I've decided to build a house (not using contractor) and don't know where to start. My dad's giving me a site to build. These are the things I need to put in correct order?
* Get mortgage approval from bank
* Apply for outline planning permission
* Consult with architect to draw up house plans
* Apply for full planning permission
* Proceed with organising builders, etc.
Is it worth/necessary to consult with an architect before any planning permission application?
As I plan to build without contractors, I'll be paying builders, plumbers as I go along. Any idea what type of mortgage or arrangement is most suitable?
