After Jim dismissed the old-fashioned “manual” way of creating a budget…
by writing figures on forms…
I went on the hunt for something similar, yet different, online.
Based on Jim’s request, I was looking for a way to create and track expenses, estimates, quotes, and bids for new home construction — preferably, in an Excel spreadsheet.
Turns out, OwnerBuilder.com had exactly what we were looking for!
Download their FREE Excel spreadsheet called Budget Estimate for Home Building.
To make things easier for our own use, I ended up modifying their form a little bit. It’s
here.
