The steps below will give you a basic idea of the home planning process. Actual meeting and time requirements will vary.

1. Begin by ordering our Portfolio Package and find out why Kuhns Bros. Log Homes, Inc. is the company for you. After reviewing the literature, call your KBLH sales representative to arrange a personalized log home tour and begin planning your own new log home.

2. During this visit your sales representative will help you determine how much home you can afford to build. You'll also discuss finance options, land, models, package options, custom design, experienced construction services, and more. Bring your wish list and begin designing your new home. You can now submit a request for a free KBLH estimate quote.

3. It's time to meet with the financial professional of your choice to formally qualify you for the purchase of your log home package.

4. About two weeks after the initial consultation you will again meet with your KBLH sales representative to review home ideas and the price estimate. Finalize any necessary plan modifications, and submit a $2,000 deposit to start preliminary plans. (Or you can submit a $1,000 deposit for a 12-Month Price Freeze - see your representative for details.) Now is the time to submit a loan application to your financial institution.

5. Your dream home's preliminary plans will be ready in approximately four weeks for your final review and modifications. You must sign off before official architectural blueprints can be done.

6. Final construction plans will be prepared based upon the established firm delivery date and the receipt of a 20% production deposit no later than eight weeks prior to the delivery date . Closing date of your financing needs to be scheduled at least four weeks prior to the delivery of your home package.

7. Lastly, site preparation can be started while KBLH precuts your new log home package. Final payment is due upon delivery. Happy building!
