If you are worried about your finances getting out of control on your next custom home project, here are a few things that you can do.
- Estimate early and often. Having an idea of expenses in mind will help you get through the building price at a reasonably level. Every few days you should also recalculate your budget just to make sure that you’re staying on track to reach your financial goals.
- Choose quiet lots. If you’re working on a budget, the lot you pick can save you a few extra dollars. Picking a flat cleared lot, means that you don’t have to worry about hiring someone to clear land or dig anything up.
- Think about your space. Every house has that empty corner or empty room in it, that you just don’t know what to do with it when you first get it, so instead of leaving it empty, leave it out of the construction plans entirely. By downsizing your home plans you can often save money for both yourself and the home builders.
- Downgrade the small things. Carpet, faucet hinges, and even kitchen accessories can often be upgraded later and can save you hundreds of dollars during the construction process.
Remember a perfectly built home is possible if you are willing to sacrifice the little things.
