New home construction in Oregon

[Say Teoh]

Hi there, anyone in Portland Metro area (Oregon) has experience with buying a lot and building a SFH for resale? I would like to speak with you on your experience, cost calculations etc.

I do see some spec homes available on a few custom home websites, based on the cost they quote, might be profitable to build a new home in the right area. Or going the hiring an architect and GC is the way to go?

Thanks
