Is a fixed lump sum, truly ever a fixed lump sum?

Yes and no... If the documentation is 100% accurate, and there are no errors or charges to the builds, and there are no unforeseen circumstances then yes.

But in the real world, this type of build simply does not exist. So you need the contract to spell out the rules of engage and a QS to oversee them to ensure that you are paying fair value for your project.

What type of contract should my builder and I agree on?

Most builder's prefer a charge up contractor, aka a pay as you go contract. The problem with charge up contracts, is that you are essentially agreeing to an open ended contract with no set price or end date.

This places all the risk and the cost associated with those risks onto the homeowner. And it can remove all incentive for the builder to finish on time and on budget.

Here at Emmitt's, we can help put in place a fairer and less risky contract for all parties involved.

Building homes can be a complicated process. This can be further complicated when your builder is your 'best friend'.

When you bring in a Builder onto your project, it's not just them working on your build. They will need to engage a number of subcontractors and suppliers. This is where relationships can get messy.

A QS can make sure that all the financial aspects of your build are being taken care of and that your financial security is the priority. Leaving more time for you and your 'best friend' to enjoy bringing your dream into reality.

When's the best time to put together a budget?

As early as possible. This will help prevent early surprises in the design stage of your build. And ensure that you can plan for any potential variations and save costs in the long run.

Getting a Quantity Surveyor early on will help you determine if your build is feasible or not.
