Home construction doesn’t have to be confusing, stressful or expensive. This guide is filled with tips that will help you understand the process and show you how to get started.
The house was ordered on Febuary 17, 2006, not set until June 1, 2006 and the Certificate of Ocupancy not issued until January 25, 2007. The internet was an invaluable tool, both for making product selections , and for making furniture and artwork selections later. We also joke that it has taken us 27 years to furnish and decorate our primary home and that we furnished and decorated the Hilton Head home (with Donna's sister Michelle's generous assistance) in 27 days.

We did a site-built house about 10 years earlier, and we have extensively renovated two older houses that we rent out - but nothing compares with our experience with Haven & modular design. We extensively researched & considered a number of high-quality modular companies but Haven Homes was the only company who offered beautifully designed houses that you really couldn't tell were modular. I think everyone expected we'd end up with a cheap, boxy, cookie cutter house & they are pleasantly surprised with our results. We can transform your existing home to make it more functional, more current or even larger. Our team has the skills and experience to renovate your home into what best fits your lifestyle.
The Post story also mentions that some lenders are reluctant to finance modular homes, but we had outstanding service from Wells Fargo. We joke that we got the last construction loan in North America in the fall of 2008 when the economy was in a nosedive. The Post story further mentions that because so much of the entire product is generated in the space of a couple of weeks, many decisions which are made in the course of the construction phase must be made upfront. We felt a little pressured at the time, but in retrospect, it was a blessing that we got 90% of the decisions behind us in short order and could go on with our personal and professional lives at a 600 mile distance. The modules were delivered with the bathrooms and kitchen in place and the gas fireplace and pendant light fixture in the dining area already installed.
Personal Reviews of Haven Custom Homes
Next time you’re in South Carolina, we’d love to take you around some of our favorite communities and give you a tour of our newest model homes. Many visit Myrtle Beach to relax on our sandy beaches, golf on our celebrity-designed courses, or play on our beachfront boardwalks, but we get to live here! Although we boast about our New Jersey roots, we are proud to call South Carolina home. We’ve been building custom homes in Myrtle Beach for 35 years and haven’t looked back. The link above will take you to a story in today's Washington Post about the same modular builders who did our house at Hilton Head.
We discovered Haven almost by accident after corresponding with other modular builders who were singularly poor marketers of their product. It helped that Haven does emphasize custom design and that one of their plants was only 45 miles away from our site. We feel that we have achieved what was almost out of reach for us, and that it was probably our only opportunity to do it.

Working with the Utah Valley Home Builders Association, we recently directed a team comprised of local subcontractors and businesses to build a new home to benefit Utah Valley University. A similar project is underway to aid Brigham Young University. Proceeds from the sale of these homes are donated to the schools to provide scholarships for their students. When building your luxury dream house, what tops your list of must-haves? I’ve known Jeff for 15+ years now and worked together the past 5. His homes happen to be designed by a darn nice guy as well.
Our unwavering goal is to exceed the expectations for quality and satisfaction delivering a smooth building experience for each client. Transparency coupled with communication is key in assuring our clients their home is getting our meticulous attention and unmatched effort because we know “quality lives here. New Haven Construction just completed a stunning custom home in Moncks Corner. The sweeping front porch offers the perfect start or end to a Lowcountry day. However, when I asked about a roof leak problem that developed later, I was met with delays in response, followed by a denial of the claim and a demand for documentation that was acceptable to them. They provided no details of what they needed for proper documentation.
Ensure that your dreams are accurately translated into reality by offering design services in-house or through an arrangement with a professional architect or designer. Whether you want to change the look or size of your existing home or want to start your dream home from the ground up, South Haven has a team armed with knowledge and experience to complete your vision. Getting their service guy here was like pulling teeth and when he came, he did the least possible amount and had to be called back several times.
Jeff’s team was very hands on in the layout and design process as well; both from a functionality side as well as design. With the connections a professional has, they know the right person to call when issues arise. They have experience completing projects like yours and know what works and what does not. Property and agent photos are all we need to develop a beautiful, effective design for you to review. I would suggest any one considering building a Haven Home to contact me first.
We are pledged to the letter and spirit of the U.S. policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the Nation. We encourage and support an affirmative marketing program in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin. New Haven Construction is neither a small back of the pickup home builder that builds a couple of houses per year, nor are we a large corporate builder that builds hundreds. We construct about a dozen custom homes each year with multiple renovations and remodels. This allows us to keep our service personal and hands with every project. My relationship with Haven Homes began with a trip to their factory in Ridgesland SC to discuss some issues that I had heard about while investigating buying one of their homes.

Say hello to Michelle, our lead designer, whose lifelong passion for interior design started with the idea that a change of environment can change a person's life. Have a question about a floor plan, the process of building a custom home, or how to find land? I'm here to help at any stage in your new home search process.
I was assured that whatever problems they had in the past were resolved and were no longer a problem. Based on this, I decided to buy one of their homes because I head that they were better than average. I needed to alter one of their existing designs, slightly, to accomodate an elevator. They took the preliminary design modification and redrew their plan and sent it to the State for approval PRIOR to getting my approval of the plan. When I asked that slight changes be made, I was told that there would be an additional $2500 design charge. I opted to live with the changes the way they were as it would have impacted my building schedule.
