How to bring your build price down without cheapening the house:

TRIM →

1. Square footage before quality- smaller built properly beats bigger built to a price
2. The roofline-every extra ridge and valley is money
3. Phase the outdoor living- patio now, kitchen later
4. Choose your splurge rooms-money where you live

NEVER TOUCH →

The foundation. Everything behind the walls. Once, and right.

Trim smart and nobody will ever see what you saved.

The word that can quietly double your remodel budget: allowance. It's the money we set aside for anything you haven't picked yet and the number moves the second your taste does.

One Westlake remodel had a $32K countertop allowance that doubled once the client picked their stone. Another job's $3,200 ceiling allowance tripled once cedar came into the picture. Neither is a mistake, it's just what happens between the estimate and the selections.

Ask your builder to walk you through your allowances up front. If you're planning a remodel or addition in Austin, send us a DM.

Building on acreage outside Austin city limits? You skip a lot of the permit process but three things still govern your build:

1. Well & septic: The county approves where your water and private sewage system go
2. Deed restrictions: Most land carries rules on what you can build. Read them BEFORE you buy
3. Floodplain & setbacks: How close to the line and the water you're allowed to build

Acreage doesn't mean no rules. It means different rules. All items can be verified before you commit.

Choosing a builder is one of the biggest decisions you'll make and asking the right questions makes it so much clearer.

Five more to bring to your first call:

1. What does your warranty cover after move-in, and for how long?
2. Are you and your crews insured? Can I see the certificates?
3. How often will I hear from you once we start?
4. What triggers each payment?
5. How many homes have you built at my budget?

Any good builder will be glad to answer all five. Ask these and you'll leave knowing exactly who you'd be working with.

A custom home should reflect the people who live in it. Step inside ours with Toby for a look at the home office we designed around how we live and work.

Most people design a house, then try to live in it. We do it the other way around.

Before a single line is drawn, we want to know how you actually use a morning. Where the light matters. Which rooms you'll live in, and which ones you're building for a resale that never comes.

That's why people call us before the architect, not after. The design's easier to get right when the person who has to build it is in the room from day one.

26 years. Three or four homes a year. Every one designed around the people in it.

Custom Home Inspo Saturday 🌿

When you have room to spread out, a custom home can make the most of the land around it. This one has a spacious lawn, warm stone and wood details, and a wraparound porch that gives you plenty of places to sit and enjoy the view.

Could you picture yourself spending a Saturday here?

How much does a major home remodel cost in Austin? The honest answer: it depends on what you’re touching.

Two remodels can be the exact same size — one comes in around $200K, the other closer to a million. Kitchens and bathrooms carry the biggest numbers, and the work behind the walls (wiring, plumbing) adds up faster than most people expect.

We break down where the money actually goes in Episode 3. Follow so you don’t miss it.
