Custom Home Building
In Las Vegas

Long ago, it was more common for people to build their own homes with materials they sourced on their own. It was also often done cheaply not to drain savings or be too difficult on those involved in building. In fact, some were even known to lend a helping hand rather than hire someone else that they had to pay with a lot of money.

Today, many people consider hiring a contractor instead of building themselves as homebuilders have become experts at making fantastic homes aesthetically and interiorly while still staying within budget due to efficient coordination and management of tradesmen and suppliers. They are skilled at coordinating all the different trades to work together to fit in with one another.

What Is A Custom Home?

A custom home is a house constructed specifically for the needs of its owner. In addition to designing everything from floor plans to landscaping themselves, homeowners have the added benefit of having their homes built where they want them with materials that suit their tastes best. Although prices for building custom homes tend to be much higher than those for mass-produced houses, people who buy these luxury properties often feel that getting exactly what they want makes it worth the price tag.

If you plan to construct a personalized house, you must consider many factors before starting the project. What type of house will it be? What style? Do you want a modern home or something more traditional? Once these questions are answered, real planning will begin.

Factors Affecting The Cost Of Building A Custom Home

One of the usual questions asked by people planning to build a custom home is, “How much does it cost?”

As expert contractors, the truth is that it depends on many different factors. These dictate the cost of your new home.

Budget

How much money you plan to spend on your dream home determines everything about your house. So before anything else, determine how much you are willing to spend and stick with it, regardless of how demanding or stressful the process becomes. You can always change your mind later.

Building a custom dream home is expensive and requires a lot of patience and time. If you’re on a strict budget, you’ll probably have to settle for fewer features than initially envisioned, even if there’s money still left in the budget after construction has begun. Many things come up during construction that will require re-evaluating the initial design plan, and sometimes certain items must be cut for practical reasons. When this happens, don’t despair. It only means that more cool stuff may be added into the house somewhere down the line since some of those original “essentials” aren’t really all that essential anymore.

Location

The cost of construction for a home varies by region. For example, it costs more to build in California than in Kansas. The colder the area you choose, the more money you’ll save on heating during those cold winter months, and vice versa with warmer climates. But remember, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. In short, the money you save on energy bills can easily be offset by initial construction costs if you’re not careful in building your home where there are large trees or big hills blocking sunlight that could result in a much higher energy bill every month for the life of your home.

Location can also affect what kinds of materials are available to use, which affects your dream house’s overall appearance and aesthetics.

Size

The size of your custom home affects how much it costs. But everyone’s idea of “big” is different. That’s why this factor gets complicated. How big do you want? This may seem like an easy question to answer, but take note that the more space you have, the bigger your lawn will be, which can mean more landscaping, sprinklers, etc. The size of your home also affects what kinds of heating and cooling equipment are necessary to maintain a comfortable ambient temperature throughout your house effectively. If you’re building an extra-large custom home, then chances are you’ll want extra-large appliances too, which costs even more money.

Square Footage Means Money

The more square footage you build, the higher the construction cost will officially be for your new home without fail. But again, this factor becomes complicated since there’s no way around it. If you want a large custom house, it must be big enough for all the features you want. But there are always exceptions to this rule.

For instance, you can cut costs by building up instead of out. This means that if you’re looking at a one or two-story home, then it’s not going to be as expensive as a three or four-story home. Custom homes with less square footage cost more per square foot.

Extra Space Costs Extra Money

If you really need that extra space, expect to pay for it in monthly utility bills unless your home is built with a lot of natural light. A big house means more square footage being heated and cooled, which costs more money than a small one.

Frequently Asked Questions

For new home construction, there is usually no pre-determined sequence of tasks. It depends on the availability of particular trades at any given time and the homeowner's individual preferences. In general, most contractors follow steps, including site preparation, foundation, construction, framing, roofing installation, etc.

Most people don't think about this, but planning department approvals require a structural engineer (completed plans usually suffice) before building any home three stories tall or higher, or 35 feet wide or wider. Plans usually suffice for homes less than 35 feet wide. Keep in mind, though, that engineered plans can significantly delay your project due to the additional time needed to satisfy permitting requirements.

The main thing you'll be considering is whether or not your plans fall in line with local zoning requirements, tax laws, and other regulations regarding building size and distance from neighboring properties. Another thing to think about is the kind of climate you live in since this will affect how large your house can be or whether or not it has a basement or crawl space. Think about flooring materials, window treatments, appliances, lighting fixtures, and other decorative touches when designing your dream home.
