Building a Custom Home in Austin Metro, Texas

Local Planning and Lot Research

The Austin Metro hub groups current approved directory listings across the approved Central Texas metro communities. Check the authority that governs the parcel and site-specific requirements before advancing from metro research to a builder agreement.

Building Considerations

Confirm city, county or other authority; then evaluate access, utilities, drainage, topography and any applicable subdivision requirements for the individual property.

Permitting Path

Responsible office: The local authority with jurisdiction over the parcel; this varies within the Austin Metro area.

Review path: Review requirements are jurisdiction- and property-specific. Verify them before committing to a schedule.

Plan around confirmed approvals, site development and the builder’s written construction sequence.
