Home Sweet Home
Building new is enticing and exciting. The cost of new construction varies depending on your site, your taste in finishings, and labor availability. We advise that It’s always a good consideration to budget for a 20% contingency fee over and above the construction estimate. This will cover any upgrades you might want as you see the building unfold during the construction period.
New Build Adventures
Employing a qualified project manager is a good move due to his established working partnerships with subcontractors and suppliers like framers, plumbers, and electricians. His scope of work includes hiring, paying, and coordinating labor, ordering materials, managing workmanship quality, and keeping paperwork up to date.
Working hand-in-glove with an experienced project manager will alleviate any headaches along the construction journey. Communication is key to this relationship being successful.
