Schumacher

Schumacher Home

At Owner Builder Network, it is not uncommon to have conversations like this from prospective clients, “Can I do some of the work myself?, says client. “Absolutely! You can do as much of the work as you want to do on your project! After all you only have yourself to please” says OBN Consultant. That’s exactly how our conversation with Curtiss and Sarah Ryan began.

Zach & Erin Taylor are an amazing couple! They also were able to build their home quickly, just like Zach's parents, but they added to the mix chasing kiddos around! They did a great job and are now enjoying the fruits of their labor.

Danny & Kim Taylor

Danny & Kim Taylor

The Danny and Kim Taylor family blew through their construction project in just over 3 months! What? How did they do that? Most builders don't build that fast! Their goal was to have as much of their selection process as possible completed before they started construction and then in order to move quickly, COMMUNICATION is the key with subcontractors! Check out their photos!

The St. Clairs met with us several months ago and got started on their design process with our designer (David has been working with our clients for over 15 years and he understands their goals of saving money but still producing a quality home). The St. Clairs built on a reclaimed lot in the city of Dallas where the previous home had burned down.

We knew we wanted to work with Owner Builder Network on our new home since my sister (Julie's sister and brother-in-law – Jeff & Nettie Mallet) built their home with OBN several years ago. We had very specific ideas of materials we wanted to use in our home, especially on the finish out.

There is no doubt it has been a challenge this summer "attempting" to build our custom home with the help of Owner Builder while I have spent the summer home with 4 kiddos. But, I absolutely have fallen in love with the process including organizing a plethora of details, acquiring bids, meeting new people, making phone call after phone call and LEARNING a ton of new things.

"The choice was easy for us. Pay a builder thousands of dollars or pay OBN to help us save thousands. OBN taught us step by step how to build affordably, timely, and energy efficiently . a true 100 year home. Our family now lives in the dream home we could not afford with a builder. And upgrades- no tract home here! We have the hardwood floors, single and double Crown moldings, granite countertops...

I can't rave enough about the quality of workmanship from your subcontractors. This building is the best built structure in Keller as far as energy efficiency and quality. I added wind straps to the joists and it only added about $400 to the overall cost, I loved having that kind of project control. Thanks again for all your help...

Next month will complete the second year in it. My boys and I have torn down our old house. The farther I went in tearing it down, the happier I was that we had built the new house...
