Building Vs. Buying existing


This is a common consideration for a number of homebuyers. What are the pros and cons of building vs. buying. When you build a new home, you can design and create exactly what you want with your budget in mind. When you buy existing, you will have to modify and in most cases update. When it comes to Cedar Log Homes, it is very hard to find one that was built and is now for sale on the open market. Once somebody builds their dream Cedar Log Home, it seems as if they stay there forever.

Comparing Apples to Apples


NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES is a manufacturer of Quality Cedar Log Homes. Aesthetics aside, choosing a log home is an eco friendly, energy efficient decision. Because of this, more and more consumers are considering a log home. There are so many to choose from and determining who to use as your supplier can sometimes be difficult.
Log Homes are generally sold as “Kits” or “Packages”. The Log Home Manufacturer makes their profit by selling the “Kit”. No Log Home Company has the same material in their kit, which makes it very difficult for a consumer to compare apples to apples. We offer over 16 years of experience, which allows us to accurately show you, the customer, what is being offered as a part of the “kit” and what the total project will cost.
North American Wholesale Cedar Log Homes offers complete cost analysis, FREE custom design, on-site training, and lenders who can work with your specific financing needs. With unsurpassed customer service and customer satisfaction, your choice is clear. 1-866-933-5647 to make an appointment to tour a local model.

Acting as your own General Contractor

In 16 years, I have only seen one client (out of several hundred) hire a general contractor for their Log Home Construction. When you act as your own General Contractor it doesn't mean that you are at the job site everyday with a tool belt on. It simply means that you are organizing the subcontractors. The savings by acting as your own General Contractor are substantial. I recently was talking with a colleauge about her addition and garage construction. She asked for my help in looking over the estimates from the General Contractor. I was astounded when I saw a fee of contracting fee of 20%. The estimates totalled out at $277,000. The 20% contracting fee was assessed to that number. An additional $54,000.00! If you are considering a Log Home and want to act as your own General Contractor, we at North American Wholesale Cedar Log Homes can assist you in doing so. We offer on-site technical assistance. Local Subcontractors who are insured and registered. Breakdowns of timelines, schedules, and costs. We guide you every step of the way! Save that $54,000 and chose NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES! Call today at 1-866-933-5647. Visit us at www.nawclh.com or follow us on Facebook!

Local Building codes


An important factor in choosing who you use as your Log Home Manufacturer is where they are located. If you live in Western Pennsylvania and buy a Log Home Kit from a company located in Tennessee, how will they know your local building codes. What if they provide a roof system that doesn't comply with your local code? NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES is located in Wexford, Pa and has a vast working knowledge of the Universal Construction Code that is used throughout the state of Pennsylvania. We know that if are going to build in the Mountains north of State College Pa, that you can not build a roof system with rafters any further apart than 24" on center. We also know that the R value of the insulation on the roof in those areas is R40 rather than R30. For information on building your Dream Cedar Log Home contact us today at 1-866-933-5647

Financing a Log Home


When you decide to build a Cedar Log Home, one thing you will discover is that the financing is a little bit different than if you were going to build a conventional home. Because all Log Home Companies require payment in full for the Log Home Package materials on the day of delivery, you will need to work with a Lender who offers a flexible draw schedule. A conforming new construction loan consists of 6 draws. A non-conforming new construction loan allows for 9-11 draws. This will be the type of loan you will need to obtain. We at NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES work with both local and national lenders who will finance a CEDAR Log Home. They will also allow you to act as your own general contractor. For information on getting started on your Dream Cedar Log Home, contact us today at 1-866-933-5647 or visit us at http://www.nawclh.com/
