Every client is different, and so are their ideal homes. 

Some are looking for a space to grow into, while others want to downsize to a smaller home that still has some room for guests. And there are those other wants and needs -- such as a home office or elaborate patio -- that matter most. 

Aligning a client’s vision for their next home with what’s possible is an involved, yet rewarding process. There’s nothing more satisfying than handing a client the keys to their new residence. 

Pursuing a custom home building career or becoming a realtor are two of the routes you can take to help clients realize the home of their dreams.

Paul Pare joined the Barden Building Products family about a year ago. In his short time with us, his New Hampshire-based company, The Smart House, has quickly become a dealership that sets an example for others. 

A career owning and operating a custom home building business is exciting. It’s also challenging. Most importantly, it’s rewarding. How many lines of work let you help people realize the home of their dreams? 

Building a custom home is no small task. 

Becoming a custom home dealer is a life-changing decision. So is expanding an existing business. That’s why it’s important to find the right manufacturing partner. 

As a company specializing in designing and supplying custom-home material packages, we’ve seen homes of all shapes and sizes. We often joke that we’ve never manufactured the same home twice, as each homeowner builds a house that meets their specific needs. 

As in past years, 2020 was a busy year for us. Throughout this last year we and our Barden Independent Dealers helped plenty of customers build a wide variety of homes. With our catalog of hundreds of fully customizable floor plans to choose from, it’s almost impossible to see the exact same home constructed twice. 

While each of our floor plans meets different needs, there are a few we love but aren’t often selected. We’ve gathered three of our favorites that we’re hoping to see more of in 2021. 

Perhaps one of these “hidden gems” is your next home?

For every new home concept, there are countless builders who will tell you their construction method is best.
