Uniquely Tailored New Construction in Los Angeles

New houses take anywhere from 10 to 18+ months for the construction phase only, not including planning and permitting phase. The design, planning and permitting phase can take anywhere from 6 to 12+ months. This timeline is primarily influenced by LA’s unique regulatory environment and time-consuming permit process. It can actually take 3 to 8+ months just for permits! However, working with experienced Los Angeles new build specialists like Create Construction can help expedite this phase due to our familiarity with local requirements.

Other factors that influence your new house’s timeline include design, site prep, and interior and exterior finishing, as they require extreme attention to detail.

Your permits depend on the scope and details of your build. Customary permits usually will include:

• Zoning/Land Use Approval
• Building Permit 
• Electrical Permit
• Plumbing Permit
• Mechanical Permit

While buying a home provides a faster move-in, the benefits of building a house in LA strongly outweigh its convenience. New builds offer you complete customization. This means you can choose your floor plan, finishes, fixtures, and more!

New builds also have better energy efficiency and new systems, meaning there will be little to no need for early maintenance. Another big benefit? There aren’t any bidding wars with new constructions!

You should look for LA contractors that manage the entire process for you, from permits to construction. This ensures your home is completed seamlessly and to code. We also recommend prioritizing communicative contractors with positive client testimonials and who provide superb quality work. You should look for a contractor who has systems in place (as well as behind the scenes) to build and manage your home’s construction efficiently. Also, for custom new builds, we recommend using a general contractor who has many sub contractors for each trade and not a single crew that mixes trades. This way you ensure quality and professionalism for each trade, plus you are not putting all of your eggs in one basket on a single crew.
