Learn all about the basics of the home buying process!

Finding the right residential builder to create your dream custom home is no easy process, but knowing what to expect along the way can help a great deal. Here is an outline of what you can expect during the home buying process with your preferred custom residential home builder, Rainbow Construction.

Before Construction Starts

The process begins by drawing up a contract that details the specifics of the purchase agreement and your custom home. You will sign the paperwork, and then the contract will go to our construction office to start the actual construction process. Once the contract goes through, you will get to make all of the fun decisions! You can choose the many different finishes from exterior colors, to flooring, to cabinet colors, to wall colors. As the final step before the construction process begins, you will have a pre-construction meeting with your sales representative and the construction superintendent.

Walkthroughs

To keep you abreast of everything going on at the construction site, there are two different walkthroughs to expect during the home buying process. You will complete a pre-drywall walkthrough after framing, and trade rough-ins are done and before any drywall has been installed. This walkthrough helps you to see the locations of all of your HVAC, electrical, and plumbing choices.

Next, you will have a pre-settlement walkthrough the day before your final closing date. You will have a chance to see the awesome features of your new home and get familiar with the layout. You can also note any other issues that need to be fixed.

Settlement

Afterwards, settlement will take place! You can contact your lender to confirm the loan amount and verify how much money you need to bring to settlement. You can contact all of the utility companies as well to ensure service is transferred to you and that everything is ready to go. Now you can move in and enjoy your home!
