Building a Sustainable House

At Jasper Homes, building a sustainable house means crafting a home that respects both the environment and your long-term comfort. Our process begins with smart design — orienting your home to maximize natural light and ventilation while reducing energy demand. We use high-performance insulation, low-emissivity windows, and advanced framing techniques to minimize heat loss and enhance indoor air quality.

Every material we select is chosen for durability, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. From sustainably sourced lumber to low-VOC paints and energy-efficient HVAC systems, each decision contributes to a healthier home and a smaller carbon footprint. We also integrate modern technologies such as solar-ready roofing, smart thermostats, and water-saving fixtures to ensure your home operates efficiently year-round.

Sustainability isn’t just about technology — it’s about designing for the future. By focusing on energy efficiency, low maintenance, and reduced operating costs, Jasper Homes creates residences that deliver comfort, savings, and environmental stewardship for generations. Whether you’re building your first home or a lifelong retreat, our team ensures every detail aligns with your values and the land you live on.

Cost to Build a House

At Jasper Homes, we believe understanding the cost to build a house is essential for confident planning. The final price of your dream home depends on many variables — including location, square footage, architectural design, materials, and the level of customization. In the Pullman and Palouse region, new home construction typically ranges from $180 to $300 per square foot, depending on finish quality and site conditions.

Our transparent process starts with a detailed consultation, where we assess your land, foundation requirements, and utilities. From there, we provide a line-item estimate covering everything from framing and roofing to insulation, HVAC, and finishes. This ensures you know exactly where every dollar is going — before we ever break ground.

We also help you navigate permitting, design changes, and potential upgrades so your budget stays on track. Whether you’re building a compact craftsman or a full custom home, Jasper Homes delivers high-quality construction with clear communication and honest pricing. Our goal is to make your investment predictable, durable, and rewarding for years to come.

    Budgeting

    The hardest part about choosing an investment property is budgeting. Whether it needs a TON of work, or just a moderate amount, the ability to plan ahead and stick to a plan is CRUCIAL in building your dream home.

    Without budgeting, without planning, and forecasting, building your dream custom home would really come down to the ‘Luck of the Draw’.

    When you have been a small business owner for 25 years, you understand that forecasting financial expenses is a necessity. Even MORE so when you manage a small company, work part time AND manage a household.

    But nothing is impossible, if you know how to manage expenses on the computer. 25 years ago, I don’t know how people would have done this, but now things are easier. Being able to seamlessly use Google Sheets, or Microsoft Excel Online is a dream come true. But not everything is as simple as a simple list of expenses.

    But it’s only through Teamwork- working with some great contractors, and being able to rely on other people. It’s a tough process, but I have some tricks up my sleeve, and I’d love to tell you more.. but I don’t want to share ALL my secrets.

    Walk-through / Inventory

    Being able to look at a property and imagine a BETTER way to do things is important. The creative process is an amazing journey. Most people have some interesting ways to trick people into spending more than they want to.

    One of my friends has this theory that if you want to sell a house QUICKLY you should paint it Yellow. I don’t know about the logic on that.

    But I know that many people tackle home improvement projects, and then they find out that they can’t complete the job. Maybe they run out of time, energy and money. Maybe they run out of all 3! But being able to look at a garage that is unfinished and to imagine a new Living Room, there is a certain magic to having a creative eye.

    Identify the Property

    This is part of my ‘Recipe for Success’. Many online tools, a lot of ‘pounding the pavement’, dealing with city and county government, and a large amount of patience and persistence do sift through these sources and make a solid, scientific decision. Here are some of the tools that we use to find properties.

    We can help~!

    Top 10 Sources for Finding Properties

    1. Realtor.com – Pullman, WA listings (Whitman County)

    Broad, well-known aggregator: lets you browse by city or county (Pullman is featured). Good filter base.

    2. Realtor.com – Moscow, ID listings (Latah County)

    Same as above but for the Idaho side of the Pullman/Moscow region.

    3. Zillow – Pullman, WA listings

    Another major aggregator. Good for building alerts / scraping updates

    4. Zillow – Clarkston, WA listings (Asotin County)

    Covers the Lewiston/Clarkston market

    5. Realtor.com – Clarkston, WA listings

    Alternate aggregator for the same region—useful for cross-checking.

    6. Land.com – Land/Acreage in Whitman County, WA

    If you’re interested in land, acreage or rural/ranch type properties in the region this is more specialized.

    7. Movoto – Whitman County, WA listings (house‐scale)

    Yet another aggregator; adds diversity for your data feed and might pick up listings missed elsewhere.

    8. Local brokerage – Beasley Realty (Pullman/Moscow area)

    A brokerage focused on the Pullman/Moscow area. Good source for hyper-local listings and possibly off-market or early listings.

    9. Local brokerage – Silvercreek Realty (Lewiston/Clarkston region)

    Covers Lewiston‐Clarkston valley. Good for capturing that side of the market.

    10. Classifieds/FSBO – Craigslist Pullman-Moscow region real estate section
    craigslist

    Often lower-profile listings (FSBO, land, small parcels) that may not appear in the major MLS or aggregator feeds. Great for finding “hidden gems.”

    Financials

    When researching the financial details of building your Dream Custom Home, frequently it takes extra time and effort to be able to see the bottom line.
