Hi gogo65
Yes it is stressful but the thought of how the finished house will look & furnishing it with our ideas is exciting. But now the planning stage is overwhelming. Moving from a house you have lived in for 10 years is not easy. Can’t imagine how I am going to pack everything, Just got a new job last month so can’t take any leave.
And yes that question was directed at you.
Lucky you can choose what you want in appliances, flooring etc. With volume builders that is a big disadvantage. Their upgrades are pricey & after handover I guess it would take another couple of months to finish off what you haven’t taken from them. So the big dilemma here is to pay them more & get a complete house or try to save money & put in hard work afterwards. But I am sure we will get there. This forum is good for discussions & ideas
