Two homes can start at a similar price and end very differently. Founder’s Collection homes include more as standard, while many builders rely on upgrades to get there. When built to the same level of quality and finish, that difference often adds up to tens of thousands of dollars.

Frequently Asked Questions
Commonly asked questions about custom home building in Spokane, CDA, Sandpoint, Lewiston & beyond in the Inland NW!
Do I need to have a floor plan before meeting with Lexar Homes?
No. Many of our clients start with ideas, inspiration, or a general vision rather than a finished plan. Our team can help guide the design process from the very first conversation.
Can I start with one of your existing floor plans and customize it?
Yes. We offer semi-custom options that allow you to personalize one of our proven plans to better fit your land, lifestyle, and preferences.
How much does it cost to build a custom home with Lexar Homes?
Custom homes with Lexar Homes typically start around $250 per square foot, depending on design, location, and selections. Thanks to our local trade relationships, company-wide purchasing power, and streamlined in-house design process, we’re able to offer custom building at a lower cost—while many other custom builders start at $300+ per square foot.
What’s the difference between full custom and semi-custom?
Full custom homes are designed entirely from scratch, while semi-custom homes begin with an existing plan that is modified to suit your needs. Both options follow the same collaborative design and build process.
Do you design homes in-house?
Yes. Our drafting and design work is handled in-house, allowing for a more collaborative process, better communication, and smoother transitions from design to construction.
Can Lexar Homes design a home specifically for my land?
Absolutely. We consider site conditions, views, access, and orientation to ensure the home is designed to work with your land—not against it.
How long does the custom design process take?
Timelines vary based on the complexity of the design and level of customization, but our team will guide you through each step and keep you informed throughout the process.
Is building a custom home more expensive than using a standard plan?
Usually, but not always. Custom building allows you to prioritize what matters most to you, and our team works closely with you to align design decisions with your budget.
Can I make changes after the design process begins?
Yes. The design phase is collaborative and allows for refinement along the way. We work with you to evaluate changes and ensure they align with timelines and costs. Change order costs may apply depending on how far along the process is.
What’s the first step to getting started?
The first step is a conversation. Meet with our team to discuss your land, goals, and vision, and we’ll help you determine the best path forward.
