- Notes:
  > It’s easy to get caught up in personal preferences when building a custom home, but ignoring resale value is a mistake. While you should definitely tailor your home to your tastes, it’s wise to avoid overly unique or quirky designs that might not appeal to others. 
  > 
  > Think about elements that will stand the test of time and attract future buyers, such as a functional layout, modern amenities, and durable materials. Even if you plan on living in your custom home for years to come, life is unpredictable, and having a home that others will want to buy gives you a safety net.
