How To Save Money with Construction
The basic rule of thumb is to splurge on the more permanent parts of the home that are difficult to change. That includes the structural parts of the house, such as the foundation, the framing and even the windows.
And according to the latest cost to build survey from the National Association of Home Builders, the average home costs just under $300k to build. So using those numbers, you could save about $150k by taking on all the labor to build your new home.
You’ve no doubt turned over a lot of stones to find ways to increase your bottom line, or at least avoid dipping into the red. But it’s possible to look so hard for new savings ideas that you overlook some surprisingly simple actions that you can take to save money in a way that won’t force you to compromise on project quality.
