1. Balance between customization and cost

At Murray Custom Homes, our semi-custom homes let you personalize key features — including flooring, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, paint colors, and select minor structural changes — without the higher cost of a fully custom home. This allows you to incorporate the design elements you love while keeping your build on a predictable budget. You’ll enjoy a streamlined selection process that saves time while still showcasing your style. With clear pricing and expert guidance at every step, you can move forward confidently and focus on the joy of creating your new home.

 

2. Simplified process

Building a fully custom home can involve a long list of design decisions and approvals. With Murray’s semi-custom approach, we provide pre-designed floor plans and a curated set of options. This simplifies the process, making it easy to achieve a home that reflects your style without feeling overwhelmed by choices. Our team guides you through each selection with clear timelines and pricing so you can make confident decisions. Streamlined approvals and defined milestones keep your project moving smoothly without sacrificing the personal touches you care about.

 

3. Faster timeline

Because our semi-custom floor plans are tried and tested, your home moves from design to construction more efficiently than a fully custom build. This means you can enjoy your home sooner while still tailoring it to your needs. Standardized details and trusted trade partners keep lead times predictable and reduce change‑order surprises. With clear milestones from selections to walkthroughs, you can plan your move‑in with confidence.

 

4. Flexibility within structure

Murray’s semi-custom homes offer the opportunity to customize layouts, finishes, and features within a structured framework. You get the individuality you want without the complexity of designing every detail from scratch. Our guided options keep decisions focused and manageable while maintaining craftsmanship standards. The result is a personalized home that looks and lives like you envisioned—delivered with fewer delays and greater budget confidence.

 

5. Better budget control

By finalizing your selections at the beginning of the build, our team at Murray Custom Homes can plan and schedule your project around your choices. This upfront clarity increases the likelihood of staying on budget and minimizes unexpected costs during the construction process. It allows us to lock in pricing and lead times with vendors and trade partners early, helping us avoid shortages and delays. You’ll have a clear roadmap of milestones and approvals, so progress stays smooth from groundbreaking to closing.

 

6. Expert guidance every step of the way

Our experience with semi-custom floor plans and finishes means we can guide you in making informed choices that work best for your home. With Murray Custom Homes, you can feel confident that your home will be functional, beautiful, and built efficiently. From the initial design conversation to the final walkthrough, our team maintains clear and proactive communication, ensuring you always know the next step. We’ll highlight trade-offs, recommend durable, value-smart materials, and align selections with your budget and timeline.
