Not directly, but I can offer some advice after something a coworker just went through: make sure the realtor isn't married or related to the builder. Definitely not both. While you should also pay attention to what is going on, the realtor should be looking out for you, not the builder.

expect it to go over the expected time frame. the first hardest part is finding a contractor that has their ducks in rows. there's not many that don't shoot most of it from the hip. the second hardest part is making the blueprints and getting all the idea's you want into a scaled down blueprint-- many people struggle with blueprint scale. a lot get idea's from home shows, and attempt to work design details into rooms that aren't the same scale as the idea. and if you're doing a house with a basement, leave the basement ceiling as a drop ceiling. makes it so much easier/cheaper when you decide to change things on the main floor after realizing certain things don't work the way you want them to.

I'd suggest you look around till you find one that is already built that suits most your needs and desires. The important word there is most. humfrz |

At least half the people I've done a new houses for say the same thing. And then they're building an addition or remodeling half the house a few years later.
Being part of creating something from scratch and ordering people to make it is somewhat of an addiction. Sorta like tattooing- some might hate the process, but love the end result.
