Secure Your Log Home Package With a 10% Deposit
Building a log home often requires time to coordinate land, financing, builders, permits, design decisions, and construction schedules.
The Original Log Cabin Homes 36-Month Lay-A-Way Program gives customers a way to secure a log home package with as little as a 10% initial deposit while allowing additional time to prepare for delivery.
Rather than waiting until every part of the project is ready, you can begin securing your home package while continuing to work through the other decisions involved in building.
Start With 10%
Advantages of a 10% Deposit
The initial deposit allows you to begin securing your log home package without having to complete every part of your building project at once.
Secure Your Package
Your initial 10% deposit begins the Lay-A-Way process and secures your selected log home package under the applicable program terms.
Protect Your Purchase Price
An additional 10% deposit at the end of the first year and another 10% at the end of the second year can continue protecting your purchase price for up to three years.
Continue Planning
Use the Lay-A-Way period to work through property, financing, builder selection, design changes, permits, and construction planning.
Choose Your Delivery Time
Take delivery at any point during the 36-month period when your project is ready, subject to the required delivery notice.

More Time to Prepare
Why Use a Log Home Lay-A-Way Program?
Not every customer is ready to take delivery the day they choose their floor plan.
You may still be purchasing land, selecting a builder, arranging construction financing, modifying your home, obtaining permits, preparing the building site, or planning for a future construction date.
The 36-Month Lay-A-Way Program gives you additional planning time while allowing you to begin securing your log home package and protecting your purchase price.

You Can Still Customize Your Log Home
Securing your package does not mean every design decision has to be final on day one.
Customers may make design changes or change their selected home model before the final milling date, subject to the required project and delivery timing.
Our floor plans are starting points, and our design team can continue helping you refine the home as your project develops.

Lay-A-Way Is Different From Construction Financing
The 36-Month Lay-A-Way Program is a purchase program offered by The Original Log Cabin Homes. It should not be confused with a construction loan or mortgage.
Customers who need financing for land, construction, labor, or other project costs may also explore separate log home construction financing options.
