One of the advantages of house building is the control the owner may experience over the build schedule. This allows the builder to skip town at any time for any reason. Of course what really happens is the vacation is booked months in advance and once the departure is imminent, project delays that were totally unpredictable render the timing to be terrible. This is how I find myself starting five houses and leaving anyway.
While some work can’t proceed without the builder to supervise, a lot can. Let’s hope we see some meaningful progress at the semi and the row house is excavated when I return.
