Why We Chose to Build

Why We Chose to Build

Before we get into the fun stuff  we thought it would be a good idea to give everyone a little background on how we got this point and decided to build our home rather than going with the conventional route of buying an exiting home.

We originally bought our first home in 2010 which was a foreclosure home in a small town that was in-between where I work and where my wife and I grew up. We completely remodeled the house from top to bottom and love the process and loved the house but found ourselves always back in our home town spending time with family and friends. We finally decided to put the house up for sale and move back home, our plan from the beginning was always to buy an existing home in town. After finally selling our house in February there wasn't really anything on the market which we really liked, so we initially moved in with our parents and thought we would buy something in the spring/summer as there would definitely be more houses on the market at that time. After much waiting Spring/Summer came and went and we still couldn't find anything we liked or thought was priced right, so we decided to take a look at building a brand new house, which we thought for sure we could never afford. After meeting with custom home builders and getting quotes from 250-330k our dreams were smashed and we were thinking we would never get out of our parents!

I drive I-75 everyday and passed Wayne homes twice a day for the last 5 years but really didn't want to go with a big corporate builder, after giving it some thought and looking at the basic pricing online we decided to setup our first meeting with a Wayne Home sales rep. This is where our journey begins!!
