How It Works

1
Define Your Requirements

We start by defining your requirements for both the land and the home, including any return on investment considerations.

Learn More →

We’ll discuss your requirements in two key areas:

Land/Location Requirements:

  • Location preferences and school districts
  • Directional preferences (which way you want the front door to face)
  • Lot topography preferences (flat, sloped, views)
  • Walkability to retail, restaurants, and amenities
  • Lot preferences (size, privacy, mature trees)

Home Requirements:

  • Which front elevation or architectural style do you like — modern, transitional, or traditional, etc?
  • Square footage, including the basement
  • Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
  • What floor you want the primary suite on
  • Must-have features vs. nice-to-haves
  • Budget range and financing timeline
  • ROI considerations if you plan to sell within 5-10 years

Your Path Forward:

We help you get whatever you want—whether that’s:

  • Buying one of our homes for sale (under construction or move-in ready)
  • Finding an existing move-in ready home (new or older)
  • Buying another builder’s home
  • Remodeling an existing home
  • Building a new custom home from scratch

Define Your Requirements →

2
Start Posting Addresses for Lots

We begin posting addresses for available lots from two sources:

  • Public Listings
  • Paramount’s Private Wholesale Acquisition List
Learn More →

Public Listings: We monitor MLS daily for new teardown opportunities in your target neighborhoods (Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com).

Private Wholesale List: Our biggest advantage. We acquire off-market properties before they hit MLS—often from:

  • Estate sales and probate situations
  • Homeowners downsizing or relocating
  • Pre-foreclosure opportunities
  • Direct mail campaigns in target neighborhoods

Many of our clients find their perfect property from our private list—giving them access other buyers never see.

3
Evaluate Properties You Like

For the addresses you’re interested in:

  • Walk the Lot: Visit the site in person to assess its potential
  • Perform a Feasibility Study: Determine the exact buildable area of the lot
Learn More →

What We Analyze During the Feasibility Study:

  • Lot Coverage Ratio: Maximum buildable square footage allowed
  • Setbacks: Required distances from property lines (front, side, rear)
  • Easements: Areas where you cannot build (utility access, drainage)
  • Topography: Slopes, drainage patterns, grading requirements
  • Zoning Restrictions: Height limits, FAR (Floor Area Ratio), parking requirements
  • Utilities: Water, sewer, gas, electric connections
  • Environmental: Flood plains, resource protection areas (RPA), tree preservation
  • Access: Driveway placement, street access, sight lines

If you hired separate architects and engineers for this analysis, it can cost as much as $1,500-$2,500 or more per property (and takes 2-3 weeks). We include it in your unlimited package—and complete it in 2 days or less.

4
Layout a Concept Plan on a Site Plan

We create a concept floor plan and front elevation rendering designed specifically for your lot—showing exactly what you can build and how it will look from the street. This includes all floors (basement through 3rd floor if applicable) laid out on your site plan to show exactly how the home fits the property.

Learn More →

We use one of three methods to create your concept plan:

1. Portfolio Selection:

Choose from 700+ plans we’ve designed over 30 years, searchable by:

  • Square footage (2,000 – 8,000+ sq ft)
  • Architectural style (Colonial, Craftsman, Contemporary, Traditional, and more)
  • Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
  • Lot requirements (width, depth, slope)
  • Special features (garage location, primary suite location)

2. Modifications:

Take any existing plan and modify it — add a bedroom, change kitchen layout, extend the primary suite, or any other changes.

3. Custom Design:

Our staff architect creates a custom concept plan in 2 days, including basement, 1st floor, 2nd floor, 3rd floor (optional), and front elevation rendering.

Calculate an Exact Base Home Price

We provide an exact base home price based on our Standard Selection Package.

Learn More →

Our Standard Selection Package is a comprehensive 55-page document that includes:

  • Complete demolition of existing home and removal
  • All site work, grading, and drainage
  • New utility connections (water, sewer, gas, electric)
  • Foundation and structural systems
  • Roofing, siding, windows, and doors
  • HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems
  • Insulation and drywall
  • Kitchen and bathroom fixtures (builder-grade selections)
  • Flooring throughout (hardwood, tile, carpet)
  • Interior and exterior paint
  • Landscaping, sod, and driveway

This is a true all-in price—not a range, not an estimate. You know exactly what your home will cost with our standard selections.

Perform “What-If” Calculations

We create an interactive spreadsheet to explore options and upgrades, allowing you to see the impact of different choices on your total cost.

Learn More →

The Interactive Spreadsheet Shows Exact Price Impact For:

  • Size Changes: Add 3rd floor, finish basement, extend primary suite
  • Finishes: Upgrade to hardwood throughout, premium tile, custom cabinetry
  • Kitchen: Island size, appliance packages, countertop materials
  • Bathrooms: Soaking tubs, tile to ceiling, luxury fixtures
  • Exterior: Stone veneer, premium siding, upgraded windows
  • Specialty: Wine cellar, home theater, outdoor kitchen
  • Energy: Solar panels, geothermal, spray foam insulation

Example: Want to see what adding a 3rd floor costs? Change it in the spreadsheet and instantly see the new total price—no waiting days for a revised quote.

This information makes decision-making faster.

7
Rinse and Repeat

If you don’t like the lot, we repeat the process until you find the perfect property.

Learn More →

This is where the unlimited value really shines.

This could cost $5K or more if you had to retain an architect and an engineer per property.

With our process, you can evaluate as many properties as you want:

  • Compare an unlimited number of lots
  • Test different home designs on the same lot
  • Explore backup options if your first choice falls through
  • Wait for better properties to come on market

Real Example: One client evaluated 12 different properties in two months before finding their perfect match. Total cost? Still just $1,500 (which was credited to their build).

We don’t stop until you find the right combination of Land, Plan, and Price. That’s our commitment.

You Buy Properties at Our Wholesale Cost

When you build with Paramount, you buy your property at the same wholesale cost we do—with zero commission markup.

How This Works:

Private Off-Market Properties:

No real estate commission involved = wholesale pricing by definition. You pay our cost.

Public MLS Properties:

Paramount’s affiliated Realtor handles the transaction mechanics. We credit back the buyer’s commission (typically 2.5-3%). You pay wholesale cost.

The result: Whether public or private, you’re buying dirt at wholesale—the same cost Paramount pays.

The Numbers:

Typical real estate commissions are 5% of total project cost (2.5-3% listing agent + 2.5-3% buyer’s agent).

Example: On a $3M project (land + home), you’d typically pay $75K in embedded commission costs. With Paramount, you pay $0 in commission—you buy at our wholesale cost.

MLS transactions handled by Paramount’s affiliated Realtor, licensed in Virginia, Maryland, and DC.

Not Ready to Build? No Problem.

We’re here to help you get what you need—whatever that is.

Buy our homes for sale
Find existing home
Buy another builder’s home
Remodel existing
Build custom from scratch

We’re solution-focused, not construction-focused. Your goals guide the path.
