Hey, didn't you build you own house? I figure if you can do it, it
should be a snap.


Once again, I suggest you get Loogy to help you. The two of you should
make a wonderful pair.


Did you have any problems finding good trades when building your home?
I would assume you had great trades for the brickwork, but I was
thinking more about plumbing and electrician etc.


As soon as you post your full legal name here and I can verify it, I'll
be glad to fill you in on the good, the bad, and the ugly in reference
to serving as your own GC on the construction of a personal home. I will
tell you that it is not a challenge to be taken on lightly.
