See how our Build on Your Lot process makes your dream home become a reality in just a few easy steps.

Start by connecting with our New Home Specialist and touring our award-winning model home in person, or virtually, in the Houston area to become familiar with Empire’s home designs, features and finishes. Gather inspiration from online resources and magazines to get a feel for what design style you prefer. From there, you’ll have all the inspiration and ideas you need to plan the home that you want on your lot with our team.

Our team will meet you on site for a comprehensive evaluation to determine costs and the construction process for your new home, and begin the conversations to get your homebuilding project underway. Whichever your wants and needs, our team is highly flexible and specializes in tailoring homes to your dreams.

Choose from Empire’s collection of well-designed, functional floor plans to find the home design that perfectly fits your family and lifestyle and make it your own.

After visiting your homesite and selecting your floor plan it’s time to sign your construction agreement and let Empire get to work building your home.

At our Houston Design Center, you’ll work directly with your design consultant to customize all the features and finishes for your home. Our experienced design professionals are committed to helping you select the adornments that you prefer, with a variety of beautiful options to choose from.

Complete the purchasing process by securing a financing program that works for you and close on your construction loan.

It’s time to break ground on your home. You’ll be notified of major milestones along the way and given a projected construction timeline to stay in the loop on progress, meetings, walk-throughs, pre-closing and completion.
