you gotta realize who are yr customers though. i'm guessing that the middle of swampwater LA isn't gonna be up on the cutting edge of design...stosh said:sounds good to me. Down there I would have no problem doing it.
that's what I was thinking. I think my parent's house in Bham is now rated at over $250,000, and I think they bought it for a little over $30,000 in the mid 70s!Tenchiro said:Wow, cheap. I need to move the hell away from Seattle...
Cutting edge or not you can design a way better house than that at the same price.narlus said:you gotta realize who are yr customers though. i'm guessing that the middle of swampwater LA isn't gonna be up on the cutting edge of design...
Good luck man. Post some pics if you can.Brian HCM#1 said:If all goes well, we might score the keys today. If not mon or tues. The title company is pushing to fund today, I hope so I want to start moving sh*t out of my garage to the new house.
Sh*t between Tahoe and my new place I can probably buy all of Louisianastosh said:You could probably buy the subdivision for what you paid for your home.
Agreed. Those houses look just like the high$ houses going up here in Little Rock, every third house is identical............ick.........same crappy roof pitch, no trees, huge protruding garage, no front porch.....stosh said:Cutting edge or not you can design a way better house than that at the same price.

Could you have moved the entrance to the garage to the side or the back and have more windows in front, or is that how the owners wanted it? It would make it look more like a house than a garage with two bedrooms.

They are saving their money to have Stosh design the Ivory Tower of their dreams.
but faux brick and funky colors can make a crappy house feel that much less-crappy.stosh said:Just to let you know N8, arched door ways, brick facades, and funky wall colors do not make a house nice.
They are cheap and easy ways to sell dumb Americans.

Poor Stoshy.douglas said:not sure how many peeps want their ivory towers designed by someone who lives in a horse barn?
BURN!
actually, if you polled them i bet the TV would win over the car.N8 said:Gagarge snob.... the auto is the most importaint thing for the American Family...
Not really. They moved to Wales.narlus said:that For Sale sign's a bit telling, no?
exactly. they got fed up w/ the house.justsomeguy said:Not really. They moved to Wales.
Just so this doesn't turn into a N8 hate thread.........how hard is it to put sidewalks into a new subdivision??likeustoleit said:................ no sidewalk/............
Hah, not unless Chevron has instituted some radical new dress code/weight loss/hair growth program for their refinery managers.narlus said:exactly. they got fed up w/ the house.
it didn't happen to be Gruff, did it?
That's not necessarily true.buildyourown said:Wow, you must live in a really crappy part of the country to get a house for $190k. Lets face it, any place worth living house normal houses starting at 300-350.
So to get to your house or your car, depending on where you are, you have to walk outside? Kinda defeats at least 1/2 the purpose of the garage doesnt it?buildyourown said:Oh, and my garage is detached and invisible from the street. Just the way it should be.

Mtb_Rob_FL said:Wow what a freaking tough crowd.... I am not a fan of the prominent garage either, but when you live in a densly populated area you cant drive your car through your neighbor's house to get into a side/rear facing garage.
Agreed N8 is a tool when it comes to his political views, but I liked those lights
True dat!!!mcA896 said:i actually like the house, N8. Just not the location. Who doesn't need a big garage? when you have quads, mx bikes, mtbs, and various other implements of fun, more garage space is always helpful
Let's see some designs then... I will be happy to cost them out for you.stosh said:Cutting edge or not you can design a way better house than that at the same price.
