\\nSteve Tuma: A lot of people say, Hey, we supply panelized homes and it’s true, but the way you use apiece of wood, how it’s used and is it used right for codes and the structural concernsand the aesthetic designs of a home is very important.

\\nInterviewer: Hello everyone, and thank you for joining us for episode 47 of the panelized prefabkit home building show. With me as always is the president and founder of Landmark Home and Land Company, A company which has been helping people build their new homes where they want, exactly asthey want, nationwide and around the globe since 1993. Mr. Steve Tuma, Steve, how are you, my friend?

\\nSteve Tuma: Things are well. People are building and we’re actually getting in a time in our history.We’ve been helping customers for 30 years. We’re just a whole variety of different houses, different types of houses, homes for different purposes. Sometimes they’re vacation homes, third homes, fourth homes,retirement homes, first homes, spec homes, builders building things. So it’s kind of an interesting time, but we’re able to help people because they’re fundamental businesses help people design the home they want at the price and for the location that they want to build.

\\nInterviewer: Right. Well, for today’s episode, I wanted to get something. I wanted to go over somethingbelieve it or not, we have yet to touch upon as yet on this show something so simple that I think we just let it slip under the radar but it’s actually a very important topic and that’s the question of why a complete set of plans is important and how it helps the customer to actually understand what it is they’re building. I know it sounds silly but I’d imagine that some customers have a dream and vision in their heads but the actual knowledge base surrounding what it is to be an owner builder might be a little vague in their minds. So, you know, without a great set of plans and also let’s talk about how Landmark Home and Land Company is so adept at helping the customer understand the ins and outs of planning and building their new panelized home and how exactly you guys at Landmark are able to get them up to speed beforebeginning the process.

\\nSteve Tuma: You know, I think that’s a very important thing, because a lot of people say, Hey, we supply panelized homes, and it’s true. But the way you use a piece of wood, how it’s used, and is it used right for codes and the structural concerns and the aesthetic designs of a home is very important. So the reality of what we supply, it’s the actual product that shows up on site is a panelized home package. But most homes, like almost anywhere in the country, you need to have a set of permits, you’re going work with contractors, you’re going to work on your budget to understand what’s being built. So having an accurate set of plans is very important. That, although it doesn’t give the appearance that of being the most important part of the project, the plans are the most important part.

\\nSo you can understand what you’re building. You know, if you have to get financing, you’ve got to work with building permits, you’ve got to work with the contractors. Everyone can understand what’s going on. Sometimes we’ll have people that say, hey, we sketched something up, we found an architectural design thing online, I don’t need plans.'
