CAREFUL FOLKS, what was supposed to be easy BARN build turned into a CIRCUS and but fast! 7 Months from Down Payment to build start. Invoice changed multiple times without any notification from builder. Although we had asked to have it spec'd a certain way for finished, when it came down to it, it all got added on extra as we were told none of that was part of the build.

Now I'm receiving forms saying they will place a lien on my property. That will end in a lawsuit costing us both money, so buckle up! I'm prepared to pay what I owe, which is the money minus Sales Tax just to make them go away. but I guess that isn't good enough for them, they want one final piece of our r
