1)      Discovery & Strategy Meeting

At Ascent Custom Homes & Remodeling, the journey to your dream home begins with Discovery & Strategy. This foundational step is not only about starting the design of your house but also about building lasting relationships. In this initial consultation, you’ll meet your dedicated building team, who will explore your preferences, whether designing a custom home plan or customizing one of ours. We’ll discuss every detail from materials to budget, ensuring your goals & expectations are fully integrated as we guide you through the custom home building process.

2)      Lot & Land

Location is vital in the journey of designing & building your Ascent custom home. Whether you already own a lot or are considering one of our exclusive properties, our team is dedicated to ensuring your new home perfectly matches your vision and lifestyle. If you’re still searching for land, our licensed real estate agents are ready to help you find your perfect site.

3)      Design Time

Design Time transforms your new home vision into a detailed blueprint, blending creativity with practicality to tailor every aspect of your home to your personal style—from the floor plan to the unique features & materials. Your dedicated designer will guide you throughout this process, serving as both advocate & expert, ensuring that each choice meets your aesthetic and budgetary needs. With real-time estimates for each decision, you maintain complete transparency & control as you watch your dream home come to life.

4)      Financing

As a preferred builder of Civista Bank, we offer streamlined financing through a trusted partner recognized for their construction loan services. We can also connect you with other reputable lenders in the region to ensure you find the best financial solution. If you prefer to use your own lender, we are ready to collaborate with them to coordinate the financial details of your home construction, providing flexibility & support to turn your dream home into reality.

5)      Selections

Excitement peaks as you begin selecting elements with your personal designer, defining your home’s character from kitchen fixtures to flooring. Each choice is an opportunity to infuse your style into every corner of your residence. We take time to explain all options, associated costs, and suitable alternatives. Your designer will equip you with the necessary information to confidently make decisions, ensuring your home not only meets but exceeds all your expectations.

6)      Pre-Construction Meeting

Near the construction phase, the Pre-Construction Meeting is critical to ensure every detail of your home aligns perfectly with your expectations. Here, we finalize all selections, from architectural details to interior finishes, ensuring everything is meticulously coordinated before construction begins. This is also an opportunity to make adjustments before the dig begins, ensuring that every aspect of your home is perfectly executed.

7)      Construction

During the thrilling construction phase, you’ll witness the transformation as your new home vision becomes your dream home reality, marked by several key milestones like the essential electrical walkthrough. Additional homeowner walkthroughs are an integral part of our process, providing opportunities for you to ask questions, offer input, & make adjustments through Change Orders if necessary. Watch in awe as your collaboration with Ascent Custom Homes blossoms from the foundation up.
