[QUOTE="AdvantageR1, post: 1870365, member: 851"] Expect to go over budget. My friends are building a house right now. The wood work didnt look as good as planned so they had to change it and that is costing them a lot of money. Also plan on it lasting longer than planned. My friends were supposed to move in July 1. Now they are hoping that they move in before Christmas. It is crazy because they have been "in the dry" since some time in May. Custom homes cost more and take longer then spec homes. Def do your research on everything that you are interested in having put in your house. If you can pay cash for your appliances. Also if you are not super picky or if you can, try to by all of your hardware out of pocket while it is being built. You can hit up some of the habitat for humanity places and they are donated items, that they then sell to help fund their projects. Sometimes you can find really nice stuff there and it will help your bottom line. [/QUOTE]
