Home Planning

Our Process Makes Building Your New Home a Great Experience From Start to Finish!


John Askew has developed a streamlined process over the years to make buying your custom home as easy as possible. We are able to give you a project price projection even before we even begin plan design!


Our process is easy to follow and show below for your convenience.

Nine Step Program

  1. PRELIMINARY MEETING: to discuss size and type of home you and your family might be considering. We can also aid you in finding the perfect homesite in one of our communities or in an area you were considering building a home.
  2. WE WILL THEN be able to pre-price your dream home with the options that are important to you and your family. We understand that every family has a budget and we work with you to make sure you are getting the most home for your money.
  3. PLAN DESIGN - John Askew Company works with a plan designer that will incorporate your dreams and inspiration in to your new home. We actually help and guide you through the design process.
  4. FINANCING OPTIONS - John Askew Company has worked with our preferred lender for many years. Competitive rates, different financing options and outstanding customer service make the lenders we recommend stand out from the rest.
  5. CLOSING of your interim construction loan will happen in the next few weeks.
  6. NEXT, THE FUN REALLY BEGINS. We will work with you to start selection of material colors and finishes for your new home. You will get expert design advice on everything you are considering.
  7. Preconstruction meeting to make sure all last minute changes are incorporated and a thorough overview of the process will be covered. We take this time to educate you on what to expect during the construction period.
  8. SEVERAL SITE WALKS will occur between you and the project manager over the next several months. John Askew Company believes in honest open communication. We want you to be involved in the process.
  9. FINAL WALK-THRU. You are ready to move-in to your beautiful new home.
