Benefits of Build On Your Lot Homes

If you’ve fallen in love with a location and want the perfect home to complement it, your Vista team is ready to make your dream a reality. We carefully assess your site conditions, needs, and budget to personalize a home that reflects the unique characteristics of your lot and your lifestyle.

Why not turn a special spot into the location of your dream home? Here are a few reasons to build on your land.

Sound Investment. The real estate market is historically a good investment. The home you build will be an investment that you and your family can own for generations to come. It’s a commitment that will build value in the long run. Plus, you’ll have the security of having a Vista home that will endure in an area that is only growing in popularity.
Location, location, location. One of the benefits of building on your lot is finding the perfect location. In Charlotte, there are so many locales to choose from. (One of the reasons it’s one of the hottest markets in the country!) If you find land with a home you don’t love, we can help you with a “tear-down”. That means you can not only choose a neighborhood but the street, too.
Modern Design = Fewer Maintenance Costs. Newly constructed homes have fewer maintenance costs. You can rest assured that your Vista home will be designed to fit the land you’ve chosen and will be up to code with the latest building requirements. With modern systems built in, you avoid costly maintenance and upkeep.
Flexibility & Affordability. When building on your land, you can trust that the details of your home are sorted before construction begins. Everything is personalized for you and your land. This is more cost-effective and convenient than renovating an existing home. Building a home on your lot also brings greater flexibility in the home’s design. You can choose one of our floor plans and then choose the tile, flooring, design elements, and more.

They build beautiful, high quality homes at a reasonable price for all that they offer. Despite being in thousands of homes in and around the region, I’m still in awe every time I pull up to a Vista property. Just gorgeous!”

Tim A.
“We love our Vista home! The Vista team was easy to work with and very responsive. We found our own lot and worked with Vista to build on it. It was perfect, as we were able to save some costs compared to a custom build and not have to stress about every little detail. We get complimented often on the quality of our finishes, fixtures, and appliances, which are all standard in Vista homes!”

Nicole B.
“During the homebuying process, we came across what is now our beautiful Vista home. We spent countless days and nights researching and making sure we were making the best decision possible. The process was made easier by all of the help provided by Vista Homes and their fantastic team. They’ve held up their end of the bargain and still, even after a year plus, have been helpful in resolving any issues I have had. We would definitely recommend working with Vista Homes!”

David R.
"Vista (specifically Chandler and Mariessa) were amazing to work with. They kept me informed throughout the process and answered my million questions. I would highly recommend them to anyone! I felt very informed and kept up to date on everything happening throughout the process. They were also super flexible in working around my schedule."

Kelsey P.
"I used Vista Homes to purchase my very first home and from beginning to end the process was seamless. I had biweekly calls with Chandler (the best there ever was) where she gave me updates and was super transparent about everything. Every single update was communicated effectively via email or on our calls! I was SO impressed. Never did I feel left out or unsure about what was happening during the building process. Then there is Mariessa... whenever I had a random odd question she always had an answer. Needless to say I had a fantastic experience with my first home and I would highly recommend Vista!"

Brantley B.
“Quality was top notch and our home was completed ahead of schedule. Communication and transparency were amazing. Mariessa and Chandler also went above and beyond to answer all of our questions and make sure any concerns were addressed. We are so grateful to have worked with Mariessa, Chandler, and the rest of the Vista team.”

John P. and Karina V.
“We have been so pleased with our new Vista home! The floorplan and finishes were exactly what we were looking for in a new home in NoDa. The project managers, sales coordinator, and other services we received in regards to our home were top-notch. Special thanks to Ariel, who addressed every detail and made it all so perfect! Thank you Vista Homes for building just where we wanted to be! We couldn’t be happier with our new home.”

Melissa L.
“Can I give 10 stars?! Vista Homes is by far my vote for the best quality, most honest, and overall most knowledgeable builder in the Charlotte area. I have completed probably a dozen deals with Vista and each experience is somehow better than the last! The whole team is great- everyone from ownership, sales people, admin/office crew to contractors. Anyone looking for the best possible experience when building a new home should without a doubt call these guys!”

Garrett K.
"The entire Vista Team is top notch. They are extremely detailed, responsive, communicative, and they care. Vista and team go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience and they want you to be happy with your new home. I have worked with Vista on a few new builds and I will continue to refer my clients to them."

Anne M.
"Vista Homes builds their homes with no detail left behind. The homes are crafted with not only high-end finishes but with a family’s every day use in mind. They utilize every sqft to maximize your needs. The process from start to finish was nothing less than enjoyable. Mariessa and Chandler were both absolutely wonderful to work with and I’m so thankful I chose a Vista Home."

Hali E.
“We have been in our Vista Home for over a year and still can't believe we’re fortunate enough to live here! Vista provided us with our dream home at an incredible value. A recent appraisal estimates that we have gained $70k in equity already. If you are looking for a beautiful, quality home in some of the hottest areas in Charlotte. I highly recommend you look at a Vista home."
