considered further. If you use one of our architectural references, your final drawings are generally complete within 30 to 60 days of our initial meeting with the architect.
