Quotes
We couldn't be happier with Dunn & Stone Builders!  Our home in Magnolia was completed in July 2017. This is our second Dunn & Stone home. After researching several new home builders, it became evident that no one else could match the quality and competitive cost to build our home. We shared our design plans and they brought our dream home to life! What amazed us was that there were absolutely NO hidden costs, great communication throughout the project, and it was completed on time.”

Quotes
This company does some excellent work. When we were considering buying one of their homes they were very helpful in making sure that we comfortable and well informed about the entire experience. Our home is beautiful and is constructed with quality materials and even better craftsmanship. We've only had one problem arise that was covered by warranty and they had a technician at the house within a matter of hours. It's been a great experience working with them.”

How Long a Montgomery Build Takes
Most custom homes in Texas take 9 to 14 months from contract signing to move-in. Design and permitting come first, then the construction phase.

Our local knowledge keeps that timeline on track. County floodplain signoff, septic approval, and HOA review each add weeks when they are missed. See our build timeline for a breakdown of each phase.

One recent custom home we delivered in Montgomery Trace was just over 3,300 square feet and moved from start to delivery in 243 days. Clear decisions early made the difference.

Permits and Site Work for Montgomery County Lots
Montgomery County permitting is generally straightforward and takes two to three weeks for most lots. We see more complexity on rural acreage, where septic and well planning add steps, and on lots near Lake Conroe, where slope can require pier-and-beam foundations.

Municipal lots inside the City of Montgomery follow city rules, which add cost and review time compared with unincorporated county land. We handle these steps as part of our standard process so you never have to chase paperwork on your own. For the latest official requirements, check Montgomery County Development Services.

Custom Home FAQs
How much does it cost to build a custom home in Montgomery County?

Most Montgomery County builds run $150 to $300 per square foot, depending on size and finish level. A fixed-contract price locks your number from the start. Our cost-to-build calculator gives an estimate tailored to your home.

Do you need a permit to build a house in Montgomery County, TX?

Yes. New homes need a development permit through the county or city, plus an on-site septic permit for rural lots and a 911 address. We handle floodplain reviews and septic planning as part of our standard process. Our Montgomery County permit guide covers every step.

Can Dunn & Stone build on land I already own?

Yes. We build on any lot inside our 60-mile radius, which covers Montgomery County and most of the Greater Houston area. We do not sell land, but we can connect you with partners who help buyers find and secure it.

How long does it take to build a home in Montgomery?

Most custom homes in Texas take 9 to 14 months from contract signing to move-in. Design and permitting come first, followed by construction. Local permitting knowledge keeps the schedule from slipping. Recent builds in the area have finished the construction phase in as little as 217–243 days when decisions were made early and site work was handled upfront.

Do you offer construction loans and financing?

Yes. A design deposit of $10,000 to $15,000 starts the process, then you put 10% to 15% down at closing. We combine construction and permanent financing into one loan with one closing. Buyers with equity in a current home can often apply it toward the down payment.

What Montgomery neighborhoods do you build in?

We build across communities like Grand Lake Estates, Montgomery Trace, Crown Oaks, Ridgelake Shores, and High Meadow Estates, plus private acreage throughout the county.
