Be Your Own General Contractor: Save 10-21% Guide (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781481963374)

One of the biggest reasons to act as your own general contractor is the money you can save by investing your time and energy, also known as 'Sweat Equity, ' into your home-building experience. Another consideration that you need to keep in mind is the mental and emotional involvement, also known as 'Intellectual Effort, ' in building your own home. Whether you are having your home built for you, or you decide to act as your own general contractor, you need to keep in mind that both avenues have some stress involved because this is your home that is being built. While you may have heard some horror stories from people who have undertaken such a project, you will also feel a great sense of satisfaction, pride and fulfillment when your home is complete. How can I make that claim you ask? Simple. I have 40+ years of building experience. The key to acting as your own general contractor with the least amount of stress possible is being aware of the steps and procedures. This will make the process more enjoyable and it will save you 10's of thousands of dollars.
