Building process

[Mslewis1999]

How long does it take to build a house and go to closing?  If they start building in May do you think it will be completed by August or September?  Thanks

We are just starting the process.  Was approved for our loan and it will take about three weeks to close with our credit union.

Our builder gave us a written guarantee that our house would be done by six months.  He did say verbally, though not binding, that it would be closer to 5 months.  Weather will have a lot to do with it.

I think an August move in is pretty slim, but that is just my opinion.

Last week a builder told me he could have a home built for me by mid June...this is a new subdivision though...not an independent contractor...I also have a house built before and they started in August...and was finish the first week in Nov....

The rate mine is going, it can happen, if they are ready to start.  Getting permits, etc can be very time consuming....usually developments won't have a problem because they have had standardized plans already approved, but  custom, depending on where you are, could take a while.
