i built my own home from scratch, it you have any questions pm me or if you want to know anything specifically i pm'ed you my number

heres a few things i recommend:

- quasi is a spot on about the contractors
- $150 square feet is about average for hiring someone else to do it for you
- "custom" is too expensive, what you want is a design thats already been done and you want it modified so it can be done on YOUR LOT. you can add things and move items around but you want a architect that will work with you
- start planning now, get permits done in jan, break ground march/april when is ALMOST spring, complete by september/october
