What happens when I visit the Schottenstein Homes Design Center?

Your Design Consultant will be there to help you select finishes based on your personal style, define your vision of your home, and work within your desired budget. Your time in our design center is made to be interactive, exciting, and fun.

How do I prepare for my Schottenstein Homes Design Center appointment?

First, think about how you’ll live in each room. Walk mentally through each space and make a list of the details that will affect your lifestyle. Collect and provide photos and anything else that will help you and your design consultant define your style. Lastly, if you have children, you will need to arrange for a babysitter. We need homebuyers to give their undivided attention to their appointment. We know how difficult it is for little ones to be so patient!

How do my choices affect the cost of my home?

That’s the true value of designing your own home. You pay only for the things that you want to include in the construction of your new home in Columbus. There are also many no-cost choices, and all prices include tax, delivery, installation, and warranty.

How much should I expect to spend on my design choices?

We realize that no two families are the same, and every homebuyer’s desired budget is different. You decide how much to spend on your home’s unique design, and your Design Consultant will work within that desired budget.

Are my design choices added to the purchase price?

Except for custom electrical and custom lighting choices, everything is added to the purchase total providing you the maximum flexibility in structuring your finances for your new home in Columbus, Ohio.

Can I go to the Schottenstein Homes Design Center before I even purchase a home?

Absolutely! Browsing the Schottenstein Homes Design Center is a terrific way to get a feel for what it means to create a home. When comparing Schottenstein Homes to other new home construction in Columbus or resale homes, you’ll see that most other builders don’t come close to the range of personalized choices that Schottenstein Homes provides.
