Owner-Built Home Consulting
For Owner-Builders that want to be in control of the entire process before and during construction we offer the consulting assistance you need. You control the entire project allowing you to have full disclosure of everything that you wouldn't have with a homebuilder.
You will act as your own Builder / Construction Manager with total control, management flexibility and our support to fit your needs for the project. You, as your own builder can choose the subcontractors, vendors and suppliers that are referred by us, that were found by you, referred to you by others, or you can even do some of the work on your home yourself. We essentially assist in filling in where you need the most help, providing our years of experience and expertise. See more about how we may help with our Estimating & Material Takeoffs service.

Modular Home Design
Benefits of Modular
Modular homes are residences built in a controlled factory environment in sections, or modules, and then transported to the construction site. They are then installed on permanent foundation and by professional installers. Modular homes can reduce construction time by 30- 40 percent, getting you into your new home faster so you can enjoy it longer. Traditionally homes can take many months to complete, but modular homes are assembled on site and usually finished within a few weeks from the time they are set. Prefabricated homes offer many advantages because most modular construction can be completed in less time than site-built construction, for example, the cost of interim construction financing is significantly reduced or eliminated.

Home & Site Modeling
Along with the architectural design services Design-Build-Live offers site planning and home modeling. Rarely are building sites ready for setting a mobile home, so we analyze each site to evaluate grading, terrain, site access, and other relevant features. We model your home and your site, both in 3D, to determine the best placement and orientation of your home.
We will also work with you through the actual development and preparations of the site including marking the boundaries of the property and home layout, clearing, and leveling the land as needed, site access including driveways, and adequate clearing for work equipment. We will also work into our models as needed utility placement, easements, hardscaping, or other relevant features.
This service is offered with our architectural design, or for plans that you may already have. By using your building plans, we can model the home to scale for placement in the site model and terrain.
