Another house to build

June 6th, 2007 at 12:52 pm

We took another house to build yesterday. We had pretty much decided not to take any more custom homes to build. But we see how much house building has slowed down around here and how many spec houses are sitting on the market for sale.
We have always had great luck selling our spec houses because our houses are built much better than most houses. My husband is not a builder, he is a craftsman, and does all the inside work himself.
We have already taken on a big house to build. It will be a spec house, but not our spec house. An attorney is building this one for sale.
Looks like we will be eating for the next year and that is all that is important!!

    Ima: What is a spec house compared to other homes?

    A spec house is not being built for anyone. We build it and then put it up for sale. They are easier to build because we get to pick everything out, colors, sinks, faucets, tile, carpet, etc.
    The term spec house stands for speculative house.

    Thank you for telling me that and I wish you good luck in your next venture.

    Julie,
    I met a developer in the Indy area a couple weeks ago when I was traveling who builds spec houses!!! He was real nice- I seen him making a list of what he was going to put in the spec house.
