Our Process

Step #1: Initial Meeting

At our first meeting, we’ll talk with you about the best location of your future home that meets your daily needs. We can help find the best lot to start building your dream home on. We make sure to take the tie to really understand exactly what you need for your new home. This includes the style, layout, functionality, and overall look and feel. All of our consultations of free of charge.

Step #2: Meeting With Architect

Once your location is selected and your initial specifications are identified, we’ll organize a meeting with our architect. During the meeting, you will describe to the architect the necessities and amenities you’d like included in your new custom house. We encourage you to bring inspiration pictures and examples of the exact styles and designs you are looking for. This way, we can ensure that your new custom dream home is built exactly how you’ve always imagined it. After collecting a modest sketch plan fee, we’ll have the preliminary sketch plan drawing ready for you within 1-1.5 weeks.

Step #3: Building the Blueprint

Our mission is to show you exactly what you’ve envisioned. Revisions and edits are allowed but may not be necessary. We’ll talk about specifications and allowances for selections and provide an overall cost estimate. Once you’ve approved the sketch plan drawing, the architect will proceed and create the blueprint home plan of your new custom home. To move forward with purchasing the lot and beginning construction, you need to be able to qualify for financing. Paragon Life can refer you to arrange financing for the construction of your new home with one of our preferred lenders or you can use your own lender. Upon approval, we’ll draw up the purchase agreement contract and collect a portion of the required deposit on your new home.

Step #4: Designing Your Dream Home

As your chosen lot is purchased, we will request the remaining portion of the deposit. Once the lot is secured and the deposit paid, we’ll begin the construction process – from getting the necessary permits to making sure you have a completely finished Paragon Life custom home to move into. Typically, the delivery date of your new Paragon Life custom home is approximately six months from the day your new home’s plans are submitted for city approval and permits are issued. Since we have the heavy lifting under control, your time is now freed up for design appointments with our full time professional designer. The design phase involves all of your home selections including exterior siding/stone, cabinetry, paint colors, lighting, plumbing, countertops, and flooring options. As these decisions are made, our designer oversees the sourcing, ordering, and delivery of your selections for scheduled installation.

Step #5: Finished Home

At Paragon Life, we are committed to partnering with you throughout the build of your new custom dream home. We are attentive to your approval of selections and modifications to eliminate any unexpected cost while creating the home you truly desire. Together, prior to home delivery we will walk through your completely finished Paragon Life custom home built with exceptional detail and craftsmanship as promised. From the specifications of your HVAC system to home automation features, we will ensure that you understand the functionality built into your new Paragon Life custom home. Then, it’s time for you to enjoy living in your dream home. At Paragon Life, we stand by each and every home we build, and we continue that guarantee after you move in. Approximately one year after the delivery date of your home we’ll conduct a meeting to address any issues or concerns that may have arisen, like nail pops or adjusting doors or windows as the house will have had time to settle after construction.
