I practically rebuilt the entire house in Fruit Cove.  We bought it as a foreclosure.  I was in no mood to build a shed.  After a couple of years of remodeling, I was about remodeled out.

I can certainly understand that.  You’ve put a ton of work into it and seem to have also gotten a few war wounds in the process.  I don’t blame you.  As a younger “buck” and hearing the stories of building homes from my FIL and other relatives as well as my house is “set”, I feel up to the challenge to building it and learning a thing or two.  After all, I don’t actually have to live in it.  But I’ve heard many good things about Handi.  If the price is right... that could be the way I go.  I’ll have to price it out if I build vs them or another company doing it and weigh the pros and cons.  I definitely appreciate the advice.
