Need ideas for cost cutting for building a house

I agree. Cost is pretty well directional proportional to square footage. IMHO you would be better off with a quality smaller house than one in which a larger one was built as cheaply as possible. Say you have a choice between grades 1, 2 and 3. Likely grade 1 isn't three times better than 3, but perhaps eight times better. If the cost isn't eight times more, than you are sacrificing quality for not going with grade 1.
