Build this Two-Story Home Yourself

- This two-story home is perfect for anyone looking to build their own home. This home design is extremely cost effective since it fits narrow lots and is efficient to build. In this video we introduce this house design and dive into the costs to build as an owner builder, taking on the general contractor role.
For those interested in learning more about how to build their own home, checkout our self-paced online course at ownerbuilderclass.com/. For those interested in this house plan provided by Advanced House Plans, you can check it out here...

Note: The costs discussed in this video were taken from national cost data. Local building codes, local building practices, lot conditions, and the local cost of living will affect your actual costs to build. The only way to obtain detailed, accurate cost data for your local area is to bid the project out to a minimum of three local companies per building activity. As mentioned in the video, the costs discussed in the video are for building the structure only. There will be other non-house related costs realized when building this home. The house plan provider did not provide the cost data for this video.

I love this plan! THank you for continuing to give us the information that we can't get anywhere else.
Never stop making these videos. I would love to see a video of on of these smaller homes build. Do you have anyone who has done your course that would do this?
Nice 👍🏾 I’m aiming to build and this is great!!!!
Thank you for the very informative information.
Nice plane!
Thank you for info!,
Do you know anyone who builds houses like this ?
How do you make a materials list or where can you get them is it better to make one yourself or use a company if so do they give you everything I feel like this is a good video topic for one of your next videos
Here in Northwest Ohio this is what building this yourself would cost ….
Lot/Land - $15k
Site prep/ foundation - $40k
Materials - $130k
Sub contractors- $50k est for HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing
So we’re around $240k if you GC and do most the work/labor yourself vs a house this size as a new spec house would easily be between $375-$400k
Can I also do a Barndominium kit for less?
Where can i see a copy of this plan? I like it, but would like to see if i can some how add a rear balcony
What would the cost be if the roof was slanted?
Nice. We need more content like this just with different home examples
Can you make a house without garage?
I'm trying to design 3bdrm, one of which is only a small office, and 2 bath under 1000sqft. I've come up with some spacious feeling unique designs so far. You really need to get creative though.
So do you help people build?
Do you have any plans without the basement ? In Texas , we don’t have basements .
Why don't tx homes have basements?
Most Texas residential rural properties have in ground storm shelters not basement. However, the water table, low elevation, floodline and wet soil along with bedrock across Texas and parts of Oklahoma, prevents basements being built in Texas
@@sparktabulus thank you for this!
@@DavidRamosAuthor Texas has clay soils . They hold on to water and can create cracks or flooding if the basements walls are not built correctly . Second, In Texas we have a lot of open spaces, so people are not concerned about the footprint of a structure.
That’s racist!
I don't know anywhere in America a basement can be built for $29K. I spent that on footers, stem walls and slab that I poured diy.
Indiana, some areas of Ohio and Kentucky.
Nice, informative video. Thumbs up! I "hit" the "like" button. (y'all should too!) :)
Question, we plan to build a house when the interest rates come down and would love to have a second-floor laundry, but we are fearful of water leaks or other problems that might surface. Is there anything that could be done to prevent water problems or flooding with a second-floor laundry??
Sounds expensive but it could be floored with a drain like a shower
Not a problem. There are "washing machine drain pans" that have a lip around them to contain any water overflow. It has a drain in it that gets plumbed into the floor just like a shower does. Most two story houses have a bathroom with shower upstairs and having a laundry upstairs is very common and not any different. If installed properly there shouldn't be leakage issues.
@@jaycarver4886 . Thank you!
@@terence4427 You're welcome. Good luck!
I have an upstairs laundry. I just replace my washer & dryer, I also replaced the drain pan, as the old plastic was brittle. Unlike a shower drain, the washer pan drain pipe is not connected to the septic system, but just drains to the basement. I have a wet alarm sensor in the pan connected to my home alarm system. Likely the builder did not connect it to the septic because its trap (required to prevent septic gases entering the home) would always be dry.
Be weary of Menards house plan kit which doesn't include basics just as windows, AC, furnace, water heater etc;. Note tiny print that says "Similar materials may be used as pictured"). Also note that THESE videos use the old 'wide angled lens' photography which makes EVERYTHING seem bigger (note the refrigerator looks like it's 4 feet wide). BTW, speaking of appliances, they are obviously not included.
i wonder in MA how much contractor will charge to put all those 130k materials together )))
700k at least?

I think the sink in the island is a bad idea. I never want to sit next to a sink, even if it’s clean. Sinks smell. A sink should Never be part of a gorgeous island plan.
Sitting around a dirty kitchen sink is never a good idea! Horrible design that I see much to often 🥺
