PACKAGE C TURNKEY · FINISH SCHEDULE · v1.0

The Silver finish schedule.

This is what "Silver tier" actually means when you sign a Turnkey contract with us. Every allowance is called out with a real dollar number so nobody's guessing when it's time to pick tile. Everything above the allowance is a change order, priced in writing before we buy anything.

How to read this page.

Turnkey is priced at the Silver finish tier as a baseline. That number — starting at $395K Greers Ferry / starting at $495K Tablerock / starting at $720K Truman — assumes the allowances below. Gold and Platinum are two upgrade tiers with real, published multipliers so you can price your build up before you sign anything.

Silver tier · baseline

Included in the starting-at price

Solid mid-range finish. Semi-custom cabinets, quartz counters, LVP + tile floors, name-brand plumbing. Move-in ready.

Gold tier · upgrade

Adds from $35K

Custom cabinets, upgraded counters, engineered hardwood, better plumbing brands, upgraded tile and lighting. Priced on request.

Platinum tier · upgrade

Adds from $75K

Full-custom cabinetry, natural-stone counters, wide-plank hardwood, high-end fixtures, designer tile. Priced on request.

Why we publish this Because "turnkey" is the word every builder hides behind. Two buyers walk in expecting a finished house and one gets particle-board cabinets while the other gets an upcharge letter. Not here. You see the number, you see the tier, you pick the upgrades before signing — and the contract price holds.

The Silver allowances.

Every allowance below is stated as the material cost we build into the fixed-price Turnkey contract. Labor to install is included in Turnkey at no extra cost — it's our crew, on our schedule. If you pick material that costs more than the allowance, the difference is a change order. If you pick material that costs less, we credit the difference back on the final invoice.

What's not in the Silver number.

Turnkey excludes these — even at Silver
  • Site prep and utilities to the slab — site clearing, grading, driveway, well/septic or municipal water & sewer taps, electric service to the meter base, propane/gas line.
  • Building permits and impact fees — jurisdictional; you pay these direct to the county.
  • Landscaping, decks, docks, patios, pools, fencing — separate scopes, priced on request.
  • Second-floor buildout on Truman — the second story on the Truman is priced as an add-on above the Silver base.
  • Appliances above the $4,500 allowance — the allowance covers stainless mid-tier. Professional-grade appliances are Platinum territory.
  • Washer, dryer, and window treatments — not included at any tier.
  • Owner-selected upgrades — any item you pick above the allowance number.

Gold and Platinum — what they add.

These are priced on request against your specific plan. Rough guidance so you can budget:

Gold tier · typically from $35K to $60K over Silver

Platinum tier · typically from $75K+ over Silver

How the allowance dance actually works.

The single most common turnkey complaint on the internet is "my builder said cabinets were included and then hit me with an upcharge." Here's how we avoid that:

  1. Before the contract: you get this document, you pick your tier (Silver / Gold / Platinum), and any upgrade is priced in writing and added to the contract before you sign.
  2. During selections: we walk you through the allowance-by-allowance list — typically over one selection day at our supplier showrooms. You pick within your tier's allowance and there's no surprise.
  3. If you pick over the allowance: the overage is written up as a change order and priced before the item is ordered. You approve in writing. It's added to the contract.
  4. If you pick under the allowance: you get a credit back on the final invoice.
  5. If we hit an unknown (soil condition, county requiring a specific fixture, a change to the plan): we tell you in writing, price the change, and get your signature before we spend a dollar.

The whole point is: you should never see a number you didn't already know about.

Questions before you sign?

This document is v1.0 (July 2026). If your build starts more than 90 days from now, the allowance numbers may adjust with supplier pricing — but the tier definitions don't change and everything is locked at contract signing.
