Don’t be fooled… when building you can customize things, pick whatever colors, finishes, fixtures but you will pay significant price with your mental health and your wallet. At first it’s fun picking out flooring… but three months later…. After 1000 decisions…picking out door knobs, cabinet pulls, light fixtures will be truly painful and you will second guess all your decisions. Also note, unless you go with a top tier General contractor, you can expect multiple delays and cost increases… check your GCs references and expect the build to take about 2 years. I’ve got personal experience having built my home in 2019…it was the most stressful and unpleasant experience I have survived to date.
People visit and say “You’ve got a beautiful home”. And I say thank you but secretly hate it because the build was so traumatizing.
