My husband and I are totally new to the idea of building a log home. Need to know what are the main differences between purchasing a kit home or a log home ?we have been researching online and there is so much info out there that it's confusing. Our idea is to have a shell built and roof put on for us along with everything that must be done on the exterior. We will finish the interior ourselves. In 1978 we built a 2000 sq ft home totally ourselves ( no contractors ). It took us only 6 months while we were working full time nights,so we have the expertise and ambition but this is a cabin and so of course their are differences. We wonder if it's worth taking the class for us considering we know a great deal about what must be done inside to finish. What would be a reasonable charge for a contractor to build our shell and roof the cabin ( about 1500 sq ft )??? We are looking to build northwest of Atlanta area. Any input anyone has is much appreciated. Thank you, Lorrie
