Reviews about The Complete Guide to Building Your Home for Less (Popular Woodworking) (3):
Lost Python
I will say one thing about Michael Conroy -- he's not a believer in green building unless it's cost-effective, and he's not going to say otherwise. There's no pandering to environmentalists, he is straightforward about who he is and what he's about. If an item or system adds the $$ to his bottom line, he's all for it. That's it, that's the basis of the book. I expected this from the title, but I was still taken aback by the idea that nothing matters except resale value. I guess this is the wrong book for me -- I am looking to remodel for less, but through the use of innovative building materials and smarts gleaned from experts' experiences. Not cost-cutting shortcuts from a braggart interested only in the bottom line at resale time (read his intro).

This book is worth the time and money. The delivery time was great.

This book is how to build inexpensively and cheaply. He is all about the bottom line, and has no interest in building green, who might live in the house after him (he says as much), health concerns, building a lasting structure, or helping the environment. If you don't care about those things, this is a great book on how to cut most every corner. It is well written and concise. I think in the last two years material costs have probably totally changed his numbers, but a simple percentage add-on will likely cut it. Also, this book seems to mostly apply to suburban and rural building.
