Great video! To add when building a house, also make sure you get: -pre-wire all rooms you want for ceiling fans. -get extra outlets in the garage. There’s never enough otherwise. -get built-in garage fan ventilation. -get insulated garage roll-up doors. -get at least two 220v outlet(s) @ 50-60 amps in the garage (air compressor, welder, etc…). -get 110v outlet @ 50 amps on side of the house, for an RV. -get outdoor 110v @ 20 amp outlets in front and rear porch areas. -get outdoor 110v @ 20 amp outlets, one on at least each side of the house. -get ceiling fans for covered back porch. -get outdoor heaters for back porch. -get generator transfer switch for back up generator. -get outlets under the eaves and/or on ceiling of porch areas for external Christmas lights, and/or security cameras. -get pre-wired for driveway entry gate and lighting. -get a home house fan (Quiet Cool) if living in hot area of the country. -get a larger than normal laundry room, preferably with a sink and large table to fold clothes. -get pre wired for elegant lighting in outdoor planter boxes. -make one room a “panic room” with secured door. -have security company install cameras throughout, while house is being built. -if running septic, get at bare minimum a 1500 gallon tank! -if you have natural gas in your area or run propane gas for the house, have an outdoor BBQ line pre-plumbed for the back yard.

When I first started out building a vacation home I was trying to do some of the work myself (free labor). On my 2nd vacation home I got bids from 3 different contractor for each phase of the build, walls, roofs, driveway, windows, insulation etc. I after getting 3 bids I found out that I got pricing that was cheaper than what it cost me just for the materials and the contractors cost included labor and materials. Boy I sure sent some long days making my own baseboards, installing drywall etc. Next time I will sit back with a beer and watch everyone else work.

Wayne, when it comes to paint, these builders rarely prime the walls. I noticed they just use the paint an primer together to cut corners. If your buying a new home make sure they prime the walls and ceiling first to seal the sheetrock then paint. That step will save you a bunch of headaches going into the future.

We built in 2018 and we found here in MN with our builder that adding anything as an upgrade cost more than doing it ourselves or hiring out the work. Although, when it comes to trim, under cabinet lighting, porches, etc. it makes sense to have the builder do it during construction, like Wayne said. We did our driveway ourselves (my husband retired from concrete work) for a fraction of the cost the builder wanted and I would think a fence could also be done much cheaper than a builder's charge. I also do not agree with Wayne about adding all this stuff to your mortgage. Cash is KING and extras should be paid with cash, not a loan that you pay high interest on, if possible. We added things ourselves after we were done building like an accent wall, a beverage bar, gutters, driveway, deck, awning, sod, sprinkler system (although, we did have the builder put in the irrigation stub in for us). I recommend counter height vanities for bathrooms, tall toilets, counter depth refrigerators for those that will sit inside a cabinet, upgraded trim, solid wood doors, kitchen backsplash, undercabinet lighting, electrical for security lights/cameras, extra can lights everywhere, automatic lighting in all closets or light switch, solar tube if needed anywhere ( I added one in my walk in closet and it is so awesome!), ledger board for deck, front porch, irrigation stub. Be careful to notice where the builder intends on putting all the outdoor mechanicals...we have seen air conditioning units in the front of the house??? We had ours moved from one side of the house to the other to be hidden behind the garage. Try not to stress too much and enjoy the building process!

Wayne, thank you for the refresher video. We did everything you stated in your video, in our southern home. Nothing is 100% flush (especially after a house settles). We did pay extra for additional dirt/ gravel mixture (before the slab was poured) knowing the house would settle/sink over the decades. As far as the walls, you can see shadow imperfections. We missed out on that one! Haha. Thank you! God bless.

@EarlBalentine5 ай бұрын
I found that you can get a construction loan on only make payments on what you draw. Example: $5k to clear land, then you start making payments just on the $5k. Then you draw $10k to put in a septic tank, then your payment goes up again. What I did was I was approved for the total amount to build but had extra money in the loan to make my monthly payments as I was building, so nothing out of pocket while building. The loan could be setup to have house completed in 6 month, 9 months or 12 months whatever the lender has to offer. Yes like Wayne said put all your upgrades into the loan so you are not out of pocket later. You can have just about anything added, fences, solar, swimming pool, shed, driveways etc.

Hey Wayne, I’m considering buying a large piece of land so that we can create a generational family farm. I want to be able to set up each child and grandchild with their own piece of that property to be able to have their own home one day. I’m thinking that this land will needed to be subdivided ahead of time with easements etc for access. Can you talk about this and maybe do some suggestions? I’d really appreciate that.

At 4:14, you’ll notice that the joints of that fiber cement siding are caulked. That is absolutely the way the manufacturers advise NOT to install it. If the proper flashing is used, no moisture issues or degradation will occur. Also betting the cuts weren’t sealed properly with the included blotter. Third world labor.

When you finance you are essentially shorting the currency. This is generally a good bet, knowing the central bank is guaranteed to devalue it over 30 years. For example, if you finance the 30K at 4 percent, now you have 30K you can use and invest in something which has higher ROI than 4 percent, many options. Simply putting it in a Stock Market ETF gives you 7 percent annually and nets you 3 percent per year, which you otherwise are throwing away.
