If you are planning to build a new home, you know you need to hire the right builder for the job. Choosing a reputable builder with an established track record is critical to getting the house of your dreams. The key is trust. There are many qualified builders who take home construction seriously. They are business people who know that they have to earn your trust and work to keep it. They understand that their unstinting commitment to your project is the only way that’s going to happen.
In addition, to asking for and checking references, appropriate licensing, and insurance, qualify your builder by asking if home building is his or her full-time business. Some new homebuilders work part time. While they may be perfectly honest, they may not have the commitment to quality construction, adhering to schedules and budget, or warranty capability that a full-time committed professional would have. Also question how long he or she has been in business, how many homes he or she has built, the length of time he or she has been in business.
Another important question to ask is if he or she is a member of a builders association and if so, which one. You can check to see if the builder is in good standing with his professional peers. Often the builder’s associations require members to adopt an ethical code as a condition of membership.

Mississippi's generally hilly landscape reaches its highest point (806 ft/246 m) in the northeastern corner of the state along the Tennessee River. The most distinctive region in the state's varied topography is the Mississippi Delta, a flat alluvial plain between the Mississippi and the Yazoo rivers in the western part of the state. A wide belt of longleaf yellow pine (the piney woods) covers most of southern Mississippi to within a few miles of the coastal-plain grasslands. Important there are lumbering and allied industries. Most of the state's rivers belong to either the Mississippi or the Alabama river systems, with the Pontoctoc Ridge the divide. The climate of Mississippi is subtropical in the southern part of the state and temperate in the northern part; the average annual rainfall is more than 50 in. (127 cm).
