Most people, when they hear the words “custom homes”, immediately jump to the conclusion that they are intensively complex along with their skyrocketing costs. The reality on the other hand is that building a custom home with the right builder is not more than possible but additionally can be a smooth as well as rewarding experience. At Blossom Homes, we’ve made the customer journey as accessible, guided and stress-free as possible.

1. You initiate - And not rely on a template

In a world where mass production is a go to, you’re often asked to choose from a limited set of options which may or may not reflect you and your personality but does reflect the builders’. These homes are built for average buyers - structured more around repetition and not individuality. When it is the case of a custom home everything begins with you - your story, your choices and your lifestyle. The process at Blossom Homes starts by understanding you and what truly a home means to you. To us, it is not about fitting your life in a mere floor plan but creating a floorplan to fit in your life. From the number of bedrooms, to the placement of windows, from storage solutions to sustainability goals, everything is designed with respect to your individuality. Your home is not a product we offer but is a vision to help you build. That is the benefit of starting with a custom home builder.

2. You’re not alone

One of the most prevailing misconceptions about building a custom home is that it is an isolated and complicated journey wherein you are left to make endless decisions on your own without anyone’s support. As soon as you start your journey with us, our experts are assigned to you who guide you throughout the process. While with us, you don’t have to worry about architectural terminology or council approvals. That’s our job and your role is to share your vision and dreams, we will take care of bringing them to life. Rather than having to know everything yourself, you are guided through people who have done it many times before. Ultimately, building a custom home is about being collaborative wherein you are in the center of the process and are surrounded by expertise.

3. More accessibility doesn’t mean more stress

One of the major benefits of building a custom home is the control you get over your choices. You get to decide how your home looks, how it functions and similarly how it would fit into your lifestyle. At the same time, more control doesn’t have to mean more stress, especially when the process is broken down into phases and handled by seasoned experts. Rather than choosing from pre-set designs, custom homes give you the freedom to be independent and build a home on your own terms. You can decide on the floor plan, lighting, interior, room sizes, storage sizes, parking and what not. Building a custom home will make you feel more empowered rather than feeling overwhelmed.

4. Custom doesn’t always resonate to being expensive

There is a common assumption that building a custom home is significantly more expensive than purchasing a pre-built one. While custom homes provide more flexibility, options and the freedom to choose from options, it does not translate to being more expensive than the predecessor. In fact with the right people around along with the right strategy, building a custom home can be surprisingly cost-effective. The level of control you have while building one resonates with the budget to be more specific and is used more effectively. Additionally most of the unexpected expenses in home ownership are realized after moving in which are expelled during the building process itself when dealing with a custom home. Cost can also be managed more efficiently with a transparent building process.

5. Modern tools help with visualisation and easing out things

One of the problems that most people face while building a custom home is the confusion of how their vision comes to life. Technical drawings are hard to interpret especially if you’ve never built a house before. But thanks to modern tools and technologies it is no longer a headache for you. You get an idea of your unbuilt even way before the construction starts. Today’s modern tools offer 3D models along with virtual walkthroughs which allows you to experience your home in a more realistic and immersive way. Additionally, technology allows for changes in the initial phases of design, that too seeming as if done in real time.

Ultimately, It’s easier than you think as it is the journey of creating something loved and personal. With the right preparation, the journey doesn’t have to feel like a challenge.
