The Custom Building Experience
For more than 50 years, we have been crafting luxury custom homes across the Carolinas. What began as a small, locally owned company has grown into one of the region’s most respected custom builders. Our philosophy has never changed. Service, Design, Commitment, Quality, Craftsmanship, and Flexibility guide every decision we make and shape every home we build.
Our award-winning team brings depth, care, and expertise to each step of your journey. Work directly with our in-house architect to create a home inspired by the way you live. Then collaborate with our professional designers, who are among the best in their field, to bring every detail to life through thoughtful, curated selections.
Whether you choose to build in one of our signature communities or on a homesite of your own, we are honored to help turn your vision into a home that feels personal, timeless, and beautifully crafted.

Personalizing Your Pricing and Specifications
Now that you have carefully chosen all of the quality features and finished details to go into your new home, you will have the opportunity to review your personalized pricing and specifications.
Not only will we give you ideas on how to maximize your self-appointed investment range but we will work diligently to stay within that range during the entire process.
Making it Official
Once all the details are finalized, you will be able to review Homes by Dickerson's Purchase Agreement and ask any questions you may have before moving forward with paperwork.
Reviewing Architectural Plans and Approvals
We want to make sure that we have accurately portrayed your vision. You will receive finalized drawings for your review and approval.
Finishing Touches
This is one of the most exciting steps of the entire process as you choose the colors and finishes which reflect your own personal preferences and lifestyle!
Your personal designer will guide you through the design center as they help you bring your vision to life! Whether you are already a design pro or need a little extra help, our award-winning team of designers is here to help!
If you are purchasing a home that is already under construction, your selection process may be limited to those items that have not yet been ordered. A Homes by Dickerson representative will be able to provide you with items that may still be selected.
Going Vertical
From site preparation to your final walk thru, you will experience several scheduled opportunities to meet onsite with your Project Manager.
Each of these meetings represents a different milestone in the construction of your new home. Whether it is your electrical walk-thru or interior trim walk, you will see your home throughout its various stages and be prepared for your homeowner orientation to review final details before closing.
Making a House Your Home
Your Homes by Dickerson Closing Coordinator will help to ensure all details are taken care of and shared with the closing attorney at settlement.
The only step left is to then present you with the key to your new home, after the attorney has it recorded.
Settling In!
Now that you have closed on your new home, you will meet with your Client Care Representative who will be able to guide you through the first year as a Homes by Dickerson homeowner.
Our warranty process includes our three-month and ten-month walk thrus as well as valuable information on homeowner maintenance details.
