How long will it take to build a new home?
The length of time it will take to build a new home is dependent on many factors, including, the size and complexity of the home, contingency removal and, most importantly, current weather conditions. Generally speaking, it is reasonable to expect your home to be completed within 90 – 120 days from the date the home has been officially released for construction. In other words, once all contingencies have been removed and the start sheet has been completed, reviewed and signed by all parties
