Generally, it takes 2-4 months to finalize siting, any custom design details, and site-specific permitting. Then it’s 10-12 months for construction, depending on lead times for some materials and location of your site. So you’ll be enjoying your cabin in about a year!

The hard construction costs start at USD250,000 for the studio model, not including land, site and utility costs, and soft costs such as fees and permits. Variables like power and water services, material selections, market fluctuations, and other site-specific challenges can affect the cost, so please contact us for a quote based on your location.

This is designed to meet building codes anywhere in the USA, so please contact us for details.

Some windows and door configurations are easy to modify within the constraints of the existing permits. We can customize the orientation and location on your site, as well as flip the plan if that works better. We have a number of options for exterior finishes, and the interior fixtures and finishes are an opportunity to really infuse your home with your personality.

Generally, this site-built format offers some design options that would not be possible with pre-fab, plus it's almost always less expensive. Because we build many of these cabins, we also take advantage of many of the efficiencies and reduced waste that pre-fab companies offer.

HMH is a licensed general contractor in California so we handle all of the permitting and construction. If you’d like to build this in another state or country, HMH will work with your local contractor to get the cabin built.

HMH does not finance projects, but we’ll equip you with all the information you’ll need to apply for a construction loan from a lender and can provide information for lenders that we've worked with.
