Our Process

As a top custom home builder in Wayzata, we want to ensure our process is centered around you and all the must-haves for your new home. Our process has been tested and perfected over a decade: Every step of the way, we involve you and your family to keep everyone on the same page to achieve the home of your dreams. And every time, our process has resulted in a unique and beautiful home that fits the goals and needs of our clients. Here’s a closer look at what the process entails:

1 — Consultation
If you have already purchased a lot in Wayzata, we can get started discussing your design preferences and high-level goals for your new home. And if you need help finding that perfect lot, that’s okay! We’re here to assist in the search.

2 — Meet with the Architect
This is the time to bring all the wants and needs you’ve come up with so our architect can begin to sketch out concepts. We always take into account your family and lifestyle to inform choices about your home’s functionality and look. Our architect will deliver a final sketch within 2-3 weeks of this initial meeting.

3 — Your Blueprint
The blueprinting stage is where we’ll start to dive into the finer details of your custom home. This stage will help us understand material and building costs, too, so you can begin to set up financing. Upon approval, we can write up a purchase agreement and collect a portion of the deposit.

4 — Design and Build Phase
Things start to feel real during this step! Now that blueprinting details are ironed out, you can start making decisions about home aesthetics that will truly make your house feel like a home.

5 — Delivery
Typically, we are clear to deliver your home nine months after permits are submitted. We will walk through your new home together, making sure every little detail exceeds your expectations. And the support from the Norton Homes team doesn’t stop there — we’re here to help make adjustments and address your concerns as your home continues to settle into place after construction is complete.

“We thoroughly enjoyed working with Chris and Cristy from Norton Homes. The craftsmanship on our new home was flawless and was completed with precision! All of his subcontractors were great to work with too! Thank you Norton Homes!”

Gary, Courtney & Quinn B.

“We had an extremely positive experience building our new home with Norton Homes. Chris was just fabulous to work with. We have appreciated his knowledge, honesty, and friendly, professional service. His responsiveness to our questions, even after we moved in, continues to reinforce Chris’ focus to customer service. He personally checked in with us a few weeks after closing to make sure everything was going well. The team of people Chris has chosen to represent him are also top notch. His realtor Cristy was very helpful and quick to respond to our needs. The crew members were all very professional and experts in their field. Working with them to build our home really made it an enjoyable effort! We would highly recommend building a home with Chris Norton, Norton Homes.”
