Concierge Design Consultation Services

Most new homeowners have little experience in selecting the right fixtures, maintaining a consistent color palette, or even know what questions to ask a vendor!

That’s why Carroll Construction offers a concierge design consultation as part of every custom home package! While other builders may require you to find an independent (& costly!) designer-for-hire to assist you, our clients can rely on Tracy Carroll’s 25 years of intensive design experience to help guide them throughout the various processes…AT NO EXTRA CHARGE!

Tracy loves meeting with clients one on one to share her experience and insight. Plus, she will travel with you to key vendor appointments to help streamline the process, work with the vendors, and ensure you get what you want.

Having a knowledgeable & qualified designer at your side during these meetings offers a few distinct advantages:

Tracy is experienced with the vendors’ processes, and will ensure you have access to the widest variety of product selections
She knows what specific questions to ask, as well as what answers may need extra clarification
You’ll be confident that what you choose will both reflect your tastes and match each other
Tracy will help you avoid common pitfalls and reduce errors in ordering & fulfillment

Aging In Place – Designing Homes To Accommodate a Lifetime

What do you mean when you say aging in place?

The concept is simple. Aging in place design embraces the concept that homes should accommodate people of all ages. In theory, a properly designed home could provide accessibility for a person to be born in and live their entire life in a single residence. Just as you would plan for college, you should plan for aging so that your needs will continue to be met beyond retirement. A well designed home is a great place to start that planning.

Carroll Construction has been designated as Certified Aging in Place Specialists by the National Association of Home Builders. Let us help you to create a home that you will enjoy for the rest of your life!

IMPORTANT LOAN CONSIDERATIONS

Your budget is the foundation for every other decision you will make while preparing to build a home because it provides context for what is possible. Most people attempt to answer the question of “What is my budget?” by simply deciding how much they would be comfortable spending. Unfortunately, while this is a crucial part of the process, it ignores the rest of the picture. We advise our clients to answer the following questions in the order below. However, if you are self-financing the project, skip to question #3.

1. How much will a financial institution lend me?

This sets what we refer to as your Maximum Loan Amount.

2. What type of loan will I need?

This is where many people get confused because if you ask the wrong questions when interviewing lenders, you’ll get vastly different answers. We recommend reviewing the information in this article on the loan type you will need before meeting with your lending candidates.

3. How much am I willing to spend?

Just because a lender is will to lend up to your Maximum Loan Amount, this does not mean you will be willing to borrow and spend that amount. Consider the monthly payments as a starting point and adjust your Budget amount from there. Your chosen lender can help you with this.

4. What can I reasonably expect to build for what I am willing to spend?

This answer will come from a qualified builder during your preliminary meeting. Be prepared to discuss your budget so that the builder can help you get a better idea of what size home to design to meet your goals.
