I'd be interested but would have very short term notice whether I'd be able to make it.

Howdy. My neck of the woods too although unsure if anything really affordable in the Frisco area.

How do you build a spec and sell for $150k and profit? 8' ceilings? #3 lumber? What am I missing here?

Alamo REIA is one; I haven't been in over a year but I get their e-mails and they usually meet monthly in a centralized location.

@Barry Ratliff 

Slab or pier and beam foundation? Stick framing or engineered? My lot was $16k and I have no idea how I would even build for $69 a foot much less realize a $15-20k net gain on top of that...

@Barry Ratliff 

What do you typically sell your spec homes for that have 8' ceilings? 1 story or 2?

I'm in an unincorporated area that require building permits. All I have to get permits for are right of way, septic, and flood zone.

I think for the simple fact that it will keep my wife happy I'll stick with 9 footers.

@Barry Ratliff what do you homes sell for typically?

Thank you everybody for opining on this. Maybe I'll leave out the rock fireplace instead (this is central Texas...)
