Do you live in a Log Cabin home? Pros? Cons?
I just love the look of a log cabin home but before we build one I would like to know if there is any pros and cons about living year round in a log home.
Any advice, tips about building a quality home? Are the kit homes recommended? Thanks!
Maintenance costs are much higher. That's just the nature of the building material, wood just isn't as durable as brick.
As lori s told you, repairs to replace logs are incredibly expensive, especially sill logs.
The real estate market for log homes is always soft, it's hard to sell one.
Unless you foot the construction costs 100%, a mortgage can be impossible to find, or astronomically expensive.
If you don't have a fire hydrant within close proximity, your insurance costs will give you nose bleeds. Thats if you can even find a company to cover your policy needs.
My good friend at work built an absolutley great looking log home and he regrets ever building it. It all has to do with maintenance and insurance costs.
