Check the laws in your state about being your own contractor. My contractor had a sub pour the concrete, sub put in the plumbing and electrical and cooling/heating, he erected the steel, insulated, put on the siding/roof, sub put up sheet rock, I subbed the kitchen out to a local carpenter who made my cabinets from local wood, all wood no particle board, and Home Depot provided the manmade granite countertops. I was the sub who painted and put in the flooring (saved tons of money there!!!). I could do the samething today with a larger (3,625 sqft) home (I have the four bedroom plan at home) for just over $160,000 in my area.
