At first, house hunting sounded like a lot of fun - and then this happened…
You’d get excited every time a notification popped up from your listing app - a home in your budget was up for sale, and the photos looked amazing!
But when you visited in person, the property or the location was a let-down about 80% of the time.
Plus, with you and your partner’s conflicting schedules, you didn’t really have the luxury to do neighborhood drive-bys that often.
At some point, you saw some homes you liked - but the speed at which they went off the market made your head spin.
You did get a couple of offers in there - but they were all rejected.
And in the end, it felt like even your realtor was starting to get annoyed.
Then someone suggested: “Why don’t you just build a home? Building is cheaper than buying a fixer-upper in this part of the country anyway. Besides, you’d start with a blank slate - fresh wiring and plumbing, proper insulation, no bidding war.”
Major light bulb moment.
But you had NO idea that getting custom-designed home plans could cost that much
“Excuse me, HOW much for 4 design meetings and a couple of concepts?”
- You: before fainting from the quote that cool architecture firm your coworker suggested
Depending on where you live, getting custom plans drawn up for your dream home can cost anywhere between $40,000-$50,000…
And let's not forget the costs for basic interior architecture design, including doors, fixtures, floors, molding, and cabinetry, can go up to $30,000…
AKA: money you can save or pour back into your build to level it up.
Then you did some research and found that you could get pre-designed home plans at a fraction of the cost!
Now to find some floor plans that actually help you envision what your dream home could look like from the inside out.
Because waiting 6 months to determine whether you actually made the right investment? Absolutely excruciating.
