Get quotes from people, and get references to ensure you don't allow another person to screw you again. <br /><br />Wait on the livestock until you have a secure place for them. <br /><br />Same with your theftable items like the genny. <br /><br />Assume that every person yer gonna meet and do business with is gonna screw you, and plan accordingly. <br /><br />Srsly. <br /><br />Email me a mailing address and I'll sens out a check today. Ain't much, but what I can spare. 1% of what you need, but it is a start.<br /><br />Just be smarter about things this time.

But if you want a breakdown, I went to the permit department this morning to find out what I need to get done. Here's the breakdown:<br /><br />Heating (woodstove setup) 600.00<br />Sheet rock 120.00<br />Temp electric pole 200.00<br />Window (1 req'd in bdrm) 100.00<br />Fixtures Kitchen sink, bathroom sink, shower stall, toilet, water heater 1250.00<br />Insulation 210.00<br />Replace septic pipe 120.00<br />Plumbing 280.00 <br />Electric 370.00<br />Framing studs 45.00<br />Well (ctrl box, press. tank, 1"pipe to house, Conduit for wiring) 350.00<br />Permits and 'licensed' professionals to sign off on plumbing, electric, and structure, low estimate is 150.00 each, or 450.00<br /><br />Basically, a hair over 5000.00. And that's not counting all the miscellaneous fittings, screws, nails, glues, mortars, and inevitable errors. <br /><br />Ain't life grand? I figured I had most of this taken care of buying this particular building. Now I'm having to pay half again what the building cost me in the first place. And because I DID buy this particular building, I can't afford to pay to RE-do everything to make it livable, permits, sign-offs, and still eat, get Rose to work (including extra mileage for missing the driveway), feed my stock, and everything else with basic everyday living...<br /><br />Seems if I stand still, they kick me. If I run, they just bite me in the ass...Xenolithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16564452262934014420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6667026237545013174.post-80404332928724772242014-09-12T06:44:09.801-05:002014-09-12T06:44:09.801-05:00Bullshit.
