Yes. I have seen custom homes lose value. The customizations were specific to the owners' wants and needs and not the masses. Example: ruining a third bedroom by adding a built-in office with maybe a murphy bed. You now have 2 bedrooms and a den w/closet. Buyers have to LOVE your built-in design or your home will sit on the market.
