What Makes Building a New Home with Stateson Homes Different? 7 Steps from Homesite to Move-In

Building with Stateson Homes means working with a locally owned Virginia homebuilder that has completed more than 1,000 homes. You choose your community, homesite and floor plan, personalize your finishes at our Design Center, stay involved from your pre-construction meeting to your pre-drywall tour, and move in in under six months, backed by a clear warranty process after closing.

We're headquartered in Blacksburg and build across the New River Valley, the Roanoke Valley and Virginia's Northern Neck. We know these towns because we live in them. Every community we plan is designed for the people who will call it home, not for an investor's spreadsheet.

Here's how it works, step by step.

Step 1: Choose Your Community and Homesite

Every great home starts with the right place. Some buyers want a walkable town center with shops and restaurants nearby. Others want a quiet street, a bigger backyard or a mountain view.

Our communities cover that range:

• Walkable town-center living at Clifton Town Center in Christiansburg and Daleville Town Center in Daleville
• Townhomes, villas and single-family homes at Westhill in Blacksburg, minutes from Virginia Tech
• Single-family neighborhoods in the Roanoke Valley, including Millstone in Daleville and Foothills and King's Walk in Roanoke
• Hills Quarter in Irvington, on Virginia's Northern Neck

Within each community you choose your homesite, not just your house. Your homesite shapes your curb appeal, how much sun your kitchen gets, how private your backyard feels and what you see from your front porch. Our sales team knows every homesite in every community and can walk you through the trade-offs before you decide.

The perfect home isn't just about what's inside the walls. It's about where those walls stand.

Step 2: Pick the Floor Plan That Fits Your Life

Life doesn't look the same for everyone, so your home shouldn't either.

Stateson builds three main home types:

• Townhomes: low-maintenance living, popular with first-time buyers and professionals who'd rather spend weekends doing something other than yard work
• Villas: easy, mostly single-level living with less upkeep
• Single-family homes: room to grow, with main-level living plans for buyers who want their primary suite on the first floor

Whether you're buying your first home, making room for a growing family, downsizing for retirement or relocating for a new job, there's a plan built for how you live today and how you'll live five years from now.

And because Stateson works with M2B Mortgage as our preferred lending partner, you can plan your home and your financing in one place.

Your home should work for you, not the other way around.

Step 3: Personalize Your Home at the Stateson Design Center

This is where a floor plan becomes your home.

At the Stateson Homes Design Center, you'll pick the finishes that set the look and feel of every room, including flooring, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures and more. You won't be doing it alone: our design team guides you through each selection, shows you how the pieces work together and helps you make choices you'll still love years from now.

The result is a home where the details feel intentional, the spaces feel inviting and the finished product feels like you.

Step 4: Stay Involved During Construction

Building a home shouldn't feel like watching from the sidelines. At Stateson, you're part of the process from start to finish.

Your pre-construction meeting

Before construction begins, you'll sit down with our team to review your plans and selections, ask questions and learn exactly what to expect. Everyone starts on the same page.

Your pre-drywall tour

Once your home is framed and before the walls are closed up, you'll tour it in person. You'll see the framing, wiring and plumbing that most homeowners never get to see, and the craftsmanship that goes into every Stateson home.

Weekly updates

You won't have to wonder what's happening on your homesite. We keep you updated every week so you always know where your home stands.

Step 5: How Long Does It Take to Build a Stateson Home?

Our goal is to get you into your new home in under six months.

That timeline matters when you're timing a lease ending, a new job, a growing family or the sale of your current home. Our build process is efficient because our teams are local, experienced and have built more than 1,000 homes together in these markets.

Less time waiting. More time living.

Actual construction timelines vary by floor plan, selections, site conditions, weather and other factors.

Step 6: Settle In with Confidence Through Our Warranty Process

Our relationship with you doesn't end when you get your keys.

After closing, our warranty process gives you a clear way to submit a request and know what to expect while it's reviewed. [Janiele: insert 1–2 sentences on actual coverage, e.g., "Every Stateson home includes a [X]-year warranty on [workmanship/systems] and a [X]-year structural warranty," plus how to submit a request.]

Moving into a new home comes with plenty of questions. We'd rather you spend your energy making the house your own.

Warranty coverage, terms, exclusions and procedures are subject to the applicable warranty documentation.

Step 7: Make Room for What Matters Most

The best part of building a new home isn't move-in day. It's everything after.

It's morning coffee in your favorite spot, Sunday dinners around the table, the first holiday in a house that's yours and all the ordinary days that make a house a home.

Our buyers don't all want the same thing. Some need room to grow. Some want less maintenance and more free time. Some are putting down roots for the first time, and some are starting fresh. That's why we offer homesite choice, a range of home types, a full Design Center, an under-six-month build and a real warranty process: so you can build a home that fits your life, not someone else's.
