• The action of building a custom home in Salt
  Lake City is almost always a major misconception
  for homeowners. Homeowners who have the idea of
  building a custom home are more likely to buy an
  already built structure and work with a builder
  to modify the home. However, that is a
  challenging way to go about it. Homeowners have
  this idea that they will be able to find and
  purchase a perfect lot, then hire an architect to
  design their dream home, then take their plan to
  builders who will eagerly bid out the project,
  then homeowners choose the lowest bid. In
  reality, homeowners should first find a builder
  they would like to work with, then as a team they
  choose a lot and start building a custom home.

• When choosing a lot to buy, homeowners should
  understand the builder/ new construction market.
  As there is a lot of new construction on the
  outskirts of the city, most of them are not
  custom projects. The new constructions are what
  builders call spec homes which are where the
  builder buys a lot and then builds a new home on
  speculation that they will be able to sell to a
  home buyer.

• When the Salt Lake City real estate market is
  booming, residents can see an increase of spec
  home activity. Builders will invest a great
  amount of time and resources into finding the
  best lots to build their spec homes. Once
  builders find a good lot, they work quickly to
  put together an all cash offer with limited
  contingencies and closing terms tailored to the
  seller's needs. They want the buying process to
  be simple and transparent. If a reputable
  developer finds a perfect lot, they can even
  presell the new home before it is even built.

• Homeowners who want to start building a custom
  home are going to have to compete with builders
  to find a quality lot and be prepared with a
  competitive offer. Homeowners wanting to build a
  custom home have an uphill battle since they do
  not have the same experience as some developers.
