re: General Contracting your Home Build

I build during all 12 months and prefer the summer. I got 4 customs going now in different stages and one of them is at a stand still due to the weather. Have to bring in a dozer tomorrow to do some grading, turn the dirt and lay down some rock in hopes it will allow me to get some big trucks to the wooded site for materials. Winter builds suck imo

I am in the very early stages of this right now. Met with our builder last night. The system he has set up allows us to be our own general contractor and we pay a monthly fee to him to oversee and handle all subs. All of his pricing is set up beforehand. We can use our own subs or we can use ones he has previous relationships with. We pay the subs directly and he does not get a cut. This also allows to be as active as we want to be in the building process.
