Tips on Streamlining the Custom Home-Building Process Offered by Meyer Homes

Hopkinton, MA…People looking to build their dream home often brace themselves for missteps, frustration and red tape. Meyer Homes, a Hopkinton, MA-based design/build firm specializing in building upscale homes and communities, is working to change that perception by offering a well-organized process that leaves their clients both pleased and satisfied.

President of Meyer Homes Craig Meyer offers several steps people can take to streamline the home-building process to avoid headaches and swelling budgets. He stresses the importance of working with a building firm that puts someone in place to manage the entire home-building process. This will help control costs and provide the client with coordination of efforts among the parties on the design/build team. Meyer said the job of the home-building firm is more than simply constructing a home. It is one of helping a client through the sometimes overwhelming decisions that need to be made to design and build a new home.

“It’s so important to make the process a lot of fun for your clients,” said Meyer. “Our clients come to us having done varying amount of preparation work and we take pride in responding to their differing needs whatever they may be. Open communication is one of the keys to the process. Good communication avoids mistakes and misunderstandings and takes away the mystique of building a custom home.

Another way to pave a smooth road in the home-building process is for clients to take photos of items they find in a friend’s home or clip items they see in a magazine that they want to include within their home. Meyer said this is an effective way to give the home builder a clear idea of your goals without having to paint a verbal picture of what you want.

Meyer Homes can offer an all-encompassing customer experience through their many industry partnerships. Those in need of help with services such as architectural plans, interior design, landscape architecture and other tasks will be connected with top professionals from those fields who will assist the customer each step of the way.

“Creating your dream home should be among the happiest times in a person’s life so it’s crucial to follow the above steps and to work with a builder who can serve your needs,” said Meyer.
