Oakville - Custom Home Builders
Hello,
May I ask if anyone has experience with custom home builders? I’ve considered resale and preconstruction homes in Oakville. In terms of the appeal, rebuilds tend to pique my interest because of the larger lots and mature communities. I don’t think BuzzBuzzHomes captures custom home projects. I would like to avoid purchasing vacant land. I’d prefer to do everything through the custom home builder if that makes sense.
I was interested in Glen Abbey Encore - Fernbrook. The only remaining desirable lots will back onto a pond. They are charging a hefty premium of $250k (on top of a recent $100k price hike). For a 45’x90’ lot I cannot justify paying that premium, particularly when there is a nearby overhead hydro corridor. Some custom builds in south Oakville are around the same price point ($2.2-2.5 mil range), which is why I’d like to consider that route. I am aware that entails other risks...I have considered renovating a resale home but I can’t make structural changes, specifically ceiling height.
Thanks!
