Taking Mike's thread at a bit of a tangent (Sorry Mike), I'm interested in advice on how to pick a secure builder. We would seem to be reaching the stage of "economic cycle" where builders go bust. I'm sure I spotted one report some days ago, leaving 100+ unfinished homes. I'd hate to be in that situation. And the past has shown that even reputable builders with good histories can get into trouble. Of course, the situation at the other end of the cycle when all is going crazy, is that you can hardly get a builder, nor afford them. I need to build sometime in the next 4,5,6 or 7 years, and am hoping I find myself in the safe part of the cycle - not really expensive, nor cheap, but when builders are secure and won't collapse on me in the middle of the job.
