We are thinking about using this downturn in the housing market to build
a new home, and acting as our own General Contractor. Has anyone in the
group done this and do they have any words of advice?
Yes, with three houses and two workshops. Not only was I General
Contractor, I was also 50% of the labor.
Your only real savings, in this market, will be sweat equity. You can
buy cheaper than you can build....

Atlanta is safer with Loogy continuing to wallow in his stupidity.
