Tips for Staying on Budget When Building a Home

Have a Detailed Plan

Building often kicks off before you finalize many decisions about design or interior finishes. Have a clear plan that includes blueprints, a work schedule and all materials. If you don’t, you’ll find yourself making adjustments on the fly that could easily derail your budget.

Establish Non-Negotiables
A key factor in arriving at a plan you can stick to is establishing priorities. This is from style and function to finishing materials. That way you and your builder know what aspects of the build you could skimp on if necessary to allow for a splurge in non-negotiable categories .
 
You may want a finished basement at some point in the future. For example, but are willing to leave it unfinished to invest in better energy efficiency .
Work with the Right Professionals

From your architect to your plumber. Hire professionals who respect your vision. Also, prioritize your non-negotiables and work within your budget. Never be afraid to ask questions if something is unclear.

When everyone is on the same page from the outset, you can avoid costly miscommunications and changes down the road. Builder and residential general contractor Tim Bakke says, “Work with a reputable builder with a solid track record on completing homes of similar design and budget. Successful project management is essential for staying on budget when building a house.”
