Why Build New
The Benefits of New Construction
Building new offers unique advantages—but also comes with challenges that require expert guidance.
The Advantages
Custom Design
Build exactly what you want—floor plan, finishes, and features tailored to your lifestyle.
Modern Efficiency
New construction meets current energy codes, reducing utility costs from day one.
Warranty Protection
Builder warranties cover structural, mechanical, and cosmetic issues for years.
Latest Technology
Pre-wired for smart home systems, security, and high-speed connectivity.
The Challenges
Timeline Uncertainty
Weather, supply chain, and labor can extend completion dates.
Cost Overruns
Upgrades and change orders can quickly exceed budget without careful planning.
Builder Negotiations
Incentives and pricing require expert negotiation to maximize value.
This is where I come in. My job is to maximize the benefits and minimize the risks—so you get the home you want, on time and on budget.
The Process
Your New-Build Journey
Lot Selection
We analyze available lots for orientation, views, flood zones, and future development impacts. The right lot is the foundation of your dream home.
Builder Interviews
I help you vet builders, compare quality, timelines, and pricing. My relationships with local builders give you leverage in negotiations.
Contract & Upgrades
We strategize which upgrades add value vs. which can wait. I review contracts to protect your interests and negotiate incentives.
Construction Oversight
I attend key milestone inspections—foundation, framing, pre-drywall—to catch issues before they become expensive problems.
Closing & Walk-through
Comprehensive final inspection, punch list negotiation, and smooth closing coordination. Keys in hand, no surprises.

Client Stories
Building with Confidence

The Patel Family
Windsong Ranch, Prosper
"We had no idea how much we could negotiate on upgrades. Raven got us $40K in design center credits we would have paid full price for."
Michael & Sarah
Light Farms, Celina
"Building from California was stressful until Raven became our eyes on the ground. Weekly updates, photos, and honest feedback made all the difference."
