Build Contracts

Contracts are a way to ensure that the agreements between you and the builder hold. Both the parties have clarity on what is included or not. Agree on the payment terms, the work process, and other related details before the work starts so that there are no disputes at the later time .
 
Contracts should also contain what-if scenarios to make room for changes along the way . If the construction process delays due to environmental factors, both parties must also agree on the necessary actions . Work with builders ready to abide by contracts and follow up a smooth process as termed in the agreement.
 

Make An Inspection List
