Custom Home Building

The Kehoe Group takes pride in making the custom home building process as enjoyable as possible. We strive to be the very best at every stage of the process so that our clients succeed in building a home that they can be proud of.

Phase 1: Pre-Construction

Lot Search

  • Locating the right lot is often the hardest part of the entire custom build process. Years of diversified real estate experience gives us a unique advantage in this arena. We are constantly networking with real estate industry professionals as well as directly marketing to property owners so that our clients have private access to off-market building opportunities.

  • Exploring the option to build on land you might already own.

  • Considering the size, location, indoor to outdoor living spaces, and other design priorities, our goal is to quickly pick up on the style and personalization you’re looking for and help you determine if a piece of land will fit your desired home.

Design

  • We will provide guidance in the hiring of an Architect that specializes in the style of home you wish to build. We will also engage the Civil Engineer to provide site layouts and topographic inputs.

  • The Kehoe Group will provide a preliminary budget once sketch design plans have been finalized.

  • Upon completion of the permit plans, The Kehoe Group will provide you with a contract for the construction of your new home.

Phase 2: Construction

Permits 

  • The Kehoe Group will manage the entire permit process while maintaining open lines of communication between ourselves, the owner, architect, and engineers. This includes handling all utility and public infrastructure applications, document management, and project accounting.

Selections

  • Selections may start as soon as the permit plans are submitted to the appropriate governmental agency for review. Your finishes, which include flooring, fixtures, paint colors, cabinets, lighting, appliances, and all of the other details that make a house a home, start to come together.

  • The selection process is spaced throughout the permitting and construction phases. We understand this is a highly personal process and our goal is to help guide you through all of the decisions and details, while keeping you on task and on budget.

Project Management

  • The Kehoe Group will break ground once all permits have been obtained. Our hands-on project management style will deliver the dream home you desire, while also keeping your budget and schedule in mind.

Phase 3: Post-Construction

Every home built by The Kehoe Group comes with a warranty to safeguard your investment. We stand behind our work both during and after construction has completed.

  • For one year, your new home is warranted to be free from any defect in materials or workmanship. We like to call this your 'bumper to bumper' one year warranty. This includes punch-out work as the home settles and conditions.

  • For two years, your new home is warranted to be free from any defect in the electrical, plumbing, heating, cooling, ventilating, and mechanical systems.

  • For five years, your new home is warranted to be free from any major structural defect.
