Pick a Major Homebuilder That Will Let You Personalize Your New Home

Let’s say you’re thinking about building a new home with a major homebuilder, but you want some of the benefits of a custom home. 

Building a custom home where every detail can be altered has many benefits, but the cost of a custom home will be significantly higher, not to mention the time commitment of making scores of decisions. Regardless of the cost and time, building a custom home can be difficult.

This is why many people turn to major homebuilders that bring value, cost savings and time savings for buyers. There are typically a limited number of floor plan choices and options, keeping the process simple. 

But all homebuyers aren’t the same. Needs and wants can vary based on family size, ages of family members, frequency of entertaining, hobbies, or a need for storage space.

That’s why William Ryan Homes is a major homebuilder that offers more options than most from structural to design to homesites. In particular, structural options that represent the greatest opportunities to get the home that meets your family’s needs and wants.

Here are questions any major homebuilder will ask you:

Most major homebuilders offer basic options from exterior color to appliances to lighting. Here are questions you’re likely to be asked about the basics:

• Exterior: Which architectural style do you like?...Craftsman, Coastal or something else?
• Front door: What style door to you want?
• Flooring: Do you want hardwood, carpet, or tile? And what colors do you like?
• Countertops: They may come in granite, quartz or laminate. Do you want an island? What statement do you want to make?
• Kitchen cabinetry: What design, material, and finish do you want? How about cabinet and drawer accessories?
• Bathroom details: What fixtures do you prefer -- chrome, oil-rubbed bronze, or nickel?
• Appliances: Which appliances best meet your family’s lifestyle?
• Lighting: Every room in your house is different, so you’ll want to consider lighting room by room. As an example, do you want chandeliers or lamps in the main room?
• Windows: Do you want hurricane shutters? 

So how is William Ryan Homes different? 

Quite simply, William Ryan Homes goes beyond the basics and offers you more options, both structural and design. Consider these questions that we may ask you as you build your new home for your family:

• Do you need a second master suite to accommodate a parent or other family member
  (Multigenerational living is more and more prevalent around the country.)
• Do you want a Bay window in the master bedroom to add more space and natural light to the room?
• Are there half-baths that you want to be full-baths?
• Do you want to expand your garage space to handle a larger SUV or truck?
  (This also may be a good option for storage space, so you don’t have to rent a space.)
• Would you like an extended covered lanai for extra entertaining space?
• Do you want a Pool Bath?
• Do you want a gourmet kitchen with double wall ovens or other special features?
