Steve in Greenspoint says, “What should I expect to pay per square foot for a builder grade, pier beam home?”
Tom:
I don’t know (laugh).
Charlie:
I don’t know. I’m writing this down to send him …
Tom:
I don’t know, but, to elaborate, please, I don’t know what the project is. There’s no such thing as …
Charlie:

Tom:

Charlie:
I know when I built custom homes they went from about $150-200 a square foot. I was a builder. I don’t know, my builder grade might be different than another builder grade. Do you want a good home or a bad home? A bad home costs just as much as a good home. Especially in the long run it costs more. Get a good home. You are going to pay about that price, somewhere in there.
Tom:
See an old pay me now or pay me later principal at work here.
