[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We built a custom home in DE 7 years ago using a design/build firm. It worked well and took about 4 months between ground breaking and handing over the keys. Our relatives, who built on an adjacent lot, acted as their own GC (they've done it many years before, so not total novice). They started around the same time as us, but did not finish until 3 years later. I have no idea if they saved much money after all, but the headaches were next level.[/quote] Fully custom in 4 months. Every detail fully open to possibilities and chosen by you. No tweaks from an existing floor plan? That time line surprises me. I have heard of semi-custom being that fast. I do think a lot of it depends on the jurisdiction. That just isn't possible in some of the close in burbs of DC.[/quote]
