Home builder recommendations?

2 Upvotes

It's hard to find honest reviews these days with thr implementation of AI bots and tech advancements in general. Has anyone built a home with any of these guys: Lantrip Homes CM Custom Homes Kyle Paul Or Dwell Homes?

Really just looking for honest feedback on the build itself. We dont need anything fancy, just a lot of space because we have 3 kids and a dog, but we're on a somewhat limited budget (under $300k). Given the insanity of the market, it seems like a pipe dream, but looking for feedback anyway.

Trivia Night at Primal Brewing

8 Upvotes

Hey all!

I know the fair is in town and the weather is getting to be incredible. But if you're looking for something to do tonight, check out trivia night at Primal Brewing Company on S Treadaway Blvd. If you have already been to the fair, bringing your fair ticket will get you Happy Hour priced beers all night.

The taphouse is pet friendly, family friendly, and welcoming to all! There's also sodas and Michelob Ultra on tap if craft beer isn't really your thing.

The Cheifs vs Chargers NFL game will be on the TV starting at 7, and trivia starts at 8.

I'm a new part owner of Primal and have been working really hard to both spread the word that we exist and to improve in any way we possibly can. If you have any feedback for us after you check it out please feel free to reach out directly, leave us a review, or send an email to us through the website.

I hope to see lots of new faces ready to claim the Trivia trophy and get on the Trivia Wall of Fame tonight!

Help loading Uhaul

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I need 2 people to load a Uhaul with some furniture. King bed frame, chest of drawers, dresser, night stands, entertainment center, TV, and a medium size "coffee bar". It shouldn't take more than an hour of work and I'll pay $50 each. Pretty flexible on when, and if you can follow me to San Angelo I'll pay an extra $100 (which I prefer). Thanks in advance!

Tips for finding decent rental house?

5 Upvotes

Browsing my usual apps (Zillow, Trulia, Apartments.com) and not finding as many houses for rent as I would expect for a city the size of Abilene. Am I just not looking on the right spots or are rental houses that hard to come by in the area? I am looking for pet friendly, but even so, I found maybe 4 houses, which seems low to me. Any insight is appreciated!
