Check These Pointers On Building Program
Thinking about building a home?
Then check these five steps toward
hyme ownership. You'll find them
helpful:
1. Select .Your Site
It's wise to decide first of all
where you're going to live — the
community and the site itself. The
site will influence many decisions
about the house—even its dimen-
sions and room layout. You may
want a plan that takes advantage
of a particular view, exposure,
slope, or the location of trees.
a) Zoned for residential build-
in•g only?
(ib) S c h o o l s, transportation,
shopping center, church
locations meet family needs?
(e) Check availability of gas,
. 'water, electricity, .sanitary
sewer
(d) A.11 special assessments and
taxes paid?
(e) Have title search and .urvey
made
(f) Investigate local 'building
.i gulartions
2. Decide On A Plan
Now is the time to visit your
0
0
building products dealer. If yours
is to be a custommbuilt house, he
can refer you to an architect who
specializes in home design. Cfr
your dealer can show you a wide
selection of,ome plans within the
`style, size and cost range you have
in mind. He will show you, too,
the many types of building mabet-
ials and equipment available—the
various windows, doors, cabinets,
hardware, flooring, wall and roof
materials.
(a) Plan meets size and cost
requirements?
(b) Is house design well suited
to site?
(c) 'Examine samples of build-
ing materials
(d) Select equipment

3. Secure An Estimate
.Chances are you've -had only
"approximate" estimates up to this
point. 'Whether or not you have
secured your plan through your
building products dealer, it's a
good idea" to take it to him. and
discuss materials and equipment.
Your building contractor must
know your ,preferences on these
points in order to figure accurate
construction costs.
(a) Any changes to be made in
plans? Make them now be-
cause it's costly to make
changes when your house is
under construction
(b) This is the time to estimate
additional costs, too, such as
architect's fee (if any), fill
for lawn, shrubbery and
grass seed, storm windows
(if any), etc.
4. Arrange For Financing
CMIC insured and other home
mortgage loans, may ,be made
through banks, loan associations,
life insurance and mortgage com-
panies. The maximum amount of
the loan depends on appraised
value of houg'e and lot, and on
government regulations.
(a) 'Doffs your mortgage plan
permit you to make princip-
al payments in advance of
schedule?
(b) Have you considered a life
insurance plan that pays off
the mortgage in case of
death?
(c) Does mortgage plan allow
❑
0
❑
you to borrow additional
money for property im-
provements (such as room
addition) without costly re-
financing?
5. Building The Home
After the financing is arranged,
you are ready to begin construc-
tion. Under the direction of a
reliable contractor, progress will
be smooth and rapid. .His skill in
planning each' day's work; his sharp
eye for details and his knowledge
of materials and application come
from long experience. He'll save
you worry, expense, and... mistakes.
(a) Before excavating is started,
-instruct your contractor to
remove top soil that is Iikely
to be covered over in final
grading, and pile it to one
side of the lot, to -he spread
later over filled area
(1b) Check with your contractor
frequently to see that con-
struction is +progressing ac-
cording to schedule. And
remember, changes at this
point increase cost and may
delay completion of your
home
