Building a house

[tnshpalmer85]

For a while I was saying that I did not want to own my own home because of all of the responsibility. I just didn't think that I wanted to be bother with that on my own , then I decided to look into buying a home recently. You guys are scaring me now. lol

Buying a house can be allot of fun, and allot of heart aches, If your a single woman,  find a guy friend you trust to go with, also get a house inspection done, people can cover things up that will kill you in costs later and make you hate  what you have put your self into.  Watch the old  movie Baby Boom with Diane Keaton  you will love the movie, and see what happens to her house !! its a real eye opener.....  I lived threw it with a house I fell in love with, where every thing possible broke.  And If they say they are selling it as is  ...RUN and don't look back ... I think the movie the money pit is about a house disaster as well, i've never seen that one.

It can be cheaper to do it your way... and you can build it the way you want

I have never bought a house, but I have built a number of them for other people.  In my experience, when someone is having a house built, it is only as stressful as the customers nature.  It should be and can be quite an enjoyable experience.

I don't have the skillset to build a shed from scratch let alone a house, but I bought my current house. Lots of stress with the inspections, sign documents and cleanup work afterwards. The first few months were particularly stressful making the home cozy. I wish I could buy a newer home, but they're more expensive. I'm comfortable now, but hate the process.

building a house would be too much for me. I took me 20 years before I renovated one room.
