Whether you’re building a tiny home or the mansion of your wildest dreams, here’s exactly how to do it.

Have you always dreamed of living in a space that is designed and built entirely by yourself?

Do you constantly look at other architectural designs and imagine how you would tweak it, making it better and your very own?

Maybe you’re finally ready to take the leap into designing and building your own home, but after all these years of dreaming, you aren’t quite sure where to begin.

Even if you consider yourself to be handy around the house and yard, undertaking a project of this size and capacity is sure to be a bit daunting for anyone.

It’s completely okay to feel overwhelmed!

But the beautiful thing is that when you break it down into simple and actionable steps, building your own home from the ground up is something you are entirely capable of doing.

You’ve got the skills and know-how. Now all you need is to put them into practice in an efficient way that produces the best results.

Building a new house requires a lot of foresight—things will go wrong and the plan will most likely find itself derailed at one point or another.

Although this is in many ways a natural occurrence, it doesn't have to be in any way catastrophic.

With the right plan in place and a detailed map of how to progress through the entire process, no matter the curveballs you encounter, you’ll be able to seamlessly get back into the flow of things.

It’s one thing to have the skills, but it’s another thing entirely to be able to apply them in a way that produces results.

Finally, you can have both without any extra stress.

In How to Build Your Dream Home, you’ll discover:

  • Why you’ll need to be incredibly patient with yourself as you lay the foundations of your home and begin framing
  • Detailed checklists to help ensure everything is perfectly aligned so you won’t have to make adjustments later on
  • Powerful insight and guidance for successful rough-in of plumbing, HVAC, and electricity—save both a ton of time and money
  • Effective ways to cut costs and keep the scope of your material use within reasonable budget constraints
  • Why certain tasks should be outsourced to other professionals—and how to choose the best business partners based on your unique needs and desires
  • How to take aesthetic design into your own hands with the successful installation of cabinetry, trim, and more
  • How to pull everything together and give all the final touches in one cohesive approach that won’t take more than two weeks

...and much more!

Don't sit there feeling overwhelmed, coming up with excuses for why you can't get started.

You’re ready and have what it takes to make this happen.

Now, you don't even have to make a plan.

It’s a crucial component, yes, but it’s all been taken care of for you.

Now you just need to get busy building!

If you’re ready to finally make your dream of building your own house come true, then scroll up and click the “Add to Cart” button right now.

I have worked for a general contractor for custom homes for years. I got this book because I was interested in seeing some of the authors ideas on where to save money. I thought over the book had a lot of ideas, tips, tricks to help a novice along the way. This type of project can come with a lot of ups and downs and hopefully, having this guide will help to avoid some headaches.

I’ve read a few of these on this subject and I couldn’t figure out what didn’t fulfill me in the last two. But this one is the book that finally made me feel like I had the complete picture and gave me the confidence that I was looking for. I look forward to learning more from this author. The information is presented clearly, chronologically, and effectively.

This book is excellent because it contains valuable information to create your desired home. I learned a lot from it. The most outstanding fact to me was how to be patient during construction. That is one thing I always struggle with every time I have a building in which I am involved. Amount Another thing that I learned is how to use my budget wisely. Thank you, Kris, for the creation of this book.
