Checklist

1. Visit at least one running site and one completed house by the builder.
2. Get an itemised quote with material grades and brands written in.
3. Check that the builder knows the society's bylaws and approval process.
4. Agree a written timeline and stage-wise payment plan.
5. Make sure there is a named site engineer or supervisor.
6. Ask how updates will be reported, especially if you live abroad.

Warning signs

• A rate far below the market with no item list.
• A large advance before any work.
