Building a custom, new construction home for the first time is an exciting yet complex process that requires planning, patience, and paying close attention to detail. Whether you are a first-time homebuyer or an experienced homeowner, Triple A Homes will guide you through the construction steps from start to finish as your dream home takes shape. What can you expect when building a new home for the first time? Triple A Homes promises quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and superior customer service at each checkpoint.

What is Your Vision?

Builders typically offer a range of floor plans, and with Triple A Homes, you can customize endless elements to suit your needs. We will help you find your new-build vision by defining your home’s layout, style choices, and features.

• Defining Your Home’s Layout: How many bedrooms and bathrooms will you need? What is the ideal square footage of your future home? Do you prefer an open or closed-concept home? These questions and more will be answered through the design stage.
• Defining Your Style: Inside and out, we will talk style preferences. Outside, we’ll define your preferred exterior material, such as brick, stone, or siding. Inside, we’ll discuss options for cabinetry, hardware, lighting, and more.
• Defining Your Features: First, we’ll define those must-have features, such as a home office or first-floor guest suite. Second, we’ll map out features that would be nice to have, but are not necessarily required, such as space for a home gym or craft room.

With an agreed-upon vision for your first custom home, the team at Triple A Homes will be able to create a construction plan that works within your timeframe and budget. It is not uncommon to pivot at this point as “seeing it on paper” sometimes kicks off the need for adjustments. The team at Triple A Homes uses client feedback to redefine their vision or even develop an entirely new plan, if needed.

Lots, Loans, and Approvals:

As your new construction home vision is being defined, we will start the search for that perfect lot. Many buyers opt for a lot in a planned community, while others purchase land separately.  Triple A Homes, will guide you through the selection process, ensuring that your chosen lot suits your home design while meeting zoning requirements. We are based in central North Carolina, perfectly situated to help clients settle in Apex, Chapel Hill, Holly Springs, Pittsboro, and the surrounding areas.

Building a custom home often requires a construction loan, which differs from a traditional mortgage. This type of loan is typically paid out in phases as construction progresses. Once the home is completed, the loan will be converted into a traditional mortgage. With a long history in new construction home builds, the team at Triple A Homes can guide you through this unique format.

Before breaking ground, we will obtain all necessary permits. In North Carolina, this includes zoning approvals, building permits, environmental permits, and HOA approvals (if needed). Triple A Homes handles much of this process, ensuring compliance with local regulations and streamlining the paperwork for our clients.

What to Expect When Construction Begins?

Before construction begins, we will meet to review finalized design plans, discuss timelines, and confirm selections. Triple A Homes ensures that homeowners understand each of the following phases of the building process.

• Site Preparation and Foundation begins by clearing and leveling the lot before laying your home’s foundation.
• Framing includes creating the skeleton of your home. This includes walls, roof trusses, and floors in addition to window and door installation.
• Rough-Ins: Plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems are installed during the rough-in stage. Triple A Homes works with experienced subcontractors to ensure high-quality installations.
• Interior and Exterior Finishing is an exciting stage as buyers finally see those finishing touches come to life. Drywall and painting are completed. Flooring is installed. Cabinetry and countertops are placed. Lighting fixtures are hung. Outside, the driveway is poured, landscaping is installed, and your home’s exterior is completed.

The construction stage of building a custom home is thrilling as your dream moves from design to reality. Once construction is complete, you will join the Triple A Homes team for a final walkthrough and inspection. Our goal, from start to finish, is to deliver a home that meets your every desire, including all customizations and features.

Building a new home is a significant investment and Triple A Homes strives to turn each of our projects into an exceptional home. We offer a ten-year warranty to each of our clients to ensure that their newly built home is extraordinary for life.
