Clarity checklist · New build
Custom Home Build Master
This is the whole build, from budget and lot to keys and warranty, sequenced by construction phase. Each phase opens with the decisions that must be locked before it starts and the inspection that closes it. Selections are placed at the last stage where they can still be changed cheaply, not grouped by room.
