Buying Vs Building Your Own Home: Jess Ricci Shares Her Learnings

Manifesting home-ownership, but priced out of buying a house? Maybe building your own is the way to go. But where do you even begin?

She’s on the Money’s Jessica Ricci joins Bec Syed on the Deep Dive couch to tell us everything she’s learned (so far) about her building journey.

After recently going through the preconstruction phase, Jess shares updates around pre-build appointments, budget considerations and just how important it is to read your contracts. We’ll hear about the loan application process, fixed-price building costs, as well as what is (and isn’t) included along the way.

If you’ve ever wondered about the benefits of building versus buying, why it pays to have a broker, or simply want to know what you should know before you start, this episode is for you.
