SELECTING PROPERTY

It’s time to find a lot! All of the components of Western North Carolina that drew you to this area come into play here, and it’s helpful to work with an experienced builder to select your lot. Below are some of the factors a builder will help you consider, when looking for your ideal property:

Proximity and Community: Look for a builder who has significant experience building in WNC, and they will be able to provide some insight as to the communities you might want to consider, based on your interests, and proximity goals.

Water, Septic, and Driveway Access: Water and septic access will vary greatly depending on your desired home location. In WNC’s steep terrain, driveway access can sometimes be a challenge, or require significant grading. Look for a builder who has experience working with a wide variety of locations and lot types.

Selecting property is one of the most important decisions in your home building process, not only because of your location, but also beacuse of the expense associated with building on your lot.

Achieving a home with a beautiful mountain view starts with seeking the input of an experienced builder, who can help you determine whether a lot will work for your design, goals, and budget.

Guidelines

Community ARC Guidelines: Many private communities in WNC have Architectural Review Committees that review a home’s proposed design and exterior selections for adherence to their community’s vision and values. Unlike some clients expect, the ARC doesn’t aim to ensure your home is a “cookie cutter”, but rather that the experience and other homes that drew you to the community in the beginning remains consistent throughout the community’s future.
