Lots of questions coming in from 2 of our 3 perspective builders😀! As exciting and fun as this journey is...it is still kind of hard making some of the decisions "on paper" just for the sake of making the bids more accurate. Ultimately, of course, the goal is to make the bid as accurate as possible and then to stick to these rather tough choices that were made "on paper" so we stay within the budget! Hmmmmm.... yes that is the goal!! So we decide, for example, where we want wood, tile and carpeted floors by looking at a set of plans....what kind (and grade) of windows and doors by looking at pictures on the Internet or line drawings on a bid sheet sent via email, designing a kitchen.....but iif we choose a different builder...not getting that exact design etc etc.
Our architect took a lot of decisions out of our hands .....by listening to our ideas and putting them on paper and placing things ...even light switches... where he thought they would work best... I am a very visual person, hopefully deciding things on paper before we actually set foot in the framed house......doesn't prove that we made a wrong choice... Well not necessarily wrong, but one that will adversely affect THE BUDGET!!
Maybe we'll just let Crush and Noel pick things out👍
They seem to like the set of prints whenever we have them out!!
