Custom homes, different from spec homes or tract homes, refer to residential home design that is based specifically on the requirements of the homebuyer or future resident. While some of the home specifications are industry standards, and therefore compulsory, many of the design elements and home features can be tailor made, modified, or altered from previously used floor plans. Hence, custom home designs rely on a close partnership between the homeowner, the architect, the home construction company, and even subcontractors. For most custom home projects, the homeowners must independently acquire the tract of land on which the home will be built, and they have the full range of options for finishes, fixtures, and other amenities, which means the price and value of custom-designed homes is often quite high.
