What Building
In Bennet Takes

Bennet issues its own building permits. We prepare the application, stake the house, and build it.

  1. A survey firstFor new construction the city requires a survey, with the lot lines clearly marked for the zoning inspection.
  2. The footprint stakedThe area of the new house gets staked or flagged on the lot so the city can check it against the zoning.
  3. Plan review and permitThe city charges a plan review fee, a zoning fee, and a building permit fee, with separate plumbing, HVAC, and gas permits.
  4. Sewer and water hookupsBennet lists hookup charges for sewer and water. We confirm current amounts when we put your budget together.
  5. Design and permit setFloor plans, elevations, and construction documents, submitted and carried through review by the people who drew them.

Questions

Before You Book

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

Yes. Bennet is in Lancaster County, where we design and build from our office at 285 S 68th Street Place in Lincoln.

The City of Bennet, from its office at 685 Monroe Street. A permit is needed for new construction inside the city.

A survey, with the lot lines marked and the footprint of the new house staked or flagged for the zoning inspection, along with the application and construction plans.

We plan homes at $225 per square foot for basic finishes, $250 for mid-tier, and $300 and up for top-tier. Land is separate, and so is site work such as a driveway, well, septic system, or power brought to the house.

For most homes, no. Nebraska lets a single-family home under 10,000 square feet be designed without a licensed architect, so a design-build team like ours can design and build it.

Send us the address or the lot you are looking at. We confirm what the city needs, then talk through the home you want and what your budget supports.

How we work

Our Process

Four steps, one team. You meet the people who draw your home and the people who build it on day one.

  1. Step 1: Discovery & Site Visit

    We start on your lot or in your house. We walk it with you, talk through how you live, what the budget looks like, and what the zoning allows, so the first sketch is grounded in the real site.

  2. Step 2: Design & Permits

    Our designers draw the home, from concept plans to construction documents, and we carry the permit set through the city ourselves. You see every revision before it moves forward.

  3. Step 3: Pricing & Pre-Construction

    With the drawings set, we price the build line by line, lock the schedule, and walk you through selections. Because we design and build, the people who drew the plans price them, and you see every invoice once work starts.

  4. Step 4: Build & Handover

    Our crew builds what we drew. You get one point of contact, regular walkthroughs, and a clean handover with the documents, warranties, and a home that matches the plans.
