The Problem: Price Shock in Home Design

Too often, homeowners spend months (and thousands of dollars) perfecting a home design, only to be hit with unexpected build costs once the plans reach a builder.

This “price shock” leads to:

  • Costly redesigns

  • Stressful compromises

  • Delays in starting the project

  • Doubts about whether the dream home is even possible

At Willdesign, we believe your design journey should be exciting — not stressful.

Our Solution: Budget Awareness While You Design

We use industry-backed estimating tools to give you real-time cost guidance throughout the design process.

This means:

  • You’ll know early if your ideas fit your budget

  • We can adjust your design before it’s locked in

  • You’ll avoid wasting money on plans that can’t be built affordably

With Willdesign, creativity and cost move forward together — giving you confidence from day one.

The Benefits for You

✔️ Avoid costly redesigns
✔️ Keep your budget on track
