The Draw of the Texas Hill Country | Reasons to Build a Custom Home

Looking for a place to retire? Want a great community to raise a family? Seeking a vibrant cultural mecca in a comfortable climate with a stunning natural landscape. Come to the Texas Hill Country. Over the past couple decades, hundreds of thousands of people have moved to this amazingly diverse area, and many of them have built custom homes. Why? Because of all the Hill Country has to offer, and because of the benefits of a custom home.

The Call of the Texas Hill Country

Think Texas is mostly barren landscapes with miles of highway? Think again. In the Hill Country, you’ll find natural underground aquifers among the limestone formations, as well as stately oak and cypress trees. It’s an optimal location for outdoor enthusiasts, but also offers a thriving cultural experience, with art, music and film festivals. It’s also home to some of the best Tex-Mex and barbeque in the Lone Star State.

The Reasons for Building Rather Than Buying a Home

When you choose a custom-built home, you’ll get:

  • A living space uniquely designed and built for your needs and to your tastes—you won’t have to try to figure out how to retrofit someone else’s dream to fit your vision
  • More options for exactly where you want to live—choose the topography and layout that works best for you
  • A house that meets your long-term needs—with a good designer, you can create a custom home that ages with you
  • More house for your money and higher quality materials—there have been many advances in the quality, durability and longevity of building materials over the past couple of decades. A custom-built home will typically require less maintenance and less expense in the long run.
  • Increased energy efficiency—You can take advantage of smart technology and other advances to keep your energy costs down
