Designing to Your Budget
You’ve decided to move forward with building your dream home… a rustic handcrafted log home, a beautifully crafted timber frame home, or a custom home that combines elements from different mountain styles. You imagine its layout and size. You begin to visualize the architectural details that make this home uniquely you. As you close your eyes, you can even feel the warmth of the logs and timbers. There is no doubt, you have a definite idea of what your home should look like and how it should feel when you walk through the front door.
Much like the look and feel of your home, you probably have a budget in mind. Turning your dream home into a reality means more than just conceiving the perfect plan. It also means designing a home at a cost that you’re willing and able to pay, otherwise it really is just a dream. Knowing that cost is a reality, Mountain Architects designs your home to your budget making it possible to bring your dream home to life!
Creating Your Turnkey Estimate
Over the last twenty years, we’ve designed and built over two thousand homes worldwide. Using this experience and state-of-the-art estimating software, our Project Manager will work closely with your Mountain Architects designer to develop a categorized Turnkey Cost Estimate. As you adjust the layout, size and style of your plan, your PrecisionCraft team will assess the cost impact of these changes, update the turnkey cost estimate accordingly and communicate the cost estimate to you. For a more detailed look at how different factors impact the cost of your home, see our Total Home Advisor to the right.
Understanding the estimated cost of your home throughout the conceptual design phase gives you confidence in the feasibility of your project. We will not move forward until you feel completely comfortable with your design and its estimated cost.
