How to Buy a Barn:
The Barn Pros Process

Project Planning and Research

Every project begins with an idea, which soon evolves into a plan. Your new building will require some careful planning and research on your part and we're here to help guide you through this journey. If you're ready to start planning your project, give us a call and ask for a Pre-purchase Checklist to guide you through this important phase of your project.

What can I do with my land?

Speaking with an official from your local building department will provide you with information about any land restrictions that may be present for your property. Your building authority will also have guidelines for obtaining building permits, if needed for your location. Likewise, if you belong to any Home Owner Associations (HOA’s) or community organizations you will want to verify their specific requirements at this point in your research.

Do I need financing?

Should you require financing for all, or part, of your project, consider contacting your financial institution to research their lending options. Your Barn Pros project specialist can also provide additional resources for financing.

Who will build my structure?

Chances are good that you, or someone you know, has connections to a licensed professional contractor in your area. If not, there are also several online resources and databases that may connect you with a builder. If your inquiries don’t turn up any potentials, talk with your project specialist for potential resources they may have.

Your project specialist will work with you, and within your budget, to find your perfect building. They will walk you through options in detail to make sure items on your ‘wish list’ are taken into consideration and that you’re confident with the end result - whether your hobbies include horses or horsepower; our multi-use models are designed to off er maximum flexibility for your needs and lifestyle.

What types of buildings can I choose from?

Can I make changes to the building?

We provide a variety of options for your structure that can be combined to create your specific building. Each model choice is designed to work perfectly with the scale, aesthetics and function of your building – guaranteeing a beautiful and unique end result. Your project specialist will work to identify your ‘wish list’ and translate that into a tailored building to ensure you get exactly what you’re looking for.
