Mike Davis Custom Homes

To turn his custom house into homes, Mike Davis puts the owner, rather than a superintendent , into the daily decision-making process. An approach of this type can only be successful if the following are in place:

A GREAT SET OF PLANS - This means there's a smaller burden on the architect and most calls made are for clarity of purpose.

MAINTAINING SATISFYING RELATIONSHIPS WITH EMPLOYEES.

PUTTING THE OWNER ON A FIRST-NAME BASIS WITH ALL TRADES from the very beginning and not waiting until there's a problem.

A GOOD BUDGET. Mike says, "A good budget makes everybody run an even race. We all know what the budget is. We all know what the spending is. If peopled want to go over budget, it's by their choice, not by my budget."

THE RIGHT CLIENT, one who is secure in the decision-making process. Mike Davis determines this before he makes an agreement to do the job. A key factor is whether a couple has a tendency to reverse each other's decisions or maintain a united front.
