Congrats.. You will probably get one of the "A" team builders. Since you have been on both sides of the desk building homes, you will be amazed at the "supply chain" of construction and the quality. We increased the size of our home about 40% and the garage about an equal amount. To preserve our marriage (tongue in cheek), I did NOT attend most sessions at the Design Center. This was second half 2019, pre COVID, so out shovel to close time was 3 months. Any other place on the planet that was a seven or eight month project. Top quality construction and finish work. We bought none of the standard appliances.. had the specs for wall ovens in the contract and openings and outlets were put in with appliances installed by others day after close. The spec sheet was as thick as a novel .. BUT .. ZERO CHANGE ORDERS ! and another shout out to Heather ..
