Why Build a Custom Home?
Perhaps the best reason to build a custom home with O’Meara Custom Building, Inc. is that you will get everything you want without paying extra for the things you don’t want. Of course, that is the easy answer!
Buying a home is a huge investment. But it is much more than a financial investment. By purchasing a home you are investing money, time, sweat, and emotions into a neighborhood and a community. When you move into a neighborhood, you immediately begin to spend time and effort in making new friends for you and your children (or grandchildren). By doing this, you begin to have an impact on the character of the community. You are investing in relationships as much as you are investing in real estate.
Before you start the process, it is important to consider how you want to affect the character of the neighborhood. If you like finance, you know that companies with diversified revenue streams are more stable. If you like biology, you know that greater biodiversity leads to more resilient habitat. If you like history, you see that societies with more diverse populations tend to last longer.
Do these same principals apply to neighborhood communities? Building a custom home leads to more diversity in the neighborhood. It causes the homeowners to be more invested in the quality of their property, and it causes them to be more invested in the relationships they have with their neighbors. Does this result in stronger, more stable, neighborhoods?
We think it does. The Katie Lane community is evidence of this.
