Location, Location, Location

It's a common phrase—the most important attribute of a home whether you are buying or selling is: Location, Location, Location. It's absolutely true. Your property's location is foundational to your total project cost. Consider the price of the land itself, the cost of building permits in your jurisdiction, and the basic utilities you'll pay in perpetuity. Location is everything.

Your local Northwest Washington Adair Homes branch office offers great resources to help you in your land search. We have a vast network of Realtors who specialize in land acquisition, and can guide you through the sales process from identifying the perfect lot to closing.

Moving Dirt

Every piece of property will 'hold' a house differently. Thus, your site development costs will vary from lot to lot. Don't know where to start? Don't worry. Adair offers a free site evaluation. One of our local Northwest Washington construction superintendents will personally walk your intended property to determine development costs. Is the lot steep? Will it require more foundation work? Are there trees to be avoided or moved? What kind of excavation will be required? This is also the time where the cost of permits, utilities, and provisional access is calculated.

Pro Tip: If your land already has utilities set up, you'll save a lot of money! If you're purchasing acreage, plan on spending a little more in utilities to bring power, water (and sometimes sewer) to your homesite.

Blue Prints

We've come a long way—but we still haven't talked about the home itself; the meat and potatoes of your total project cost. Choosing a floorplan will determine the overall size of your home. Remember, every square foot of home space adds to every line item in your calculated cost—whether that's flooring, plumbing lines, or electrical wiring—the bigger your home, the greater the cost of each category.
