yes! love the way they presented the step by step with costs and times! great production!

[@kkaamils]

It is an absolute joy to see someone realising their dream home. May you guys live always happy ever after.

[@thefamily512]

But unfortunately they picked a bad state to do it in. Rising crime in the Detroit area, drug & human trafficking due to Michigan being near Canada and stay at home orders during pandemic. Terrible leadership in Michigan plus it gets cold and homes have high radon exposure. Imagine 5-10 years from now, God forbid, but with the rising crime and when virus comes back. #FloridaGang

[@forwardfollower2401]

That was fantastic! Thank you for sharing your build with us, it answers so many questions people may have about time frames, costs, the multitude of services required, to build a home. I hope this video blows up for your channel, the content, for me anyways, is priceless...

[@FarisandLisa]

Thank you so much for the kind words!! It was our goal to share the building process details so people could figure out if it’s for them!

[@mayankrana7324]

Nice deforestation homie

[@axldematt6747]

superb house, magnificent work of the builders, I hope you will be happy in it, I have a quick question, why do you use wood for your houses? I am French and in France we are more adept at reinforced concrete than wood, especially for load-bearing walls, so when France is much less subject to hurricanes or tornadoes, for example my house is made of reinforced concrete from the basement to the second floor

[@manwhocantbenoob5270]

Why are there no reinforcement for the underground retaining wall, footing, etc.

[@roddan2540]

No inspections or permits I imagine.

[@miannawilliams9387]

I had the same question.

[@crazyfrank3866]

She said there were steel beams

Did they use a concrete vibrator poker to condense and remove air bubbles when pouring for your basement walls? It didn't look like they did in the video.

Our minimum width for 2 story is 24”x 14” deep; 3-#4 rebar’s in the footings and 24” OC ties. But seems like your house is stamped and county/city approved so enjoy your house and fill it up with kids to raise your family. :)

[@ditherdather]

Most of the costs listed in this video didn't seem too excessive (given the current market conditions), however I was shocked that it cost that much to have the well drilled. I might have expected a couple thousand, but $11k raised my eyebrows. Beautiful home. Thanks for sharing!

[@FarisandLisa]

The well is 125ft deep which is deeper than your average, which brought that price up! Wish it was lower along with the rest of the house haha! Glad you enjoyed the video! 😊

Hi RJ, We used a key way to tie it in and horizontal rebar in the walls.

No soil compaction or isolation barriers between dirt and concrete. That’s insane. Best of luck

[@sassafrass1284]

I watched the video and thought-what beautiful weather! It can’t be Michigan 😂then I saw the snow! We do get nice weather sometimes I guess! We are building as well on the west side of the state near Grand Rapids. We are back filling today! Great job on the video!

[@FarisandLisa]

Awesome! Thank you. what stage are you guys in now?

[@rickytavitas4786]

were there any obstacles / difficulties building in cold weather ?

[@Kurdocummentary]

Thanks. Is the foundation cost including the basement walls ? And those cost with or without labor? I mean did all those guys contractors or yourself n family

[@ruler_of_all_stars]

They didn’t used any metal rod for concrete wall and floor. Its very inefficient and will collapse with a slight earthquake.

[@ditherdather]

I poured basement walls as a young man. Stripping those forms, pulling them up to the top of the wall, turning around and then dropping them back into the inside of the basement was no joke. Hardest labor I've ever done.

[@FarisandLisa]

We can’t even imagine, those forms looked so heavy and especially in the heat!

[@ditherdather]

@FarisandLisa They're aluminum, but the 9' wall panels are still 120 to 130 lbs or more. They nail in those wooden boxes to create cutouts, pockets, and stepdowns for beams and things. If they nail through a "hat section" of the panel, then it leaves a hole and concrete seeps through those holes into the panel during subsequent pours, making them even heavier. After pulling 30 or 40 of them you feel wiped out.

[@ditherdather]

@FarisandLisa And pulling one up over a wall on a windy day can be terrifying. They're veritable parachutes in the wind. Take you right off the wall.

[@VitalyPolovin]

Curious the concrete basement walls were not waterproofed before filling in the dirt, I wonder if that’s normally how it’s done.

[@FarisandLisa]

It is waterproofed. Note the Black foundation coating and the black dimpled plastic moisture barrier.

[@jaowjaow1733]

I swore I spent more than 1 million dollars, how good it is to see the rich live

[@tjtebbs9221]

No rebar in the walls or dowels from the footings into the walls, no vibration or consolidation. You need an inspector to see this.. thats huge. Did they backfill this? Time and pressure are going to show you what corners you cut. What did the inspector say? Or was he a guy the concrete crew brought in

[@IndianFactsofficial8]

I have one question is there's steel rebars on the column wall or not ??

QUESTION: why didnt they do the concrete basement walls all the way around? its like they left off a bunch

[@chrapladm]

Was a Geo-Engineer involved at all? I would be worried about compaction densities for the soil that was only pushed into place and only excavated not rolled or anything else.

[@luismvega]

and drainage around the basement :-)

[@FarisandLisa]

Yes a geo engineer was involved in all of our plans. We spent months during this process to ensure everything was done correctly!

[@esl4058]

I’m an electrician and they are totally fine at that distance as the magnetic waves won’t even come close to the house. Also, they will of course need to run power to the house. This will be accomplished on poles with a service drop or dug underground. Either way, you have to physically get wires to the house.
