Hi folks,
New to the site and am already so grateful to have found this place! I wanted to ask a question about how you might approach a new build with a largely stock plan in a new planned community. The builder has been great so far but as I ask for changes and look over progress, i'm realizing I have no idea for small mistakes, choices the builder is making that could have been done more thoughfully, etc.
My assumption is that the developer and their sub contractors will be working as fast as possible and just staying within code to maximize crew efficiency and ultimately cost.
I was thinking about hiring someone to join me for walkthroughs and help answer questions I may have so i'm getting an independent opinion on the situation/code/possibilities/etc.
Would love to weigh in the thoughts of this community. Do I hire? What characteristics or experience should I be looking for, etc?
