For the construction to be done at a lower cost without neglecting the quality, here are some tips that will be of great help to you.Is it really possible to build your house at the best cost?From the outset, let us specify that it is quite possible to have your house built at the best price, even if it will require a significant investment of time on your part.This article is not about building your own house, but about finding the company that will be able to best manage the construction budget that you will have defined together beforehand and giving you tips for reducing costs.Let's not forget that only a professional knows the standards and regulations that govern the design of homes.Calling on a construction professional will save you from incurring other expenses and cutting out the intermediaries in the event that the house you have built yourself needs adjustments.Most companies in the industry get discounts on material prices and can pass this on to you.However, we must not forget that the best building craftsmen and quality materials are a little more expensive.If the cost proposed for a construction is too low, this means that you have to ask questions about the quality and be particularly vigilant so as not to fall into the trap of wanting to cut prices too much.But it is logical that if your budget is limited, it will be necessary to make some concessions on multiple aspects of the site.The best way to get the best price for your future home will be to compare companies and compete on an equivalent basis in terms of benefits.Choosing the right professional who will take charge of the construction of the houseThe two types of professionals who can take charge of the construction of your house are individual home builders and project managers, including architects.You will have to think carefully about the selection of the company you want to use because there are many differences between these two professions.Be aware that builders offer their sponsors a contract for the construction of individual houses (CCMI) which clearly mentions a fixed and definitive price.This contract constrains the chosen home builder to deliver good results unlike the main contractors.Indeed, the quotes from the prime contractors are transparent, but the cost may change during construction.Nevertheless, the independence of the contractors vis-à-vis the building craftsmen can prove advantageous insofar as the construction of the villa is somewhat atypical or unusual.Everything will therefore be played out in the quotes offered, but note that manufacturers generally offer more advantageous prices.The control of the construction cost will pass by the perfect control of each element mentioned by the builder in the estimate.During the comparison phase, you will receive different quotes from various builders and professionals.It will then be necessary to compare each line and each aspect of the estimate so that the competition is effective and can bear fruit.When you have several quotes in your hands, it will then be easier for you to negotiate the rates and appreciate the honesty of the builders with whom you plan to collaborate.To avoid pitfalls, also check things like:• registration of the company with the RCS, but also membership of the Pôle Habitat FFB, the French Federation of Builders of Individual Houses (FFCMI) or the Maisons de Qualité association, for example,• the existence of a CCMI contract (Contrat de Construction de Maison Individuelle) or a project management contract,• the value of warranties and insurance,• the absence of travel costs or hidden costs that would weigh down the budget,• the existence of certifications such as the NF habitat commitment, etc.Think about relevant tips for savingAfter having retained several quotes in accordance with your budget, it will be a question of investigating the seniority, the qualifications and the reputation of the builders.Before proceeding to this step, you will first need to define your desires for your future home.You will have to think seriously about the different tips to reduce the cost of building your house.Here are some ways:• carefully choose the sector and the district,• buy land in a housing estate,• reduce the living space with a simple and compact construction,• build a two-storey house,• prefer an awning to a garage,• think about less expensive but still qualitative materials,• have it built according to a manufacturer's catalog,• benefit from the network of partners of a long-established builder and reduce intermediaries as with Villadirect for example,• see if there are financial aids to reduce the budget devoted to construction…Appreciate the seniority, skills and reputation of the builderFirst check if the builder has several years of experience.To get an idea of ​​a builder's skills, then ask to receive a portfolio of their recent achievements.If the builder is really honest, he will show you around the houses he has built or is currently building.Take the opportunity to ask questions to the owners.Otherwise, you can always check the reputation of the builder you want to use by reading reviews left by former sponsors on the Internet, insofar as it is present there.As fake customers may have left positive reviews of the builder, favor build stories that detail the build as well as feedback from the company.Appreciate the quality of the assistance offered by the manufacturerFor the house construction project to go smoothly, a future owner must be properly advised.If you decide to collaborate with a builder, you will only have one single point of contact for all stages of the construction project.As a true professional, the builder will offer you a wide choice of possibilities and it will be up to you to choose the construction that will meet your expectations.It is also customary for the builder to take charge of all the administrative tasks that are inherent to the site.This goes from the filing of the building permit, through the selection of subcontractors and craftsmen who will participate in the project, until the completion of the work.The builder will deliver a finished house to you, respecting the price that was set at the start of the collaboration.Enter your Nickname (your comment will be published under this name)Enter
