The small house / cabin is done and finished. It sold in 2 days for $95,000. Most of the materials were bought from Home Depot or Lowes. Everything is off the shelf no custom expensive anything. The house features.
1. Triple Pane windows
2. Granite countertops in kitchen and bathroom
3. Upgraded insulation R38 Roof R15 Walls R30 Crawl space
4. Central heating and air
5. Half acre of your own land
6. Solid pine doors and solid board trim including tongue and groove
7. Tongue and groove vinyl floor (that I love)
8. 50 Gallon water heater for long hot showers
9. 10 by 15 Deck (pressure treated)
10. Hardie board siding (cement board)
11. last but not least affordable mortgage payment of less then $500
That is why I love what I do, no builder works for over 3 months to make $10,000. The person that bought this is, on the verge of retirement and he wanted something small and affordable to move into in his older years.
If you build this for yourself your payment would be $372 a month. If you financed the full $78,000 at 4% fixed interest rate for 30 years mortgage.
