My first home was built on land my parents gave me back in 1969. I went to the FHA to borrow $15000. I was working the night shift and the fella I was working with did some figuring and told me I would be paying back $45000. When I got back home that morning I called FHA and told them to forget it. MY father was a carpenter, My uncle was a plumber and I had worked with an electrician. I had some money saved up and we started construction. Had to pay to dig for the foundation then we started building. My wife and I continued renting half a house $60 a month for about a year and a half til we could move in. No building codes back then. No Siding on the house. I bought an old wooden silo at an auction and used it to build a 2 car garage then sided both the house and the garage. A few years ago when I was adding on to the garage where I live now,it had to be inspected. At the same time the house I built was being doubled in size. The Code enforcement officer asked it I had built the house on the hill, when I said yes, he replied that it was one of the best built house he had seen.
