Our front door is the first thing people comment on when they come over.

It's a custom pivot door, 8 feet tall and 5'4" wide, made to match the rest of the house.

Swing it open and you can see straight through to the vaulted ceiling at the back.

Before you set your custom-home budget, there's one number people forget the land.

In the Austin area, a build runs $275 to $425 a square foot most of mine land $325 to $375. So a 3,000 sq ft home is roughly $975K to just over $1M.

Then the lot on top. In Dripping Springs right now, that's another $150K to $400K.

Before you fall for a floor plan, run both numbers together. That's your real budget.

Custom Home Inspo Saturday 🎃

A little moody, a little magical, and a whole lot of cozy. Soaring windows, warm lighting, and a winding stone path make this home the perfect inspiration for a Halloween evening.

Who needs a haunted house when your dream home has this much character? 🖤

Happy Halloween from TrueLux Fine Homes!

This or That Friday 🐾

Everyday messes deserve a thoughtfully designed space!

Would you choose the rich cabinetry and organized storage of this laundry and mudroom, or a dedicated dog wash to keep muddy paws in check?

Tell us your pick: THIS for the mudroom or THAT for the dog wash. We’d happily make room for both! 🤍

What are you REALLY paying for when you build a custom home? 👀

The finishes get the attention. The planning, craftsmanship, and decisions behind the walls deserve questions, too.

Before choosing a custom home builder or luxury remodeler, ask: What’s included? What could change? And how will I stay informed along the way?

At TrueLux Fine Homes, we help homeowners in the greater Austin area turn big ideas into spaces built around how they live.

A cheap lot can be the most expensive part of your build. Four things to check before you buy:

1. The slope, steep lots can mean retaining walls and extra foundation work
2. What's under it? Soil decides the foundation, and Hill Country rock has to be cut
3. Utilities are water, power and sewer at the street, or getting them there is on the budget
4. Deed restrictions. These are the rules on the land and decide what you can build

None are deal breakers. You just want to know before you sign.

Found a lot you love? DM us the listing before you buy it.

Where every dollar actually goes in a $2M Austin custom home:

→ Site & foundation-everything before the house is visible

→ Structure-framing, roof, windows

→ The guts-plumbing, electrical, heating & cooling

→ Finishes-the part you fall in love with (and only part of the number)

→ Management- every trade, coordinated for over a year

When you see the whole picture, the number stops being a mystery and starts being a plan.

Three things I check before agreeing to build your custom home:

1. The budget and the vision match with real numbers, early. That conversation is kinder at the start than in the middle.
2. The land- I walk the lot before we commit. Slope, access, what's under it.
3. We work well together. We take on 3-4 builds a year, I run them personally, and we'll be talking most weeks for the next year and a half.

When those three line up, the build almost takes care of itself.

How to bring your build price down without cheapening the house:

TRIM →

1. Square footage before quality- smaller built properly beats bigger built to a price
2. The roofline-every extra ridge and valley is money
3. Phase the outdoor living- patio now, kitchen later
4. Choose your splurge rooms-money where you live

NEVER TOUCH →

The foundation. Everything behind the walls. Once, and right.

Trim smart and nobody will ever see what you saved.
