Some jurisdictions have a notoriously tough codes enforcement official and others have almost no oversight. But what about the non-governmental burden of the HOA? Does this “authority” protect the community or drive the cost of housing way beyond what value it adds? This week the fellas are joined by @stephaniebuildsit to learn how a porta potty can cost you $28,000 in Utah.

Building Consensus | Episode 174: Easier to Build New or Re-Do?
It may seem so obvious as to not even warrant a discussion, but when considering the challenge of building a new home versus renovating an existing home there’s an awful lot to argue about. High stakes in either case with clients, designers, weather and cash on the line make this one not as simple as you might think.

Building Consensus | Episode 168: The Skill of the Irish (it ain’t luck!) With Michael Conneely
The sheer quantity of details and decisions required to build a home can be staggering. Take that number and add 10x for luxury homes since multiple kitchens require multiple cabinet and appliance packages, lighting selections and layouts… That’s why one person can’t run more than a few luxury builds at a time- unless they’re Mike at Greenside Design Build.
Building Consensus | Episode 163: Putting The Suck In Success
Surely the success of a project must be based on the amazing skill of the builder, or the master craftsmanship displayed by the trades, or even the exceptional architecture and detailed plans. Surely it can't just be as simple as setting clients expectations, can it? Find Travis & Brandon on the Web.
Building Consensus | Episode 170: Serving, Not Selling with Dan Edelman

Building Consensus | Episode 152: Who’s a Big Boy?
Travis is tired of renting heavy equipment for frequent site work and paying outrageous costs for subs to excavate and haul on small additions. He seeks Brandon’s wise counsel as a long time skid steer and mini excavator owner / operator to determine if the time has come to purchase, own and operate equipment in-house.
Building Consensus | Episode 178: Movin' On Up
