Yes, designed and was owner builder GC, could not find crews so hired two helpers and 50 truckloads of concrete (ICF build) and many years later almost done. One thing as GC the buck stops with you, you need to understand how it should be done not rely on trades. Hopefully your building inspectors are able and willing to help you understand the latest building codes.
The largest waste of time for me was trying to find and book trades, I gave up and did interior framing, electrical, plumbing, ducting and drywall myself, the two helpers were gone at this point, fortunately I was able to do so. Depending on your area, most of the trades are already working for GC's or builders and likely busy if they are any good, you will be a low priority or will be paying overtime rates.
Don't forget the construction insurance.
