Step 1: The Planning Process

Construction of a new home, while filled with potential for creativity and fulfillment, might also seem overwhelming, especially to those who have not built before. The process is dynamic, requires many decisions to be made, and is filled with technicalities. Moreover, your time or proximity may be limited.

We begin with a preconstruction meeting to orient you to:

• The building process...and our mutual responsibilities.
• Realistic expectations of the opportunities and challenges in the time line for the construction of your home.
• The sequence and scheduling of owner selections.
• We review your home's design together.

Optimally, PARAGON is involved when the design is initiated. Beginning the process early enables us to help better plan the project schedule, and we can offer timely input regarding cost. We can furnish your architect or designer, input on the most efficient and cost effective way to build a certain design element or system. Because our team is comprised of architects, we are also able to offer expertise in the design configuration, function, and its location on site. Further, we have an in depth knowledge of materials and systems that have stood the test of time in a coastal environment.
