Our Process
Our Process at Carrera Homes
Building a custom home in Granbury, TX, or Dallas/Ft. Worth is an exciting journey, and at Carrera Homes, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. Our streamlined process ensures your vision becomes reality with clarity, quality, and care. Below are the six steps we follow to create your dream home.
STEP 1
Initial Consultation
We start by getting to know you and your vision. During a one-on-one meeting (in-person or virtual), we discuss your lifestyle, preferences, and goals for your custom home. Whether it’s a modern retreat by Lake Granbury or a family-friendly design in Dallas/Ft. Worth, we listen closely to understand your needs, timeline, and budget. This step sets the foundation for a home that’s uniquely yours.
STEP 2
Financing Your Dream Home
Securing the right funding is key to a smooth build. We’ll connect you with trusted lenders to explore options like new construction loans tailored to your project. Our team provides guidance on budgeting and financial planning, ensuring you’re confident and prepared to move forward. Don’t worry—we’ll keep things simple and transparent.
STEP 3
Designing Your Floor Plan
This is where your ideas take shape. Working with our experienced design team, you’ll create a custom floor plan that fits your lifestyle. Want an open-concept kitchen or a spacious outdoor patio? We’ll sketch layouts that maximize space and flow, tailored to Granbury’s charm or Dallas/Ft. Worth’s energy. You’ll see 3D renderings to visualize your home early on.
STEP 4
Material Selection and Budget Planning
Now it’s time to bring your design to life with the perfect materials. From hardwood floors to energy-efficient windows, we help you choose finishes that match your style and budget. We’ll provide a detailed cost breakdown, balancing quality and affordability, so you know exactly what to expect. Our goal is a home that’s beautiful and built to last.
STEP 5
Finalizing Plans and Approvals
Before construction begins, we lock in every detail. This includes finalizing your floor plan, material choices, and budget, as well as securing permits and approvals for Granbury or Dallas/Ft. Worth regulations. We handle the paperwork and double-check everything, giving you peace of mind that your project is ready to break ground.
STEP 6
Construction and Move-In
With everything in place, we start building your dream home. Our skilled team oversees every phase—foundation, framing, finishing—ensuring top craftsmanship and timely progress. We’ll keep you updated with regular check-ins and site visits. Once construction is complete, we’ll walk you through your new home, hand over the keys, and celebrate your move-in day!
