\\nSteve Tuma: Now, a lot of people say, well, I don’t need detailed plans.  I’m like, well, you might not think you need detailed plans, but if you want to control your schedule, your budget, timelines, communication with your subcontractors and your supplier, the better set of plans you have, the less changes, less headaches you’ll have during the process.  So it’s kind of like, do your homework up front, design the home properly, not just for permits, but also the building phases. I think you’ll find that your budget will appreciate it your timeline will appreciate it and it’ll work better for you.

\\nInterviewer: Hello everybody and welcome to episode 50 of the panelized prefab kit home building show with me as always is the President and founder of Landmark Home and Land Compay a company Which has been helping people build their new homes where they want exactly as they want nationwide and around the globe since 1993 and that man is Mr. Steve Tuma. Steve how’s it going?

\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nSteve Tuma: Yeah, things are well. I think we got a lot to talk about today. Yeah. Plans and it’s a kind of a little bit of one of these things that it’ll compound it like a snowball.  It can get big and deep and but we can help. We’ve done it before.

\\nInterviewer: I’ve got plans for to talk about plans and a million other things. I thought for this episode I’d like to go just go back to the basics. I’d really like to go back to the Landmark Home and Land Compay website, and talk about everything you list on there that makes your company, Landmark Home and Land Compay, unique among not just other panelized home designers and builders, but among home construction companies in general. I know it’s a very open-ended question, but I think you might be able to give the listeners and future owner-builders a rundown of exactly how Landmark Home and Land Compay stands out among the rest. If we go the way I want to do this, which is just go through the website and ask you a few things about what’s listed on there. So are you good with that?
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nSteve Tuma: Yeah.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nInterviewer: Cool. Let’s do it.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nSteve Tuma: This is an interesting spin on it. I guess a lot of customers find us on the website.  Look at it. So we may as well talk about the details to help them understand.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nInterviewer: I was thinking that people could go to the website at LHLC.com and follow this podcast while you’re going through the website and I would actually be a good companion. They would complement each other. Let’s start with what you guys have listed on the website as a complete building plan services company. I’m not exactly sure what that encompasses, but give us a rundown of what complete building plan services means.

\\nSteve Tuma: Well, that’s really interesting because it’s a, it could be very definite or it could be a broad scope type of a situation.  If you go to certain parts of the country, you don’t even need building permits.  They don’t issue permits.  They think you don’t even need plans to do it.  Now, a lot of people say, well, I don’t need detailed plans. I’m like, well, you might not think you need detailed plans, but if you want to control your schedule, your budget, timelines, communication with your subcontractors and your supplier, the better set of plans you have, the less changes,'
