Ground-Up Build Site Checklist for Houston Owners

You do not need every answer before asking about a new build. Start with an organized site packet: the survey, available drawings, utility records and notes about access or drainage. For a Houston-area property, identify the applicable jurisdiction too. This checklist helps show the team what exists and which information still needs qualified review.
New Build Responsibilities: Owner, Designer, and Trades

A new build involves decisions that can fall between the owner, designer, engineer, contractor and trades. A simple responsibility map names who supplies information, checks selections and approves changes. Use it before work is treated as ready to price or build. Mark unassigned roles clearly instead of assuming another participant will cover them.
