While many custom home builders have draftsmen to draw houses plans, what most of them lack is a sense of singular design and seamless coordination between the entire building team. We have highly recommended contractors to build your home, or you can bring your own contractor to the team. Either way, we at Legacy Design Group work closely with the contractor throughout the entire design and construction process, guaranteeing affordability and absolute satisfaction.

Greg and Geoff bring years of experience in smart and stylish architectural conception and are your personal consultants throughout the design phase of your new home. Our philosophy at Legacy Design Group is every home is a "custom" home. "Custom"; however, doesn't have to mean expensive and overpriced. With Legacy Design Group, "custom" means every client gets to be highly involved in the design process ensuring the novelty, individuality and especially the affordability of their new home. Whether you're looking for an indoor basketball court or you have a really tight budget you need to work within, we can help make your wants and needs a reality.

Although we have beautiful home plans in stock, with most of the people we work with, we encourage our clients to do some research on floor plans and exteriors that they like. While we've had many people come to us with one specific floor plan that might require a few personal touches, we often adapt up to three or four floor plans into one perfect plan, or work completely from hand-drawn sketches. Custom truly means anything is possible.

So whether it is a "starter home" or a "final home", let Legacy Design Group furnish you with the most unbelievable custom home designing and building experience available.

Financing: It's important to figure out what kind of a budget you have to work with before we start the design process. Contact one of our preferred lenders from the "Additional Contacts" section of our website or go with a Lender of your choosing..

Designing: This is the part where you bring all of your ideas to the table and we the project starts to take shape. Along the way, there are usually a couple of revision cycles that we'll go through. We also like to have the contractor involved during this phase to ensure we're designing within your budget. As soon as it's refined to your liking, full construction plans are created. A Structural Engineer is then hired to size all of the beams, joists and trusses for submittal to the city.

Building Permit: After the plans are submitted into the city, they are looked over by plan inspectors to make sure that they are compliant with the latest local and national building codes. This takes somewhere between 2-6 weeks, depending on the city. Revisions are then made to the plans as requested by the city if needed.

Coordination: While the plans are in the city, the Contractor will meet with you and go over the final bid and cost breakdown on the house. You'll also be able to refine many specific things such as carpet and counter selections at this point. Your Contractor will also help you get all the necessary information that you'll need for obtaining financing of the project.

Construction: As soon as a building permit is obtained, the contractor can then start the actual construction of the home. This phase usually takes between 3 and 6 months, depending on the size of the project. During construction, you can be as little or as heavily involved as you want while your house comes to life.

Closing: When the home is complete and the final walk-thru has been done, your Lender sets up the closing with a Title Company and the permanent financing comes into play. As soon as the appropriate documents are signed, you are the official owner of the unique home that you helped design.
