About the Southwest Homes Process

The first step of the custom home building process is deciding what floor plan you’re wanting built, whether it’s a floor plan already offered by Southwest or a plan you designed, or a combination of the two. Next, you’ll meet with your Construction Manager on your lot to determine placement of the home as well as anything else they may need from you before construction. Once the plans for the site are finalized, you’ll meet with the Construction Manager and Building Consultant to make sure you’re in the loop. They’ll give you a timeline of construction, as well as answer any additional questions you may have. Once your new custom home is built, Southwest Homes will even deliver your new keys to you!

New Homes with Historic Flair by Evans Coghill

Categories: Custom Homebuilders | Tags: , , , ,

Like most historic cities, homebuyers in the Charlotte, NC area are often faced with the decision of buying a new home in a newer community or an older home in the more charming historic districts of the city. While many people favor living in a historic neighborhood for the wide assortment of architectural design and quaint streets with large trees, older homes can be more than a new homeowner wants to take on. Older homes often have structural issues and maintenance is almost always to be expected. New communities don’t always offer the same charm, but homeowners confidently know their home is move in ready with new builds. Evans Coghill is offering the best of both worlds with their new homes located in historic areas of Charlotte, including the neighborhoods of Plaza Midwood and Cotswold.
