We are at the begining stages of learning about dealing with builders. Traditionally, I cannot stand anything referring to "Dummies" as I feel it not positive, but this book is filled with great information and I highly recommend it.CR We reviewed many books on this subject.
Alot of information packed into this one. Read this before you do. Very practical, detailed, useful information. Recommend for anyone buying land or a lot, and building a custom home.
Very complete and logical in total scope of the custom home building process. wrgBuilding Your Own Home For Dummies Eye opener to a number of potential pitfalls in the custom home building process.
It is not that creative about any of processes. That Rocket Science for Dummies was totally awesome. I am always a fan of anything that puts the complexities of the world back into your hands. LOL.This is one of many that better be on your shelf as a beginnig research tool, if you are planning on building a home. It is very straight to the point.I do own it and it is a great reference that I had to MAKE myself read. It tends to be repetitious about needing massive amounts of money though.
It's more useful as a reference. However, this book is NOT about that. I bought this book hoping to understand each step that goes into building a home. This book has exhaustive information about building a home employing a general constructor and sub-contractors. I say that because of the way it's organized. It's more about effectively dealing with things that come along in each step. It's not a sequential read, and has no logical beginning or ending.
