Doctor Mom Building My Own House: Full Tour

[@theadhdmedic]

Hi Evey, love your content. That is insane that you both have taken that on 😮 I built a small conservatory for my parents by myself which took several months (regrets - had to give up so many locums - could’ve hired somebody to do it for a lot less, though it was lots of fun!) I feel if you contracted out some of the odd jobs, like the bricky work, a labourer, etc. you’ll find it more cost effective! Time = money here (I’m sure you’re paying essentially two mortgages/ mortgage + rent monthly) Also please be careful with the walls - before the steel lintels go in, job sites should be properly surveyed so you don’t risk anything falling on you both! Really impressive work! Will you be uploading a part 2 soon, has given me some inspiration to think bigger :)

EDIT: Please ignore my above message 😂 I just realised your husband is a site manager and knows way more than me lmao. Excited to see how it all finally looks and your thoughts on building your own home (is it as glamorous as insta makes it out?)

Hii! That’s awesome that you built your parent’s conservatory! The house honestly has been so much work! And it’s taken longer than we thought it would. Definitely very fun and fulfilling though to do it yourself. Thankfully we’re past the wall propping stage, at the moment we’re working on the internal stuff - flooring, bathrooms, lighting etc. We did get someone to do our bricks/blocks and someone to do our roof. But otherwise have done everything ourselves (well Bret has). We’ve been posting about our progress on Instagram, but definitely will be doing a part 2 soon! (: (tricky to fit it in with work and a baby 🙈)

Aw thank you so much!

[@guitarsingaporeRapture]

Fascinating. How much did the professional builders quote you to build the house? You mentioned you got some quote(s).

[@eveyclay]

If I remember correctly, we were quoted £97,000 just to get it watertight (block walls up, roof on but not even the windows and doors) and also not including any internals (plastering, internal walls, doors, electricals etc). So expensive!

Singapore Government does not allow dual nationality- she would have to give up her Singapore Citizenship if she becomes a British Citizen- I trained as an immigration lawyer
