How Long It Takes to Deliver a New Construction Home

Typical Timeline From Permit to Move-In

Once permits are released, a typical Broward County new build runs about 8 to 12 months, depending on size and finish level. Preconstruction items like surveys, engineering, and permit reviews often add 60 to 120 days before vertical work begins.

Financing readiness can also influence start dates, especially when locking materials and trades. If you are preparing lending, our overview on best new home rates can help frame next steps.

What Affects Your Delivery Date

Local review times, utility coordination, and site conditions like dewatering or pile driving can extend schedules. Material lead times for specialty windows, doors, and appliances also play a role.

We mitigate risks with early buyouts, realistic sequencing, and daily site management. Our commercial construction capability adds depth to procurement and logistics when projects demand it.

Tracking Progress Through the Buildertrend Client Portal

Your family sees schedules, daily photos, selections, and approvals in the Buildertrend portal so there are no surprises. Messaging, change orders, and budgets are organized in one place, available from your phone or desktop.

New Construction Pricing and What Influences the Final Cost

Lot, Site Work, and Elevation Costs in South Florida

Coastal lots in Broward can require higher finished-floor elevations, seawall coordination, drainage systems, and sometimes soil improvement. Waterfront parcels along the Intracoastal or canal systems may add dock, lift, and utility considerations.

Zoning, setbacks, and driveway approach requirements also affect budgets. For regional context beyond Broward, review our notes on Palm Beach new construction to see how site conditions drive scope.

Specification Level and Finish Selections

Your selections shape cost and feel. Think European oak or large-format porcelain underfoot, marble or quartzite counters, custom millwork, glass railings, and outdoor kitchens that make weekends simple.

Appliance packages like Sub-Zero, Wolf, or Thermador, along with plumbing fixtures and lighting, refine the experience room by room. Work with our custom home builder team to dial in the right specification level for your home.

How Buyers Typically Finance a New Home Purchase

Move-in ready purchases often use jumbo or portfolio mortgages, while to-be-built options may use construction-to-permanent loans. We coordinate with your lender’s draw schedules and keep documentation clean for smooth closings.

New Construction vs. Custom Build vs. Remodeling: Choosing the Right Path

New Construction Homes Compared With Resale Homes

New Construction Homes reduce unknowns. You start with fresh structure, impact assemblies, efficient systems, and layouts designed for today, which often lowers maintenance and insurance considerations.

If you want move-in certainty in North Broward, consider Parkland new construction homes that balance schools, parks, and quiet streets. You gain the comfort of warranty coverage from the first night.

When a Custom Home Build Is the Better Fit

Choose a custom build when your lot, view, or lifestyle asks for something truly tailored. That might be a glass stair, an elevator for multigenerational living, a gym, or a club room that opens completely to the pool.

Waterfront addresses near Las Olas often benefit from bespoke siting and dock planning to maximize light and maneuvering. See examples on Las Olas new construction to picture possibilities.

When Remodeling Your Existing Home Makes More Sense

If your location is perfect and structure is sound, a whole-home remodel can deliver the lifestyle you want without moving. Kitchens that open to the family room, spa-worthy primary suites, and new impact envelopes can transform your daily rhythm.

Explore our luxury home remodeling services when timelines or sentimental ties make staying put the right call.

Choosing Thomas Homes to build our home was the best decision we could have made. The team delivered a truly turnkey experience, guiding us through every step with professionalism and great creativity. The craftsmanship is beautiful —every finish, fixture, and design choice met our high standards. Our home doesn’t just look beautiful—it feels comfortable, welcoming, and perfectly suited to our lifestyle. They were so easy to work with, extremely responsive to my calls and offered sound suggestions and solutions to our ideas. Every step was on a timeline to set us up for success. Thomas Homes coordinated all aspects including interior design, lighting, sound, pool, even landscaping into an easy turnkey process. They turned our vision into reality. Actually, the finished product is better than we imagined. We are on an unusually shaped lot and they maximized the house and outdoor space. Our friends and family have been wowed by our house and my husband and I are thrilled with the end result, a beautiful, well-built and timeless home.

We engaged Thomas Homes to provide a bid for the construction of a new single family residence. While we ultimately ended up not selecting Thomas Homes for the project, it truly wasn't due to a lack of confidence that Robby, Tom, Vince, and team would build us a beautiful and well constructed home. Communication was great and the references provided spoke well of their prior of the experiences with Thomas Homes. Would certainly consider them again for any future work or recommendations to family/friends.

Beyond that, their communication is outstanding. Using Buildertrend, we always knew exactly where things stood in terms of budget, construction, and timeline. No surprises, just a smooth and professional process. What impressed me most was the pride Thomas Homes takes in their work. You can tell they genuinely care about the families they build for, and that level of commitment is rare in this industry.
