Streamline Your Project With Exclusive Client Tools

We understand home owners want their construction projects to be as smooth and hassle-free as possible.

That’s why we provide each client with access to a secure online tool that contains all the details of their project and tracks the progress throughout the process. Whether you are at home, at work, on the road, or on vacation, you’ll have the most current information at your fingertips about your selections, upgrades, financial decisions, questions, documents, photos, and more.

Carroll Construction's Project Management Tool provides:

  • Easy, clear access to the information related to your project
  • A clear list of all the decisions that need to be made
  • Simple method to view and approve upgrades online
  • Documentation of the financial costs related to your project
  • Progress reports so you see what is happening, and what's next
  • Streamlined communication with real-time alerts on updated information

The most appreciated feature of our tool is the ability to communicate in an organized, yet detailed, manner.

As your construction progresses, you will need to have “conversations” about certain items, like asking for clarification on a selection or providing an update on a warranty request. Rather than using e-mail, you can add comments to many of the items in the site. Comments group these conversations together with the items to which they relate, which keeps information organized and available to everyone, cutting down on misunderstandings. We can also attach photos and files to make it all even clearer!

Watch the demo video below to see just a few of the ways our online client access keeps you in touch and well-informed during your new construction, addition, or remodeling job.

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.
