First you need to plan. This involves Contractor, owner,trades, engineers & architects and financing. Design, materials, schedule and costs & contracts are reviewed. Some of this information is submitted to local / state agencies for permitting & zoning and clerk of the court. After receiving "on site" plans you may proceed to a pre-construction meeting to review selections made during planning. You'll review your schedule, notify your trades and start site work to prepare for the foundation. Underground electrical & Plumbing are placed, re-enforcement materials & vapor barrier are set. You'll be ready to pour your foundation. (From this point on I'll simplify the process). Walls , interior load bearing walls and trusses are placed. Exterior decking (walls & roof) are installed with waterproofing to follow. Windows and exterior finishes (roofing & siding) completed with interior walls and HVAC, electrician, & plumber to complete installs. You may have other specialty installs depending on your wants for the home. Drywall can be placed and finishing will complete. Interior trim & painting will complete the major portions of work. A final grading, garage door(s), driveway & sidewalks, irrigation / landscaping will finish the exterior. Flooring, cabinets and HVAC /electrical & plumbing trims will finish the interior. There's a good deal of the minutia omitted (sorry you'll need to hire licensed contractors and my goal is not to give everyone the idea they can build a home from my post (liability reasons). There's a great deal of inspections with the local / state authorities and review them your contractor. Also the meetings/walks you'd like to have are Pre-construction, Frame (or pre-drywall) and final.
