What’s the Process of Building a Custom Home?

Building a custom home is one of the most exciting and rewarding journeys you can take as a homeowner, but it can also feel overwhelming without the right team to guide you through the process. From choosing the perfect finishes to the final walkthrough, there are many moving parts to building a custom home.

At Ramos Companies, we simplify that journey with our proprietary 12-step construction process, known as “The Ramos Way”, ensuring a seamless execution.

1. Discovery & Planning

It all starts with understanding your vision. During this initial phase, we sit down with you to explore your goals, lifestyle needs, inspiration and budget. After these pre-construction meetings, we provide a Letter of Engagement and collect an initial deposit to officially begin the design process.

2. Design & Architecture

Once your goals are defined, we move into the design phase. This includes everything from floor plans and exterior elevations to interior finishes and custom features. We proudly collaborate with talented architects and interior designers that are part of our trusted network, to bring your vision to life in a cohesive and inspired way.

Our integrated team works closely with you to ensure that style, structure, and budget all come together seamlessly.

3. Permitting & Approvals

Before breaking ground, our team handles all necessary permitting, zoning, and code compliance on your behalf. Navigating municipal requirements can be complex—but we’ve got it covered. With decades of experience in Florida markets, we manage the entire permitting process to avoid delays and ensure compliance.

4. Construction

Now, your home begins to take shape. From foundation to finishes, our project managers oversee every detail. We communicate proactively with you and the entire team to keep things moving smoothly. Our detailed process includes scheduled walkthroughs, progress reports, and consistent quality checks.

5. Completion & Move-In

As construction wraps up, we walk you through your completed home, make any final adjustments, and ensure every detail meets our standards and yours. We also provide full documentation, warranties, and long-term support.

At Ramos Companies, we are dedicated to making sure that your every need is addressed during the construction process. We provide our customers with a concierge level of service before, during, and after the construction process to ensure that every home we create is deeply personal, meticulously crafted, and built to last.
