How Our Free Classes Support Owner-Builders

Why Education Is Essential for Owner-Builders

Building your own home as an owner-builder is an exciting journey, but success requires careful planning, knowledge, and organization. Unlike hiring a traditional home builder, an owner-builder manages the entire construction process, from selecting materials to overseeing subcontractors.

At Built Green Custom Homes (BGCH), we understand the challenges of managing your own build. That’s precisely why we’re committed to providing free owner-builder classes—to help you feel informed, organized, and confident every step of the way.
