Episode Description

What actually happens when you decide to build a $10 million home?

In this episode of the Gold Coast Podcast, Eric Winegard sits down with Terry Paterson, CEO and President of Paterson Project Management Inc., and Jessica Easterling, COO and Director of Operations, for an inside look at the world of high-end custom home building and development in South Florida.

Terry and Jessica explain why choosing a luxury builder involves far more than comparing the lowest bids. Paterson Project Management typically builds homes in the multi-million-dollar range, with Terry describing projects from roughly $4 million to $16 million and a recently completed residence approaching 20,000 square feet.

They discuss why homeowners should involve a builder early in the architectural process, how ambitious design decisions can push a project far beyond budget, why detailed bidding can take weeks, and what buyers should look for before trusting a company with one of the largest personal investments they may ever make.

They also break down the difference between being a builder and a developer, Terry’s long-term development of Lighthouse Point Yacht Club, the role relationships play in winning ultra-luxury clients, and why reputation can take decades to build.
