Download or read book Home Building Secrets Save Thousands Building Your Next Home written by Ronald C. Jones and published by . This book was released on 2016-02-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building your new home should be an enjoyable and memorable experience, regardless if you are doing-it-yourself, hiring a few sub-contractors, or contracting out the entire project. Oftentimes, the experience is memorable, yet far from enjoyable. As a contractor with over three decades of experience, I have seen homebuyers and do-it-yourself homebuilders go through months and even years of pain and agony trying to reach their dream: a nice new home. In writing this book, I will try explain how to avoid common mistakes, errors in judgment, and provide some common-sense advice regarding how to save, or at least avoid throwing away, thousands of dollars in the process. Not every one of the suggestions listed will apply to your home, and remember, this is your home, not mine; build it however you please! Build your home so you will be happy with the final result. Don't skimp on quality to save money; don't assume the lowest bid is the best price; don't try to build a house on the cheap. You will regret the decision sooner rather than later. Many of the suggestions and comments dwell on avoiding common mistakes that, when added up, can cost you thousands of dollars in rework, material waste, extra contractor fees, construction loan fees and interest, or delays caused by workers walking off the job because you either have become too aggravating to work for or you do not have the extra money to pay them. If you work diligently to avoid costly errors, change orders, and keep in mind the long-term implications of your decisions and selections, you will increase the chances of saving money and enjoying a home that is economical to maintain for years to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children's, Parenting, Health How Would You Feel If a Close Relative Got Sick and Had to Go to the Hospital? With this book, you can help a child cope with such family illnesses. Jonathan feels guilty and afraid. Hurt because his grandfather couldn't spend more time with him, the boy lashed out at Grandpa with mean words. That night, Jonathan learned that the grandfather had suddenly become very sick. Jonathan and his mom then traveled to the city to wait for news about the grandfather's emergency surgery. So begins Jonathan's journey into the "no-kid's land" of the hospital. Where a child can't yell, play or run. Where the television is always on—but often without sound. And worried adults seem not to notice their kids, except to say "everything in OK." But children can tell otherwise. Jonathan can only guess what is really happening with Grandpa and why. Did his angry words make Grandpa sick? Will he ever get the chance to say "I'm sorry" or "I love you, Grandpa" again? Jonathan's neighbor, a nurse, finds the boy lost in a hospital hallway. With her help, Jonathan finds the way back to his mom and a better understanding of illness, surgery and what he can except while Grandpa is healing. Esther Pearlman's illustrations bring the hospital experience to life from a kid's point of view, featuring scenes a child with an ill relative will identify with. Pearlman's sketches and observations of her grandchild during her husband's recuperation from surgery formed the basis for this collaboration with writer Melody Girard. Any Parent Who Has Had a Loved One in the Hospital Knows the Value of Explaining this Experience to a Child Esther's Pearls Publishing Santa Monica, California
