We built our own place, took four years instead of the two we had projected, this was due to up grading here and there holding out for what we really wanted, like hardwood floors and other custom things , so it threw everything off . In the end we are happy, my thoughts would be to spend your money on what you really want, and realize your dream home may take a lot longer then you had hope. Good luck~

We personally wouldn't be building it. Wish we knew how. I can't even get him to do the simple repairs. He just isn't into that. YET. hehe
I would love to, but in truth my health is not up to it at this time.
We would have to find a builder.
Then you get into finding a contractor or being the contractor.
