Note: All time and cost estimates are good for 45 days.


Custom home design fees:
Purchasing a custom drawn home plan ensures you will get the exact home design you want with a floor plan that will satisfy all your specific needs and desires. Typically, our fee to design your custom plan will range between 1% and 2.5% of the total construction cost of your new home. Your custom plan fee is determined based on the complexity of the design combined with the information you will provide us. For example: For your own custom home that would cost $250,000.00 to build, the cost for YOUR custom designed home plans will start at $2500.00.


Your custom home design will include up to two (2) preliminary drafts of the home plan at no extra charge. (Any additional revisions requested by client will be charged at $125.00 per hour.)


Payment and Time Schedule
Fees for your custom home plans will be collected in three equal payments:

Retainer 1 (1/3): Due prior to beginning preliminary drawings.
Retainer 2 (1/3): Due upon approval of preliminary drawings and prior to beginning the
                             detailed working drawings.
Retainer 3 (1/3): Due upon completion of working drawings and prior to shipping plans.

Any additional revisions requested by client will be charged at $125.00 per hour.
Balance: If a balance is remaining, the amount is due prior to delivery of goods.



Custom home design process:

• Homeowner will sign a home design contract.
• Our custom design team will provide the first draft of your preliminary design for your review within three (3) weeks of receiving your first retainer and will reflect all of the items submitted on your original request.
• Up to two (2) preliminary drafts will be submitted to you prior to detailing the final construction documents for house plan. After the second preliminary draft, additional design requests or changes not included in the original request will be charged independently at an hourly rate of $125.00 or a flat quoted rate.
• After you have verified and approved all the preliminary drawings and we have received your second retainer, your custom home plan will be detailed and completed within an additional three (3) weeks. Additional design requests or changes not included in the original request will be charged independently at an hourly rate of $125.00 or a flat quoted rate.
• You will be notified at the time your plan is completed. At that time, your final payment will be due in full prior to shipment.

**NOTE: All approximated timeframes presume you, the customer, will respond/provide feedback in a timely manner. Any delayed responses will prolong the approximated completion time.**


Additional notes about building codes and engineering:
Custom home plans are drawn to meet national building codes. We do not guarantee they will meet all local building requirements or building codes influenced by local geographic or climactic factors. It is the responsibility of the homeowner or builder to ensure these house plans comply with city, county, municipal and/or state/provincial building codes. Additionally, custom house plans will not be sealed or stamped by an engineer or architect. It is the responsibility of the homeowner or builder to hire a local professional to review and seal or stamp the plans if required by the building department. This must be done by an engineer or architect licensed in the state/province where the home is to be built.


Your final custom home plan blueprints will be emailed to you in PDF format (5 printed sets or CAD file option available upon request.) The blueprints WILL INCLUDE:

a)
Floor Plans: House plan drawings indicating dimensions for construction
b) Roof Plan: Drawings indicating roof slopes and unique conditions
c) Exterior Elevations: Drawings showing appearance and the types of materials used for the exterior finish and trim
d) Building Sections: Drawings cut through important locations in the structure
e) Construction Details: Drawings showing specific construction of building elements at a large scale
f) Kitchen and bath elevations
g) Electrical Plans: Basic electrical layout (suggested locations of fixtures, switches and outlets)
h) Foundation Plan: Dimensioned drawings describing specific foundation conditions for the structure
i) A building license: A single-use license for construction at one location only
(NOTE: If design is to be used at subsequent locations, a discounted re-use license is required and available upon request.)
