DIY Home Building Guide: Step-by-Step Instructions for Subcontracting & Constructing Your Dream House | Perfect for First-Time Builders & Home Renovation Projects

I bought this book several years ago before building our home. The instructions and schedules were easy to reproduce and follow. I re-typed some of the documents for use with the subs rather than usings the fill-in-the-blank versions provided, but left the wording the same. I also purchased some additional contracts through another site for an addition of less than $10 and began. We didn't complete the work per the original schedule, but came in within budget and were able to afford many extras by doing some work ourselves and savings from also serving as the general contractor for the remaining work.I later loaned the book to a friend who was building and spent an evening gong over the do's and don't as well as lessions learned. They are now in their new home and I have yet to see the old book.Since we plan to build a retirement home in the next 5 to 10 years, I bought another copy for use at that time. The friendship was more valuable than any book and the other couple has adult children who will surely benefit from the book as well.
