Step One: Pre-Construction ConsultationThrough our complimentary Pre-Construction Consultation we’ll discuss the scope of your anticipated project including design and a visual site inspection. We provide valuable information including the Building Restriction Line (BRL) as well as site conditions such as demolition, soil quality, infiltration and utility service.
Do you need to identify and purchase a lot for your project? If so, we will assist you in finding the lot that’s right for you. We have access to lots that are not listed in the MLS.
If your project is a renovation and/or addition, we will review the integrity of the existing structural elements to identify any potential fortification needed for the project.
Step Two: Architectural Design/Pre-Construction Contract
This step will provide you with the information needed to make the best decisions for your lifestyle and budget. Whether you’ve completed your architectural design or are starting from scratch, Westbrook Homes can guide you through the process with the help of our preferred architects, engineers and interior design specialists. We provide you with a preliminary cost estimate including a time-line to complete your project.
Westbrook Homes utilizes a simple Pre-Construction Contract, when needed, to complete an in depth analysis of lot conditions including environmental aspects such as asbestos, soil conditions, storm water management, height limitations and other potential conditions that may exist.

We work with you to put a contract in place that best fits your needs such as a Guaranteed Price Agreement, Cost-Plus Agreement or a Construction Management Agreement. We work with trusted construction lenders and cooperate with their pre-construction appraisers and underwriters to provide the information needed for a speedy loan commitment.
