Who benefits from the Let’s Build program?
The Let’s Build program is designed for clients who are looking to purchase a lot with the intention to build on the property within the next five years.
How to tell if the property is ready to build?
The property can be in a platted subdivision with utilities or vacant land, if utility access is documented by local authorities or confirmed by a passing perc test.
