Everyone would love a new home, but the challenge of finding land, designing, building, and budgeting for a new home can be a daunting process.  We here at Capecodbuilder.com  always suggest starting with the most important factor, the budget.  With a realistic budget in mind, it is possible to craft a design that will still meet an owner's expectations, given the known financial constraints.  We will often suggest a meeting with a lender, very early on in the process, to ensure an owner can have access to the funds necessary to build their home. If you are in the early stages of your Cape Cod Home project, and are thinking about Building a New home, here is a calculator from the National Association of Home Builders that allows a homeowner to determine how much mortgage they can afford and help them establish a budget.  Here is the spreadsheet: How Much House can I Afford?
