Those who classify themselves as having "simple demands" are rather unlikely to be electrical (or electronic) connoisseurs at the same time.As a builder, you always have control over sampling – except for the electrical work.
It was a suggestion because Town & Country simply builds affordable houses – also with correspondingly simple, cost-effective equipment. However, it has the advantage that you don’t even get to see the high-end selection.
Basically, the removal of package services is always more expensive than their complete inclusion. Economy_but_move-in-ready providers like Town & Country are good for people whose demands are not only simple in terms of level or complexity but who are also highly willing to compromise and to let things slide when choosing samples. Removing Economy with standard from manufacturer A and replacing it with standard from manufacturer B is economically unwise. Also, only removing, as the original poster envisions, is not a clever approach. The better basis in such cases is clearly a shell / DIY house. Economy providers are then less suitable because, on the one hand, they have many "builder-provided" positions (which means you don’t have to explicitly "deselect" them), but on the other hand, they have no specialization in the product "empty shell for DIYers or individual contractors." A local mason usually offers the most attractive deal as a shell general contractor. But beware: especially for first-time builders, self-contracting usually backfires; tendering with the architect for a move-in ready build through their known, trusted contacts is a better and also cheaper way. You should seriously engage with the topic of in-house work and formally participate with your own offer for all affected contract packages in the tender!No. Especially not interesting for someone like you right now. You want to contribute a lot of in-house work. Such companies are precisely not suitable for that.
