I went through several general contractors and then got so fed up I took over managing the subs myself, which turned out to be a headache also.

Don't get me wrong. If you want everything exactly to your personal tastes and spec, there's no better way. But just know, its so much easier and less stressful to just buy a finished house.
EXACTLY, I started building one and the fuckin bullshit just was sick, I think after car dealers contractors are the biggest liers and bullshitters
