    Need my lot surveyed (& am shocked by the estimates)

    ^ Well said, very thorough and accurate. Unfortunately, this valuable information will go into one ear of most common folk... and out the other.

    Need my lot surveyed (& am shocked by the estimates)

    A location drawing is not worth its weight in feathers in the court of law. A location drawing can cost as little as $100 (in the NE united states anyway). Great deal, right? Not so much. All a surveyor does is locate the improvements on the property and maybe a couple of property corners...

    The 50'x30' Nightmare

    Finally finishing it!

    Awesome shop! And not too far from me it looks like. People always talk about losing valuable real estate with things other than "typical" garage items. :rolleyes2 It's your area, put what you want in there! I personally will have a gym setup in my garage (once that day comes!) Mind posting...

    Grunge Garage

    This guy has a mental illness. There is no amount of rationalization from others that will help him. It's a lost cause to offer them help, etc. County codes/fines (even eviction) can't motivate him to clean up. The threat of illness/death can't motivate him to clean up. He's not the only one...
