After you have chosen a log home company, you have to decide how much sweat you are willing to invest into your dream home. Have you asked around about the labor rates in your area? If you are willing to do the building yourself, the more you'll be able to save in labor fees. There are log home companies that offers a price for a completely built/ready to move in home or just a log home package price. Now, if you don't plan to save money by being your own general contractor, you have to ask your log home company for a list of contractors in your area and have to develop a cost estimating worksheet with the cost breakdown. Not hiring a contractor can save you about 10-20% off the cost of your building project. But you also need to consider the headaches that go along with that position.
