Hello,
I am new here and ask for your understanding if my question seems basic. I have already tried to find an answer in your previous posts but was not successful.
Now to my question:
Apparently, there are prefab house companies that offer the selection of finishes BEFORE signing the purchase contract. Does anyone here know of such a company? This would be a good reason for me to choose that prefab house company, as it would help me better estimate the costs for the new house.
Thanks in advance for your time and best regards, Pinkiponk

Basically, I trust that other people do a good job, but I hear so many negative things about the construction industry and have also had bad experiences myself, which makes it hard.
Thank you for your many responses and thought-provoking suggestions.

hampshire11 Nov 2019 11:57There are several indicators that make it easier to build trust:
1. Listen to your gut feeling. If it’s not positive, you haven’t found the right construction partner yet.
2. Focus on how interested your contact person is in finding out what you want. You can tell by whether they go beyond simply working through their own checklist and ask follow-up questions. Is this a person who just takes in answers, or do they use them immediately to make a proposal or present counterarguments? Trust only those who also show interest in your concerns. It’s clear they will have their own interests, of course.
3. How much joy and enthusiasm does the person seem to have for their job and the subject? (For good reason, “lack of enthusiasm from the seller” is the most common reason, according to a well-conducted study and survey, why managers rejected an offer.) Those who enjoy their work generally do it fairly and well.
4. Give your contact a “non-standard” task right at the start. Nothing too complicated. Observe how well and reliably they complete it.
