The Home Buying Process

Here’s a clear, step-by-step breakdown of the home buying process so you can see the big picture from start to finish.

Explore The Area

The first step in the home buying process is to explore communities in southeastern North Carolina and northeastern South Carolina and find your perfect match! Whether it’s a light urban community or a serene rural enclave, there’s a site waiting for you. Schedule a consultation with us today.

Found the perfect spot? Secure it with a simple deposit. Enjoy the benefits of a brand-new construction home, from energy-efficient appliances to smart home technology, without the stress of bidding wars or hidden issues.

Secure a Homesite

Connect with a Loan Officer

Secure a loan with a local lender. Gather your financial documents and discuss options like grant programs or down payment assistance with a Home Loan Consultant. Consider consulting with a Tax Advisor to maximize potential tax advantages.

Buying a home involves signing plenty of paperwork. Talk to your Home Loan Consultant about locking in your rate and securing your monthly payment.

Prepare Paperwork

Contact Milam Customs

Get creative with your home’s interior and exterior by contacting Milam Customs. With inspiration and help from a professional designer, you can select flooring, countertops, lighting, window coverings, fixtures, and more. 

Meet Matt for an orientation. This is a great opportunity to see your home under construction and understand what’s behind the walls before drywall is installed.

Tour Construction

Finalize Finances

Before closing escrow, update your loan with recent paystubs, bank statements, and proof of homeowners insurance. 

Matt will give you a tour of your newly finished home, bringing your vision to life. He will also provide tips on maintenance and details about your new home warranty.

Close the Deal

As your home buying journey concludes, we will help to ensure a smooth transition. Finalize loan terms, sign documents, and wire funds to the escrow company. With your deed recorded and escrow closed, you’re officially a homeowner!

Once your loan is funded, the deed recorded, and escrow closed, it’s time to pick up your keys and celebrate! Milam Customs will be there to answer questions, assist with warranty requests, and schedule follow-up maintenance. 

Enjoy your Forever Home
