I was really surprised at how awful some of them were.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really only recommend two builders and for different reasons. It won't cost you extra to use me as a realtor either, by me giving you these recommendations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you reach the point that you think you want to build, I can help you write up the lot and arrange a meeting with either builder. Or if you already have a lot, we can still meet with the builder.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first builder I recommend is for custom builds. He is willing to do whatever, and he is a draftsman, so he can modify the plans that you have or do whatever you want. Prices vary depending on what you want to do, but he is affordable and does good quality work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can all eat lunch together while he explains what he can do. I like him because he is honest and is available by phone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My wife's family trusts him so much that they will lend him their private money on some of his projects.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He generally uses a bank in town that will help you get financing.  They know him and trust him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second builder I recommend has over 30 floor plans, and you can pick and choose what you want, and they can tell you down to the penny what it costs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are so many variables that you won't walk into the same home twice, even though they basically have 30 floor plans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They don't do custom work though,  meaning altering their floor plans, and so I would recommend my first builder if you want that. They will custom the interior though, and can tell you down to the penny how much upgrades, etc., cost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These guys are great and easy to work with. They can even get you financing, and we can walk through one of their model homes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of my clients who used them had his home appraise for $60,000 more than he paid for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He was very excited about that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So depending on what you want to do, I can recommend two builders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me know when you are ready, and we can schedule a working lunch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Burke Bennett&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.seidahohomes.com/"&gt;http://www.seidahohomes.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;208 589 5599&lt;br /&gt;burkebennett@hotmail.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object id="Player_8816d0c0-996b-49b8-a398-6706d4887487" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/swflash.cab" height="200" width="600" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"&gt;&lt;param name="_cx" value="15875"&gt;&lt;param name="_cy" value="5292"&gt;&lt;param name="FlashVars" value=""&gt;&lt;param name="Movie" value="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;amp;ID=V20070822%2FUS%2Fseidho-20%2F8010%2F8816d0c0-996b-49b8-a398-6706d4887487&amp;amp;Operation=GetDisplayTemplate"&gt;&lt;param name="Src" value="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;amp;ID=V20070822%2FUS%2Fseidho-20%2F8010%2F8816d0c0-996b-49b8-a398-6706d4887487&amp;amp;Operation=GetDisplayTemplate"&gt;&lt;param name="WMode" value="Window"&gt;&lt;param name="Play" value="-1"&gt;&lt;param name="Loop" value="-1"&gt;&lt;param name="Quality" value="High"&gt;&lt;param name="SAlign" value=""&gt;&lt;param name="Menu" value="-1"&gt;&lt;param name="Base" value=""&gt;&lt;param name="AllowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;param name="Scale" value="ShowAll"&gt;&lt;param name="DeviceFont" value="0"&gt;&lt;param name="EmbedMovie" value="0"&gt;&lt;param name="BGColor" value="FFFFFF"&gt;&lt;param name="SWRemote" value=""&gt;&lt;param name="MovieData" value=""&gt;&lt;param name="SeamlessTabbing" value="1"&gt;&lt;param name="Profile" value="0"&gt;&lt;param name="ProfileAddress" value=""&gt;&lt;param name="ProfilePort" value="0"&gt;&lt;param name="AllowNetworking" value="all"&gt;&lt;param name="AllowFullScreen" value="false"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;embed src="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ID=V20070822%2FUS%2Fseidho-20%2F8010%2F8816d0c0-996b-49b8-a398-6706d4887487&amp;Operation=GetDisplayTemplate" id="Player_8816d0c0-996b-49b8-a398-6706d4887487" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" name="Player_8816d0c0-996b-49b8-a398-6706d4887487" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" align="middle" height="200px" width="600px"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;&lt;/noscript&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5237562526698520581-5221358695528334550?l=burkesbuildahome.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://burkesbuildahome.blogspot.com/feeds/5221358695528334550/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5237562526698520581&amp;postID=5221358695528334550' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5237562526698520581/posts/default/5221358695528334550'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5237562526698520581/posts/default/5221358695528334550'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://burkesbuildahome.blogspot.com/2008/11/build-home.html' title='Build a Home'/><author><name>Burke Bennett</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08618136015484630795</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_tq1OTqDFMwk/SIKkPLLnmFI/AAAAAAAAAAM/TvHSPyTfj9Q/S220/agentpic.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tq1OTqDFMwk/SSA8MDJd60I/AAAAAAAAAn4/bPmO2Uzht0E/s72-c/build.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
