what would you advise?

What would you do?
My parents are building a big house
and do not have money to finish building it as the prices of building materials have gone up.
My mum is working and my dad's job is to build the house.
Do you think that this situation is normal?

it is a bit of a shame they didnt have the forsight to have a few thousand extra in case of this, but having said that it does happen, can they not take up a loan or mortgage against the house they are building?

Can your dad not slow down the building and take up a part time job to pay for the extras needed?
