Me too! And the big porches & shop are awesome! It would be great for you guys with a couple more bedrooms!

That's sweet

It’s going to be awesome! Thanks for watching!!

[@heytelltorren]

Awesome im looking to do something super similar. love this layout dont guess you would share some blueprints?

[@ProjectsbyKnight]

We won’t have actual blueprints but we’ll try to get a floor plan to share! Thanks for watching!

What stopes the rain from coming into the house? The walls are sitting directly on the cement floors, won’t water seep through? I need answers to convince my husband 😀

[@ProjectsbyKnight]

On all exterior walls the metal goes below the concrete. On the porches the concrete is sloping away from the house, there’s a gap between the porch & house slabs under the wall, there’s a piece of trim that’s sealed to the floor to keep moisture from getting in there. The bottom wall plate is also sealed on both sides to keep water, air & bugs out. This is one of the tightest most efficient builds on the market today 👍 good luck with your husband haha!

Hi!! My husband & I are trying to build a pole barn home! Did you have any issues getting financed since it’s a pole barn & not technically a “house”? Lenders don’t seem to be taking us seriously. Did you get a combination land/construction loan??

[@ProjectsbyKnight]

In this particular build, it’s actually a cash build. But if you don’t put your poles down in the dirt & do a pier/slab foundation (see first video on Lake Build), it’s easier to finance. But I would recommend checking with small banks & credit unions. Thanks for watching!

Nice, are the trusses 2ft on center?.... Boy they look pricey.

[@ProjectsbyKnight]

Trusses are 2’ on the house, 4’ on porches & shop. He bought them before it got completely out of control but still weren’t cheap!! Thanks for watching!

[@brendafarrow3117]

Would you be interested building ours?

[@ProjectsbyKnight]

I’m not taking any more building jobs right now but I’m happy to answer any questions you have! Thanks for watching!
