      Testimonials

      “Lara understood exactly what we wanted, and she was able to find the perfect house plan to fit our budget…[Travars Built Homes] kept us informed throughout the entire process, and the final result was better than we could have ever hoped for… We would highly recommend Travars Built Homes to anyone looking to build their own custom home.” – J Mooney, Chatham County

      “From the very start, Travars Built Homes took time to learn about our family and dreams for a custom built home in rural Chatham County. We found an initial floorplan we liked and made a number of major changes including addition of a dog room, expanding the width of the entire house, converting the garage to a large game room, and even creating roof access customized creativity to make hanging Christmas lights a much safer and fun. As the build progressed, the team customized the interior options to meet our hopes on so many levels…Travars has truly exceeded our expectations on the quality of our home…Truly, we can’t think Travars Built Homes enough for building our forever home.” – Stephen Ferguson, Chatham County

      “In our home search, we found a Travars Built home under construction that met most of our criteria. Because we were looking for specific living spaces that were not in the original plan, the Travars team worked with us on several modifications/additions and completed our dream home. We have been in our home for just over a year and are so impressed with the custom features and quality of the build. Any issues we have had were minor and taken care of promptly. The quality of the construction is outstanding and the Travars team has been just as outstanding. We highly recommend Travars Built Homes!” – Tom Fiacco, Chatham County

      Custom Home Pricing

      How much does it cost to build a custom home on your lot?

      It depends on your parcel, your plan, and your preferences. At Travars Built Homes, pricing is transparent, builder-led, and tailored to your vision — starting with a detailed turnkey quote that includes typical site work like well, septic, clearing, and more.


      How Do I Get Pricing?

      Have a plan in mind? Send it to us.

      Still exploring? Tell us what you want in your home — and your build budget. We’ll suggest floor plans that can align with your goals.

      Your initial consultation includes in depth information for a complete build package. Your turnkey quote will include the build, typical site work allowances, and custom flexibilities. After a homesite evaluation with the builder, we’ll add site-specific considerations.


      What Makes Travars Built Different?

      • Customizable Floor Plans – Browse our extensive online catalog, bring your own, or describe your wish list. We can customize nearly any plan — with in-house design support.
      • Beyond-Standard Features – Hardwood floors, premium cabinetry, extensive stone surfaces, energy efficiency, and more are already built in — with a “forever home” mentality.
      • Transparent Pricing – Your custom home quote is turnkey, with detailed specifications, generous customization choices, and transparent allowances — to help you make informed decisions.

      What Impacts Custom Build Costs?

      Every custom home is a unique project, shaped by your choices and your land.  Total build costs can be further influenced by:

      • Architectural Design – Porches, rooflines, footprint and layout all play a role in the complexity of your build.
      • Selections & Finishes – The depth of detail in your quote will reflect what’s special about our upscale “standards.” Our design/build capability can further enhance the possibilities — such as expanded outdoor living areas, additional built-ins, or luxury elements.
      • Lot Conditions – Well, septic, slope, tree clearing, and driveway length are just the start of what we take into consideration as we evaluate your homesite together.
      • Permitting & Local Impact Fees – These vary by county and are factored into your site-specific estimate

      You’ll work one-on-one with the builder — for guidance you can trust and decisions you can feel confident about.
