We are in the middle of the worst economic times in our lifetime. Many people ask me, why build a house now. There are plenty of houses available- they are priced lower than usual. Why in the world would you want to build a house now?
Because... I care about my house. It means something to me. It defines me in a way that clothes and cars can't. And nearly every house my wife and I have looked at over the past 2-3 months depress me in a way that clothes and cars can't. So, I will press on, and try to fight the good fight and figure out a way to build my family a house that I'm proud of and that will be a happy place to live.
I have just found your blog as we are just beginning the process of buying a lot upon which we hope to build a Not So Big House. Your blog is a wealth of information, thank you!
