GLH Building Process

For those who have never purchased one of the custom new homes in Atlantic Beach FL, the process may seem daunting. The time, the choices, the costs. Yet when you work with quality builders like Glenn Layton Homes, you skip much of the stress, thanks to their building process that always keeps the customer informed and up to date. They work with you every step of the way to turn the building process into a dream home that’s worth the extra effort.

It starts by meeting to discuss your dreams, vision, location, timeline, and budget. By determining the financing and budget up front, Glenn Layton Homes is able to guide you and also put you in touch with their preferred lenders to help you get the best financial options to make your home a reality.

From there, they move on to the lot consultation if you’re planning to build on your own piece of land. If you don’t have your own lot, they can help you find one. With a lot chosen, it’s time to meet with the award-winning architect, Mike Stauffer. By understanding your lifestyle and how you use your home, he and the team create a home design that optimizes every inch to ensure you are satisfied, down to closet space and covered porches.

Once you have the basic home play laid out, you then meet with the design team to determine the finishing touches. Cabinets, flooring, lighting, appliances, countertops, A/V options and smart home technology preferences are all discussed to make sure every element of your home truly reflects you.

Once all of the preferences are determined, you finally get to see what your home will really be like as Glenn and Mike walk you through the plans, from the front door to the backyard. Here you can discuss revisions and the final pricing based on your choices. Once the plans are finalized, it’s time for the purchase agreement and closure on the construction loan. Throughout all of this, the team is just a call or email away, thanks to the Co-construct Communication System, which ensures you are kept up to date and in the loop on all aspects of the process, including construction.

Before construction starts, you will go through all of your choices for the interior, making the final choices as you work with various vendors and designers. Then you’ll have a pre-construction meeting with your project manager to sign off on all of the final plans. Before you know it, your dream coastal home will be a reality and thanks to the communication and attention to detail that goes into every Glenn Layton Homes build, you’ll realize that building a custom home is one of the best choices you could make.

If you’re in the market for new homes in Atlantic Beach FL, Glenn Layton Homes is one of the most trusted and respected builders you could hope to find. Their knowledge, experience, and attention to the build and to the customer ensures a positive experience from start to finish.
