American ingenuity?

We see lots of interesting foundations, here is a recent one with some home owner engineering 

Foundation surprise  One beam was cut apparently to make room to crawl under a portion of the home and when nothing fell down they left it that way. If one isn't enough, try twoWhen one isn't working don't fix it just add another post. Why not... lol

When you are attempting to sell a home and the foundation looks like this it is likely going to be a renovation loan. The FHA 203k or the Fannie Mae HomeStyle Renovation loan program would work well in this situation.

Holy cow that looks rough under there.  That would not even be allowed in our community...(I hope)!

Mike, I agree, maybe back in the Flintstone's days but not any time in recent years. It is odd what some will do in an emergency and if it seems to work we'll just leave it alone... now try to sell it. Thanks for stopping by. M

It amazes me, what some people do to their homes. You would think they would want to do it right but that's not how many people think these days.

Julie, this is just one of hundreds of field expedient things we've seen over the years.
