Considering New Construction? Learn How Our Approach Is Different
When you hear the words "new construction," you likely think "builder." Builder homes are typically seen as cookie-cutter options that offer little customization and uniqueness. You pick the exterior style and floor plan and choose some interior finishes like paint colors.
That's pretty much it.
You might be thinking, "Why would I want to pay for a new home if all I'm getting is a few interior options?"
We agree. At Llano Real Estate Group, our team is dedicated to offering "big city" options with "small town" customer service. That means we design jaw-dropping homes with hundreds of options while keeping you up-to-date on the entire process. You'll have a dedicated project manager/design specialist who makes sure your home perfectly reflects your family and needs. This means that your new construction is much more than a house – it's a home.
So what can you expect from the Llano Real Estate Group? Let's break down the process.
Step 1: It All Starts With You
Many new construction homes in the Amarillo area follow a basic building blueprint regardless of your needs and lifestyle. This can mean your new home will lack the customizing options you're looking for. If you want a home that reflects your personality, Llano is the builder for you. Our team will come to you to learn what makes you tick – what you like, what you don't, and what your dream home will include.
That means the design process begins before any concrete has been poured. We ensure every detail is thought of ahead of time for a fully custom new construction. We feature over 40 floor plan designs and hundreds of customization options, ensuring your new home is the one you've dreamed about. Once you land on a potential floor plan, our team will work with you to add or remove walls and layout rooms to your liking.
Step 2: Meet Your Llano Real Estate Group Design Team
While many builders will send you to an outside designer, Llano Real Estate Group has a dedicated design team. This means you'll work with the same people throughout the entire process – from start to finish.
With over 75 years of planning, development, construction, and brokerage experience, our team will make sure your home is the best it can be. Your design specialist will answer any questions you have and keep you updated throughout the process, as well as offer helpful decorating ideas to ensure your new home is picture-perfect.
Our design team operates on four unique values:
1. We, Not Me:
The goal of our team is to ensure that you are satisfied with your new home. We’ll go the extra mile to exceed all expectations at every step of the process.
2. Serve with Passion:
We’re committed to the absolute best customer service. We set out to serve our clients with passion and give them an experience they will want to brag about.
3. Deliver Excellence:
We’ll always strive to deliver excellence on every project we do. We know that we can't stop improving, and we don't plan to as the future of our industry is uncertain and ever-changing.
4. Be Good Stewards:
Building your dream home is a huge responsibility, and we take it very seriously. We want to do what's best for the community where your new home will be located, which is why we're known in our industry as leaders in sustainable building and business practices.
With the Llano Real Estate Group design team, you'll get an opportunity to create the home of your dreams. Our dedicated designers and project managers will go above and beyond to ensure that you're satisfied with all aspects of the process.
Step 3: The Floor Plan is Designed
Now it's time for the nitty-gritty – moving imaginary walls around on paper until you have a beautiful floor plan that fits your family's needs. This step involves a lot of back and forth between you and our design specialist, so we usually schedule a few appointments to get you the perfect layout. Your design team will work closely with you to perfect the blueprint of your new home.
At any point in the design process, you have the opportunity to tweak, change or add or remove elements to ensure your new home is just what you want. Your dedicated design specialist will work with you to ensure your floor plan is truly custom.
Step 4: Our Design Specialist Draws it All Up
Once you're happy with your floor plan, our design specialist takes over to finalize the design for structural purposes. This is the step where most builders stop – but not Llano. We take this opportunity to make sure your home is perfect even before construction begins. We go over every detail – from the paint color of your walls to the trim and fixtures – to make sure your home is truly personalized.
This step allows you to make any changes that you feel are necessary before construction begins. With a "measure twice, cut once" mentality, we never want you to settle for anything less than the unique design your family wants. Using the latest technology and industry-standard software to provide our clients with the best possible service, Llano provides clients with a rendering that allows you to see everything from your front yard to your backyard.
You can view your new home's exterior and interior, even before construction begins – allowing you to make any changes or tweaks you feel necessary to make it truly yours.
Step 5: Construction Begins!
After the design is complete, construction begins. You'll have a dedicated project manager whose job is to oversee everything going according to plan. But just because construction has begun doesn't mean that your design specialist or project manager will disappear. Throughout construction, they'll be there to ensure that the process is as smooth as possible for you.
Our team will walk with you every step of the way to ensure that your new home is exactly what you want. We'll be there to answer any questions or address any concerns, no matter how trivial they may seem.
The design and construction team will help you through various issues that may arise, including:
Addressing Design Changes:
We know that sometimes ideas pop into your head after construction has begun, and we want you to be able to implement those changes as efficiently as possible. Our design team is there every step of the way to help you realize any inspirations or new ideas that strike throughout the process.
City Permits:
When you buy land to build, some local requirements have to be met before construction can begin. Our team will help ensure that your new home meets all of these requirements and gives you updates throughout the process.
Construction Challenges:
While most homebuilders will simply hire a general contractor responsible for overseeing the entire construction process, Llano is dedicated to offering a truly personal experience beyond your house.
Step 6: Your New Home is Built!
At the end of construction, you'll have a brand new home that’s truly custom and uniquely tailored to you and your family. Our project managers/design specialists will be reachable throughout the entire process – from design to construction to moving day – so feel free to contact them with any concerns or questions about the building process.
We know you're anxious to move in, and we can't wait for you to get settled. Our team will coordinate all of your move-in needs and handle any last-minute details before you're able to walk through the front doors of your new home. When the keys are handed over, your design specialist will be there to make sure everything is perfect. If anything goes wrong at this point, it means that our team missed something during the building process, and we’ll work with you to resolve any issues as quickly as possible.
With keys in hand, you are the final decision maker in your home. We give you a breakdown of all the steps throughout construction to make sure you know exactly what went into building your new home from start to finish.
