Building a Custom Home on Your Lot in Rehoboth Beach
Before design begins, we walk your Rehoboth Beach lot and review everything that shapes the home it can hold: zoning and setbacks, lot coverage, the FEMA flood zone and required elevation, the city’s tree-preservation rules, utilities and drainage, and any HOA or community requirements.
If you don’t own land yet, bring us the listing. We would rather tell you a lot isn’t a fit before you buy it. Our guide to building on your lot in coastal Delaware covers the full checklist, and if you are weighing a move-in-ready spec house against building new, see custom home vs. spec home in coastal Delaware.

FAQ
How much does it cost to build a custom home in Delaware?
Many buyers feel building a home can be very expensive and overwhelming. Where do you start? What are the budget considerations? Others wonder if there is a professional that they can trust who can guide them through this process. The price of building a custom home starts with the cost of building the shell. The shell typically accounts for 40-60% of the total cost of a custom home. The size and architectural style of the home are the major factors affecting the shell price. The remaining costs of construction, which will represent 40-60% of the total cost, are based on lot improvements, design, and material selections.
Overall, the buyer is in full control of the final price by making decisions on over 60% of the features that will cause the final pricing to be at, above, or below their desired budget. For further information, download our free guide.
How long does it take to build a house in Delaware?
Building your dream home in Delaware doesn’t have to take forever. Depending on the size and scope, the process can be completed in approximately 9-15 month with a reliable builder and the right lot of land. While your actual build time may be subject to weather delays, obtaining permits, availability of qualified trade partners, etc. CRx’s expertise lends itself to keeping the build time to a realistic estimate. Also, as we progress through the 5 Simple Steps, we will be able to narrow that time frame even more. Building a house in Delaware with the CRx team has never been easier, or faster!
Do you build custom homes on your lot in Rehoboth Beach?
Yes. CRx Construction designs and builds custom homes on lots our clients already own in Rehoboth Beach and the surrounding neighborhoods. Before design begins, we review the lot’s flood zone, setbacks, height limits and any community review requirements, so the home is planned around what the site actually allows.
What permits do you need to build a home in Rehoboth Beach?
It depends on where the lot sits. Inside the City of Rehoboth Beach, permits go through the city’s Building and Licensing Department, and new homes in a flood zone must be built at least one foot above base flood elevation. Many Rehoboth-area addresses are in unincorporated Sussex County, where the county issues the permit. CRx manages the permit process on every project.
Can you build your own house in Delaware?
Building a house in Delaware is certainly possible; however, you will need to obtain special permissions and permits from the local Delaware municipality before doing so. Homeowner permits are required for any new construction projects before commencing work – depending on your renovation or building project, these permits may be required even if you’re simply replacing the same material in kind. It’s important to note that these permits have a one year validity period and cannot be renewed – so make sure you give yourself plenty of time and plan ahead!
How much does it cost to build a house in Sussex County Delaware?
There is no definitive answer to the question of how much it costs per square foot to build a house in Delaware, as each home is unique. Design, schedule, and budget are all factors that control the final pricing of a custom home. After years of working with homeowners, we have found that the best results are achieved when there is a clearly defined objective, an effective strategy, and a workable plan to follow. The two methods used for luxury home projects are known as the Competitive Bid Method and the Collaborative Method. The Collaborative Method is best for assuring that the buyers pricing goals are achieved. It is important to understand who will be making the decisions that affect costs and how those decisions are made. The builder and design team should give the buyer options for each selection with clear allowances established ahead of time, to help reach the desired budget.
Are custom builds cheaper?
Custom builds can often be more expensive than standard, cookie-cutter homes due to their unique nature and the level of personalization involved. There is no straightforward answer to the question of whether custom builds are cheaper because each custom home is tailored to the specific preferences and requirements of the homeowner.
Factors such as design complexity, materials used, square footage, location, and special features all contribute to the final cost of a custom home. Unlike mass-produced houses, where economies of scale can drive down costs, custom homes require more specialized attention and often involve higher-quality materials and craftsmanship.
When it comes to luxury home projects with CRx Construction, two primary methods are commonly used: the Competitive Bid Method and the Collaborative Method. The Collaborative Method is particularly effective in ensuring that the buyer’s pricing goals are met. This approach involves close collaboration between the homeowner, builder, and design team.
In the Collaborative Method, the key is to have a clearly defined objective, an effective strategy, and a workable plan in place. The builder and design team should provide the buyer with various options for each selection, with clear allowances established ahead of time to help the homeowner stay within their desired budget.
In conclusion, while custom builds offer the advantage of creating a home that perfectly fits the homeowner’s needs and preferences, they may not always be cheaper than standardized homes. The cost will depend on various factors, and it is essential for the homeowner to have a well-defined plan and collaborate closely with the builder and design team to achieve their goals.
