Custom HomesNot all major builders are eager to make modifications to their model floor plans. But, Hartz Homes cannot think of anything better than living in a home that has been designed specifically for your taste and lifestyle. After all, it’s your dream home! Hartz Homes knows that there are a lot of stumbling blocks for custom changes put up by other builders. Hartz Homes has taken these concerns away to make it easy for you to get the exact home you want…and deserve. Let’s look at some of the common concerns about building a semi-custom home that Hartz Homes has removed, paving the way to your prefect home!

You do not need to know about design

Many home buyers are often intimidated by building a semi-custom home because they are afraid they have to do all the designing by themselves. On the contrary, when working with Hartz Homes, you do not have to be an expert designer when making changes to floorplans – that is what Hartz Homes is there for. You can be as involved in the designing process as you wish. All you need to do is have an idea of what type of changes you’d like. Bring in Pinterest boards, magazine clippings, or even sketches and your sales associate, design center manager and construction team can turn that vision into reality.

There are no hidden costs

Another common concern about making changes to model floorplans is that they will cost more than what’s budgeted for. At Hartz Homes, that is not the case. Straightforward pricing sheets explain exactly what you’ll get for your money, so there’s never any question about what you’re paying, and what you’ll get. You’ll know upfront what it will cost, making it easy to work with a lender.

The changes usually don’t cause a longer construction period

Many major builders today have partially constructed wall sections delivered to the work site. These home designs are pre-set, and changes take time to “re-build” if they can be done at all.  However, Hartz Homes “stick-builds” the houses at the site. Walls are put up board by board, allowing for changes to be made usually without a delay in construction time. Once the changes are decided upon, the building process is typically the same as any other home, Hartz Homes is just building to your exact specifications.

Communication is key during the process

Building your dream home is exciting and Hartz Homes aims to take away as much stress as possible. Hartz Homes believes that semi-custom building can’t exist without quality communication. You know up-front what the changes will be and what they will cost. During the construction process, your sales associate will regularly offer updates on the status of your new home. The number one focus of Hartz Homes has always been communication and efficiency. Hartz Homes takes great care to ensure you never feel out of the loop while your home is being built.
