Yes! Building your house is not rocket science, but it does take a commitment and certain skill set. It consists of understanding a series of tasks, staying organized, being proactive and managing a budget.
Your total savings depends on several factors but generally you will save 30% plus. Builders usually charge between 10% - 20% on the total cost. Plus your builder is likely not going to be hunting for bargains every chance they get. For example, if you were to use stone counter-tops. If you took the time to call several stone manufacturers and asked if they have extras from a past job, you may just be able to find the right amount you need at deep discounts.
We have built a carefully designed Build Guide and management platform to help ensure your build will be a success. Just follow the step-by-step build guide, contact the contractors you need, and use the rest of their tools so you can build like the pros.
If it has to do with the software, our support team is on standby ready to help. Most things you should be able to figure out by following the Build Guide and working with the contractor at each step. However there are some variables that can come up and make you scratch you head. When these kids of issues arise they can easily be resolved by doing a couple of things:
1. Contact whoever created your construction drawings (Architect or Home Designer) and or Structural Engineer. Ask them to help you troubleshoot.
2. Contact a knowledgeable Builder and retain them to help you get through the complication.
Generally 16 - 24 months however the time it takes to build your own house can drastically vary depending on several factors, to name a few: Size of project, competency of contractors, complexity of project, complexity of property, location of property, environmental conditions, experience and many more. Some jurisdictions can take upwards of 12 months and beyond to obtain permits. Creating your construction drawings can also vary depending on some of the above mentioned factors.
The key factors we found to ensure your project speeds along at a rapid pace are as follows:
1. Ensure the jurisdiction is easy to deal with.
2. Budget your project so you know it's feasible. This will save you disastrous scenarios. Contact the contractors for every step and get a general idea based on your assumptions of the project.
3. Pick the right lot or property.
4. Ensure your construction drawings have enough detail that your contractors can follow them without question.
5. Pick your team prior to the build and always use a professional contract that outlines all details of the job.
6. Stay organized and proactive during the build. Having the right construction management tools will facilitate this; a. Checklist items, Accounting program, Contact management tools, etc.
Embarking on your own build or renovation can be a wonderful experience and very rewarding if you are organized and proactive.
