I totally agree with the carbon monoxide and leak detectors. Thanks for comment.

Never thought about doing that. Well it’s to late now and if they do the job the way we want it we get an extra linen closet.

If you mean with the floor boxed out to mean digging a hole in the basement floor to make it fit, that couldn’t be done due to the large rocks under the basement floor.

Yes we are using a power vent with PVC. Thanks again for the comments.

Mark, thanks for comment, I actually just got off the phone with the builder. The roofer will be there this morning to finish the roof. ( I’ll believe that when I see it) Once the roof is weather tight, they will be removing the wet insulation over the side door entry and replacing the Sheetrock if needed. The living room corner will have the Sheetrock removed and dried out and checked for mold then new Sheetrock installed.

They do have a large tarp on the rear of the house and there doesn’t look like we have any leaks there.

What state are you in, we are in Sullivan county New York.

We were not crazy how it damaged the siding but it will all be fixed once the siding guy finishes the rest of the house. We hope that will happen this coming week.

Thank you. I was a life time dream to live near a lake.

I have a lot of future projects once we move in. The first project is, I will be adding a bathroom and bedroom upstairs. Other future projects will be a backsplash in the kitchen, fireplace and a deck in the rear of the house.

I agree, when they started lifting one of the sections there was a loud noise. I thought one of the straps broke. It ended up being something on the trailer. Thanks for the comment. 👍

Ritz-Craft from PA built the home. They did a very professional job. Thanks for the comment. 👍

The foundation was square so they just lined the two sections with the foundation. Thanks for the comment. 👍

I was also amazed with the trailer. He said it cost $65,000. Thanks for the comment 👍

Good Idea about showing the land. There are a few interesting things to show. If I don’t forget, the next time we are there I’ll take a video of the land. Thanks for the comment. 👍

Thanks

Thanks for the comment. The base price was $. We ordered when lumber was high due to Covid. It may be cheaper now.

Thanks I'm learning I just bought land with all the utilities I want to place a manufacturer home but I'm a ruky and I don't have credit I only have 10k cash and I'm on my own nobody want to help me I'm 35 years old

Pedro, If I were you I’d look into a manufactured home. Sometimes you can find them used and have it moved to your location or it’s sometimes called a mobile home. They usually are much cheaper.

Not a stupid question. The property is very rocky and if we wanted to have an eight foot basement that would have involved a lot of blasting. We are a retired couple and really don’t need the space. We are downsizing. If you look at our video “6/13/22 footing forms removed” you will see one large boulder on one end.

@@lakehouse1894 Got it Now it makes sense. Thanks

My wife and kids say that I don’t have any patience 🤣. Hopefully this coming week is more productive. If not the shed is looking good 😂.

Thanks for the comment. There are structural differences between a mobile home and a modular home. Obviously not only the travel from the factory over the roads to the property but the lifting with the crane.

Modular is built per International Residential Building codes which is the same as a on site stick built home, where as a mobile home is built to HUD code basically the same as an RV. You really can't call a Modular a Mobile, apple to lemon.

Thanks for the comment. We used Ritz-Craft in PA. www.ritz-craft.com they are very professional. We actually took a tour of the factory and watched the different stages of production. In my opinion they are built better than conventional stick build homes.

This is so amazing to see how this is done love this video

Glad you are enjoying the videos. The builder handles all the town permits except the the one for the shed. Neighbors are great and from what I hear the lake has great fishing.

Thank you Robin.

Where are you?

@@lakehouse1894 Sorry, I had it wrong, not you guys. Different company. But the gray house in background is almost identical.

It surprised me too, but it’s up to code.

We are located in Sullivan County NY and the builder was Ritz-Craft from PA. I’m glad you enjoy the series.

They tell us it could take 2-3 more months to finish. It’s more of a scheduling problem with the subcontractors than anything else.

Thanks for the comment. That is a home we lived in for 20 years and sold about a year and a half ago. We are not renting while our new home is being built.

Thank, yes the inside will come first. We have planned a few inside projects for this coming winter.

We couldn’t have the full basement without blasting some very large rocks. Also we don’t need the space we are retired and down sizing.

Yeah, that stinks. I'm in the same boat. I'm retired and my wife will be in a couple years. Adding the cost of digging out the rocks might make a difference for sure. I'd still want that space just so my kids might need it in the future. Depends on where we end up moving to obviously. Won't have a basement at all in some places.

I hope your dream comes true.

Ritz-Craft from PA.

The foundation for the rear of the house is 48 feet wide and the front section is 42 feet wide. The width is 30 feet when the two sections are put together.

Somthing was out of square

Yes everything is installed except the appliances. Most of the electrical, heating system and plumbing are in. We will be installing the AC after we move in.

Thanks for the comment. The siding is vinyl and believe it or not, after removing the small block of wood that was installed to prevent damage of the siding somehow it goes back to its original shape. If not they will replace it.

Thanks

Thank you George.

It was a long journey for us. We purchased the land a few months before Covid and that delayed everything including the builder wasn’t getting the materials needed to complete a house.

My first thought reading your comment was "Patience" I think Lake House has proven theirs. I built my own Three sectional and I sold the home to myself through the dealer I worked for. I was also the construction manager in a Triple Wide home community. Best to you.

Yes 4 ft. Crawl space. The property is very rocky and the builder said it would be very expensive to blast all the rock.

The crane is scheduled on the 25th, but it looks like rain. When it does a video will follow. Thanks for your interest.
