    1. Practicality over looks
    2. Keep Straight lines as straight as possible
    3. Provide extra parking space
    4. Don't repair cracks too early (Wait 3 to 4 years)
    5. Invest in insulation
    6. Know where the water is going (Make sure all slopes are going down the drain)
    7. Minimize the number of floors and stairs
    8. Make the masters bedroom as big as possible
    9. Consider the path of the sun
    10. Expect mistakes. Don't expect everything to be perfect

    I hope to see a video about insulating a house with the right practices and materials, especially for those that were already built and/or are more than 15 to 20 years old, from extreme heat. There are still houses out there where they just never knew what roof insulation does and how it will make their daily life MORE comfortable than just filling the house with electric fans. :3

    I used to think that my dad was just OA on how things should be done during the construction of our house, since he always points out mistakes and misalignments. Now I finally understood where his frustrations are coming from. In a few years, I guess I'll be the next one to bare those frustrations. But I hope not.

    Thank you, Slater and thanks to your dad. #10 tip really helped me calm down. We just finish the construction of our house and I see a number of things that could have been done better. The construction process was indeed a stressful experience especially that we live out of the country and had to travel several times to physically see the job progress despite the pandemic. Nothing is perfect talaga. I chose to rest my case and start enjoying our new house. I am learning a lot from your vlogs. Keep posting.
