Interviewer: Greetings everyone and welcome to episode 64 of the Panelized Prefab Kit Home Building Show. We’re here today, as usual, with the president and founder of Landmark Home and Land Company, a company which has been helping people build their new homes where they want, exactly as they want, nationwide and around the globe since 1993. The always illuminating Mr. Steve Tuma. Steve, how’s it going, amigo? Steve Tuma: It’s a great day. It’s another good day. It was a really interesting day.

Sometimes they do or don’t know details about land, what makes land easier to build on, what makes it harder and possibly more expensive to build on, details like country areas generally don’t have sewers, so there’s septic systems.
