Frequently Asked Questions
1What is your price per square foot?
This is one of the most common—but also most complex—questions. Unlike many builders, we will not avoid it. The truth is that price per square foot varies significantly depending on your home’s design, finishes, and lot conditions.
After our initial consultation, we will provide a rough budget estimate based on your goals. As we better understand your preferences and plans, we will narrow that estimate down to a firm, fixed price, accompanied by detailed specifications tailored to your home.
2Is pricing negotiable?
No. But here is why: Benchmark delivers more value for your investment than any other builder. While we do not negotiate base pricing, we are always suggesting cost-saving ideas and smart materials or design alternatives. We believe in maximizing value, not cutting corners—and we will work with you to optimize your home without compromising quality.
3Can I finance the building through you?
Yes. We work closely with trusted lenders to offer both one-time closure and construction-to-permanent loan options. Whether you are building on your lot or ours, we will guide you through the financing process from start to finish.
4Do you offer upgrades and custom finishes?
Absolutely. During the finish selection phase, we will help you personalize every detail—from countertops and cabinets to flooring, fixtures, and more. It is your home—we make sure it reflects your style.
5How much should I budget for selections?
We recommend budgeting up to 20% above the base price, depending on your selection. Some clients stay within base pricing, while others prefer high-end custom finishes—it is completely up to you, and we will help guide your choices to align with your goals and budget.
