Building a House from start to finish starts off looking for lots to build our new house on. We are looking for a wooded lot so that we can build a house in the woods. Our building design will be a mountain home ranch. We will be building this house from scratch with the help of some contractors and Lisa's dad.

I love listening to people who speak english off the cuff. No scripts no grammar checks.

Happy for you both , I hope you just remember to tell people your only doing, some, of the actual work and not pretend like other channels, that your actually building a home by yourselves. Without your family’s advice, help, money, building experience, connections, etc ..none of that would happen. Best of luck

Hey JN! Yes of course we’re going to be mentored by my dad who has been a builder his whole life, utilizing his mentorship and contacts. In order to save on costs we will be doing some of the work ourselves, with the help of contractors. We will be completely transparent with all of our costs so that people will be able to see!

We just purchased our acreage and plan to build in the next 2 years! This is so fun to watch... I can't wait to start our journey, Thanks for the content!

Just subscribed! Key thing for everyone to remember is having the $$$ to pay for the lot in cash. Never easy but attainable with discipline and good cash flow. My wife and I bought an older home and put sweat equity to be able to obtain good ROI. Now waiting for the market to adjust to be able to cash out refi and buy land. Kudos to y’all and wish you all the best. Hoping to be in y’all’s shoes within the next 2-4 yrs!

Welcome back and good luck on your build. If it was me, I'd stay away from any HOA. Hopefully your HOA doesn't impact/limit what you want to do...

So far we have watched the first three episodes. Reminds us of having our house built all those years ago. Of course it was much easier for us having a builder and being in a subdivision. Your design looks beautiful. Don’t forget it needs to be furnished.

@FarisandLisa Жыл бұрын

We love hearing that. I am sure the cost of lumber was a little bit lower :). Yes, We will need furniture. As long as we have 1 couch and a bed I think we can make it haha

@specimenx2571 Жыл бұрын

Welcome back!! Question for you, I've been watching all your old videos and was wondering if you still used the Canon EOS R5 with the 15-35mm lens the most? If so, is it the RF or EF version and how did you deal with the "wobble"? Thank you!

@FarisandLisa Жыл бұрын

Hi, Yes we still use the R5. We did not experience any wobble in the 15-35 until we updated the firmware. We had one of the first production models and some how luckily the first ones did not have this problem. I sent in the camera and lens into Canon and they said they could not fix it. We still use it but we have changed over to some older EF 16-35 and 24-70 non IS lenses in the meantime. I don't use it for client work anymore because of that issue. very unfortunate. The issue arrises with the wide IS lenses that can be turned off and on via the lens switch.. The internal 5 axis stabilization in the R5 is actually nice alone. For a while we thought we had the perfect setup :)

Hola amigo Saludos desde Chile también soy constructor en mi país y para mí no hay mejor lugar en el campo que vivir en Estados Unidos o cerca y conectado con la naturaleza es importante y no vivir estresado en la ciudad y con esa energía negativa que hay en la ciudad también Recuerden que si quieren hacer un proyecto Y qué bueno que esté en el campo Así que eso Espero que pueda construir un gallinero para tener huevos de campo

Faris owned a house, and I (Lisa) lived with him and then he sold it, and then we bought a van together where we traveled in it for 1.5 years and now we’re building this house together!
