Our Custom Home Building Process
10 Steps to your brand new custom home from Schumacher Homes!
1. Home Tour
Find out all the features and benefits of building a Schumacher custom home.
Experience the Wall of Quality at one of our Design Centers.
2. Select and Customize Your Home Plan
Here’s when you can explore all your options, and choose the design that’s right for you from hundreds of home plans. We are the first builder in the country to offer Real Time Design™ where you can make all of the changes you want, using Smart Board technology. You will actually see them draw your plans and you can provide instant feedback.
3. Determine The Cost of Your Home
Our state-of-the-art pricing program leads the industry in pricing your new home. For your No-Obligation price quote, we will go through the presentation of more than 200 standard and optional features, and you will receive a copy of the quote showing all pricing, descriptions and images of your selections. All items will be explained in detail. With Schumacher Homes, there are no hidden costs, and no unwelcome surprises!
4. Complete The Paperwork
You will receive your New Home Owner manual. It’s so thorough, it answers questions you haven't even thought of yet!
5. Financing
We are pleased to offer a variety of mortgage options to suit your individual needs including: low to no down payment options, conventional financing with as little as 5% down, no PMI options, and FHA programs.
6. Color Selections
Leveraging our strategic financial partnerships, we can offer more construction lending options than any other builder.
7. Home Site Inspection
We will schedule a home site inspection where your personal builder will come to your home site to determine lot characteristics and home placement.
8. Pre-Construction Meeting
This is the final meeting before we begin building your brand new Schumacher home. At this meeting you will meet your construction team and we will review all details related to your new home.
9. Construction
We believe the key to any strong relationship is communication. Lots of it. So, you can expect to hear from your personal builder on a regular basis throughout the construction process. And, you know who to talk to when you have questions. You will even have his cell phone number. Your personal builder will accompany you on a final inspection to ensure that every detail of your new home lives up to the same high standards of quality and craftsmanship that Schumacher Homes is committed to. Operating and maintenance procedures for all systems will be reviewed.
10. Move-In
Here it is. The day when you close on your home and officially make it yours is definitely a day worth celebrating. Our commitment to you is just beginning with the start of our ten-year transferable insured structural warranty, supported by our full time warranty department. Now it's time to place the furniture, hang the pictures and say to yourself quietly, "It's nice to be home."
