  • Becky's Guide To Choosing Your Log Cabin Kit

    http://www.BeckysHomestead.com

     

    *Everyone who watches Becky's Homestead knows I built my log cabin kit all by myself, and I love, love, love my cabin! The question I get the most from my viewers is, "Who did you buy your log cabin kit from, and what do I need to know before I buy my own log cabin kit?"

     

    *My viewers tell me that there are so many different companies and options to choose from that they don't know what to do, that they don't know how to choose. 

     

    *Like Jackie & Bill in KY who write:

     Our questions mostly relate to the extra expenditures such as windows, wiring, etc. Did you have to plan ahead much on this? Please give me a brief idea of how you went about this.

     

    Also from which company did you purchase your actual logs, and was it a log only package, or did it come with doors, windows, etc?

     

    *I know how Jackie & Bill feel because I didn't have any help while I was doing research and making decisions for my log cabin kit. 

     

    *That's why I want to help people figure it out with my simple little book--"Becky's Guide To Choosing Your Log Cabin Kit."

     

     *I wrote this book to be a Soup to Nuts Buyers Guide for anyone who wants to build a log cabin. Before you go out and buy your log package, see if you can answer these questions:

    What's the difference between stamped and non-stamped blueprints? 

    Do the doors and windows come with the kit? 

    What keeps the logs from warping and bending? 

    How much does a kit really cost after you add on the extras?

    Can I assemble my kit myself or should I hire a contractor?

    What's the difference between a log cabin and a log home?

    What are the pros and cons of log cabins compared to a normal house?

    What kind of wood makes the best logs?

    How do I get water, electricity, and sewer connected to my cabin?

    And, How do I get a permit for building a log cabin kit?

     

     

    *If you don't know the answers to these questions you'll be at a disadvantage when your dealing with the log cabin kit companies. That's why my book answers all those questions and more. Now, let me tell you, there are a lot of things the log cabin sales people don't tell you, and if you walk in there unprepared you might be sorry. 

     

    *I wrote this book because I wish  something like this existed when I was shopping for my log cabin. I was on my own and had to do all my own research and figure it all out by myself.

     

    *Before I chose my log cabin kit, I did research for a whole year.

    First I read tons of websites.

    Then after I narrowed it down I ordered brochures and catalogues.

    After that I made lots of phone calls to ask questions.

    And last but not least I visited some log cabin models.

    After all my research I walked into the sales office and got a great deal, but most of all I got the log cabin kit my heart desired.

     

    *"Becky's Guide To Choosing Your Log Cabin Kit" is a buyers guide for anyone who dreams of successfully building their own cabin like I did. My book will save you time, money, and frustration.

    *Happy Homesteading!
