We have decided to build a house.... are we crazy

Over the years we have bought property, renovated and sold. Have we had problems? Have we had arguments? You bettya

So now it is time to create our forever home, something that is ours... not a home that someone else built and we want to change.
We are in the process of buying a house that we want to knock down in the Hornsby Shire. Our offer has been accepted, now we are waiting on the bank to give final approval of loans etc.
I must admit I have been lurking on this forum for a while now and I love all the information that is shared by everyone (the good & the bad).
Finding a builder is next on our list. Deciding between a private builder or a project home builder

We have been out to Homeworld quite a few times and each time we go we change which house we prefer the best - so many to choose from... We have a pretty good idea of what we want so perhaps we should draw up our own plans. We don't want a big mansion just a nice comfortable well built home...
I know from the forum that some project home builders offer free quotes/tenders - who do you recommend we contact?
Looking forward to sharing our journey with you and as we get further into our experience of building, sharing what we have learnt with you.
Thanks in advance for all you help...
