I am sure you guys have the posts leveled properly but the way you showed us the levels were facing the same way. Both were showing sided to side not front to back from camera point of view.
You don't need so much teflon tape. 4 wraps is enough. Also, it doesn't matter if it's red to red or black to black because it's 240v. It is best practice to do color matching.
Recasting makes sense so long as you have money to put towards the principal that will lower your monthly, but refi allows you to lower your monthly with a lower (hopefully) new interest rate while the fees are rolled into the new loan. Am I understanding this right? The overall concept makes sense, but this is contingent on you having money to put towards a balance vs. wanting to lower the monthly, technically increasing your loan amount, but you’re not paying the fees upfront.
Refi= new interest rate, lowered payment, increased loan balance (because of fees), no additional down payment needed Recast= same interest rate, lowered payment, lowered loan balance, additional down payment needed
Should have used saddle rafter ties, not lag screws. Screws will loosen, especially as rafters will also rot as moisture intrudes. Not much rain (used to be), but the sun seems to accelerare rot (35yr Phoenician, too). With monsoons, screw might not be strong enough when you add solit roof. BUT, with all of that, excellent design. You might want to consider also adding vertical support 45deg on posts, to minimize left/right wobble.
I love this! @taylor.g.deloye around the 11:15 mark you say "this thing should be next to indestructible" but also IIRC you say this build is in Arizona, which isn't particularly known for bad weather. That said, if one was constructing a car port in New England, with nearby trees, would you have done anything different, strength-wise?
In the following weeks I added additional beams across the top, more support posts in the middle and a large metal roof. I think it would do fine in New England, there are intense monsoons in Arizona with 60mph winds in late summer. I would be sure to use pressure treated wood as NE is much wetter and wood rots faster.
When I first heard about recasting a mortgage I first thought it was some type of infomercial for some 5 step program. Now, listening to you, it makes financial sense and every homeowner should know this. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Looks good brother. I was gonna get a new garage door (3 car garage) due to the garage stopped working. It's from 1996. Got quoted at 4700 bucks... So I bought a new carrier for 20 bucks and am going to go your route and just service and repaint. Nice video. End result looks fantastic.
Right. Understand the potential. I just bought a house for $34,000. If something happens I call police. I complain to the city about neglect. Some people are rehabbing and new construction nearby.
Stockton California is that city. 67 miles East of San Francisco and 35 miles south of Sacramento. Old money neighborhoods in Oxford Circle, Oxford Manor, Oxford Park, Oxford Tuxedo, Caldwell Village. Waterfront homes in Brookside, Estates in Morada, Large upper middle class homes in Spanos Ranch. Half the price of comparable homes in the Bay Area and Sacramento. Stockton is a hot market, get in now.
@@taylor.g.deloye If you look at the appreciation in these specific neighborhoods, forgot Lincoln Village, it proves your point. You will see they are increasing equity fast. Because of the bad press, the City is overlooked, but people are finding these neighborhoods.
