  • How long does it take to build a home?
    About 4 to 5 months. Many factors including the weather, contractor’s schedules, and material availability affect the length of time it will take to build your home. See our 10 Steps to Building Your Home.

  • Do you have homes available for immediate move in?
    Generally, we have a few homes for sale that are either under construction or already completed. See our Featured Homes.

  • Can I make changes to one of your floor plans, like moving a wall or adding square footage?
    Maybe. We will consider requests on a case-by-case basis. Any change we make must be structurally sound, economically feasible, and aesthetically acceptable.

  • Will I have to drive all over town to your suppliers to pick out my paint, carpet, and other selections?
    No, we think that is an inconvenience for homebuyers. We have a wide array of selections available for viewing at our Model Home.

  • Some builders offer very limited choices when it comes to paint, carpet, and other selections. How much of a choice will I have at Lindale Homes?
    Our Model Home selection room is well stocked and constantly updated with the most popular materials, colors, and styles available. Lindale Homes offers more choices than most of our competitors who build homes in the same price range. We have literally dozens of bricks, carpets, countertops, and floor tiles to choose from.

  • Can I change something about my home once you have started building?
    Our building process is designed to help homebuyers determine their needs and explore the possibilities available to them before we begin construction. This system minimizes the need for “Change Orders” or making changes once construction has begun. However, if it is not cost prohibitive, we will consider requests to make changes once the home is underway. Consult our Lindale Homes Sales Associate for our current “Change Order” policy.

  • What is Lindale Homes’ new home warranty?
    All homebuilders in Texas are now required by the Texas Residential Construction Commission to provide a 2-year mechanical warranty and a 10-year limited, structural warranty. The mechanical warranty covers all electrical, plumbing, HVA/C, and other mechanical systems in the home for the first two years. In addition, Lindale Homes provides a 1-year warranty on all workmanship and materials throughout the home. Our warranty is backed by Bonded Builders Warranty Group, a third party warranty administrator.

  • What assurances do I have that I am getting a well built home?
    There are many checkpoints that our homes have to pass to ensure top-notch quality. Our reputation is your greatest assurance that you will get a well built home, but here are a few more.
    • Will I be able to view my home while it is under construction?
      You may schedule walk-throughs with us while your home is under construction to check on the progress and have questions answered. More importantly, we will have a final walk-through and orientation when your home is finished. It is our policy that all cosmetic defects and known warranty items be repaired to your satisfaction before we close and hand you your new keys. It is Lindale Homes’ policy that homebuyers and the general public are to stay clear of construction sites, as there are many hazards that could cause serious bodily injury or even death.

    • Can I buy a lot from Lindale Homes and build my home later?
      The answer to this is “no.” If you need to sell your home or fulfill a lease agreement before you build, consult our Lindale Homes Sales Associate about the possibility of a contingency contract to build.

    • Can I buy two or more adjacent lots and build my home in the middle of them?
      The answer to this is no. Our subdivision restrictions prevent it.

    • Will Lindale Homes build on land that I own?
      Yes; consult our Lindale Homes Sales Associate for additional information.

    • Does Lindale Homes offer financing?
      We do not finance ourselves, but we have many friends who do. Check out our Mortgage Lender partners.

    • Will I need interim financing (or a “construction loan”) to build my new home with Lindale Homes?
      No. You will only need a permanent mortgage loan when the home is finished and a prequalification letter from your lender before we get started.

    • What does it take to get started building a new home?
      That is explained in the first couple of steps of our 10 Steps to Building Your Home.
