im already neck deep in construction no turning back now. We are doing traditional 2x6 framed ranch home. But in the beginning stages i was in contact with several builder regarding barndos or pole barn homes. Aside from financing trouble and resale concerns (banks) <evil.. i came to the convlusion the price per sq ft was the same minus a full useable basment. Anyone actually completed one hired out for the supposed sq ft cost savings? I understand doing the work yourself will save but im talking turn key. Some people claim rediculous low cost per sq ft. But 3 pole barn builders in my area even admitted they come out to the same as stick built if not more depending on finishes. Just wanted to know if anyone here has actually accomplished these stories wihout doing the work yourself
