I’m gonna recommend you remove your personal information now that you have the link from tumbleweed… That’s pretty wide open, hon!

also: I’m totally psyched about tony houses as well and am working on finding a budget done that I may build one as well! You can find practically everything you need, starting with Jay’s designs, and then using thee internet to find locally borne recyclable materials or original fabrications from tons of vendors and creative pros!

Good luck and be smart!

Hi. Terrific houses. And ideas. And site. One thing though. You state that the cost of permits for building a house/addition/etc. run from $15,000 to $50,000. Where? I live in the Hamptons, on the east end of Long Island, NY. It is a very expensive area. Building permits for additions and renovations here typically run in the hundreds of dollars. For whole houses (and here they build BIG houses) permits run in the low thousands. So you might want to adjust your figures. You might find costs such as you cite in Manhattan or San Francisco or another large, expensive city but for most of America, the cost is much, much lower. Thanks.
