Investor Construction

How We Help Individual Lot and Property Owners


We Also Build for Individuals and Families

For select lot and home owners we will build your property at builder and investor pricing. Although we traditionally build for other real estate industry professionals such as builders, realtors and real estate investment groups we can build for you just like we build for individual investors. Our portfolio and quality speaks for itself. Even if you have already talked with another builder our low cost, flat fee pricing we charge to builders we do the same with individual buyers. We still build the exact same high quality homes for individuals as we do for the other builders that we build for so you know you are getting a true custom home but at builder and investor pricing.

Find A Lot You Like, We Will Build On It. You Are Not Locked Into The Builders Lots

Have an area you want to build a house? Many builders will buy lots and you are stuck having to choose that 1 builder who owns the lot you may want or the land developer only sells lots to builders and not individual buyers. Another option would be to buy the lot yourself and then have us build for you. With this method you avoid the builders markup on BOTH the lot and construction. Any construction costs and/or financing costs of construction you might be able to write off instead of the builder who gets to write those costs off and still marks up the cost of the house to cover those costs. Buying your own lot and having us build for you eliminates that builder advantage many home buyers are unaware of.

One of the hottest trends in residential home construction is what is called "infill" lot construction. These are either unbuilt lots in existing older neighborhoods, or they are existing homes in these older neighborhoods that can be torn down and a new home built on that existing lot. This is a typical approach for many custom home builders. Most custom home builders are not looking to build in large subdivisions and having to compete with large production builders. Instead custom home builders will seek out older neighborhoods that have become trendy and popular and look for homes at discounted pricing they can tear down and rebuild new homes on those older lots. For many buyers this would normally require waiting for a builder to do the tear down and build and then purchase the home from the builder with all of the builders markup. However, with Investor Construction, we allow you to bring a lot to us and we will build for you. For buyers they can avoid the lot markups from builders and they can negotiate the sales price of the existing home to be torn down.

Need House Plans? We Can Help You Find a Plan Designer or Architect

Building a house can be overwhelming, and quite frankly, that is why many home buyers just decide to buy a house already completed from a home builder. But for those home buyers who have both the time to wait on construction AND want to be a part of designing their house then we can help you. You may have a plan designer or architect you want to use or we have a list of those we have worked with. Getting financing arranged, purchasing a lot and finding a plan designer or architect are the first 3 steps in the construction process.

We Will Show You Ways To Cut Costs And Still Get The Same Look

Buying a new home from a home builder already completed you are stuck with their design selections from fixtures to colors to exterior design choices. Another common option is you find a lot you want but a builder already owns that lot and that builder will TYPICALLY give you a dollar per sq foot budget to work with. Anything beyond that cost the builder just increases the price of the house or if the home buyer is financing the construction then the lender has to approve the additional expenses or the home buyer has to come out of pocket for the additional expenses. Our model is slightly different. Since we have a flat fee, lost cost model we CAN give you a budget to work with -OR- we can show you how to cut costs from the initial house design all the way thru construction costs, fixture selections, appliances, etc and there are many ways to achieve the SAME LOOK but at different levels of cost. As a home buyer you may choose to reduce or cut in 1 area but then put that money into a different area. This is where we can help you out and make the process a little easier to understand.

City Demo/Rebuild Programs With Tax or Cash Back Incentives

Many homeowners are unaware certain cities offer a demo/rebuild program that gives the LOT OWNER either tax incentives or cash back when the lot owner buys an older house, tears it down, and rebuilds a new house. Unknown to home buyers the builders take advantage of this and THE BUILDER is the one who gets those advantages - and still marks the house up with full profit. Now, imagine another scenario where YOU THE HOMEOWNER buys the lot and we build for you. Now you, the homeowner, not only get the rebates or tax credits from the city, but with our flat fee, discounted construction fees we will help you build your house without all the builder markup that other home builders charge. For homeowners it can add up to huge cost savings on having their home built.
