These testimonials from satisfied customers who have purchased the Home Building Guide speak for themselves.

We have not yet started the building of our home. We are starting to "pre-interview" builders. We are planning to break ground sometime next year. Thanks for the helpful information in the book, I'll be able to be much more knowledgeable about the process and potential issues.

I've been busy with work and such. The House Building Guide was a great purchase and a great eye-opener for me concerning contracts and pitfalls.
I was in a rush to look at things for home building, but it looks like I am going to take the patient road to building a home. So things have cooled down a bit.

Your product is great, and I liked having a house plan to look at. Great job!

Let me begin by saying that I am very pleased with my purchase. As this is our first home building experience, your product has given me a great deal of information which I would not have had otherwise, and I'm sure, that many possible headaches have been averted because of it.

Would I buy your product if I had it to do all over again? Most definitely. I hope my comments have been a help.

Thank you for your interest. To date, my project has not started except for the investigative work you advised. My time is very limited and my project will be out of state, so it's going snail paced, but with all the advice I got from your book, I'm on the right track. I feel it's well worth every penny. Thanks!

This book was well worth reading, well done.
Anyway, thanks to your book, we were able to ask all the right questions to the builder and were satisfied with the answers we got.
By the way, you were right on the money with builder mark ups and so on, but we expected it and only got the upgrades that would be too difficult or expensive to complete later on our own.
Well so much for dropping a short note and comments, but it is good to know that you care about your customers and the influence that your book had on them. I've attached a few pix, (pix are courtesy of the builder who knows we live too far to stop by to monitor the progress of our new home).


Kamer Marc Vartanyan , Davie, FL

p.s. We found building time line very useful and highly accurate. We're following it from the book, the builder sends us the pix, and progress is just where it should be.

....one of the best things that I liked were the sample Specification that you gave us to us to get agreed upon in writing. I also liked the sample contracts. These two things were worth the price of your product. I am a Civil Engineer.....

Your building guide is the BEST! In the past I have purchased a few books on "how to build or how to be your own GC" but nothing has compared to your product. I loved the fact I could download it and modify the Specifications to my own needs. It was EXACTLY what I was looking for. It tells me the process step by step and examples of building materials.

You package was very useful in understanding the big picture of building a house. The example contract and specs. were great! I will use these as a template when I have finished drawing our house plans (by hand) and get with my builder to start the paper work process of building our house. The Healthy home portion was helpful also.

Jim, overall this is a great manual. The only thing that has slowed me
down, is that I am building in Texas. ...  We don't build underground here.  (Very few basements) Besides that it's sound great for beginners.

Jeff Novosad, Texas

The guide is very good -- I especially was intrigued by the health guide, as I am a season allergy suffer (and dust & mold as well). The section about chemicals in building materials is very interesting. There is a local builder who swears by wood foundations -- allegedly they're supposed to be better, for moisture, than traditional concrete, however I have reservations about the arsenic that goes into treating the wood.

I enjoyed reading the House 'N Home Building Guide. I don't know if I will go ahead and build a house, but if I do, I'm sure the many tips in your book will help me get a better house for less money. I especially like to idea of taking responsibility for buying items like appliances myself. I did this last year when I remodeled my kitchen. It makes sense not to pay the builder extra when I want to select the appliances, light fixtures, kitchen cabinets, and even closet storage systems myself.

Just wanted to say that I found your site very interesting. I encountered
the same problems when it came to GC'ing my own home; however, I work for a
construction management company and got a LOT of fabulous FREE advice on
what to do and look for. Since I specialize in code enforcement and OSHA
regulations, I had access to a lot of information most people don't have a
clue about. I built my home 3 years ago for about $145K, its current
valuation being about $190. I walked in with a LOT of equity.

Anyway, just wanted to say you have a GREAT site that obviously needs to be
featured a great deal more. I will pass along to friends and colleagues to
get your site name out there. Sounds like you have some great information!

I am impressed with your House Building Guide and all the things you have managed to think of when writing it. I think that a major problem with most people either building their own homes or acting as their own general contractor is that they don't think of all the little things that need to be considered before getting started. This takes the guesswork out of the process, and thus makes the whole effort somewhat less intimidating.

I have always wanted to build my own home. The interest and basic knowledge has always been there. The courage has been lacking to really attack such a project.

Using your Home Building Guide has given me that courage. No it has not given me an attitude that I know it all, but it has given me the ability to formulate a plan. We will start in mid May to build our retirement home, having a move in date of October 31st. I will be using a builder who will be looking over my shoulder as a mentor. I will be my own general contractor for the construction of our home. Following your Home Building Guide and the advice of the builder I feel I have a very good chance to save on the construction of the home.
