New Home Builders, South Central Wisconsin
Are they any recommendations for new home builders in South Central Wisconsin? We are purchasing an undeveloped lot next to an existing home and need to custom build a lake house that will be an AirBnB.
Any roadblocks to look out for that others have encountered with development in the state?

Lake homes are usually fully custom, because you have to maximize the small amount of land you have. This also means a little higher cost than what you would get from a production builder like Bielinski, Tim o'Brian, Korndorfer. Smaller builders like James Craig Builders or Colby Constructions will be more suitable.
Building permits on lakes are a bit different, your builder will know. Depending on the lake you'll have municipal water and sewer or you may need a well and a holding tank - can't do a spectic system near a lake.
I would not build it too specific for airbnb, keep resale value in mind and follow mainstream trends.
