If you are building in Utah, there are literally HUNDREDS of questions that you can ask your builder. The terms of the contract need to be laid out in the beginning before any work is complete.
How much do you trust your builder?
Are you going to get a personal experience where you are involved in every facet of the project? How much do you want to be involved?
Do you want to use your own subcontractors? Do you want to pick the details of the handles in the kitchen? The faucet design?
Some corporate homebuilders offer a limited range of products. How flexible is your homebuilder with your style?
What is the inspection process like?
Do they inspect trade work throughout the homebuilding process after each step is completed? Do they make sure their trades provide quality workmanship?
Do you love the product your home builder provides?
Many Utahns spend big bucks for a home plan that they end up not loving> Why do that to yourself?
Do you love the location, floor plan, and selections? This is so critical!
How much communication do you expect throughout the home building process?
This can be a huge red flag. Do you KNOW your home builder? Is it a mega corporation or is it someone you can call and reach out to any time for any reason?
What do you offer that makes you stand out?
Why should I build with you?
How long will it take to build my new home?
Ask your builder the expected time frame for when your home will be complete. This can help determine when you will sell your home or end your lease.
