Your Lot

Bery Homes offers a Build-On-Your-Lot Program

Bery Homes has strong experience and expertise in building on a customer’s land. Many builders specialize in building on improved lots in master-planned communities that already have the infrastructure in place (water, gas, electrical, sewer, etc.). Other builders specialize in building on land that requires improvement. Some builders do both.
Bery Homes offers a variety of floor plans and can adapt a floor plan to the topography of your lot.
Bery Homes has enough buying power to ensure you receive the best prices for high quality goods. Such savings are passed on to the homebuyer, including purchase price of appliances, light fixtures, and flooring.
Bery Homes will stand behind and service the home. Bery Builders has a good warranty program, which

includes a ten year warranty on certain aspects of the structural integrity of the home.

PHASE 1
Meet with a construction lender for a pre-approval. The Berys will work closely with you and the architect to provide a preliminary estimate to build your dream home. This estimate will be based on features you prefer or from what you have seen in one of our other homes. These meetings will result in an initial draft design as well as revised drafts until the home is perfect.

PHASE 2
Once the Draft Design is complete, we can then focus on the logistics. We will review with you the Draft Designs of the House plan and the Lot Plan to compile/review/refine a detail list of the major items used in the construction of your home.

PHASE 3
You will finalize the contract documents and together we will review and approve the pricing. Once the final decisions are made, we sign the contract!

PHASE 4
The Engineer and Architect will then be authorized to start preparing their plans for our Building Permit Submission Package. The Homeowner and the Selections Coordinator will start visiting showrooms and finalizing their selections.

PHASE 5
The Building Team and Homeowners will meet with for a Pre-Build Meeting. Any elements discovered in Phase 4 will be addressed now along with schedules and anticipated milestones.

PHASE 6
Construction Times range from 8 months to 10 months, depending on the size of the home.

And there are other considerations as well, including a complete understanding of the easements, zoning laws, property line restrictions, and architecture guidelines and review processes. Many build-on-your-lot buyers find few issues to resolve with a prospective lot, but doing your homework in advance is nonetheless wise.
