Timelines: If you buy a raw home site and design a custom home, the community notes it can take up to two years to design and begin construction due to design, ARC approvals, permitting, and site prep. Review the guidance on the home sites page. Production or spec homes may have shorter timelines, but schedules still depend on lot delivery and builder pipeline.
Market factors to watch
Fulshear and greater Fort Bend County are growing quickly. Large master-planned projects and land acquisitions are adding thousands of homes and bringing in national builders, which can shape pricing and construction schedules. For context on regional growth, see the Houston Chronicle’s coverage of a major new master-planned community entering the Fulshear-Katy area: major land acquisition and new homes pipeline. Strong absorption in the area can also tighten timelines during hot periods.
How to verify what’s active right now
Before you make decisions, take these steps:
- Call the Fulshear Run sales center to confirm which builders are selling in each section today. Start with the community’s builder page.
- Contact each builder’s local sales office to confirm pricing, spec inventory, model access, and warranty terms.
- Request the recorded CCRs, ARC guidelines, and any approved-builder lists from the seller, HOA, or Fort Bend County Clerk. MLS listings often reference approved builders for individual lots.
- Confirm whether your lot is inside Fulshear city limits or unincorporated Fort Bend County, since that can affect permitting and utilities. The location page is a helpful starting point.
Pro tips for choosing your builder
- Define your timeline. If you need to move sooner, a spec or near-complete build may fit better than a fully custom design.
- Budget for soft costs. On larger home sites, plan for design fees, ARC review, lot prep, utilities, and potential impact fees.
- Review warranties. Production builders often have standardized coverage, while custom builder warranties vary. Ask for samples before you sign.
- Match the plan to the lot. Larger, irregular, or pond-adjacent sites benefit from early site planning to maximize placement, views, and drainage.
- Verify approvals early. Ensure your preferred builder is approved for your specific section and that your design aligns with the CCRs.
