Our homebuilding process
From your first planning conversation to your final walkthrough, here is what to expect when building with OnSite Homes. The sequence and schedule depend on your property and project.
1. Plan your financing
Speak with a lender early about your budget, loan options, and requirements. Financing decisions are made by the lender and remain subject to its review and approval.
2. Choose a floor plan
Explore layouts and discuss the changes that matter to you. Review how plan choices and finishes may affect the scope, cost, and timing.
3. Evaluate your home site
Bring the property details if you already own land. We’ll discuss the location, site conditions, and whether the plan fits. If you are still looking, ask us about the next steps.
4. Prepare for construction
After the required plans, approvals, and pre-construction documents are in place, site preparation and foundation work begin.
5. Build the structure
Framing gives the floor plan its shape and creates the structure for the roof, windows, doors, and interior spaces.
6. Install the major systems
Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing rough-ins bring the home’s essential systems into place before walls are finished.
7. Complete required inspections
Construction is inspected at the required stages. The applicable local authority reviews work for compliance with its requirements.
8. Finish the interior
Drywall, trim, cabinetry, countertops, flooring, and other selected finishes bring your home’s spaces together.
9. Complete the final details
Final fixtures, exterior work, and the remaining project details are completed according to the agreed scope.
10. Walk through your new home
After the required final approvals, we walk through the home with you, discuss operation and maintenance, and review the 2-10 Warranty Program. Coverage is governed by the warranty documents provided for your home.
Common homebuilding questions
Can I customize a plan?
Yes. Discuss your requested changes with our team. Feasibility, pricing, and construction timing depend on the specific plan and scope.
Where does OnSite Homes build?
We consider projects around Fayetteville and the Sandhills, including Cumberland, Hoke, Harnett, Johnston, and Moore counties. Contact us with your property address to confirm whether the location is a fit.
Can you quote a standard price per square foot?
A useful estimate depends on the home design, site conditions, finishes, and project scope. Contact us to discuss those details before relying on a broad price-per-square-foot figure.
Can I visit during construction?
Please arrange any job-site visit with OnSite Homes in advance. Construction sites have active hazards, so do not enter unannounced.
What warranty is provided?
OnSite Homes offers a 2-10 Warranty Program. Ask for the applicable documents and coverage details; we review the program during your final walkthrough and provide the warranty at closing.
