THE BUILDING PROCESS What to Expect

Families grow. Friends gather. Opportunities open. Life is always in motion, and you’re ready for a new home that will move along with it. Building a home can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. At Drees Homes, we understand that choosing a new home is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make. We take the worry out of the process so you can concentrate on what matters most to you: realizing the dream of your Drees custom home.

Planning Your New Drees Home

Buying any home is a big decision. With a little careful thought before you begin the process, you can feel confident that the decisions you make are the right ones for you.

Should You Build Or Buy A Move-In-Ready Home?

While some people enjoy the creative challenge of a blank canvas, others prefer to focus their attention on making small changes to an existing masterpiece. Whether you’re a creator or an embellisher, we have a variety of homes and home sites in conveniently-located communities to work with your lifestyle.

Why Build a Custom Home?

To some prospective homebuyers, the words “dream home” evoke images of building a custom home just the way they want it. The thrill of selecting a floor plan that suits the way they live, choosing home design details, and working with a builder to realize their vision. And now is your time.


With a Drees custom home, you can:
• Tailor your home to fit your life.
• Select colors, materials, and textures that reflect your style.
• Choose a floor plan for your family or entertaining needs.
• Experience our worry-free building process.


And every Drees home is future-proofed with our home technology infrastructure and energy-efficient systems of our DreeSmart Innovations.

Why Buy a Move-In Ready Home?

Many factors go into deciding to buy a move-in ready home. If you’re transferring to another city, you might not have time to plan and wait for the construction of a build-to-order home. Or you might prefer the simplicity of moving into a “ready now” home that fits your lifestyle and needs.

Whatever your reasons, you don’t have to sacrifice distinctive home design for convenience. Drees offers quality new homes that have been built with many of the features and upgrades you are looking for in a custom home:


• Spacious floor plans
• Beautiful design details
• Quality construction materials
• Conveniently-located communities

Location, Location, Location!

Communities are not one-style-fits-all. Your community should reflect who you are and how you want to live. It’s as much a lifestyle choice as your home’s floor plan or design.
