Our Process

Know The Cost Before You Build

The Vision Behind The CCA Process

The Comprehensive Cost Analysis (CCA) was created to eliminate one of the biggest uncertainties in custom home building: knowing what your home will cost before construction begins. Through careful planning, detailed design, and years of construction expertise, we’ve developed a process that gives you clarity, confidence, and the peace of mind that comes with a fixed-price contract.

Learn About each stage the CCA Process

PHASE ONE:
DISCOVERY

This is the beginning of the CCA process. During discovery, we want to get to know you, your property and your needs. We don’t rush into designing. This time is invaluable to help us realize your dreams and create the best home possible for you and your family.

Phase Two:
Plan Design

Whether you prefer collaborating in person or communicating by email, we’ll tailor the design process to fit your style. Together, we’ll refine your floor plan and elevations, incorporating your feedback until every detail reflects your vision.

Once the initial design is complete, we’ll provide a preliminary price to help guide any adjustments needed to align with your budget. From there, we’ll finalize details, including the placement of lighting and electrical outlets, before you sign the finalization agreement and move into the selections phase.

PHASE Three: SELECTIONS

Our expert interior designers work alongside you through every step of the selections process. Prioritizing making your ideas, inspirations, and goals into a reality. Through the selections process, we are able to help you create a home that best represents you

Just a Starting Point

Don't be afraid to make changes later. Selections are an ongoing conversation.

Phase Four:
Contract

Once your design and selections are complete, we’ll deliver a comprehensive set of construction plans along with a detailed, fixed-price proposal you can move forward with confidence. At this point, your Comprehensive Cost Analysis is complete, and you’re ready to begin building your home.
