Starter Home Plans
A first home or starter house is a residential property that is relatively small and inexpensive and bought or built as a first home. Most "starter" homeowners envision eventually upgrading to a larger house in a more desirable neighborhood or school district once they have built equity or otherwise advanced their financial situation. Another way to go is to look for a plan that's easy to expand so you don't need to move if your needs grow. Starter plans can also work as vacation house plans or second homes.

The Brand New House Book, by Katherine Salant (Crown Publishing) is an excellent introduction to the process of building a house. One particularly useful feature is her timeline from idea to completion. More advice is available on her website: www.katherinesalant.com.
