The Building Approach

Allow us to help guide you through the process of building your dream home.

Find Your Property.


When looking to build a new home the first step is to find a piece of property or lot in a subdivision that you desire to live on, if it’s a piece of property not in a developed subdivision than you will have to find the land owner, this can often be achieved by visiting your parish or county assessor office and using the address to find the property owner, if you’re your desired lot is in a subdivision you can also use the assessors’ office or you can contact the subdivision developer to obtain all of the information needed.

Most property owners allow down payments in order to hold the property while you begin the home design procedure. Once down payment is excepted you can begin designing your home, if your lot is in a subdivision than the developer will give you a set of rules or guidelines called restrictions/restrictive covenants that need to be followed in order to build in that subdivision, if your property is not in a developed subdivision than local building codes are pretty much the only restrictions, what’s good about subdivisions with restrictions is you can control to a certain extend what is built around your property.
