After we identify a floor plan and lot that meets the clients’ wants and needs, we provide the total costs for the project. At this point, the client will sign a purchase agreement with Navigate Homes and put 10% of the total purchase price down as a deposit. Navigate maintains ownership of the property and home until the house is 100% complete. Closing occurs when the home is completely finished. At this point, the client’s deposit will be credited to the overall purchase amount and they will bring additional funds and/or proof of loan so they can get their keys to the home.

If a buyer decides to change something about the home after the purchase agreement has been signed, the Navigate Homes team will identify those changes in writing and how much the difference will cost. This will be signed by both parties in writing so everything is clear and there are no surprises.

As part of the Navigate Homes process, we offer all our new homeowners a one-year warranty that covers materials and workmanship. For more details, visit the warranty page on the Navigate Homes website.

After you’ve gotten settled into your home, you should plan on purchasing blinds and maintaining proper treatment of your lawn. We recommend that you hire a lawn care company to apply fertilizer and weed control. You’ll need to water, sod, and mow your lawn frequently in the first year to ensure that the roots grow strong and deep.
