[quote=Anonymous]We built a very custom home 10 years ago - our own architect who we also paid to oversee construction. From start to finish it can take two years and if you are not incredibly organized and detail oriented it can drive you nuts. Fortunately, I'm both of those but it still was an enormous amount of work. My husband really stayed out of it except for the overall design and budget (went at least 15% over) and if he had felt he needed to be involved in every decision things could have gotten ugly. We were building our winter retirement home and I knew we'd have it forever so I wanted it just right. I'd never go through the process for a place I might only live in for 5-10 years. [/quote]
