Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes of building the place you call home? Uncover the intricacies of home construction with Mr. Israel Sanders, a seasoned general contractor with 24 years under his belt. As the owner of IS Custom Homes, Israel navigates us through the highs and lows of the industry, revealing the real impact of the pandemic on costs and market fluctuations. He also pays tribute to his father's influence, sharing how family legacy has shaped his approach to creating dream homes amidst today’s unpredictable landscape.
Tackling a home build seems daunting, but Israel Sanders shares why it's a task for experienced hands, especially with today's labor market challenges. The loyalty and trustworthiness of subcontractors have become more valuable than ever, and Israel discusses how government assistance programs have reshaped the workforce.

Finally, we unwrap the various contracting methods that could make or break your home-building dreams. From the comprehensive turnkey process to the transparent cost-plus contracts, Israel illuminates the financial nuances of each approach. He offers sage advice on how to keep a tight rein on your budget, manage change orders effectively, and why communication with your contractor is the cornerstone of a successful project.
