2 [Edition datE] Building on a budget Building your own home is one of the biggest investments of a lifetime and with a few clever tips we show you how to make the most of what you can afford. Get smart with your money to achieve your dream home without compromising on what’s really important. Consider buying a large plot of land with friends or family which you can split into smaller lots. Many great locations tend to cover more ground, so get the stunning harbour view you dream of by sharing the cost with someone you don’t mind having as a neighbour. Opting for lowmaintenance building materials, like vinyl siding and metal roofing saves in the long run. Although they may be more expensive to install you will save money on future repairs, replacement or repainting. Using salvaged and recycled materials and componentry from the abundance of demolition sites around the city not only adds valuable character to new builds, but can save money, too. For the safety and security of your home, don’t skimp on structural elements, doors and windows. Buy the very best you can afford and, together with your architect or builder, determine other areas you could save on to allow for a few luxuries. It’s important not to waste valuable cash on overbuilding. Look carefully at the existing properties in the area and be Deciding exactly what you want and then sticking with it will ensure you stay on budget, on time, and all with minimal stress. aware that building a home that is bigger and better than those of your neighbours will not necessarily equate to a fair price if and when it’s time to sell. instead, the value of your build will be determined by the lower-priced homes around it. The experience of a wellqualified contractor is an invaluable asset in any building project. Not only will you have recourse should anything go wrong, but their experience in the industry means they will have established relationships with suppliers and subcontractors, whom they trust to deliver the best workmanship possible. Keep a close eye on construction allowances as your home is being built to ensure you are getting what you asked for and what you paid for. if you had initially agreed on using a specific brand, for example, then don’t settle for less, unless you discuss a cost adjustment with your builder or contractor. Many a building project has snowballed out of control in the financial department due to changes being made to the design and materials once building is already underway. Deciding exactly what you want and then sticking with it will ensure you stay on budget, within your expected time frame, and all with minimal stress.
