        "text": "Yes, changes to residential construction plans are possible after a project has started, but they typically involve a formal change order process. This means documenting the requested modification, assessing its impact on cost and schedule, and obtaining your approval. A practical tradeoff is that while changes can personalize your home further, making them later in the project can lead to increased costs and delays due to rework or material re-ordering, making early decision-making during the planning phase highly beneficial.",
