According to Graven Hill’s research, 50% of people identify customisation as the main advantage of designing their own home. However, whether due to finances or the amount of time it takes, self building is not always a viable option for everyone. This is where custom build homes come in, offering buyers an alternative that provides the personal touches they desire without the responsibility of taking on a construction project.
What is custom building?
Custom building is not yet a well-known option in the UK. This could be down to the country’s desperate need for houses, with speed often being prioritised over personality and design as a result. However, Graven Hill believes that this approach has left people feeling uninspired by the housing market, and that involving the buyer in the process leads to a longerlasting love between a person and their home.
