Thats 1 day, but we busted butt today at the end. It took a long time to get the box square and how i wanted it, so after that we busted ass to make it look like we did something. And we did do something today.

In the shadow at the top on the left stretching to the middle, that's just the form then, not concrete.

Correct. It drops off underneath the oak. Its just the outside form board. We'll be done by mid-day tomorrow, the plumber will show up 10ish. He can work out by the street tying in the sewer and water if we're not ready for him inside yet.
It basically goes...
Outside form board
ground plumbing
ground electrical
grade inside, rebar in footings
INSPECTION
pour footings
rock
pour slab
If you pour these things monolithic, you lose way too much concrete (money) on the sluf from the rock to the footings. It's an extra day, but you still save. Little slabs you can pour in 1 shot.

What kind of rock?
Do you ever build basements?
What is your total cost estimate for the project?

3/4 crushed
Not out here.
My wife and I are the only peeps who know, but depending on permits, you'd be looking at 95-135 per sq ft costs, without profit and O/H.
Thats with some stepped down quality from a couple million dollar house. Still Stainless appliances, granite counter tops, tile showers, wood floors though.

Where do you get the capital?

Believe it or not, I secured a construction loan on this one. I've got a fairly good track record. I've build big houses out of pocket, but went with a pain-in-the-ass construction loan on this one.
I expect to live in this one for a while, but its a location across from a park and in and older established neighborhood, so its possible someone could make me an offer for it, but I doubt it. comma crazy
