Paul you made a mistake here. You negkected to mention there is a severe timber shortage right now and it could tske 3 years before the home is complete. Take it from me whom had personal experience. Sell the home and buy another established one. Save yourself the headache especially as you have the financial ability and have a disability. Dont trust Builders as they are rogue cowboys!!

You are right.

Buy what you need if you can rather than go through the hassle of plans, planning, construction and potential rogue operators.
