Plan Your Home in Hot Springs Village

Do I need to own a lot before contacting you?

No. In fact, we encourage you to talk with us before purchasing a homesite.

The characteristics of your property—from slope and access to orientation and site preparation—can have a significant impact on what you can build and what it will cost.

If you're considering property in Hot Springs Village, we can help you evaluate a homesite from a builder's perspective before you move forward.

How much does it cost to build an Old Glory home?

The cost of a custom home depends on much more than square footage. Homesite conditions, architectural complexity, foundation requirements, finishes, outdoor living spaces, garages and other selections all affect the final investment.

During our initial conversations, we'll discuss your desired home, property and investment range candidly. Our goal isn't to tell you what you want to hear—it's to help you understand what's realistically possible before you invest significant time or money into the process. Based upon average desired finishes and square footage, our homes start at $475,000 and can range up to $1M+.

A MORE TRANSPARENT APPROACH

Rather than charging a traditional builder fee calculated as a percentage of construction costs, Old Glory uses a builder fee based on finished square footage and architectural design.

Why?

We believe our compensation shouldn't automatically increase simply because you choose a more expensive appliance, countertop or flooring.

We'll walk you through our fee structure during your consultation so you understand how we're compensated before moving forward.

Can you help us design our floorplan? Absolutely.

We work with a local draftsman our clients can work with to design their home. It’s a collaborative process that we can be involved and advise, if desired. We also have several Old Glory floorplans to select from and modify based upon your needs.

Do you help with interior selections?

Yes. You won't be handed a list of vendors and left to figure everything out yourself.

We are a design-builder, meaning we will help guide you through the process start to finish, helping you make informed and confident selections so your flooring, cabinetry, countertops, lighting, plumbing fixtures, paint and other finishes work together as one cohesive home, and the home style and design that you envision.

How long will it take to build my home?

Once permitting is complete and construction begins, many Old Glory homes are completed in approximately 6–8 months. Larger or highly customized homes may require additional time.

Weather, material availability, homesite conditions, design changes and other factors can affect the schedule, so we'll establish expectations specific to your home before construction begins.

How will I know what's happening during construction?

In addition to consistent communication from both Suzannah & Jarrod, our clients have access to our Construction Management App where they can see all files related to their home construction, photo and videos of their home throughout construction.

There are several Milestone walk-throughs scheduled before proceeding to the next construction stage.

Can you build our home while we're living out of state?

Absolutely. Our App makes it easy for you to be informed and connected to the status of construction of your home, in addition to consistent communication. In the initial design stages, we can work remotely to create a curated home design and finalize selections in person.

Quality isn't something we inspect into a home at the end. It's something we manage throughout construction.

Our Milestone 6-Step Process includes:

Construction Kick-Off: Before we break ground, we meet with you to review the details of your home, expectations, and ensure we are in agreement about your home we are about to start building. This is an opportunity to discuss details, clarify any questions, and ensure construction kick off goes smoothly.

Foundation Inspection: Before your foundation is poured, we inspect all elements for structural integrity, accurate placement, and all mechanical locations.

Pre-Mechanical Meeting: Once there are framed walls to feel the space and flow of each room, we conduct a pre-mechanical walk with you to discuss lighting, switches, outlet preferences, plumbing locations, etc. to ensure you are satisfied with the mechanical layouts as planned.

Pre-Drywall Inspection & Meeting: Before insulation and drywall, we inspect all mechanicals and photo and video document locations of all for future reference. We will meet to review these with you and ensure you’re satisfied with all locations.

Fit & Finish Inspection: As mentioned, quality starts long before this Milestone begins. By the time we get to our Fit & Finish inspection, we’ve already fine-tuned and made lists of items to be addressed. This is our final opportunity before our Homeowner Orientation with you to address any visual or functional items.

Homeowner Orientation: This is our “Final Walk” with you prior to Closing on your new home. it is not intended as a “blue tape” walk, rather, an informative and educational orientation of your new home. Simply because it is new, does not mean it doesn’t need to be cared for; this is our time to review how your home functions and how to care for your home. We will also note any Fit & Finish items to be addressed prior to closing and review our Warranty process.
