Thanks, Rich. I have been going back and forth over the concept of doing a blog on the house build. Just not sure I want the general public knowing where I live. I have lots to tell about the city, architects, inspectors, etc. Seriously, if anyone is looking to DIY a new house, I’m glad to help.
Unfortunately, contractors are pretty busy now and lumber skyrocketed in the last six months. I expect the next downturn will come as soon as I finish my house, after which builders will be begging for work.
