Researching custom builders when you start on the journey of building your dream home is usually the second step after searching the internet for pictures to add to the home's vision board.
Looking at the builder's prior work and client reviews will help narrow down the builders who are reputable and can build homes in the style you like.
When selecting a builder for your custom home they will often give you a general cost per square foot to build. This is a good starting point to see how much house you can actually afford. But knowing what is included in their general cost per square foot is important and can help you narrow down your builder search even more.
