The savings involved can make the difference between just dreaming about that dream house and actually building it. The primary message behind "Be Your Own House Contractor" is " You can do it!" According to construction expert and author Carl Heldmann, anyone can oversee the building of a house and save up to 25 percent by acting as the main contractor. This popular book has sold over 268,000 copies since it was first published in 1982. Written for those with little or no experience in the building trades, "Be Your Own House Contractor" clearly and simply lays out the steps involved in home construction and answers the many questions that arise.

Heldmann explains each step of the home building process in non-technical, easily understood language, helping readers avoid the pitfalls that plague general contractors, even experienced ones. Readers will learn how to develop house plans, establish schedules, select good subcontractors, identify cost-saving options, negotiate contracts, estimate building costs, purchase materials and supplies, and much more.
