"Build on Your Lot" is a simple concept allowing a land owner or potential landowner to find an independent home construction company to build their home on their lot. With Texan Built Homes you can select a plan from the many home designs we have available, work with any architect we currently use, or use one you may have already found to create a one-of-a-kind, custom home based on your unique lifestyle.

Choose one of our exisitng new home designs and Texan Built Homes can be build it to "stock" with no plan cost whatsoever! This allows you to ‘redline’, (make changes) to a home design plan without incurring any additional architectural fees. You can use the money you save to get just the home you always wanted.

Once the cost of your new home is determined, you simply apply for a mortgage loan using one of the many companies Texan Built Homes has had previous years of experience with in assisting new home buyers obtain loans, or work with any mortgage broker of your choice.
Many times your well and septic system can be included in your mortgage. Call and talk with a Texan Built Homes representative to see if your well and septic costs, lot pay off amount, certain other improvements or your closing costs can be included in your mortgage.
