Really worth getting a pre contract inspection with a highly qualified inspector, mistakes, oversites ,unfair builder friendly clauses will be picked up,good luck.

Gee that seems almost unrealistic ,280,000 for a custom build,there has to be some big surprises somewhere or lots left out and or doubtful quality ,ask plenty of questions and…

I'm not in the window business,just talking common sense,it's obvious your not in business,as such a shallow statement deserves debate.

Your reasons are misguided and just plain unfair,10 times the price,first you have a space to store and operate from,second you have a warranty and after service,and provide spare parts,you…
