Benefits of Building a Custom Vancouver Home

2p_shutterstock_136075496.jpgBuying a home is a significant and exciting milestone in life. Finding the perfect house, putting in an offer, and making it through escrow is gratifying. But no matter how wonderful a home seems when you look at it, unless you build your own custom home, you’ll always find yourself compromising. Building a custom home is a big undertaking, but the investment of time and energy is worth the final result. When your home is complete, it will have been designed with your specific needs in mind and will be an investment you can enjoy for years to come. 

Each Room to Your Specifications 

If you are the one driving the specifications of the design, you are also the one who decides how big your kitchen will be, whether you’ll have an open plan or distinct divisions, and how big the master bathroom will be. You’ll work with an architect and contractors to see your dreams realized in each room. Even if you’ve never had a role in the building of a home before, with their assistance you’ll be able to make things just perfect. The skilled and experienced people you’ll work with will help you to understand the limitations that may come up and they’ll have suggested solutions that can only come from people with experience. 

Your Choice of Finishes and Accents 

Rather than trying to remodel an older home to match your lifestyle and design aesthetic, designing a custom home allows you to design and choose the features and finishes that you want.  Moving away from “pre-fab” homes, custom home builders give you the options of custom cabinet, counter, floor, windows, etc installations. 

Enjoy the Process 

The time you spend learning about how homes are designed and built will be valuable and interesting. You’ll find yourself wanting to become more and more involved each step of the way. As more options are revealed, you’ll be amazed to find yourself understanding things about home ownership that you may never have learned otherwise. You’ll choose the type of water heater that you really want. The kitchen sink will be practical for you and your family. And you can build closet space into your rooms - or not! The choices will all be up to you if you choose to build your own custom home.
