Buying or building a new home is like a business. You don’t get a job on your own unless you have a business. Buying and building a new home is like a business. Buying or building your new home is like living your entire life, no matter where you are. You have to work hard to pay taxes, pay the bills, and have some real good living.
Buying or building a new home is like working for a contractor. You don’t get paid on your own, but you still have to work hard and do a good job of what you get paid.
The only real thing that gets me is some of the stress. When I was first introduced to the game, I was obsessed with the idea that we could use your car to take care of our house. I didn’t really like using a car, but I knew that if I got hurt and had to pay money for it to fix it, it would probably be another day. Luckily, I have a very strong sense of humor.
This is a problem I think about quite often during those early days of a build. Not only are the stresses of working on your house far more than I had imagined, but it also seems to be a bigger problem than simply the cost of materials and labor. In fact, the stress of dealing with contractors for services that were far more expensive than the labor needed to build your house is what turned me off from buying anything.
Yes, I think that’s a big problem. I’m sure that some of you are working on your house right now and we’re all really glad that our contractors are on a much tighter budget. But I think that the same thing that causes contractors to be tight on their budget might also cause them to be less than ideal in the job.
I think that the best way to address this is to give them a real price list that they can show the contractor and he or she can negotiate on.
Yeah, I know this is an obvious suggestion, and I think it’s important for people to just take that first step and see if its a good idea for them. But I think its important for people to get their money’s worth, and in that respect, there’s no reason not to give all contractors a price list.

A lot of people who are new to the buckeye business are probably going to be confused by an email list. Buying a business card is a lot easier than getting a business card printed or delivered. I think it can be a good idea for a new contractor. You can do a search on the business card site and see what other contractors have and what they will charge. This is a very important first step to getting your name out there.
As part of my job, I write a lot of contracts for contractors. I also have a good friend who is an agent. We’ve been hanging out for a few months now and I’m starting to get the idea that we can work together on a new business project. I’m going to be a part-time employee for a while, so if we can do a good job together we can start buckeye business products.
