Frequently Asked Questions
Answers for Los Angeles Homeowners
How much does it cost to build a new home in Los Angeles?
Ground-up new homes in Los Angeles generally start around $300 to $500+ per square foot and rise with custom design and luxury finishes. Site conditions, hillside work, and foundation type all affect the number.
How long does it take to build a new house?
A new single-family home typically takes 10 to 18 months from design through final inspection, depending on size, complexity, and permitting. We give you a milestone schedule from boundary survey to move-in.
Do you handle permits and plans for new construction?
Yes. We manage architecture, structural and soils engineering, LADBS plan check, and all inspections as your single-source builder. That coordination keeps a complex ground-up build on schedule.
Can you build on a hillside or difficult lot?
Yes. Many LA lots require caisson foundations, retaining walls, and grading, and we bring the seismic and geotechnical engineering needed to build safely on challenging terrain.
What is the difference between new home construction and a custom home?
All our new homes are built to your specifications, but our
custom home building service goes further with bespoke architecture and estate-grade materials for a truly one-of-a-kind residence.
