Most builders keep pricing behind a curtain. We don't.

Bob Hinz's explanation for why HomeWrights runs open books on both the Method and Turnkey isn't complicated:

"I think it's just easier when all the numbers are shared and there are no secrets."

He credits his parents and four siblings who always emphasized fair play β€” plus a line he attributes to Mark Twain about how telling the truth means you never have to remember what you said.

Transparent numbers. Vetted trades. Your build, your call.

The best part of Bob Hinz's job isn't the finished house.

"There is an aha moment for almost every client where they realize they've got the rudder. It's fun to see their faces light up."

His favorite example: an owner who wrote software for a living. Two months into the build, he was talking to the framing contractor about the cantilever of the front porch beam.

"We all knew they had the skills and the basic intelligence. It simply took the right situation to make it click."

That's the whole premise behind the HomeWrights Method. Not that building a home is easy β€” that it's a system, and systems can be learned. Bob's advice to anyone considering it is four words: do your homework.

Nearly three quarters of a billion dollars in finished custom homes. Zero failed projects.

Ask Bob Hinz for the most fun home he's ever built and he doesn't say the biggest one. πŸ”οΈ

He says the one outside Morrison. Half a mile of driveway up a hillside through five switchbacks. Gas and electric more than 1,000 feet away. Water 900 feet down. Two days of dynamite for the septic, and rock so hard the engineering changed to pin the foundation straight to it.

And the homeowner running the project gave birth to her first child while the foundation was going in. Once the building was dried in, they enclosed the dining room in clear plastic β€” a nursery in the middle of the dust, with mom running her build from a card table desk.

Why fun instead of punishing? "So much creative juice flowing every day, and homeowners that were totally up to the challenge."

He tried hard not to be a homebuilder.

Grad school. Forest products logistics. Years on the road as a consultant, millions of miles. Bob Hinz had watched his dad build custom homes in Colorado and knew exactly what the boom-and-bust life looked like.

Then one day he came home and asked Mary to back him in starting a company.

"Oddly, the gravity of home building pulled me back in."

That company was HomeWrights, and it's been guiding Colorado homeowners through custom builds since 2002. The detour turned out to be the whole point β€” consulting taught him that any big project breaks into smaller pieces, and that structured, repeatable systems work on just about anything. Including a custom home run by the person who's going to live in it.

Douglas County Hilltop Estate

Built for the views, the privacy and the wildlife.

This one sits on a k**b in a gated Douglas County community, with views for miles in nearly every direction. Stone and stucco outside. Inside, the kitchen, breakfast nook, great room and primary suite all open onto the deck, so the outdoors is never more than a few steps away.

The owners built it as their retirement home, and they built it themselves. This is a HomeWrights Owner Builder project, meaning they ran their own build with our systems, our vetted subcontractors and our project managers alongside them the whole way.

You can be your own general contractor without going it alone. See the full project and the rest of our showcase homes: https://homewrights.com/project/douglas-county-hilltop-estate/

$750 million in custom homes. Zero failed projects.

Bob grew up watching his father's carpentry work and swore he'd never join the trade himself. He came back to it in 2002 to build a different kind of company: one where the homeowner keeps control of the project and nobody hides the numbers.

"I think it's just easier when all the numbers are shared and there are no secrets."

That's still how HomeWrights works. Manage your own build with our guidance through the HomeWrights Method, or hand the whole thing to our team with Turnkey. Open books either way.

His advice for anyone thinking about building? "Do your homework. Take the time to understand how the custom home building system really works."

πŸ€” Friday Fun Fact: A 2x4 Isn't a 2x4

Go measure one. We'll wait. πŸ“

A standard 2x4 is actually 1Β½ inches by 3Β½ inches. Not even close to its name! πŸ˜„

Here's why: it starts at a rough-cut 2" x 4" when it's green and freshly milled. Then it gets dried and planed smooth on all four sides β€” and about a half inch disappears in the process. The name stuck anyway.

It's a small thing, but it's a good reminder of something we say a lot around here: in home building, what something is called and what you actually get aren't always the same. πŸ‘€ That's true of lumber, and it's true of budgets, allowances, and bids too.

Ask questions. Measure things. Read the fine print. 🏑

🏠 They All Look the Same on Paper. That's the Problem.

On paper, every Colorado custom home builder looks about the same. πŸ“Έ Nice photos, confident promises, a gallery full of gorgeous finished homes.

So how do you tell who's going to be a real partner… and who's going to cost you tens of thousands you never saw coming? 😬

We put together a straight-talk buyer's guide for exactly that moment. No pitch β€” just the questions to ask, and what it means when a builder dodges them.

πŸ˜… Go Ahead β€” Ask Your Builder the Rude Questions

The best questions to ask a home builder are the ones that feel a little uncomfortable.

πŸ”¨ What are the biggest mistakes you've made on a build?
πŸ’° How do you actually perform against the original budget?
πŸ“Š How much contingency should I really set aside?
πŸ™„ What annoys you most about your clients?
⏰ What causes your biggest delays?

A good builder will laugh, tell you a story, and then tell you what they learned from it. The ones who get cagey about markups, budgets, or mistakes? That's your answer right there.

🚽 We've Seen an $1,100 Toilet Paper Holder

Seriously. 😳

Here's the thing about blown budgets β€” it's almost never the concrete, lumber, or roofing. Those are pretty predictable. It's the finishes, where the price ranges get absolutely breathtaking. (One owner who swore she had "modest" taste discovered scorched pine siding… made in Japan. Beautiful stuff. Beautiful price tag. πŸ’Έ)

That's exactly why we do open-book pricing. πŸ“– Every bid, every receipt, every transaction is out in the open. Go over budget on that granite slab? That's your call β€” we'll just make sure you know what it costs before you make it.

Before you sign with anyone, ask how they handle allowances, change orders, and finish selections.
