Our Process
Building a custom home is a long and personal undertaking. Here is how we guide it: four deliberate phases, with the same RES team beside you from the first site walk to the final walkthrough.
The Path
Phase One · The Homesite
Prescott offers remarkable places to build, from granite hillsides to wide valley views, and nearly every direction has something to look at. If you haven't settled on a lot yet, we're glad to help. After nearly four decades building here, we've stood on just about every kind of site this landscape offers, and we know what each one asks of a home.
Site visits
We walk prospective lots with you and talk through views, orientation, and access.
Fit
An honest read on what a site will mean for your build, before you commit to it.
Community
Perspective on Prescott-area neighborhoods and the guidelines that come with each.
Phase Two · The Design
Everything begins with the floor plan, because the layout guides nearly every decision that follows. From there come the details that make a house yours: colors, flooring, fixtures, windows, and landscape. We make each of those choices with you, so you always understand how they affect schedule and budget.
Floor plan
We refine the layout with you until it fits the way you live and gather.
Selections
Finishes, fixtures, and materials, chosen together and kept clearly on record.
Budget
Straightforward guidance on cost and timeline before construction begins.
Phase Three · The Build
Once the plan is set, construction begins, and you stay involved the entire way. A few moments never lose their magic for our clients: breaking ground, seeing the frame stand for the first time, and watching the drywall go up as rooms finally take shape.
One team
The same RES team carries your home from groundbreaking to completion.
Milestones
Groundbreaking, framing, and interior finishes, with you there for each.
Updates
Straight answers along the way, so you always know where things stand.
Phase Four · The Keys
With the interior finishes complete and the landscaping in place, we walk the finished home together, room by room. Then we hand you the keys. It's a moment we've been honored to share with Prescott-area families since 1987, and it still means as much to us as the first time.
Walkthrough
We review every room together before you move in.
Landscape
Outdoor spaces finished so the home settles naturally into its site.
Move in
Keys in hand, and a home built to be lived in for generations.
Throughout the process
The people you meet at the start are the people who build your home. No hand-offs, and no starting over.
We talk openly about cost and schedule, so every decision is made with clear eyes.
You're part of every phase, from the first site walk to the final walkthrough.
Whether you have plans in hand or just a homesite and an idea, we'd love to hear what you have in mind and talk through how we can bring it to life.
