Expert Lot and Site Review Before You Build
Before any plans are drawn, we visit your property to review orientation, access, views, drainage, topography, utilities, surrounding roads, and other site conditions. With combined builder and real estate expertise, we can identify issues and opportunities that many builders miss, helping you avoid costly surprises and make the most of the land you already own. This review is provided at no cost as part of our early planning process.
Why Build on Your Lot With Thackery Living?
1. Real Estate & Builder Expertise
By combining the perspective of a licensed real estate broker with custom home building expertise, we help clients evaluate land, identify hidden costs, and maximize long-term value—before construction begins.
2. High-Performance Building on Any Lot
Whether your land is flat or sloped, in the city or the country, we bring the same high-performance mindset to every project. Our homes are carefully planned, well engineered, and optimized for durability, comfort, and energy efficiency.
3. True Custom Design—Not a Pre-Baked Portfolio
We don’t hand you a set of “pre-approved” plans and tell you to make it work. We design every home to fit your lifestyle, family, and property—not the other way around. That means better flow, more functional spaces, and a home that truly feels like yours.
4. Third-Party Engineering & Oversight
Every one of our homes is structurally engineered by a licensed structural engineering firm, regardless of location or inspection requirements. We also bring in independent third-party inspectors to review key milestones, ensuring your build is verified.
5. Fewer Projects, Better Focus
To deliver the highest quality product for our clients, we take on fewer projects each year than most builders, so every build receives the oversight and precision it requires. With Thackery Living, you are not just another project—you are a client relationship we prioritize.
What to Expect When Building on Your Lot
- Site Walk & Evaluation
We meet on site to assess buildability, slope, trees, utilities, drainage, access, and local zoning. If you're still shopping for land, we can help you evaluate options before you buy.
- Design Fit & Feasibility
We tailor the home design to the specific conditions of your lot—sun orientation, grade, wind exposure, easements, privacy, and more. - Permitting & Pre-Construction
We coordinate directly with engineers, municipalities, and utility companies to streamline permits and ensure your build is set up for success.
- Full-Scope Construction Management
From lot prep through final closeout, our team maintains constant oversight and communicates directly with you throughout the process.
This Is Ideal For
- Landowners with acreage, infill lots, or teardown properties
- Families who want more control over location, layout, and quality
- Homebuyers who want a truly custom home, not a slightly modified template
- Clients who value structural integrity and long-term peace of mind
We Will Meet You Where You Are—Literally
Already own your land? Great. Still looking? We can help. Wherever you are in the process, we will help you navigate what comes next and make it feel less overwhelming.
