RENOVATIONS Building your dream home
www.homemoverspack.info Avoid making expensive beginner’s errors when putting your ideal home together, and follow these five important steps to ensure that everything goes according to the plans 1 Plan your budget Start by thinking about how much you can afford to spend and how much building your new home is likely to cost. Chances are, you will need a construction loan and a mortgage. It’s not too early to find out what size loan you will qualify for. Also, knowing the approximate costs all help you modify your building plans to meet your budget. 2Pick a style Many new homes are built using stock plans from the catalogue. The builder or home designer might make minor modifications in room size, window style or other details. In most cases, custom-designed homes require the services of a licensed architect. Whether you opt for a stock or a custom design, you will meet your needs got many years to come. 3Consider the key features A fabulous home should not only look good, it’s job is to also serve the needs of those who live there. Although many products and interior feature ideas you may come across at home exhibitions are not more than gimmicks, others will really make your house stand head and shoulders above your neighbours! 4Hire the right trades people Select three contractors and ask them to give you a written, fixed-price quote. Also ask them for three references and follow them up, asking previous employers whether they were happy with the job they did. Do all this even if they come recommended. Finally, check their insurance cover by asking to see their builder’s liability insurance certificate. 5Negotiate a contract Be sure to get a written contract, which has been signed and dated by both the builder or contractor and the architect. or designer. A contract for new home construction will describe the project in detail and include a listing of all the parts to be included in the house. Remember to amend the contract if you or your team make any changes to the project later on.
