Why
Selfbuild?
I will try to answer these questions. To start with by self building you will generally save between 20%-30% of the house price (even up to 50%). The selfbuilt house (if managed and designed correctly) will also be of a higher specification and built with higher quality materials. The mass house building companies are there to make a profit and I have heard numerous stories of "shoddy" workmanship because of tight bonus and work rates.
Go and visit some of the "quality" show houses in your area and take a close inspection of them. OK they look nice, because they are designer decorated and furnished, but the house that you purchase normally will have painted walls and no furniture. The things I normally look at (my wife goes mad) is under the carpets, is it a solid boarded floor or is it chipboard. Other things that I always spot are the amount of electrical sockets in the house, are there TV and aerial sockets to each bedroom and every major room. Is there a burglar alarm installed?
A Self Builders Story of the Day to Day Progress of the House Build

house.
