From Starter Home to Forever Home: A Testimonial

Selected content image

When they started looking for homes in Southwest Florida, first-time homebuyers Matt and Crysten had no idea what was in store for them. In their price range, it seemed that every decent home was either in a terrible location, or was at least 20 years old! The couple managed to find 3 homes that they liked, but optimism quickly turned to frustration and fear when the inspection reports came back. It seemed like every home had a different problem: termites, polybutelene pipes, faulty roofing systems... the list went on and on. Confused and discouraged, the couple looked to the The Westerfield Group for help. When they suggested custom building a home, Matt and Crysten were skeptical, to say the least - how could they ever afford that? Fast forward six months: newlyweds Matt and Crysten are now planning a March move-in date for their custom built home in Bonita Springs. Their new 3 BR 2 BA house will feature a tile roof, quartz countertops, cathedral ceilings, and wood tile floors.

After 14 years of investigating various builders, The Westerfield Group has hand selected premier builders who offer the best quality at the best prices. Because of The Westerfield Group's relationships with these builders, Matt and Crysten were able to design their dream home - including upgrades - for about the same price as the resale homes available. Call us romantics, but we're in the business of making happy endings. Our team knows that sometimes, it takes thinking outside the box to find the perfect fit...and that's the Westerfield Difference.

"Without the help of The Westerfield Group, we honestly don't know what we would have done. Confined by our own ideas of what was available, we toured several resale homes, getting more and more discouraged as we went. Because of the incredible knowledge and guidance from The Westerfield Group, we have been able to build what is truly the home of our dreams. We went from searching for a starter home to building our forever home, and we couldn't be more excited". - Matt and Crysten
