Cost of Building Our Home in 2024 | Current & Projected House Budget Ep. 24

Can’t wait till y’all can be paid full time being content creators because you have the personalities for it. These videos are always fun to watch. Just rewatched your telluride and van tour episodes. Can’t wait for more. ❤

Thank you for being so open about pricing. Whenever I look for videos on home building or reno I always want to know costs of things. And you guys do that the best of anyone out there.

Thanks guys, so refreshing to see videos like this and what you share. Im in progress of building my own house and its very helpful to compare and relate to your journey of building your house. Thank you. Happy for you both.

Faris and Lisa, I'm thrilled I have stumbled on this! My wife and I have just purchased land in Calgary, Canada and are about to embark on a similar journey as you. I have literally a hundred questions and seeing this type of video that is SO detailed, contains rough costs and sequential building phases, and clearly displays your personalities and preferences is a gift. I'll be watching your entire series to get a better understanding of our options as owner builders. Thank you so much.

The fill dirt info is so cool. Never knew this!

Thank u for sharing your video. My husband and I are in the process of buying our first home in Warrington, PA. A lot of the houses are listed for millions of dollars. However, I believe that we can build our dream home for half a million. Just like u, guy. I really want us to build from scratch so that we can have all the things we desire. I came across your video becos I wanted to see how much it will cost. I am so excited to see this video. Thank u. Thank U.. Thank u.

Great video as always. Thank you for sharing fellow Michigander.

That's great that you've put all of the expenses out there!! It gives potential home builders in your area a guide!! Tiger Rogers.

I know you're over budget but I love everything you've done so far. You have saved money in many areas (fill dirt, stepping down in cabinets in the bathroom, using remnants in the bathroom, etc.) ....I think you're doing fantastic. I wish you all the best in finishing your project.

This is a beautiful home 😍i always get happy to see other people do stuff like this lol

We are doing the same now and its brutal how much everything costs. We are in the North East and we had to have a $30,000 septic. My bid for insulation is $20k includes a full walkout basement. Thank you for puting you numbers up. I may do the same when we are done!

Hi Lisa and Faris, it's awesome you guys are working together to build a beautiful home. And you're producing some great content. Thank you. I'm curious about the current and anticipated property taxes when you complete. (My wife and I are watching and dreaming of doing something similar - (you guys are inspirational.)) Has your 2024 assessment increased based on the current progress or partial completion? Did anyone give you an estimate of what you should expect to pay for the completed house? (Based on your video's I'm fairly certain this is your "forever" home.)

This is awesome.. looking to buy in Metro Detroit and this seems like such a better deal than any of the homes currently on the market!

Pretty darn good on your budgeting, often people forget that saving 4k in labor costs is not worth it if one has to give up 8k of income. It's a total learning curve and it sounds like you guys are figuring it out fast and making smart moves. Plus as you touched on at the end, as long as you are in the range of your general market it' all good. Plus of course you are building for yourself, not just a flip for profit so it will appreciate over time while you are living there. Very wise beyond your years I'd say, keep at it...

I regret going cheap with interior doors. The more expensive once look 100 % the same, but they are not hallow inside, which I wish we had in some rooms for sound dampening. Loved your doors and LOVED the style of the house! :)

FARIS AND LISA much love from Kenya . your project is awesome.Thanks for the enlightenment on your budget ..back in Kenya am planning to build mine 10thousand dollars will do a good three bedroom house . taking one day at a time my young family will have one soon

I love your new home and the land is incredible.. Where I live 1/3 of an acre building lot runs around $200k in a subdivision, no trees.

Where did the ceiling tongue and groove lumber come from?

Hey there. Glad to see the new video. We are always waiting for your updates. Quick question - what did you mean by a private loan for your build? We are planning to use a construction loan for our build next year. Keep up the good work. Love the videos.

You guys are RICH.
