We meet with homeowners all the time at the ML Group, and one thing we hear the most is they really want something different. They no longer want a house that looks the same as the one next door, and in some cases, they don’t feel like it speaks to their style anymore.

Maybe you’re thinking the same thing: You bought your house 12 or 13 years ago, and you love it. But over the last eight years, you’ve noticed its lack of functionality and curb appeal – your master closet is narrow, there’s not enough room to entertain, and there’s too much space being taken up in the hallway that could have been used to give yourself a bigger laundry room or patio.

Being the residential architects and designers we are, solving these pain points with a custom home is right up our ally. Here are 4 reasons why you need to partner with a residential designer:

  1. You get what you want and need – Because you have your own architect, the entire experience is customizable. You have control, everything is crafted around your budget, and you’re not locked into one particular style. Go crazy and create your own style from scratch!
  2. Having a designer melts the stress away – A residential designer’s priority is YOU. At the ML Group, we get to know our clients, and we take the time to listen to their dreams and ideas. That takes stress off your plate in a process that might have felt a little overwhelming at first.
  3. Your architect knows their stuff – If you’re taking the plunge into the custom building world, you need someone in your corner who is knowledgeable. For example, I’ve owned a home building company in the past. I know what’s realistic, how far to push the envelope, and how and where to keep costs low.
  4. Residential designers are problem-solvers – Many clients have an idea of what they want, but they don’t know how to materialize that or put it into words other than the 40 or 50 pictures they found on Pinterest. The ML Group can put that puzzle together for you.

Having an experienced residential designer in your corner is the most valuable asset in your quest to design the perfect home – one that we promise will be unique to your style and way of living, call us today.
