2016 Salt Lake City Parade of Homes
Design
Most buyers start their dream of building a home in one of two ways; looking online at pictures and plans and/or driving around and looking for land. Although both of these things are fun to do, they can get old and frankly, a waste of time. To do a custom home right you need to start with design. The type of home you want to build greatly effects what lot you can build it on. Furthermore the lot can greatly effect what you can build, style, views, stairs, layout and more all come into play here. The point is, it all starts with good design. Here at Breen Homes we have all your bases covered, under one roof. We have, in our office not outsourced; a designer, an architect, a draftsman, the builder and an experienced Realtor team. We can help you from start to finish so that your project comes out the way you want it, on time and on budget.
Build
Customers often don’t know where to start when attempting to build a custom home. They usually start with looking at home plans on the internet and saving pictures of designs they like. Although this is helpful it’s the wrong place to start. BreenHomes can guide you through the process; finding land that is improved or can be developed and doing due diligence on your site before you are committed to the site. Building custom homes has continued to get more complicated as cities and counties restrict consumers
Decorate
When it comes to our in office, on team designer we have someone who can walk you through all your selections. Most buyers want to be heavily involved with their build job, and we invite this, however our experience is that most end up biting off more than they can chew. For this reason we brought on Michael Pappas and Utah Home Design. Michael makes all the selections for every Breen Homes spec house or remodel project. He’s looking at the latest styles daily. He does designs in all style types from modern to rustic, craftsman or traditional. Every client wants their own spin on their personal home and at Breen Homes we invite this and we invite you to let Michael hold your hand along the way.
Where can Breen Homes build for me?
Breen Homes has built all around northern Utah.

Our primary marker and focus area for spec homes, subdivision and remodels is east side Salt lake City. This is where we are experts. Many of our projects have been east side SLC tear downs or in fill projects. You could say we are experts at those last few remaining lots that no ones else dare touch on the east bench. We at Breen Homes have made a habit of taking those lots and turning them into something unique, something elegant, something timeless and something the final home owner loves. As of July 2016 there are over 800 lots in Salt Lake and Park City that Breen homes can build you a custom home on. From Under $100k to Over a Million. Let us help you find the right one.

What Finishes are in the Home?
When we tour homes we often find ourselves thinking, “wow, this tile is really neat” or, “I’ve never seen wood floors like this”. Figuring out what finishes are and where they came from can be a very difficult process and unless your in the industry, chances are somewhere like Home Depot are your only options. We’ve also noticed this is a question we not only ask ourselves, but our clients, friends, and family seem to ask us all the time as well. Below we’ve done our best to call out different finishes you may have seen in our Parade Home this year, and what they are.
