Can't Wait to Start!

We just purchased land in upstate NY and planning on building our own. We are so excited to have this resource because sometimes it is so scary to start. This book is full of great ideas, advice and ways to save money. The encouragement I feel now in venturing to do it ourselves is because of this book. It is empowering and makes the risk so exciting. Would highly recommend for those building their own barndomonium!

What amazing vision!!

What an amazing book. My husband and I are less than five years from retirement. We have been considering different ways to accommodate children and grandchildren in the next 20 years. This is it! For over 20 years we have wanted to buy land out in the country, this book gives us a path forward. We will keep our city house and use it as rental income, and build our dream house out in the country. Thank you so much for this amazing vision. Highly recommend this book
