With so
many types of home building companies out there, it’s a little tough to
figure out who does what and who builds what. Here’s a quick run-down on how
to tell the difference between custom and production home building
companies.
Custom home
builders generally:
-
Build on land you own. Some custom builders also
build on land they own.
-
Build one-of-a-kind houses. A custom home is a
site-specific home built from a unique set of plans for a specific
client. Some custom builders may offer design/build services.
-
Build single-family homes.
-
Are generally small-volume builders (those that build
25 or fewer homes a year).
-
Tend to build high-end homes.
