Kieran McCarthy: New home build mistakes and how to avoid them

You need to know your budget. If it is something like you would build then you need to do some homework into what friends and family have paid for their new home (and when) and include all the fees and finishes

Kieran McCarthy: "As people started consulting with architects new houses (and significant extensions) became better designed and house plans became more space efficient. Gone were the wasted double height spaces and the box bedrooms in favour of well-considered designs and well-appointed spaces."

Hi Kieran,

What is the biggest mistake you see people making when building a new home?
