want It so simple doesnt it And yet willing to bet that It never work out thai well once hi a ibonsan times People who build their houses find almost invariant that there are the have overlooked or didnt thin of until it was too late When you shop around for house thats already built stand a far better chance of fin I off a place that comes closest exactly what you want And then theres the probk of workmanship Unless a far better than ledge of homebattding ns er can tell whether your or might be cutting a few ers to Increase his profit on house But if yon buy a bouse tnaf is already built or buy a new on that Is guaranteed to have tfa same workmanship as a model home built by the same contract or you can see In advance esse what youll get for your And most Important of all haps to the question of cost wish I had a dollar for every vately built house that ever ex Its original estimate by 2 percent or more Give me and Ill pay you a thousand doll for every one that didnt ex Its
