Custom Home Builder?

[Mach1]

I am looking to build a ~2000sq ft home on a 1 acre lot, I have been working with Robbie Hale homes and I am not impressed thus far, does anyone have any suggestions for a builder? I am looking for under 200k, the land value in the areas I am looking at is around $20k per acre.

Royce City/Forney Area
Denton Area
Burleson Area

It's possible to build a custom 2000sqft home on 1 acre for $200,000?

You can barely get an entry level production home for that!

We are low end highland in my neighborhood and we don't build anything under $100/sq.ft right now granted that includes the lot, but our lots are relatively inexpensive.

Custom can mean a variety of things. When I think custom I think 750k+. If by custom you mean on your own land and not in a master planned community, then it may be doable if you strip the options WAY down, or have good connections at major vendors.

Just looked up what my tiny assed lot is valued at on the tax roll. $24k. Ive been eyeing a couple acres of land around the alvarado area for 8-10k an acre.

We are in the same boat..
Been looking at Coventry Homes who does a Build on your own lot program
Also recently found Prominent Custom Homes from a friend..We are leaning towards these guys..

I built my house for about $96/sqft. That didn't include the lot, water well, utility power, or a driveway. I would say my home is custom. I designed everything, including the floor plan, the handsscrapped hardwood floors, big baseboards, beams in the living room, stack stone and brick (no siding). I also have a oversized garage and big porches. All three showers are tile with granite in the bathrooms as well.

We are under $100k I think even under $50k. I have only seen lot cost once and it has been a while. I just know that we are on the cheaper end of the highland spectrum.

Man good to see the construstion industry bounce back so strong. When my dad owned the family construction buisiness we were regularly building houses 3-4bed 2bath brick 1800-2500sq ft on half acre lots for 75-80k hell we built a friends house 3bed 2bath 1600 sq ft for $48k.

[Silverback]

if you have the lot already, you could go as low as mid $80s/90 sq ft to build, obviously not taking into account any special needs with utilities/foundation, etc.

I'd expect for a decent home (good finish out) to be in the $100-120 sq ft price range

All the builders I work with are true custom home builders and I very seldom roof a house that is under 700k.
