Bill Black Reviews Merritt Aspergen

How we helped Merritt find a home by acting quickly

"He is very customer service oriented. I called him at about 9:30 on a weeknight, and he called me back in about fifteen minutes. He got me scheduled for a showing on a house the very next morning! It was lucky he did, too, because the people seeing the house after us had put an offer on it. So since we got the earlier showing, we were able to get the house!"

Bill Black Reviews Jim Blazek

How we helped Jim by always going above and beyond

"Bill Black got the job done, that’s the bottom line. I've used Bill on two occasions, and he got everything done right, he got it done fast, and I’m very satisfied. The norm for Bill is to go above and beyond! He’s exceeded my expectations in everything he’s ever done. I can’t say any one thing stands out because the whole process stands out—it got done!"

-Jim Blazek

Bill Black Reviews Dru Humphrey

How we helped Dru buy a home by keeping the process moving

"They were great. He helped me get the process going right away, and we basically got everything that we wanted! Part of the agreement was that the seller owed us $2000 for repairs. At the closing, they said they would send us the check later. Bill made sure that we got the check right then in order to keep the process moving. It was a really quick process!"

We've seen a ton of new construction lately, which has been prompting a lot of my clients to ask, "When is the best time to build a home?" 

I'd like to answer that question today, while giving you advice on what you should start planning for before you even call a builder. 

This year, the best time to build a home is coming up, in the early spring. It will typically take anywhere from 5-6 months to competently build a home, so you want to plan accordingly. 

Although it's still winter, it's not too early to start planning your new home. You want to give yourself anywhere from 4-8 weeks prior to breaking ground. You've got to meet with a builder, finalize plans, and apply for a permit before you lay the foundation. 

In whole, the entire building process should take about 7 months from start to finish. If you want to be moved into your new home by the time the kids start school again next fall, you should start planning soon.  We have a ton of great lots right now and would love to show you them. If you have any questions, or would like to take a look at some lots, feel free to give us a call or send us an email.
