WHY BUILD INSTEAD OF BUY?
Get What You Want
Building new gives you full control of every aspect - location, style, size, layouts, colors, energy-efficiency and finishes.
Our Sales Consultants and Design Coordinators work with you step-by-step to ensure your new home, inside and out, is designed to fit your life.
It's Fast
While it can be hard to beat the immediacy of moving into an existing home, we think it's worth the short wait for your own new, custom home.
Brookside's typical completion time is 9 months from the time ground has been broken - a small time to wait for a home perfectly fit for your life!
It's a Better Value
Existing homes can be money pits, with homeowners spending unplanned thousands to repair or replace items. Building new means fewer unplanned and costly repairs.
Brookside Homes' high-quality products are built to last and save you money, backed by a 1-year warranty on materials/workmanship and a 12-year structural defect warranty.
OUR BUILDING PROCESS
We make building easy!
Our team of professionals will work with you and offer guidance every step of the way.
Consultation and Home Design: Our Sales Consultants and in-house Design Coordinators are attentive listeners and will work with you to select the home plan and features that best fit your life.
Determine Pricing: No one wants to receive a large, unexpected bill during or after construction. Brookside Homes gives you pricing peace of mind from the start with our very detailed, no hidden cost Price Quotation. All items included in the build are clearly referenced and association with an accurate dollar amount – no risky handwritten pricing or high-level, consolidated descriptions making you guess as to what is/is not included and its cost.
Pre-construction Site Visit: We’ll work with you to schedule a Pre-construction Site Visit with Owner Steve Wagner, or another Brookside Homes representative, on your lot to confirm site work costs and determine best location for the home on your lot.
Obtain Financing: With pricing in-hand, you can obtain financing for your home from your financial institution. Don’t yet have a financial institution or want to shop around for the best rates? We’re happy to share with you a list of fine, local institutions we’ve worked with previously.
Sign Contract: Once your financing is in order and you’re good to go with your Home Plan Design and Price Quotation, we’ll all sign the build contract so we can get started on building your home.
Obtain Permits: Once you obtain the various permits (e.g., building, water, sewer, etc.) needed according to your various county, township and location requirements, site work can commence. Questions about completing permit applications? Don’t worry, we can help answer them!
