Home / New Home Construction
A home built for the next generation
Building on land you've purchased or inherited — or replacing an aging house with something your family will live in for decades. This is the largest project most families ever take on, and it deserves one accountable team, not a chain of vendors.
Where projects start
Three situations we build for
Building on purchased land
You've bought the lot; now you need someone to turn it into a home. We evaluate the site, design to your family's needs, and manage everything through to move-in.
Building on inherited property
Land that's been in the family deserves a home that stays in the family. We help you understand what the lot allows and design a home that serves the generations who will use it.
Replacing an aging house
Sometimes remodeling can't fix what's wrong. A full rebuild lets you start clean — modern structure, modern systems, a layout designed for how your family actually lives.
Why one team matters here
At this scale, fragmentation is the biggest risk
On a $300,000–$500,000 build, the usual arrangement — a separate architect, a permit expediter, and a contractor, with you coordinating between them — is where money and time disappear. When drawings don't match field conditions, or plan-check corrections stall, each vendor points at the next. You're left in the middle, paying for the delay.
We run design, permitting, and construction under one roof. The people who drew your plans answer to the same team that builds them. When your city asks for corrections, we handle them directly. There's exactly one company responsible for your project, and you can reach it in Mandarin, Cantonese, or English.

Straight answers
Common questions about building new
What does a new home cost to build?
Most of our projects fall between $300,000 and $500,000 depending on size, design, and site conditions. Before you sign anything you get a written, itemized scope — so the number you agree to is a number you understand, phase by phase.
How long does it take?
A new home is typically a year-plus commitment from first drawings to move-in, with permitting time varying by city. We give you a realistic city-specific timeline up front, then report progress at every milestone so you're never guessing.
Can you also add an ADU at the same time?
Often, yes — building a new home and an ADU together can be efficient, since design and permitting overlap. We'll evaluate whether your lot supports both. More about ADUs →
What if I haven't bought the land yet?
Talk to us before you buy if you can. A short feasibility conversation about zoning, lot conditions, and utilities can save you from an expensive surprise after closing.
