Demo / Rebuild House Plans
Looking to do my first demo / new build onsite. Wondering if most people work with a local architect to design a house plan, or order from the many online home plan retailers? The online route seems to be way more economically friendly.
Thoughts and input?
Thanks!

Talk to your builder... if you want to keep it economical, and you're using a builder who has been active in the area (hopefully you are), then they will have a few plans and/or architects that they have already been working with. You can take one of their more common "builds" and make a few little changes here and there (move interior doors, non load bearing walls, the simple stuff) so that its not a total cookie cutter. And your builder along with all of his subs will already have the pricing down. Less guess work = less built in oops factor. Good luck!
