Publisher's summary

Be warned: This might just encourage you to actually start building that dream home of yours....

Are you ready to get building, but still find yourself feeling like something’s missing?

You’ve been dreaming of building your own home for years now, but somehow it just doesn’t seem like you’re fully prepared....

Maybe you’re a bit worried about the cost, or how everything will actually go once you get started?

These are completely reasonable concerns to have, and it makes total sense that you have a bit of hesitation with this whole project.

Building your own home is a sizable task and, of course, when it’s been your dream for so long, you want things to be right.

But this doesn't have to leave you frozen in your tracks.

Building a house is just like any other great journey—it unfolds one beautiful (and sometimes, tiny) step at a time.

The good news is that what this path of tiny steps looks like is very clear and straightforward.

Finally, a specific and detailed guide to help you maneuver these first steps and get your land ready for the build is here!

Just because you haven’t done this before doesn't mean others haven’t—and it’s completely okay to seek some help from time to time!

With a little guidance in the right direction, you’ll surely be able to conquer the rest without a sweat.

A bit of structure and larger financial awareness is just an added bonus!

In Building My Own House, you’ll discover:

  • Everything you need to know about utilizing your unique skill set and becoming your own general contractor
  • A detailed look at the very first steps to take when building your own home—focus on what’s directly in front of you without getting lost in the noise
  • The best way to nail down a loan, so it doesn't end up costing you a fortune
  • How to properly balance your finances and budgeting like a boss, saving you even more money in the long run
  • An overview of all the details that will need to be in order to ensure your land is completely ready for building
  • How to find the best sub-contractors for when you do need help—and what you can expect to be paying them
  • Insider tips and tricks for making the most of your relationships with your suppliers so you can, again, save some money!
  • And much more!

You’re ready, and you have been ready for a while now.

You (and you alone) have to decide: Are you going to make your dream become a reality, or will you just continue to sit there and daydream instead?

The path has never been more clear.

What are you waiting for?

Great guide for building your dream home!

I enjoy this book because I want to build a house and it lays out each stage in an easy-to-understand manner. Building on suitable land and the benefits and usefulness of engaging a land surveyor are often underestimated. These details are frequently missed. I really appreciated how the book offered price estimates!

Building…. Confidence!

An amazing resource for building a home. This was a confidence booster for sure. It did great to guide the process from start to finish. My favorite part was how to hire contractors, how to negotiate with them, and what you can do to save money along the journey. I’d recommend this for independent builder to give themselves a major advantage and skip all the pitfalls.

Insightful!

This book is so excellent. I've always been curious as to how you build your own home, and now I have an idea. I would definitely need to refer back to this guide if I was in the build process. I would highly recommend reading this guide before determining if building your own home is for you and during the build if you decide to take on a home-building project.

Amazing and inspirational

We have been working on our dream home for a while and needed some tips so that we wouldn't be forced to get an expensive contractor. We had a lot of notes and tips from this book that it gave us our second wind!

EASY AND SMART!

Some people may think of building their own house in the current property market to save money. Even though this book is focused on creating a dream or retirement home, I believe everyone thinking about creating their own home can gain from it. The book discusses a lot of important things to think about when constructing a house. The procedures and resources needed to get ready for a dream house build are well laid out by Kris Land. I enjoy how this book is organized since it makes things simple to follow and understand. I now have a lot to think about in order to complete my project properly. Thanks!
