Once you have made your final choice for a home builder in Prescott, AZ, you will need to schedule a first meeting. This will enable you to ask questions, develop a plan and ensure you are both on the same page. This meeting is important because it sets expectations and really starts off the whole relationship. With that in mind, here are some tips to help make that meeting a successful one.
Bring Any Information You Have
If you have been collecting pictures, brochures, or any other information pertaining to what you would like to see in your design, bring them with you. Don’t be afraid to share your ideas with the contractor. This will help them get a good idea of what you want and what style you prefer. Having visuals leaves less room for misunderstandings. Home builders in Prescott, AZ, like Prescott Builders, will usually have images of local projects they have done on their websites, so you can even pull info from there to show as examples. Using local examples may help you find ideas on incorporating some local flare to your home.
Ask Questions
You should ask questions. Bring a list with you of questions that you have. It’s probably best to wait until the end to start asking questions so you can take the time to listen to the contractor first since he or she may answer a lot of your questions in the process. Make sure that you don’t leave with lingering questions, though. A good contractor will listen to all your questions and if he or she doesn’t know the answer, will research it and get back to you.
Know Your Budget
You should have some general idea of what you can spend. This should include a contingency for unexpected costs that can, and probably will, show up during the project. You should come in with your max budget to give the builder. This will allow them to help you to figure out how much contingency you need to budget for and then figure out a working budget to use for the project.
