Why wait if your kids are still living at home. Let them enjoy your new log home too! If you are near retirement age and the kids are gone, why not build it to vacation in now and retire later.
Here is a true story-
A young couple came in and we priced an Eagle II for them. After seeing the price they decided to wait to build so they could save some money. For three years they rented and were able to put $15,000 in their savings. But when they came back the price of the home had gone up $18,000, so all of the money they had saved lost all of its buying power due to inflation. Don’t wait, let’s get started today!
You’ve found the perfect floor plan, but want a more luxurious home.
Don’t worry, when it comes to building your dream home, the sky’s the limit. Here are some ideas to help make your dream home more unique.
Our kitchen designers can design the kitchen or bath of your dreams. This photo shows 9’ ceilings, knotty alder windows, custom farm sink, granite counter tops and butcher block island.
Yes, log homes appreciate much faster than regular homes, so they are an excellent investment. The sooner you build the better. Building costs go up every year, and right now interest rates are very low.
It takes approximately the same amount of time as a standard home. It takes about 3-4 months to build a 1,400 – 1,800 square foot home, 5-6 months for a 1,800 – 2,100 square foot home, and 6-9 months for a 2,200 – 3,200 square foot home. It depends on how large of a crew your builder has and how difficult the house is to build, etc.
Let’s say your builder tells you it will take 4 months to build your new log home. Tell him you will give him 5 months, but after 5 months he owes you $100 per day. This is a good way to protect yourself so the builder doesn’t take on more jobs while letting yours sit. Have him put it in his contract.
It is really simple, we listened to you, the customer. Here is how it happened and here is how we were able to accommodate our customers. When we first started selling log homes, we also had a building center. We set up our first log model home in the parking lot of the building center and when potential log home customers came in and asked how much the log home was, we told them $22,000.00 and they said “Great”! We want one. Then they asked does that include the kitchen cabinets, the bathroom fixtures, the fireplace, the closet shelving, the light fixtures, the countertops, and garage door? And the answer at that time was no. We found people wanted the whole package, not just the shell. Because we had everything available in the building center to make it a complete package, we started to include everything in the package and the rest is history. We must be doing something right as our sales are growing approximately 27% each year.
You want a high quality log home package and don’t want to overpay.
You want the most complete package and you don’t want any surprises to pop up after it is too late.
You want the most complete package because you don’t have a lot of time to waste shopping a hundred different stores.
You want a complete package, so all things fit and work together and if they don’t it is our responsibility.
We are not high pressure, we aren’t going to talk you into a full log if you really need or want a half log (split log home). We offer both so it is your choice.
You want dry logs, you don’t care how they got that way, you just want dry logs.
You want to buy from people who care about your new home, appreciate your business and will service you in the years to come.
You want a log home company who can customize standard plans or draw completely new plans and not pay extra in the end for that. You want kitchen and bath designers on staff to help coordinate the finished project.
You don’t want to be tricked by some slick salesman. You want to be told the truth even if the truth doesn’t sound as good.
Golden Eagle is owned and operated by brothers Jay and Tod Parmeter of Wisconsin Rapids, WI, not some overseas corporation or conglomerate. We actually work 6 days a week at Golden Eagle Log Homes, we actually live in a Golden Eagle Log Home, and can actually be reached if you have a problem before, during, or after the sale.
We are flexible. If you want to deduct something out of our complete package, for example your brother is a cabinetmaker, we can deduct them and credit your account for them.
We listen to you, your needs, and wants. It is not about what we want; it is about what you and your family wants.
With a “complete package” all the components will be compatible. Your doors, windows, cabinets, plumbing, vanities, etc. will all be the right size, right color, and will coordinate throughout the home.
Speaking of windows, let’s say you buy one house full of windows once in your life, or one kitchen once in your life and then you have trouble with them. Who do you think the manufacturer will help more? The customer who bought from them one time and will never buy again, or Golden Eagle Log Homes who purchases over 130 houses full of windows or 130 kitchens every year.
With a complete package you will know what your total costs are.
Our customers have an almost unlimited range of choices while choosing their package. Visit the Bertch or Homecrest Cabinetry websites just to see the kitchen and bathroom cabinetry available to our customers.
With an incomplete package no one party will know the whole project and many things can get overlooked and forgotten until the end, then things get tense.
Golden Eagle has customer service staff to handle any situation that may arise. A complete package from Golden Eagle Log Homes will simplify your life.
