The Cameron Mitchell Process

Building your dream home shouldn't feel overwhelming. That’s why we’ve designed a transparent, hands-on homebuilding process that keeps you informed, involved, and inspired from the very first meeting to move-in day.

Whether you're looking for a custom home builder in Goldsboro, NC, a build-on-your-lot expert in Eastern NC, or you're searching for the right VA home builder in Johnston County, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Let’s walk you through how we bring your vision to life.

    Building Your New Home

    1

    Let's Talk: The Initial Consultation

    Your story starts here. We begin with an in-depth consultation where we get to know you, your family, and your lifestyle. This isn't just about square footage. It's about understanding how you live, work, and play. We'll discuss your specific wants, explore site preparation needs, dive into home details and finishes, and address any financing questions you might have. As a trusted custom home builder in North Carolina, we believe every great home starts with listening.

    Timeline: Initial consultation plus 2-3 weeks for detailed proposal development

      Blueprint to Reality

      Once we've captured your vision, our team gets to work crafting a comprehensive proposal tailored specifically to your needs. We'll schedule a detailed review meeting to walk through every aspect of your project, making revisions and adjustments until everything feels perfect. When you're ready to move forward, we'll prepare your contract and begin the exciting journey ahead. Then, we’ll assist with:

      • Submitting details to your lender
      • Preparing for a construction loan closing
      • Organizing permits and scheduling the build

      Timeline: 4+ weeks for lender approval process

        Foundation of Trust

        Groundbreaking Day: one of our favorite milestones! After construction loan closing and a 2-week permitting period, we break ground on your new home. From footings to foundation, we lay the groundwork for what's to come with meticulous attention to detail. Whether we're building on your lot or helping you find the perfect location, this is where your home truly begins to take shape.

          Framework & Structure

          The bones of your home come together during our framing period, followed by essential systems installation with our trusted trade partners. We'll schedule an on-site meeting with you during this phase so you can see your home's progress firsthand and ask any questions. From roofing to rough-ins, every step brings you closer to home.

            Character & Craftsmanship

            This is where your home's personality shines through. Custom cabinetry and countertops, interior trim and doors, and carefully selected finishes transform your house into a home. As a highly-regarded build-on-your-lot builder in Eastern NC, we take pride in the details that make your space uniquely yours, from tile work to custom millwork.

              The Final Touches

              Certificate of Occupancy Day—the moment you've been waiting for! Final inspections, appliances, site improvements like driveways and patios, and a thorough construction cleanup prepare your home for move-in. We handle every detail so you can focus on the excitement of your new beginning.
