Summary: In Grove Frisco, buyers can choose between inventory (move-in ready) homes and building a custom or semi-custom residence. Each path has advantages—this guide helps you decide which is right for your timeline, lifestyle, and goals.



One of the biggest decisions in buying new construction is whether to build from the ground up—or buy an available home.



Grove Frisco offers both options from its builders, giving luxury buyers the flexibility to match their timeline and customization goals.



Inventory (Spec) Homes:

  • Move-in ready within 30–90 days

  • Fixed features, colors, and finishes

  • Ideal for buyers relocating on a deadline or seeking convenience

  • May come with builder incentives or price reductions



Custom/Semi-Custom Homes:

  • Build time typically 9–12 months

  • Choose lot, floorplan, design finishes, and structural upgrades

  • Greater control over layout, materials, and lifestyle functionality

  • More upfront cost and time commitment, but higher personalization
