ESSENTIAL INSIGHTS FOR HOME BUILDING

When purchasing an existing home, it is always recommended that Buyers have a Property Inspection completed. However, when you build a custom home and everything is brand new, is it really necessary?

The allure of brand new can be very deceiving. Most likely, everything will work on move-in day. Nevertheless, a thorough evaluation all throughout the construction process can eliminate surprises and costly repairs that occur after that 1 yr. warranty runs out. Though it’s exciting to be involved in the design process and shopping for decorative items to personalize your home, it is even more important to concentrate on the basic nuts & bolts that affect the functionality of your home.

Essential Insights for Home Building

1. Building Lot: Our mountainous terrain often comes with steep building lots. Steep topography may require the expertise of a Geotechnical Engineer for assessment on soil conditions to guard against landslides. Very steep lots might even require a sub-basement or crawl space below the basement. Conversely, below street level lots present other challenges. Rainwater and melting sleet or snow travels to the lowest point, and that means it needs to go around your foundation. Years of heavy rain on sloped lots can result in significant erosion if the water is not properly diverted.

2. Building Codes: Yes, certain standards must be met, although County inspections are not concerned with good workmanship. For longevity and less maintenance, research building materials, siding, insulation, HVAC requirements, etc. Fire resistant materials for drywall, glass & window frames should always be considered.

3. Foundations, Structural Support Posts/ Footings: These all seem basic until they fail due to construction deficiencies that are not readily identifiable after the fact. A block foundation is less costly than a poured-concrete foundation. Does the cost outweigh the benefit? A solid foundation is essential to the structural integrity of a building.

4. Framing: Framing a house involves creating the structural framework that supports the entire building. It serves as the skeleton of the home, providing stability and shape. If the foundation isn’t level, the house’s frame will be off and cause problems with the structure’s stability over time.

5. Septic Systems: Septic systems can malfunction due to inappropriate design, excessive slopes, tree root strangulation, high ground water tables and poor maintenance.

6. Windows: Most people are familiar with the top brand names. However, there is a “builder grade” with many brands that might not meet the same specifications you anticipate with that brand name.

7. Plumbing Components: Over the years, certain components such as lead pipes, polybutylene pipes with copper fittings & S-traps were commonplace. These have been banned from construction use. The current PVC & PEX pipes are under scrutiny and, depending on the usage, various materials are recommended. There are five main types of plumbing pipes for your home plumbing system.

a. With Plumbing Fixtures, several manufacturers offer a life-time guarantee. Should a faucet rust out, start to leak, or fail for any reason, it becomes replaceable.

8. Electrical: Electrical malfunctions are one of the most common sources of house fires. Frayed wires, loose power outlets, improperly wired power outlets and other similar issues can cause major shocking hazards as well as fire hazards. Once the drywall is installed, these deficiencies are hidden from the human eye. This does occur in new construction.

9. Bathroom/Cooktop Vent Fans: Bathroom & Cooktop vents should be set up as exhausts that pump air to the outside. They should not be vented to the attic which traps moisture that eventually creates mold/mildew & rotted material surrounding the area. Venting a cooktop hood to the attic can lead to grease buildup creating a fire hazard & potentially damaging the attic.

10. Rear Decks: Deck collapses are quite common for the simple reason they were not firmly attached to the house providing the required structural support.

11. Grading: After construction and several heavy rainfalls, it will become apparent if the slope of the land has been engineered properly. Water that continually runs toward the home will eventually find its way into the foundation.

12. Retaining Walls: Quite common in the hilly lands of Western North Carolina. What appears acceptable in new construction can begin to fail significantly after several years of heavy rainfall.

Professional evaluation of the major components of a home is of utmost importance to be assessed at the time of installation and preferably in the “predrywall” stage when everything is visible. Not all Property Inspectors are created equal. Engaging a Certified Master Inspector (CMI) or licensed code-certified inspector is ideal. Though it is rare, a Property Inspector with a structural engineering background can also be a good source. Reputable home inspectors carry E&O insurance (liability and errors and omission). Choosing the right inspector is critical in making an informed decision.

HOME BUILDING STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS

Find & purchase land/lot. Check out our map for featured areas in Western North Carolina where lots and land are for sale!

Research type of house you want & finalize your budget. Consider number of bedrooms & bathrooms, general layout and number of levels or floors. If you are not paying cash, then be sure to read the accompanying article “Understanding New Construction Loans.”

Research and hire the building team. Hire a general contractor or custom home builder who will oversee the construction from start to finish. Keep in mind the average build will involve 22 subcontractors.*

Get the required permits. Your contractor will connect with local municipal office to review your plans. They will be well-versed in required permits & may possess a rapport with municipality, potentially expediting the process.

Clear the property. Remove debris, trees, brush, and rocks from the building site. Ensure stumps and root systems are removed to prevent re-growth.

Level the site.

Level the ground & fill in any holes. Drive in wooden stakes to mark out where the foundation should be poured.

Prepare the land for the foundation or basement. Dig holes and trenches for the foundation, utilities, and septic.

Install critical systems. Install HVAC system, rough plumbing, have inspector evaluate plumbing, install electrical wires & panels, get an HVAC & electrical inspection, install roof, insulation installed, drywall hung.

Designer touches. Paint walls, exterior finishes installed, flooring laid, windowsills and trim completed, cabinets/vanities light fixtures/outlets/ switches, countertops & appliances installed, landscaping and hardscaping.

Clear to close. Final home inspection, final walkthrough and closing!

*“The Average Home Takes 22 Subcontractors to Build.” https://www.fieldpulse. com/academy/building-homesubcontractors/ March 30, 2018

Build the envelope. “Building the envelope” refers to everything that separates the internal building from the external environment. This step includes installing footings, pouring the foundation, installing drains/sewers/ taps, having the foundation inspected, building the frame, applying sheathing to exterior walls, and installing windows and exterior doors.

Understanding New Construction Loans

Embarking on a new construction project can be an exciting yet daunting endeavor. If you are not paying cash, then securing financing is a crucial step in the process. New construction loans offer a specialized form of financial support tailored to the unique needs of building from the ground up.

What are New Construction Loans?

New construction loans are short-term loans designed to fund the construction of a new property. Unlike traditional mortgages, which are typically structured for completed homes or buildings, these loans provide financing for the various stages of construction.

How Do New Construction Loans Work?

The loan process typically involves several phases:

• Application: You'll submit detailed plans and cost estimates for your construction project.

• Approval: Lenders evaluate your creditworthiness, project plans, and financial stability before approving the loan.

• Disbursement: Funds are released in stages or "draws" as construction progresses. This ensures that money is available for each phase of the project.

• Conversion: Once construction is complete, the loan may be converted into a traditional mortgage or paid off with a lump sum.

Types of New Construction Loans

• Construction-to-Permanent Loans: These loans combine construction financing and long-term mortgage loans into a single package, streamlining the process for borrowers.

• Stand-Alone Construction Loans: These loans solely cover the cost of construction and must be refinanced or paid off once the project is complete.

• Renovation Construction Loans: Designed for projects involving significant renovations or rehabilitation of existing structures.

Key Considerations

• Down Payment: New construction loans typically require a larger down payment compared to traditional mortgages, often ranging from 20% to 25%.

• Interest Rates: Interest rates for new construction loans can be higher than those for traditional mortgages due to the higher risk associated with incomplete properties.

• Construction Timeline: Lenders will assess the feasibility of your construction timeline and may impose deadlines for project completion.

• Builder Requirements: Some lenders may have specific criteria regarding the qualifications and experience of builders and contractors involved in the project.

New construction loans offer a tailored financing solution for individuals and developers embarking on construction projects. By understanding the intricacies of these loans, including their structure, requirements, and potential risks, borrowers can navigate the process more effectively. Working closely with lenders, builders, and other professionals can help ensure a successful outcome for your new construction venture.
