How It Works

Three ways to own a Scarlett home

Choose the timeline that fits your move. Every path includes the same standard features and craftsmanship.

01

Build New

9 to 10 months

Choose your lot and model, then customize the floor plan, exterior and every finish with our design team. Most floor plan changes are free of charge.

02

Quick Closing

3 to 4 months

Homes completed to the drywall stage, so you move in sooner and still choose your flooring, cabinetry, tile, counters and paint.     

03

Move-In-Ready

Ready now

Fully finished homes, ready for you today. Tour them in person or through an interactive 3D iGuide walkthrough.                                                  

From Our Homeowners

In their words

★★★★★

My husband and I have purchased a home with Scarlett Homes and could not be happier. Michael and John have exceeded our expectations. This is our third new build (first with Scarlett), and we can confidently say, they have gone above and beyond compared to previous experiences. Their items that are included as standard options are often considered upgrades with other companies. Their attention to detail and pride in their work is very evident. Highly recommend Scarlett Homes!

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Customization is one of the main reasons buyers choose us over high-volume builders. You can make changes to our floor plans, exteriors and finishes, and most floor plan changes are free of charge. No two homes we build are exactly the same.

It depends on the path you choose. A new build on a vacant lot takes about 9 to 10 months. A Quick Closing home, already completed to drywall, takes about 3 to 4 months. Move-In Ready homes are finished and available now.

We complete a few homes to the drywall stage so buyers can move in faster while still choosing their interior selections: flooring, kitchen layout and cabinetry style and colours, tiles, countertops and wall paint.

We currently build at Sheldon’s Gate on Hamilton’s West Mountain and at Meadowlands of Ancaster, where one final home remains. We have built in Hamilton and Ancaster since 1987 and are excited about future projects in the area in the years to come.
