Build on Your Lot with Hall Quality Homes

July 4, 2025

At Hall Quality Homes, we build outstanding homes in thoughtfully designed communities. However, if you have your own land or are considering purchasing a lot not in an existing community, we are happy to work with you to build your dream home. As a Wasilla home builder, we understand the work and requirements that go into building a home on a variety of lot types, so let our experience help make the process easier.

When you build on your own land, you get to design a home tailored exactly to your lifestyle, tastes, and needs. You can select your ideal floor plan, customize materials, and create outdoor spaces that blend perfectly with your surroundings. However, first you need to navigate permits, zoning laws, utility hookups, and sometimes uneven terrain or environmental issues. When building on your lot, we’ll look into any possible restrictions or specifications that apply specifically to your lot.

Unlike building in a community where infrastructure is already in place, building on your own lot may require custom solutions for drainage, foundation work, or utility access. This is why we send one of our builders out to take a close look at your lot before we sit down to discuss the home you want to build.

For example, we check for the proximity of gas and electrical utilities, determining the ease of connecting them to your site. We’ll also look into local well logs to determine how deep your well may be. If necessary, we do test holes that let us know about high water tables and soil and gravel depths. We also walk the whole lot, taking note of hills, slopes, and dips, because all of these elements can impact where building can be done securely or where work needs to be done to prepare the site. Knowing where you can build easily or where work will need to be done lets you make a more informed choice, both for preferences and for budget. Once our builder has a clear sense of the property, we can sit down and start discussing floor plans, the location of your home on the lot, and get to work helping you build your dream home. Working with a Wasilla home builder like Hall Quality Homes gives you the confidence and peace of mind knowing that your home will be built on properly prepared land.
