Writer: Carl RebelloCarl Rebello

Building a home is an exciting journey, but knowing when to choose the right land and start the process is key to staying on budget and ensuring a smooth experience. At Rebello Construction, we help clients navigate the decision-making process so they can build with confidence.


Step 1: Understanding Your Budget

Before selecting land, it's crucial to have a clear understanding of your budget. A well-planned budget should include:


Land Purchase – The cost of the land itself.

Site Preparation – Clearing, grading, or any necessary groundwork.

Construction Costs – Materials, labor, and permits.

Utilities & Infrastructure – Water, sewer, electricity, and road access.

Design & Custom Features – Upgrades, finishes, and personal touches.


💡 Tip: Work with a financial advisor or lender early on to determine what you can afford, and get pre-approved if financing is needed.


Step 2: Choosing the Right Land

The land you choose impacts your home design, budget, and overall lifestyle. Here’s what to consider:


🏡 Location Matters – Think about commute times, schools, and neighborhood amenities.

📏 Land Conditions – Ensure the land is buildable and meets zoning requirements.

💡 Utility Access – Some lots may require additional costs to connect to water, sewer, or electricity.

🌿 Future Growth – Research any planned developments or zoning changes that could affect your home’s value.
