If moving into your very own custom built home is in the cards for you – you may need to get started now with next summer as your target move-in date. In fact, we are encouraging buyers to look at our models now and get a feel for what they’d like to see in their own homes coming next year.

The time it takes on average for Charleston Homes to build your custom home is about five to six months. Now of course that timeframe changes with the onset of winter but we are still able to provide you with an exact closing date window. With a date in mind, you can then enjoy the peace of mind knowing that you will be in your new home next year according to schedule.

Most homebuyers neglect to realize is that time is definitely of the essence. In order for us to plan everything, get all your choices on record and decide what you want to do, how you want to do it and set up financing – we need to start now.

Call us today or visit one of our models, open seven days a week. There’s more information on our website at www.CharlestonHomesOmaha.com. We look forward to seeing you soon and wish you a warm, happy holiday season!

Interest Rates – Have They Hit Bottom?



Watch on your mobile device >>

With the New Year right around the corner, we are anticipating where rates will be and what the housing market has in store. The trends we have been seeing for some time now, of extremely low interest rates and depressed prices, may very well be a thing of the past.


For buyers that have been on the fence waiting the market out, now could not be a better time to begin the build process on a new home. Not only do interest rates seem to be inching upward but also the costs that go into building a home. The price of land is also going up, as there is less and less land available in our area. The last thing you want to have happen is to miss out on such a phenomenal opportunity of being able to lock in the amazing rates that are still out there right now. At last check, buyers with decent credit for a typical mortgage are able to get an interest rate as low as 3.5% or lower depending on the loan product.

Building and construction, like any other commodity, definitely rises and falls in price – and we project prices to rise as surely will interest rates. So you should really consider moving sooner rather than later.

To be able to move in by next summer, now is the time to begin the process. We invite you to visit our models either at Portal Ridge or Saddlebrook and choose the home of your dreams!
