What makes Desert Drafting better than the other designers & drafters in the region is Jeff Clarkson’s building experience. Jeff has built hundreds of homes in his 18 years of building, and takes pride in the quality of his work. He didn’t learn how to build and design just from a book, he learned from hands on experience (blood & sweat). With his vast knowledge of building techniques, in 2004 Jeff hung up his tool belt and started Desert Drafting LLC.

Desert Drafting can make 3D CGI(computer-gererated imagery) models & movies even if we didn't do your plans.
GO TO THE
3D CGI Modeling PAGE TO SEE MORE OPTIONS.


Technology has come along way from the T-square, drafting table, and Diazo machine. In keeping up technology 3-d is quickly becoming the norm. During the design process we use short movies to show the client their project.

All clients get the Standard Exterior & Interior Orbit movie with their plans, FREE.

This benefits both the homeowner and builder, by saving them time & money, in hopefully cutting the number of changes and misconceptions. The homeowners, can see what their project will look like in advance, and make changes before the builder ever gets the plans. The builder then shouldn’t have as many disruptions to production and have to stop and make changes.
It's how I would want it as a builder, and how we think it should be done.

Anyone that has built a new home can see how this can be an extreme benefit to both.

Current Economy

I know that the economy is struggling right now. But things are starting to change. Just like every other challenge that has faced this great country, America will persevere and turn things back around. Many people & businesses will comeback stronger that they were before.

More than half of the 30 companies that comprise the Dow Jones Industrial Average were started during an economic downturn and usually the wealthy will become wealthier.

What’s their secret?

What most perceive as a risky investment, these people and business see as an opportunity (and timing is everything).

If you bought property in 1997 by the end of 2006 the property had nearly doubled in value. Whereas if you bought in 2006 your property is probably worth less than what you paid for it. (Buy low, sell high).

A lot of people that are planning to build a new home are currently sitting on the sidelines playing a wait and see game, they probably won’t recognize the upturn until well after it has started, in fact I think it has already started.

Golden Opportunity

Land prices have come down quit a bit from their peak prices during the housing bubble, and I don’t expect them to go down any farther. While interest rates are still very low, labor costs are down because more people are fight for jobs, material prices are down from lack of demand and contractors are lowering their profits in order to gain business.

Building a home isn't going to get any cheaper that it is right now. So if your looking to buy low, now is the time.

Prices & rates will rise

This fall consumer confidence is going to rise, America will persevere, and when it does building costs are going to rise. As will Interest rates  to try and curb inflation.

Builders and suppliers have been cutting cost in order to generate business, but once business starts picking up and demand increases, prices will quickly rise.I to have felt the pinch at the pump and the rise in food cost and when the economy picks back up will be raising prices to compensate.

Before the prices & rates rise

Contact me; we’ll get started on your design now, before prices go up. Once your plan is completed if your still not sure if the time is right to build you can hang onto those plans (building codes aren’t expected to change for another year) this will also give you time to get bids from contractors.

Like I stated before NOW is the time for action, and opportunity. Years from now you could be looking back at this as the best decision you ever made.
