Do you have someone in-person advising you who has building experience? Is the save (compared to using a volume builder) really in the 30% to 36%+ range? How did you learn all the things that have to be done and who exactly to hire and which insurances and permits to get?[/quote]If you are building a home that is similar in plan, size as the volume builders in my opinion you wont be able to do it cheaper then them. They get better buying power. Now if you have your own plans and you want extras (that most volume builders wont do) then its worth going down the path of owner builder.
