Building Permit Guide: How to Get Your New Home Plans Approved the First Time

Episode 74: If the idea of dealing with building departments and permits feels intimidating, this episode breaks down how to get from “no idea where to start” to “permit ready, buildable plans” without losing months in confusion. You will learn why zoning, building, planning, water, sewer, and other departments often don’t communicate well, how vague answers like “just send plans” can derail an owner builder, and how Landmark steps in to interpret requirements, coordinate architectural and structural design, and produce unified plan sets that both satisfy local codes and are actually practical to build from. You’ll learn the difference between architectural vs. structural plans, why “pretty” 3D drawings aren’t the same as real buildable plans, how mismatched drawings, missing energy or green code details, and on site “we’ll figure it out later” decisions destroy schedules and budgets, and why doing the homework up front — with permit ready, inspector friendly plans — is the fastest, least stressful way to get your new home approved and built.

Build Your Own Home Without a General Contractor: Owner‑Builder Guide to Saving Big

Episode 73: Thinking about building your own house and skipping the general contractor? This episode explains how the owner builder approach really works: where you can save 20–40% by acting as your own GC, what responsibilities you actually take on (design decisions, scheduling, hiring subs, dealing with permits), and where a panelized kit company like Landmark steps in with plans, engineering, and ongoing support. Steve breaks down the pros (major cost savings, full control over quality, layout, and features tailored to your lifestyle and land) and the cons (time, stress, and a real learning curve), using real stories of customers who’ve built one home or many — sometimes even involving their kids in budgeting and planning. You’ll also hear how quick guidance can turn confusing building department demands into simple action steps, and how to decide if managing your own build is realistic for your skills, budget, and schedule.

How to Choose the Right Panelized Home Kit Company (Support, Design & Everything Explained)

Episode 72: If you’re comparing kit home or panelized home companies, this conversation shows you what actually matters beyond the price of lumber. Steve Tuma breaks down how modern home building isn’t just “buy plans and wood” — it’s architectural design, structural engineering, energy codes, site planning, and dealing with picky (or nonexistent) building departments across 50 states. He explains how a good panelized home company should help you navigate all of that, not just drop a truckload of materials in your driveway. You’ll hear real stories of first time owner builders, repeat customers, and investors who used Landmark homes for rentals and retirement properties — including a Virginia home that survived three hurricanes and an F4 tornado with only three shingles lost. Steve shows how multi hour design calls, small layout tweaks (like closet doors and accessibility), and fast answers when building departments or site conditions raise issues are the difference between a stressful build and a successful one.
