Before You Build Your Dream Home
Here is a quick reference list of what needs to be accomplished before you “break ground.”
- Locate your land-be sure the property will perk for septic!
- Have water meter installed, or well dug.
- Finalize your house design and blueprints.
- Collect your product information and literature.
(i.e.: appliances, fixtures, custom features, etc.) - Interview your prospective builder and talk to past clients.
- Select your builder. Be sure to verify Contractor’s License and Statute of Limitations.
- Finalize contract with Dan Huffman and Associates General Contractor.
- Review blueprint package with Dan Huffman and Associates. Make any needed changes, finalize product and material specifications.
- Ensure the construction documents include all necessary information, specs, stamps, etc. required by the local building department.
- Establish and agree upon a date of completion.
- Shop for financing and finalize financing package.
- Make sure your insurance company provides adequate builder’s risk coverage for fire and weather related damages during the construction process.
- Retrieve all necessary building permits.
(Builders who work as general contractors usually take responsibility for this.) - Invite friends to a ground breaking party and prepare yourself for months of challenge, excitement, impatience and most of all, great and fulfilled expectations!
