This is Episode #199. In this episode, I’m continuing on with information about what to consider if you’re planning on supplying your own fixtures, finishes and fittings when constructing your renovation or new build, and excluding them from your contract with your builder.
This is Part 2 of this topic. So if you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, it’ll make a lot more sense if you go back to Episode 198 and listen to it first (https://undercoverarchitect.com/198). 
Then you can come back, and listen to this episode - it will be waiting here for you.

In the last episode, I went through the first two of the five main reasons I hear both homeowners and builders use to explain why it’s a good idea to source and supply your own fixtures, fittings and finishes in your project.
These reasons I described are:

Being able to get exactly what you want in your home, because you choose and buy it from the places and people you want to.
Not having to pay for the builder to shop for you, and generally avoiding paying the builder’s margin.

And in this episode, I’ll be taking you through the remaining three main reasons I hear discussed by both homeowners and builders. They are:

Knowing that the items you want are in stock and available.
Being able to start on site sooner rather than later.
Purchase things on sale or discontinued / end-of-line items and save serious money.

In this episode, I also want to spend a little time highlighting specific areas of your contract to be aware of, especially during times when (as it is at the time of recording this episode), we’re experiencing time and cost pressures in home building and renovating projects.
