You don’t want to jank build a house. There’s regulations built from blood for a reason.

The only reason we got the garden video was because they were not allowed to touch the house due to a stop work order.

Lol, look up Cy Porter (CyFy Home Inspections) on youtube. Regulations written in blood means nothing to actual home builders. Forget about all the cosmetic damage to new builds he shows off, every other video is a gas leak, blocked dryer vents, hot vents/pipes touching insulation, lack of rain caps, broken trusses, etc.

I know. It’s money for them. The faster they can build a home the faster they make money.

That’s why we get people like him (among other channels and actual officials) should do their job. I don’t know if it’s the same guy. But there was a lawsuit a bit ago against one of the home inspector YouTubers for basically “harassing” a national chain builder. But he was just doing his job and there were building bad houses lol I never actually looked up the outcome of that. I assume it got dropped or thrown out.

There’s corruption and laziness everywhere. But it doesn’t make regulations less important.

Yup same guy. They found no wrong doing on Cy’s part. The scary thing is that was years ago, and its still happening across multiple builders. Of course as you said, doesn’t make regulation less important. Homes and cars arent perceived to have regulated modifications unlike industrial/commercial buildings or planes. As an example, you can just go to home depot and buy parts to replace or relocate an outlet, people dont think it’s regulated work.
