Build your new custom home

Make your dream home your real home

At NR Properties, your vision is the cornerstone of our custom design-build process. We construct homes with your family’s needs, personality, and lifestyle as the foundation, ensuring that each space is tailored for you. Our unmatched attention to detail ensures your home is crafted with the utmost care. Once the design is finalized, we maintain clear and continuous communication throughout the building process, keeping you informed every step of the way.

Choosing the Right Location

The journey to your new home starts with selecting the perfect site. NR Properties offers a variety of lots throughout the Twin Cities, each chosen for its blend of comfort, convenience, and beauty. However, if you have a different location in mind, we are more than willing to build on your existing lot or assist you in finding the ideal spot that meets all your expectations.

Flexible Home Solutions for Every Budget

NR Properties provides diverse building options to cater to your specific needs and financial plans. Our Legacy building process offers the highest level of customization, placing you in charge of every detail. Alternatively, our semi-custom Identity process allows you to personalize one of our advanced, pre-designed floor plans. Additionally, for those eager to move in without delay, we offer a variety of quick move-in homes ready in multiple communities.

Building Process

Fully Custom

Design

At NR Properties, finding the right location is the first step in creating your dream home. We have carefully selected available lots across the Twin Cities with a focus on healthy living and convenience. If these do not meet your needs, or if you already own a lot, we are happy to build on your preferred site. Our initial design meeting is dedicated to exploring your ideas, dreams, and needs. After this collaborative session, we'll hand-draw the initial plans for your home. Following pre-approval from a preferred lender and signing the Design-Build Agreement, we move on to the second design meeting where we finalize your home's design and create digital plans, ensuring every detail aligns with your vision.

Pricing

At NR Properties, we streamline the process for pricing and agreements. Before our Pricing Proposal Meeting, we encourage you to review the proposal. Any updates to the pricing proposal will be communicated to you via email or phone for your convenience. For the Purchase Agreement, you'll have the opportunity to preview and sign it electronically, ensuring a seamless and efficient process from start to finish.

Review

At NR Properties, we begin with a Plan Review Meeting to discuss our design and build plans, ensuring everything aligns with your preferences. Following this, we'll have a Low Voltage and Electrical Meeting to plan the wiring and outlet locations meticulously. During the Design Center Selection Meeting, we'll go over all the details and finishing touches to personalize your home. The process culminates with the closing on your construction loan, at which time the remainder of the down payment is due.

Construction & Move-In

The home-building journey at NR Properties is typically completed within 300 days. We start by breaking ground on your dig date, followed by a comprehensive electrical walk-through with our job supervisor to ensure all systems are optimally planned. Once these preliminary steps are in place, the building process begins in earnest. Before you know it, you’ll be ready to move into your new home!

Semi Custom

Selection & Pricing

The selection and pricing process at NR Properties is typically completed within 30 days. It begins with a Lot Reservation, where you select the ideal location for your new home. You'll receive a detailed layout of your lot, a pricing proposal, and additional information to aid your decision. Following this, we recommend obtaining pre-approval from a preferred lender to ensure a smooth transition to the next steps. Before the Pricing Proposal Meeting, we encourage you to review the proposal. Any updates will be communicated via email or phone. Finally, the Purchase Agreement process is streamlined through electronic previews and signatures, making it convenient and efficient.

Review

The review process at NR Properties is typically completed within 90 days. It begins with a Plan Review Meeting, where we discuss our design and build plans to ensure everything meets your expectations. This is followed by the Low Voltage and Electrical Meeting to plan wiring and outlet locations. During the Design Center Selection Meeting, we finalize details and select finishing touches for your home. The process concludes with the closing on your construction loan, at which point the remainder of the down payment is due.
