Will There be Hidden or Surprise Expenses with USModular?
A typical annoyance that home builders come across is the unseen or buried charges added when building an on-site home. Many first-time homeowners have created a set budget they dont plan to exceed, only to discover that there are many costly extra costs that seem to appear out of nowhere.
Common Hidden Costs for On-Site Home Builds in Santa Maria
- Permits – there are many Santa Maria permits required before on-site production can begin.
- Perk testing – this measures the rate of water absorption and determines how big of a sand mound and leach field you will require.
- Surveying: – many Santa Maria builders have to pay a surveyor to map the property lines, set backs from road ways, and any legal right of ways.
- Internal Customizations – such as appliances, fireplaces, etc.
- Overages – last minutes changes and unexpected costs
- Utilities – such as electricity used for construction, gas, water, etc.
- Water treatment systems – usually only a problem with well water
These surprise charges for on-site builds can add up quickly and push you off the budget that was originally set.
