Why build a custom home?

As the name implies, the process of building a custom home is less scripted because there are no pre-defined choices or menus to choose from. With custom homes:

The home can be built on land you own or land that you acquire.
You can supply a floor plan or commission a set of floor plans to be drawn from scratch.
You can work with a separate architect and builder — or with a design-build company that manages both the architectural design and the construction process.
You’ll be more involved in the process and have the opportunity to make many decisions.
You can pick from nearly any product in a category — within your budget, of course — rather than from a defined menu of choices.
