    Being a builder I'm always interested to know how people stumbled on my name when searching through the many local contractors obtainable in their area. This cogent http://www.avelinghomes.com.au/ link has several dynamite suggestions for when to study it. So I ask the question, 'How did you hear about me'? The answers I have encounter are very creative and would benefit anyone who's wanting to create a new home and trying to find home builders in their area.
    5 Suggestions to Getting Started:
    Ask the local bank I often hear this response and it is sensible if you were to think about it. Your local banker underwrites a lot of home loans for home consumers and builders in your neighborhood. Brokers would be the ones who know if the house builder remained within budget or went $30,000 over budget. He or she knows which builders are in financial difficulty and which builders aren't. Many local banks require custom builders to become 'certified' or keep an 'accepted' local builders list on record. Wondering your banker for sources is a superb spot to start because he or she won't suggest contractors which are not top-quality. Banks want happy clients, and that results in a custom builder who can deliver within budget and on-schedule.
    Open Houses/Realtor Attend open houses of previously built custom homes in your town. This will let you see the level of quality a certain custom builder provides. You can see first-hand the way the materials and craftsmanship of the home is aging after 3-5 years. If you like (or dislike) your house, ask the agent, 'Who is the builder with this home '? The broker will likely know the answer or can find out for you personally from the owners.
    Friends Bad company reports spread faster than a forest fire. You would surely advise your entire friends if a builder went tens of thousands of dollars over-budget and you'd to obtain a second mortgage. Ask friends and colleagues when they know any local residential contractors.
    Groups' Websites Every county or city features a home building association. These home building organizations can provide a listing of local builders which are members of the organization. These are good home building resources just because a legitimate home builder would have been a member of these kinds of home building organizations.
    NAHB could be the National Association of Home Builders http://nahb.org
    A State HBA
    Your City or County's HBA
    A State Home Builder Licensure Board/Agency
    Architect or Draftsman Whenever using a local architect or draftsman who renders your property ideas, ask them for a listing of local residential contractors in your community. If they are willing to give recommendations, ask if they'd recommend several builders that they think would work nicely together with your personality, house size and budget. Your draftsman has become knowledgeable about your type throughout the programs point and they are able to propose local building professionals for your bidding process.
