OUR OWNER - BUILD
PROGRAM


Team Up With Youmans' Construction Services

SAVE 15% - If you are considering building a new home, we would like to introduce you to a Fully Engineered Building System that will save you approximately 15% on the cost of new construction.

OWNER INVOLVED - YCS has successfully worked with Owner Involved Builders as a designer, material supplier, construction coordinator and consultant helping new homeowners build 800 to 4,000 sq. ft. homes at great savings.

CUSTOM PLANS ARE WELCOME! We have a 55 standard plan library that can be modified to meet your lifestyle. Or we can use your plans or clippings from a newspaper or magazine. If you like, we can design your home from scratch, at no extra charge.

HAVE IT YOUR WAY - We will help you design your home the way you want it - not how we think you should have it. Although we offer suggestions and opinions, ultimately it is your home and you will have it the way you want it.

PANELIZED CONSTRUCTION - This is essentially an "off-site" stick built home. As an owner builder, your construction risks are greatly reduced. Your home is engineered and built by the staff at Forest Homes. Your dependence on skilled field labor is minimized. Construction time can be compressed to as little as 90 days for turn-key construction.

COMPLETE PACKAGE - YCS supplies approximately 90% of the component parts needed to build your new home. Our building packages include: framing, siding, roofing, doors and windows, interior trim, cabinets, floor coverings, plumbing & electric, etc. (see our specifications page)

UNDER YOUR CONTROL - You control "what" and "how" you want things done! If you just want to purchase the building package and do the entire project yourself, you can, thereby saving more than 15% .

CONSTRUCTION COORDINATORS - If you would like us to assist you as "Construction Coordinators" we will. Here is how we do that:

1. We "competitively bid" the rest of the work: basement, electrical, plumbing, etc. We show you those bids, discuss the pricing of each one, and we assist you in choosing who you want to do the various jobs. In fact, you can even do the painting, interior trim, or other work you feel qualified to do for even more savings. The more you do, the more you save!

2. As work begins, we coordinate the different subcontractors to keep your home on schedule. We visit your job site as work progresses to inspect the sub-contractors work to assure you receive the quality you want and deserve.

3. When the work is done, we re-inspect the various sub-contractors work and compare their bill to their bid to make sure there are no unauthorized cost overruns. After inspection, we submit their bill to you for direct payment to each sub-contractor.

4. In addition to all of this, we will pass on all wholesale and discount savings that we receive from numerous suppliers throughout the area, e.g. plumbing fixtures are marked up 35 - 40%, electrical 40 - 50% and so on.
You will also receive our discounts on appliances, flooring and etc.

Here at YCS we make it possible for you to have the size, design and amenities you have always wanted without sacrificing quality or structural integrity.
