With any question there are two sides of the coin, yes the market has slowed - But people still want what they want and in time they will find away to accommodate their wishes. To this end many real estate buyers have chosen to purchase land in a location that can't be duplicated in the future, once that is wrapped up building becomes the focus.
We have stayed the custom builders course for 35 years, and one principal that has allowed us to stay busy no matter the times is. Use the price of materials that your customers will actually choose from. Now that may sound simple but we hear time and again that competing builders are low balling the flooring cabinets, and other key components to make they're bid look like a lower gross number. When in fact once the choices are made and Hickory Cabinets, Oak Flooring, Masonry fireplaces and the like are in fact picket for the job. The Change orders and difference in materials specified for the job, always makes the end result a much larger price. so we use the true allowances that we know going in will be the level of finish a home owner will want.
When you are known for your skill as a custom home builder, why would you put Formica counter tops, and cheap carpet in your quote. You wouldn't ,you quote your overall price with Granite counter tops and Maple floors and the home owners numbers in the end are what they bargained for.
