As often as necessary. I have met face to face with my builder on average once a week, although I haven't seen him in about 10 days now, but we close later this week. In the beginning I would see him almost everyday because he was actually onsite working as hard as his crew. We have his contact numbers and talk to him a couple of times a week. I see the project manager onsite about 2-3 times a week, or more. She also provided us with a schedule of construction, probably so we could stop bugging them with questions.

I go to the house twice a day to look at progress, even if there isn't any apparent progress, I look around, inside and out.

That probably seems a bit anal, but I really love this whole home build process, and have always loved watching homes being built. It is just much more special since it is our home.
