We're building a house in Graham, WA. It's been a lot of fun so far. When I say that "we're building it" I mean just that. We are required to put in 35 hours a week into the construction of the house. This is on top of our full time jobs. It's been a challange to get that many hours in. But we're doing it and so far are still a happy family.
The program is through Northwest Housing development. They are a non profit orginazation that is helping us through this. They supply a Supervisor who teaches us what we should be doing and helps us order supplys. Our co-op currently consists of 10 families. We build each house at aprox the same time. We are putting the floors down now. It's nice to be getting done with the concrete part - we still have slabs to pour but we're getting to work out of the dirt and that's nice.
We're trying to finish by the end of June to get the Tax Credit for new home buyers. If anyone has any desire to help we can use it any week - it's strictly volunteer- but it is a lot of fun. If you want to help - please email me - GBIRONMAN@COMCAST.NET
