You’re doing the build the right way. Family help is always a positive. I’m very proud of you Jared.

What about Taxes

[@denisewilson8367]

Your house is looking great. Step by step. In that heat I know I would be crawling, if I worked at all. You and your family are work horses getting it done.

I wouldn’t ask for anything more… what a blessing to have your own space without debt.. Thank God for it ..😊

Getting a walk in-tub with jets can help with ache and pains and help your leg

The metal roof is much cheaper in the long run. I went from shingles to metal years ago. No regrets. Love your new house.

[@rodsdiy9631]

He has one leg, and his prosthesis isn't compatible with a metal roof.

[@rallysport4207]

That’s funny my grandfather has 1 leg and he’s had a metal roof every since I can remember… the one leg thing doesn’t stop these men from doing whatever they wanna do.

[@ajlang9668]

They do make metal shingles, they look really good but not sure how much they cost. It might be a good alternative to reg shingles. I don’t know if full sheets of metal is better then the single size shingles - what the pros v/s cons are 😊

[@terrylynn2007]

The house is going to look fantastic when you're done!

[@jessicasanchez3420]

Blown away by your progress, and help from your Mom, Dad & Brother…also, can’t forget to thank the pups for supervising!!!

Hi Jared, love your layout, it looks quite roomy on video. Look’s gorgeous inside and out. You’re going to have the perfect place to just sit back unwind and relax. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

House is looking absolutely fantastic Jared❤

[@Renee406Mt]

Jared, your home is beautiful! You and your sweet family together are hard workers. Your tent being gone lights up and shows your space which is wonderful! Your room set up is nice and precious Baxter on your bed is adorable ❤ very happy for you it's so exciting and built smart 😊 your pups are so happy and sweet playing in the pond!!

[@judyzwemke9305]

You are smart, Jared, to pay as you build. You won't regret it. We started out as "trailer trash" but I have a smart hubby that planned for us & we retired at 55 years old. 🎉

[@cybersal7]

Love and peace to the SOUTH TEXAS CROCKER FAMILY.

[@sandybeard7612]

Jared, what a beautiful layout of your tiny house. Very good job paying as you go, so you will be debt free. That's very smart. Keep up the good work can't wait to see the finished house.

[@Nippdenook]

It's wonderful to have a clear vision. If you can see it, you can build it.

[@dawncaulder2837]

I LOVE it Jared. You and your Dad are doing an AWESOME job.🥰

[@jmanonmakes]

House is a great size. Enough room for everything you want. Good for you.

[@pn1123]

Love the doors, the big windows and the 2 covered porches. Well done!!

[@anthonydavis6027]

A moving island is one of the best things we built for my mom. She loves to be able to move it around in the kitchen.

[@ykratz100]

I am so proud of you. You are one in a million. So glad you had Mom and Dad behind you, Wonderful to see a family work together. Hug Baxter for me.

[@da1shark]

I have watched you for years. Smart to do the build yourself (with your dad’s help) and to get rid of the leaking shed house. Being near your granny and parents is great too. The property looks great and has been a lot of hard work.

[@patsmith8540]

Jared your doing a great job.thanks Dad and Mom and MAtt for all your help.

[@Jim-Pilgrim]

The boy done good. Well done Jared. Props also to your mum, dad and Matt.

[@linnaellis212]

Jared, you should be very proud of what you’ve accomplished! You and Dad do great work, and best of all it’s paid for. Good for you!

[@suziedrust9194]

I am very happy for you. I love your small home. And being debt free is amazing! You are such an amazing person and may God keep those Blessings coming and keep you healthy and safe. Prayers for your precious Baxter and your other beautiful dogs. I can’t wait until everything is done and you can have free time and enjoy life. Much love, Grammie Suzie 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

[@donnaj5791]

WOW, I really like the way things are shaping up Jared. Can't wait to see it finished, you always make everything look so nice!🤗

[@billiejones9731]

You could put a dishwasher drawer. That's what I want to put in since it takes days to fill up a normal washer.

[@russellwatters5891]

You're doing a great job with the house Jerod, right down to the furniture layout. Not everyone can say they live debt free in their house, it's a great accomplishment. Love what you're doing 😊

[@williamclarke2998]

The house is looking good. I agree with others, a whirlpool walk-in tub is a good suggestion for you. The next nice thing to get done next is get a toilet installed so you can send the Pooh bucket somewhere else. However, that is easier said than done.

[@tuxedo_cat_lady-mw9ip]

The only problem with a whirlpool tub is that the water gets cold quickly. Being in South Texas that may be ok. But I'm betting there'll be times you want to soak it in hot water. I'd get a jacuzzi for one of your patios. Those are continuously heated. Won't get cold. Save your money for that!

[@osmadchlo]

Congratulations Jared! I know you're so happy and I'm excited for you!

[@RandomMale1]

This is the perfect house for a single person or a In-Law cottage.

[@lisaparker3751]

The house looks great. Rest up with Baxter, he's a special little fur baby! Just a suggestion...Build you a mantel out of antlers and some wood from your Granny's property you and Matt could do it.

[@pamkammann1176]

Oh , that would be beautiful! And yes they could do that!

[@rodvaughan8628]

Don't you love it when an unplanned project comes together😅 starting to look good Jared

[@sandilacy9498]

I think that your home is going to be perfect for you. I get doing things as you get that money as that’s what we do. Debt free living is the way to go if one can get there. We did about 8 years ago and life hasn’t felt better.

[@MuttieRo]

Really nice layout of your home....debt free is the best

Debt free is so awesome. Love your new house.

[@sharonmiles9538]

AWESOME! Removing the tent truly shows how large that room is! Absolutely thrilled for you, Jared! Everything is looking so good; love the doors and windows you chose. When completed, I think this will be your most amazing bulid yet! Your landscape design is perfect and everything is so green, even with the dry heat! Granny's Super Soil is the Bomb and is rocking everything it touches! Go Team Crocker! Very proud of you and your wise choices that are making you debt free! Love Baxter just chilling in the AC! Your fish tank will look amazing on that wall ! Enjoy your evening! Still praying for your throat!

[@patrishiajarvis9846]

[@jandiddens1507]

Looking good. It is shaping up really nice

[@tedbryer2512]

I just love what you guys are doing! This is what we did. We spent what we could with NO debt. This month we spent all our time on the property - planting flowers, assembled a gazebo, little stone paths and put in a pond with a water feature. Spent the day just relaxing. Best wishes from Perth Ontario Canada.

[@TammyA165]

It all looks great Jarod, I would put a pocket door on the washroom. Gives you more room. The big kicker is you will be debt free and have a great home.

[@FloridaCracker77]

I love this !!!! 1 step closer, Jared!!! 1 step closer!!! 🎉 Insert finished house & you're living my dream life. The goats, aquarium, dogs, & country living. It just doesn't get any better than that!! 🙂 Great video !!

[@helenmeyer8343]

It is a nice place. Nothing wrong with living in a unfinished house. I did it. I could not see paying rent and try to finish a home. We had not only the rent but heating two placed in northern wis in winter. Even if you get married and have children you can always add on. I like the way your property looks. Love the debt free.

[@juanitafoster9834]

The house is looking good.

[@bethlajaunie5177]

Awesome walk through. Keep up the great work… You have awesome support from Your Family…You are Blessed…

[@rondahoward5341]

Wow Jared! I didn’t realize how much space now that the tent is gone. I love all the windows and doors. You can look right out to the pond! Keep on rocking it!

[@addieanderson2043]

You are doing a great job.

[@tracyshaw1237]

It's looking great! Building debt free is very impressive also!!

[@eddeetz493]

Insulate the bedroom and bathroom walls, rockwool bats or hemp. Also insulate the hell out of the ceiling. Every dollar spent will return $10.00 in affordable comfort.

[@debralawler-nt9si]

Its really coming together...Jared keep it debt free. Your very smart tor doing rhat. Can't wait to see how the inside starts to take shape more excited tor the outside. I think you've built a better home.

[@lazarodelgado1743]

This is the American Dream!!!! All paid for!!! Not being in debt for 30yrs!!!Congratulations Jared the house is coming along!

[@BrianHansma]

You get the roof on and you'll be back to where you were with the shed to house but no water inside. Well done, keep it up

[@AmericanGiGi55]

Looking great! Debt free is the best. Im interested to see how you do a mini split on an interior wall wall. I've only seen them on a side, exterior wall. Also, maybe out in some insulation in the bedroom walls to help with cooling?

[@joycechivis6317]

The house is looking great!

[@ajlang9668]

I think it looks perfect 👍 You have definitely done the right thing by doing it debt free. And, I’d do the same thing if I had all those great carpentry skills you Crockers do.. I mean your Dad, and you, and Matt could start your own company. What a blessing to have your family for support. We are so proud of all your doing. Just keep doing at your pace, this is a marathon not a sprint. So, don’t worry about viewers opinions. 😊 Talking about the kitchen- I had made a good island in my house on casters. It can be used to store stuff, use it as a table to eat, cooking / prep area. I bought a big steel cart w/ h drawers on casters, then I made a Farmhouse wood top & added bar stools . Everyone loves it & it can be moved when needed . As for other videos- just do a playlist ( ones you need to get higher views) I usually run people playlists at night when I’m working, I try to like as many as I can in between. It definitely gives them more views and make more $ for them. Since this app isn’t on my phone, it’s my iPad I don’t get notifications , it doesn’t interfere with my phone. It just another way to support your favorites channel. Hope you and your family have a Beautiful Blessed weekend 😊

[@hollyanderson9134]

I love the progress. It's looks better than any professional work . Take your breaks & drink water so you can stay hydrated. I'm excited for you. Debt free is best. Can't wait to see if completely finished. Prompts to dad crocker for the help. Much 💜😊from NC

[@Tcosby]

Having that pond is a great idea so the dogs can cool...i'm sure they appreciate !! House is looking good, Im having a shed/house built..have a guy doing it since a lot of it I cant do..ugh The electric got finished this week & all the walls & ceiling going in this coming week ! I love watching your progress.

[@karenhorn6685]

You are impressive! Way to go!

[@BittyBooBrown]

Your doing great hun. Lot better than sleeping in a tent. Maybe you could get that bedroom sprayed first that way it will stay cooler for you.

[@FlyerPatty29]

You’re doing it right keeping out of debt. And you’re gonna love your little house when it’s all done way better than a shed to house. I grew up in an 800 square-foot house with a two bedroom. One bath. With two kids and my parents we made it.everybody wants to go so big now and it’s not necessary. You got everything you need and if you get a woman you can build if she feels like she needs a little bit more space but you got the patio. This gonna be covered that’s all you need.

[@christinestephenson1742]

I love your house! The porches will be so nice and really expand your living space. The best thing about this whole process is that you are doing it debt free, it truly is the best way to live, My husband and I have been debt free for 10 years now, its wonderful. We built our own house too, 24x36 with 2 bedrooms and a 10x12 added on utility room.

[@shawnhall1757]

Your home looks AMAZING!!! Y'all did a fabulous job!!! Thank you for sharing!! Congratulations on being debt free!!! 🎉

[@julih2674]

I remember in Terrell, you didn’t like having AC on a lot. I understand as it’s expensive. I have an attic exhaust fan in my hallway. It pulls air thru the house and exits thru roof. Thats Ohio… I use it to pull cool air in at night and early morning, which means my AC doesn’t run as often. Maybe work in south Texas too? House looks great.
