00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, welcome to the Creative Construction of Wisconsin home improvement

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: show on Fox Sports Radio nine twenty and your Iheartradios app.

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: We are lying from the Donovan Drugons in the studio,

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: but there's no mic we're given today. He had to

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: step out, so we got Aaron Anderson stepping in from

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: Creative Construction. But Aaron, we were just talking about this earlier.

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: I understand it was your first baseball game with your daughter.

8
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 2: Not my first game, but Shelby's first game, and she

9
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 2: absolutely loved it.

10
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: So well, why did she like it so much? What

11
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 1: was what was he? I didn't know about the crowds.

12
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: I know you're saying something about the crowds, which she

13
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: understood the booze, and she understand the cheers.

14
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 2: I don't think she understood why here, but she just

15
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 2: kind of fed off the crowds and anytime, well, it

16
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,599
Speaker 2: made me look kind of silly because the last game

17
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 2: I went to up on that deck, I told one

18
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: of the guys I was with, is as if somebody

19
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 2: hits a home run up here, it's going to be

20
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 2: a world record home run.

21
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: Somebody I couldn't came remember who it was.

22
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: Somebody hit the bottom of the deck yesterday, I was like, okay,

23
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 2: in corrected. Apparently this guy, this guy can hit rockets.

24
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 2: But Shelby every every time the Brews did good, which

25
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 2: was first half of this game, she heard the crowd cheer,

26
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 2: and she'd jump up and dance and clap. Every time

27
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 2: there was a pickoff attempt, the crowd would boo, and

28
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: Shelby started booing. And then she told she told Sam

29
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: when we got home, she I don't when the guy

30
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: spelled down.

31
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: It made me very angry. Yeah, and then she was

32
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: very happy about the home run. She was at home run.

33
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 1: I saw pictures of her dance and for the home

34
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: run she was she was She liked.

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 2: All the lights, and I was a little bummed they

36
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: didn't have the fireworks for the home run. But I

37
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: don't know if they do the fireworks when the when

38
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: the domes closed or not.

39
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: Probably, I don't know. I will go to game like

Speaker 1: Spring Tour, And so I guess you've been really busy

48
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: trying to make sure every is all lined up.

49
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, getting it already. This is one of those ones.

50
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 3: It's it's it's a great event. It's just for it's

51
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 3: not as much work as far as like staffing it

52
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 3: like we do for pread of homes, but it's the

53
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 3: making sure the directions are correct because we got to

54
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 3: get people to the houses. And there's almost sixty projects

55
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 3: in this one, so there's a lot and I.

56
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: Was looking to listen names Victory Holmes is there were

57
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: actually on the show last weekend. There's a lot of

58
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: different contractors there.

59
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think there's over twenty five builders in total.

60
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 3: That participants.

61
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know here that I get from Sam is

62
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,959
Speaker 1: like thirty participants. Yeah, there's a lot of people there,

63
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: a lot of people. That's that's still that's not a

64
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: small undertaking to make sure we he's at the right address.

65
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 3: Right that is. I was going to say that's probably

66
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: the biggest challenge is the coordinates, you know, because so

67
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 3: many of these subdivisions are new, so Google doesn't necessarily recognize,

68
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 3: you know, a standard address, So it's very very critical

69
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 3: to make sure you've got the correct directions because otherwise

70
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: people can't get there.

71
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: So people so when you're trying to find it, actually

72
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: you have to punch into coordinates.

73
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 3: No, So if you go to our website NBA Spring

74
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 3: Tour dot com, all the projects will be listed there

75
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: and it's grouped by city, so you can either start

76
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 3: at the top and work your way down, or you

77
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 3: can pick a city you want to go to and

78
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 3: then you'll see a little sneak peak photo of each

79
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 3: of the product projects. But at the bottom, it'll give

80
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 3: you just a click here to the map and it'll

81
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 3: take you right to map and it'll get you right there.

82
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: So, okay, if you never heard of the NBA and

83
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: the al They's tour of homes, what was somebodys hearing

84
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: about this for a first time? What would they expect

85
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: to see?

86
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: So we have like close to fifty actual model homes

87
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 3: you can look at, and then there's some lots. If

88
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 3: you're looking for a lot, we've got some subdivisions. A

89
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 3: pile of dirt, yeah, just a pile of dirt. But

90
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 3: a lot of people are kind of interested in, you know,

91
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 3: where to build. So there's some subdivisions that have open

92
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 3: lots in them, and then there's some actual lots. There's

93
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 3: a couple of condos. Some people look for condos. Otherwise

94
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 3: it's just an opportunity to go. You can tour the home,

95
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 3: it's free. You can see as many you want in

96
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 3: a weekend, and it's three weekends. So it starts today today,

97
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 3: and tomorrow next weekend, and then the twenty fifth and

98
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 3: twenty sixth, so you have three weekends to kind of

99
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 3: get it all in. If you want to see all

100
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 3: sixty of them.

101
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 1: You've got a prize of participation trophy or something if

102
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 1: you all of them.

103
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, we're gonna find a way. That's a lot

104
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 3: of houses to get through.

105
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: I'd imagine it's probably if you're looking to build or bike.

106
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I was going to say.

107
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: A builder, right, anybody involved with it.

108
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean maybe you're looking now, maybe you're not

109
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: looking till down the road, but you just want to

110
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 3: get an idea of what builders are out there. And

111
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 3: there's over thirty of them, so you have a chance

112
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 3: to kind of see everybody's different, you know, what their

113
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 3: needs and wants are, so it's a chance to talk

114
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 3: to them.

115
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: Well, you get the world of Amazon already just wants

116
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: to just go online just order stuff and with their

117
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: p interest and figure out what they want. Yeah, but

118
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: I'm still one of those people that need to see

119
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: it right, right and right, you know, like what you

120
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: like to prey at homes too. When you think that

121
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: this bathtub looks great, okay, measure to bring a rule along,

122
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: measure a bathtub, and when you go home to your house,

123
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: see if that fits in there? Actually, yes, if that

124
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: stuff fits because these are some of thesier you know,

125
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: there's gorgeous products. They're big.

126
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I know, and not everybody has that big

127
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 3: of a house, but they might have a house that

128
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 3: they're looking to just update, or they're looking for some

129
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 3: ideas for colors and trends and all that kind of stuff.

130
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 3: So this is like a perfect opportunity to see many

131
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 3: many different styles and projects and people's ideas can kind

132
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 3: of come to life when they come and see different houses.

133
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: And what I like about it too. A lot of

134
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 1: times the people actually worked on our projects are there,

135
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 1: Yes they are, And to understand you could talk to

136
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: them and what were their difficulties? Right, you know who

137
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: came up with this idea? Yeah? Or why would you

138
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: put this over here? Well, we had to because it

139
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: couldn't move this wall. I mean there's there's reasons why

140
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: they have to do certain things. Yeah, it's great to

141
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: get that at.

142
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think a lot of people like it because

143
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 3: the parade of homes is wonderful, but you're packing a

144
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 3: lot into you know, one or two three weekends. But

145
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 3: this is less people a little bit more of a

146
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 3: chance to like have a better opportunity to talk and

147
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 3: look without as many people. Because there's there's still quite

148
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 3: a few people that go to this, but it's not

149
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 3: like the parade where there's a lot of people that

150
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 3: go to the.

151
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: Family to have prayed at homes. Yeah. The streets full, Yes,

152
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: the streets are full. Why you stay in front of

153
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: that house? Okay, I see why?

154
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's huge. Yeah, you can kind of got

155
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 3: a more leisurely pace. Yes, that's that's exactly what I

156
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 3: was trying to get at. Is you know, if you

157
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 3: maybe you just want to see two three houses as

158
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 3: you can pick which one they go to and take

159
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 3: your time look around.

160
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: Is there a category you can go look to? It

161
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: is on a website? Do that have categories of projects

162
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: are or yes?

163
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 3: So it'll be grouped by like model home versus a

164
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 3: lot versus condo, and you can choose to sort by those,

165
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 3: or you can sort by city, depending on where you

166
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 3: want to go. I mean, we have projects Franklin Cedarberg

167
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 3: all the way out to like Oconoma Walk Summit. We've

168
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 3: got one in the town of Polk, which I had

169
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 3: never heard of before. But there's a town of Polk.

170
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: Where is that at?

171
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good question. I got there, but I

172
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 3: couldn't tell you right now how to get there. It's yes,

173
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: find out and.

174
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: Tell well because I know she does what he She

175
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: literally goes to everyone of these addresses and make sure

176
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: they're correct.

177
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 3: I do.

178
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: So you're not like guessing or I hope this is

179
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: the right way. Verifies that all the directions and locations

180
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: are reaching.

181
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, out of curiosity, it's going to bother me. So okay,

182
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: I google maps, Bingo's going to be very familiar with it.

183
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 2: It's really closeest Linger.

184
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 3: Okay, I was going to say, because here I know

185
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 3: falls and after Menominal Falls. I went down, folks, So

186
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 3: I was going to say it somewhere on your way out, Yes,

187
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 3: over there. But it was a beautiful house, so it's

188
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 3: worth to drive.

189
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 2: It's just the state start you start escaping the metro

190
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 2: area sort of.

191
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, because Monomini Falls is huge. But then you

192
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 3: get just outside of that and there's some really beautiful places.

193
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 3: I actually, I know it sounds like a lot, but

194
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 3: I love those couple of days where I drive because

195
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 3: I get to see so much. You get to south

196
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 3: east Wisconsin.

197
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, drives out there.

198
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 2: I like when we work out of town or something because,

199
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 2: especially if I'm driving out there by myself, it gives

200
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 2: me time to decompress and think about think about this

201
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: my best my best thinking behind the field, Like.

202
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: When we work up at Holy Hill, right, I'll zing

203
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: up to one of those other roads, you know, stay

204
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 1: off the freeway and using up through the middle of

205
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: the state. It's way more fun. Yeah.

206
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, And we were just talking about it this morning.

207
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: You know, sometimes in Google Maps you can depress avoid

208
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 2: highways and because you know, I don't know which want

209
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 2: to take dinner state, especially walking around for yeah.

210
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, as they said, I was talking about him. You know,

211
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: because I drive right past your house, I could have

212
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: just picked you up. Because I don't think the intersetate

213
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,599
Speaker 1: it they coming here. I'd rather just dride through the country.

214
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: I didn't realize this. I heard about the pelicans. I

215
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: didn't realize that they really are there by Michigan Lakes

216
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 1: has covered just tons of the big white birds, tons

217
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: of them. So yeah, that's something. It's something you don't

218
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: get to see from the freeway.

219
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 3: No, that's for sure. That's for sure.

220
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: So well, you got to be biased because you know,

221
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: being an office staff or an NBA. But is there

222
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: some of these products you look at and go, man,

223
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: that is really some nice work.

224
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, you know, everybody has their own style

225
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 3: and everything, and I mean there's I I've only seen

226
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 3: photos of these projects so far. I haven't actually gone

227
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 3: inside and looked. But you know, I of course there's

228
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 3: things that I like, probably that maybe somebody else wouldn't

229
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 3: necessarily like. But there are a few that I have

230
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 3: on my list that I'm gonna hit and I'm not

231
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 3: going to say.

232
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: Well, DEBI always does. That's like we did a prayer

233
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: homes right, everybody with those big bathtubs, swimming pools kind

234
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: of they're just huge big Oh I know why. I

235
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: love that. I want that fit in your bathroom that

236
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: you have to you have to make a bigger bathroom.

237
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 1: We do something.

238
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, aren't you doing?

239
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 2: So if you if you ever want to see deb again,

240
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 2: you should probably.

241
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: Not get one. Yeah, well that's what Yeah, we're doing

242
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: a second floor our lake house. Just that's what bathub fits.

243
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 3: Oh I thought you were doing a battel.

244
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, that's just why. Mega's all bathub fits. Yeah,

245
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: very expensive bathroub.

246
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 3: So I would say these are new projects. So these

247
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 3: aren't like remodel project. These are these are actually new

248
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 3: model homes that the builders have built. So a lot

249
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 3: of people ask about that. We don't. We don't actually

250
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 3: have any remodel projects this year. So they're all brand

251
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 3: new model home.

252
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 2: Well imagine it's probably harder to tour remodels, you know.

253
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have had them before, but it is difficult

254
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 3: to ask somebody to leave for three weekends.

255
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

256
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 3: There.

257
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: So it's in our group that I'm a part of

258
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 1: that does remodeling, and you can't get a lot of

259
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: people don't want to give up their house for a weekend.

260
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 3: Hard.

261
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, we want to hurt people to walk through your

262
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: living room. Yeah, it's really hard to find people that

263
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: are willing.

264
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 2: Especially you're dropping thousands of dollars on a remodel.

265
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 3: You want to stay home and enjoy it, right, exactly.

266
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, two hundred thousand for this edition, and now you're

267
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: going to put an army through my house.

268
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, Toby and I have talked a lot about, uh,

269
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 3: focusing on that. Maybe next in the next couple of years,

270
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 3: like maybe picking one weekend and we'll just focus on

271
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 3: remodel projects just for one weekend or something.

272
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: He'll pay for a remodel up my house.

273
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 3: Okay, then you can.

274
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: Tell Yeah, notice people that do that, Like we just

275
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: had victory on that's what That's what Mike started with,

276
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: just a remodeling part of his business. So yeah, something

277
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: he would be interested in doing something like that. Yeah,

278
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure there'd be other people too.

279
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 3: I think so. Yeah, So three weekends is a lot,

280
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 3: but maybe if we just narrowed it down to one,

281
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 3: it might make it a.

282
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: Little bit easer that way you want to get because

283
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: I can understand someone it's okay for next three weekends. Yeah,

284
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: I understand the problem. Yeah, okay, So anyways, I'm thinking

285
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: about the whole NBA and uh and the parts on there.

286
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: So I was rest of the NBA doing. I know,

287
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: we got a golf thing coming up on You have a.

00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: ask you the same question, So how soon you start

316
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: playing next year? Like now today? Or yeah?

317
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 3: Actually, actually Toby and I talked about last year or

318
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 3: next year already. Just Actually, what I would say is,

319
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 3: you know, maybe changing it up a little bit and

320
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 3: doing something different. There's there's always people looking for certain things,

321
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,319
Speaker 3: so we're just trying to figure out maybe we put

322
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,559
Speaker 3: in a higher end aspect of the Spring Tour. The

323
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 3: Spring Tour has generally been the same for the past

324
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 3: few years, so I know Toby and A's goal is

325
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 3: to keep things changing. We want to bring something new

326
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 3: and relevant and not just do the same thing every year.

327
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 3: So we're always striving, as we call it, for world class.

328
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: And I know that some people it was a Micae

329
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: Max somebody yeah like sold this house.

330
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that was crazy last year. Last year was

331
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 3: a really great year for Spring Tour, and I'm hopeful

332
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 3: that it's going to be the same this year. But

333
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 3: I mean people were like looking to buy. I mean

334
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 3: they were ready.

335
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: To make a deal. Yeah, the guy made you know

336
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: me Maye an Offera could refuse something. You're taking ourselves

337
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: off the market now because I wanted.

338
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 3: No, and we do have. It does happen where models

339
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 3: will get sold during the tour, and so we'll keep

340
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 3: That's why we always encourage you to go to our

341
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 3: website springtour dot com NBA springtour dot com because we'll

342
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 3: keep that up to date. If a model would sell

343
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 3: and we can't show it, the builder will let us

344
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 3: know and then they'll either replace it with a new

345
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 3: project or let us know and we'll just take it off.

346
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 3: So you don't have to worry about showing up and

347
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 3: be able to.

348
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: See us sold sangles on the front door as you're

349
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: walking towards it.

350
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 2: So if you stop a quick trip on your way

351
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 2: out and you know you might just miss your opportunity

352
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 2: to buy the.

353
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 3: House, you better get there. Yeah, that's right, get there.

354
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: So. Yeah, so you go on a website, you can

355
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: make a plan of the route. Yep, you can make

356
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: a route.

357
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 3: You make a route and like I said, all you

358
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 3: have to do is there are coordinates listed there. But

359
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 3: there is a clickable link that just says click here

360
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 3: for directions and it'll take you right there.

361
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: They don't need to bring a compass.

362
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 3: You don't know, but there are there are people that

363
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 3: you know they they don't. Not everybody uses their phone, right,

364
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 3: so I mean if you needed to go on at

365
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 3: home and print something out, you're able to do that too,

366
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 3: because not everybody, not everybody is attached their phone, like.

367
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: I well, those people easy to find because on the

368
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: side of reading the map, right, yes, I know, I

369
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: know you probably could do it all.

370
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 2: But how many people does it take to put on

371
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 2: something like this other than the thirty participants that are listed?

372
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 3: Well, so, I because this is this is a heavily

373
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 3: marketing event, you know. I mean, we rely on getting

374
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 3: the word out to market it so that people to

375
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 3: know that it's coming. Haley in her office, she does

376
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 3: all of our signage and kind of works. We have

377
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 3: a company that does the website where we do the map,

378
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: so I mean, I definitely do not do this all

379
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 3: on my own, so I definitely have staff that helps

380
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 3: do that. So but really this is about the builders

381
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 3: and showcasing them. So you know, once we get the

382
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 3: builders and get the models that they want to do,

383
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 3: and it's all about getting the word out there and

384
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 3: getting it marketing. So we do have some TV commercials,

385
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 3: We've got some radios ads and stuff to get people there.

386
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 3: So you know, it's not like the parade where you're

387
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 3: you have a ticket and you're scanning a ticket in

388
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 3: so we can you know know that you're there. We

389
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 3: just we rely on people hearing about it. That's why

390
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 3: we're telling everybody about it. We want to get the

391
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 3: people there. Yeah, that's right.

392
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: People are always afraid about asking questions these guys because

393
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: I think you're so busy or something like that. They

394
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: actually want you to ask questions exactly. I know, even

395
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,640
Speaker 1: when I do like a booth or something, you want

396
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 1: people to come up and ask you questions. So I

397
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: always tell them because you forget when you get through

398
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: your soul and awe what's going on. I always say,

399
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 1: write your questions down ahead of time. What you're looking for,

400
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: what kind of thing you're looking for, what kind of

401
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,199
Speaker 1: service you're looking for, Especially you're interviewing a viewer builder,

402
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: you want to you know, you want to be a

403
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: builder that you like. Did you get along with you

404
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: to good report and That's what's great about these things.

405
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: You get to actually talk to people. You're not just

406
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: googling exactly right. You get to basically talk to them,

407
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 1: build a relationship because these people and your you know,

408
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: that's one of your biggest investments in your life. Right,

409
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: better make sure you like this.

410
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: Guy exactly exactly. That's I think what I love about

411
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 3: the NBA is that it gives people the opportunity to

412
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 3: explore every different avenue. You know, everybody wants something different

413
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 3: and this builder might not be your fit. But now

414
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 3: you go visit this person and you just click, and

415
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 3: then you you just have the opportunity to get in

416
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 3: front of a lot of different people.

417
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 2: Like Bigo said, don't be don't be afraid to ask

418
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 2: the builders questions just personal experience. I like it when

419
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 2: our customers ask me details about everything. It's just kind

420
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 2: of it's kind of helpful to talk through what you

421
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 2: were doing, and it helped do it to explain it.

422
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 2: I just I like to put people at ease. And

423
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,120
Speaker 2: most most builders are the same way. If you've got

424
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 2: an honest question about yeah, they for the most part,

425
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,120
Speaker 2: builders love their job, yeah, and they love to talk.

426
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: About their job a lot of a lot of our

427
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 1: show offs. Yeah, exactly where show offs we show you

428
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: how good it is, you know, when someone comes up.

429
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: You know, we do a lot of repairs. So people

430
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 1: are like, I can't tell where you worked, thank you. Yeah,

431
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: and I'm sure death is the same way. But when

432
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: Sam doesn't like driving thirty east out of Milwaukee, here

433
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: Tosa with me because I can, I've just driving along

434
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: and I go, yeah, I worked on that house. I

435
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: did this on that house because when's your daughter's birthday?

436
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: Hold on, let me think, but you know when you

437
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: worked out exactly when you worked on that house, Like, yeah, well, well,

438
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean the reporters you get with the customer, Yeah,

439
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: that's where you parked for the Brewers game.

440
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 2: Yes, parked parked at the customer's house yesterday, the bruise

441
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 2: game of walks.

442
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, saves bucks and you're there faster. Yeah, I mean

443
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: when we take the scenic way on the way back.

444
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 3: I do think so much of the building process is

445
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 3: the relationship you' build with whoever you've got doing work

446
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 3: for you, whether it's building or remodeling or whatever project

447
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 3: you're doing, you got to have a relationship and a

448
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 3: rapport with the person that you're working with. Otherwise, at

449
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 3: least for me, I'm all about that.

450
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know most contractors are. I mean, that's your

451
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: biggest compliment you can get when someone refers to so

452
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 1: you better call this guy. You know, they're not the cheapest,

453
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: but they're really good. Yeah, and that's the reputation you'd

454
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 1: like to have.

455
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 2: Right, we're talking about support staff. My my support staff

456
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 2: aka my wife. She just pointed out, we haven't asked you.

457
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 2: What kind of questions should the should people ask the builders?

458
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 3: Oh, that's a very good point. I think, Like I

459
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 3: was saying, everybody has different styles and different I would

460
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 3: say a lot of the people have an idea of

461
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 3: what they want to build, if they're going to build

462
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 3: or buy, but just being able to go in there

463
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 3: and ask, you know, what's what is their process? What

464
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 3: is their timeline? How how long does it take them

465
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 3: to build a typical or remodel project. How long does

466
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 3: it take just steps? And like what communication is? Like

467
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 3: I think that's a big one, Like what's the communication

468
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 3: going to be like with this person I'm doing a

469

Speaker 3: project with and how do they work that way? And

470
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 3: even probably down to their products that they use and

471
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 3: specifics about individual items in the house, whether it's appliances

472

477
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,640
Speaker 2: head and you tet to the builder and realize what

478
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,720

479
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 3: Is impossible?

480
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:50,399

Speaker 1: It's just part of the maintenance plan. You get your stuff,

528
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,520

529
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: and when they're closed and the air conditioning goes out.

530
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: Try to get that done ahead of time. Anyways, go

531
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: back to questions about you know, just if you were

532
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: brand new, didn't know much about what this show, what

533
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: were just going on with the spring tour and you

534
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: just come in, You're come in late. This is there's

535
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: fifty some homes that are available. Over fifty homes are

536
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 1: available for you to take a peek and ask questions

537
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: and talk to people that actually worked on these projects.

538
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: People are real builders, how they came up with this,

539
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 1: while they come up with the design, and then you

540
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 1: can talk to them about anything. Because there's some builders

541
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: that will only build on their own property. I remember

542
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 1: when Zach was going through a homie because I love

543
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: this property, I got my own builder. Guys know, I

544
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: got to use my builders my property. And then you

545
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: got some people that are that you find the property

546
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: and I'll bid you a house.

547
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 3: Yeah.

548
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: So there's different kinds of there's all different kinds of customers,

549
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: different people, and you have to just you have to

550
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 1: get and feeled out that's right.

551
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,920
Speaker 3: And this gives you the perfect opportunity to look at

552
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 3: almost fifty probably very different model homes. You know, they're

553
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 3: just they're definitely not all. Every builder is different. So

554
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 3: what one person likes, the other person doesn't. And it

555
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 3: just gives you a chance to see lots of different styles.

556
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: Well like well, you know, we're in a mantling business

557
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 1: and person thing everybody does makes big open concepts.

558
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 3: Yeah.

559
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you get a new home, they're all starting

560
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 1: off with open concepts.

561
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, they are for sure. It's it just fascinates me.

562
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm speaking from the parade of homes perspective

563
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,880
Speaker 3: when you go in and look at you know, whether

564
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 3: it's fifteen houses or seventeen houses. This year we have

565
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: seventeen houses, so that's pretty exciting. But they're just all

566
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 3: so different, you know. I mean, this builder builds one way,

567
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 3: this builder builds another way. And I mean even though

568
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 3: they're all beautiful, gorgeous new homes, they're still all very different.

569
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 3: So in this case, with over almost fifty of them,

570
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 3: you're definitely going to see a lot of different variety.

571
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,959
Speaker 1: Of To me, it's always about the world of basements too,

572
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: because the basements.

573
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, new homes, I know, yeah, there are a lot.

574
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 3: I feel like more so now because people are entertaining

575
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 3: more and.

576
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: Well it's like, you know that question asked one of

577
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: the builders.

578
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 3: It is, yeah, what's the.

579
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: Because you might look at a model home and the

580
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,199
Speaker 1: basement's built, but he says, okay, how much does the

581
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: house cost? Well, okay, do you that they don't always

582
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: build basements and you know that's exactually like that too,

583
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 1: He goes, you know, they just don't build. They just

584
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: don't do basements. That's extra. Yeah, there's a lot extra.

585
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:35,680
Speaker 3: It is a lot extra.

586
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: And that's why there's a whole there's all these franchises

587
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,919
Speaker 1: now that just go on and just redo this.

588
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 3: New basements, right, Yeah, yeah, that's true. We do have

589
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,199
Speaker 3: a lot of members that actually do just basements, but

590
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 3: I think a lot of people. For us, we put

591
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 3: our basement in after our house was built, and it

592
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 3: was just we wish we would have done it in

593
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 3: the beginning, just because there was so much hassle, like

594
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,199
Speaker 3: all the little different permits and different things we had

595
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 3: to get.

596
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: When you're buying a house, you're like, you know what,

597
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 1: I can buy a house if I don't do the basement.

598
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: We can get houses big.

599
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:09,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

600
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: So that's what happens is when we get the house

601
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: and he's like, we should have got the basement.

602
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I know.

603
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: I know. You said you had lots. There are lots of.

604
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 2: Are you just showing up to a Yeah.

605
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 3: You are, And I will say that would be you know,

606
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 3: don't expect much when you show up because there really

607
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,880
Speaker 3: is just a lot there. But it at least gives

608
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 3: you an idea of what the subdivision is. Kind of

609
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 3: like I mean, there's there's areas. I know, we've got

610
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 3: a couple lots over in I think New Berlin or

611
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 3: Mesquigo actually, And so if you're looking for a specific lot,

612
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 3: you can kind of just get an idea what's around

613
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 3: the area. If you don't feel like driving by that

614
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 3: particular lot, you can go online and see pictures too.

615
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 3: So I mean, if there's projects that you really wanted

616
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,719
Speaker 3: to get to and didn't make it, make sure you,

617
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 3: like I said, go to the website, because everything will

618
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 3: be There's some builders will have you know, links to

619
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 3: some of the virtual tours of the area.

620
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 1: And I would physically go to a lot. Yeah, It's

621
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: like when we bought a house too. I went there

622
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,760

Speaker 3: not just doing an online because it's it's a good

633
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,880

Speaker 3: There are some parade of homes from last year praide

650
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 3: of homes that are actually still model homes this year.

651
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 3: So there are a few that you.

652
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: Could see that's worth the well, I know it doesn't

653
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: cost anything, but it's worth the price of ticket. Alan

654
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: just yes, I know last year, I just like they're

655
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: just breath.

656
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 3: They were very beautiful.

657
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: And I want to get a power ball on house

658
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: called the Yes. Yeah, house is like it was already sold.

659
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 3: It was sold. Yes.

660
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: It was like, man, that's I know. This is what

661
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: you do when you when you strike a.

662
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 3: Rich I don't know if you noticed this, but I

663
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 3: felt like there was so many golf simulators now in houses.

664
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: That's like a thing.

665
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, we do have a qu what is how is

666
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 2: how is this different than the parade.

667
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 3: And the prey? Yeah, that's a good point. I would

668
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 3: say the parade we are we by the way, this

669
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 3: is our eightieth year of the Parade of Homes, which

670
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 3: is very exciting. Actually it's our flagship event we use.

671
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 3: We are the original Prate of Homes too, so we're

672
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 3: proud of that. But the Parate of Homes is a

673
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 3: single site subdivision. So you're going to one single subdivision

674
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 3: and there's let's say a call to Sack maybe or

675
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 3: this is the actual one road, but all the houses

676
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 3: are in one spot where this the tour is scattered homes,

677
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 3: So you're going to like I was saying, forty five

678
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 3: fifty different model projects throughout southeast Wisconsin, so it's a

679
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 3: very different model of type things. So you're the parade

680
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 3: is concentrated on one area where this would be like

681
00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 3: scattered some.

682
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: Of the then their parade, it's a praide, is an

683
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 1: organized event, just parking, last parking attendance. Sometimes there's shuttle

684
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: services walking around. There is even food vendor trucks. Yeah,

685
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: that's usually my favorite part of the whole Yeah, prade.

686
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 3: By the way, even though the Spring Tour is considered

687
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 3: an event, the parade is is kind of an event

688
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 3: in itself. You know, you walk through right and the

689
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 3: parade you have We have two different sites this coming year.

690
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 3: One is actually an Economo Walk, which is kind of

691
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 3: exciting that we're a little bit west. We've not been

692
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 3: west in a while. So you can either go. One

693
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 3: ticket will get you into both sites that parade. But

694
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 3: that is probably another big thing is that the parade

695
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 3: is a there's a fee to get in to get

696
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 3: a ticket. You have to have a ticket to get

697
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 3: in to see these houses. A parade where the tour

698
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 3: is free for everybody to attend. Groupies, yes, there is

699
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 3: for the preade.

700
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: Get I get a program every year since the tablet

701
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: came out or whatever.

702
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 3: You have tailgaters at the prede of homes that actually

703
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 3: come and sit in the parking lot and tailgate. It's

704
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 3: the best. They're the best.

705
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 1: Is that one family I saw like this right because

706
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: it's a price for a car load. This is a

707
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: family function, furtles, this.

708
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 3: Is a big family function. Yeah. The amount of people

709
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 3: that say they've literally been coming to the parate of

710
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 3: homes since they were kids with their moms and grandma's

711
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 3: it's crazy to me. I love it. It's one of

712
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 3: the things you have.

713
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: To watch all the changes. You know, those are be good.

714
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: Maybe you should get one of those on a radio

715
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: show to talk about the evolution how.

716
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 2: They've seen Changeles.

717
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: Green carpet though.

718
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, And it's interesting the amount of people that

719
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 3: I run into just randomly in life that I say

720
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 3: what I do and they're like, I have a parade

721
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 3: home from nineteen seventy five or nineteen eighty nine, and

722
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 3: I'm like, wow, what was that like? So it's pretty cool.

723
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 2: For the spring tour. You are you able to see

724
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 2: the different stages of it. Obviously you've got lots and

725
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 2: stuff or do you know you don't go obviously, you

726
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 2: can't walk onto an active job site, but you pass

727
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 2: pass projects. Sure, you pass a house being framed.

728
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say there's a relatively good amount of

729
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 3: homes that are still in subdivisions that are being built.

730
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 3: So you're going to see the process of other homes

731
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 3: that are just in the early stages of being built

732
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 3: in the same subdivision where you're going to go see

733
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 3: this brand new one that's already open.

734
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: It kind of gives you an idea of how to process.

735
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: I'm not telling anybody to walk out on the right,

736
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 2: don't go on and edge to that, but I've done.

737
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: I've been to the parid of homes like two or

738
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 1: three weeks before, and when you get there, you're like,

739
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: there's no way this is happening.

740
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 3: It's fascinating past.

741
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: The landscapers come in here and you do some stuff

742
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: because you people come in and say, we need some

743
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: stuff to work done real fast. We've got to get

744
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: this done in time. And you're like, man, good luck

745
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: with this here, and then they're done. Yeah, it just happens.

746
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 3: They do have a deadline of getting everything thing done

747
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 3: and they're they're pretty good. It's sometimes it's down to

748
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 3: the last second minute, but they get it done and

749
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 3: they're gorgeous. So so yeah, just a little plug for

750
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 3: the prate of homes because that's coming up in the

751
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,439
Speaker 3: summer and that's going to be really good. Like I said,

752
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 3: seventeen homes this year is the good sized pred so

753
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 3: it'll be a lot of a lot of cool things

754
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 3: to see.

755
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: Even know it's seventeen homes, it's hard to check them

756
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 1: all out and.

757
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 3: One one sick it is, yes, and the one site

758
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,760
Speaker 3: will actually have eleven houses, so that's going to be uh,

759
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,720
Speaker 3: you're going to maybe be there for a couple hours

760
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,280
Speaker 3: for that one, especially with the size of the houses.

761
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: Well, this one's you know, this one just you know,

762
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,400
Speaker 1: doesn't cost for the tickets. You can come and go

763
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: whenever you want, you take care whenever you want, you

764
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 1: can say, so, what are the hours?

765
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 3: So every Saturday and Sunday the next three weekends noon

766
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 3: to four, so there will be staffed with people between

767
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 3: noon and four, so.

768
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: You can't It's like I wouldn't go there at three thirty.

769
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I suppose if you needed to run in

770
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 3: and see something, you would, but you're probably not going

771
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 3: to get the best idea if you're rushing, so maybe don't.

772
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 3: But that's that's what's nice about the website is you

773
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 3: can go like, maybe you can only make it to

774
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,439
Speaker 3: Menominee Falls today, so you just look at the group

775
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 3: it by Menomini Falls and then you can. You probably

776
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,280
Speaker 3: hit quite a few of the menomine Falls in one afternoon.

777
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,759

00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 3: like events, you know, so we've got contracts. You know,

935
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 3: if you're looking to get into the NBA and you're

936
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,799
Speaker 3: a builder remodeler, there's so many resources that you can

937
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 3: get through the NBA, whether it's discounts on insurance programs,

938
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:59,280
Speaker 3: discounts on cars and gas and all kinds of stuff

939
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 3: just for being part of the NBA. But you also

940
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 3: get the great networking that we provide through B to

941
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,399
Speaker 3: B groups connect events. Our connect events are great. You've

942
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 3: been to some of our connect events where we get

943
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 3: everybody together.

944
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 1: It is my number one selling point if I tell

945
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: some of the networking is unbelievable because you have to

946
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: meet and talk to people that need you your services,

947
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 1: but they don't know what you have a service, I

948
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 1: mean normally need you because they don't do you exist right? Right?

949
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,760
Speaker 3: And we have we have over just over seven hundred members,

950
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 3: so we have a lot of resources within the industry.

951
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 3: And it's not just builders. We are a builders association,

952
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 3: but we do have a modelers, We do have everybody,

953
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 3: all kinds of people that support the building industry.

954
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 2: So from a customer standpoint, I mean, it's it's good

955
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,879
Speaker 2: to use a contractor that belongs to a large, very

956
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 2: large organization, right because if they can't handle something or

957
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:54,359
Speaker 2: I'm your odds are they know somebody else in NBA

958
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 2: that it does.

959
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 3: Right. We while we don't necessarily do it, but we

960
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,879
Speaker 3: are resource. We get a lot of phone calls from hey,

961
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,400
Speaker 3: I need help with this in my basement, or I

962
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 3: need help with this, and we can. We don't pick

963
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,360
Speaker 3: and choose, but we can direct people to who is

964
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 3: in the industry that we know that can help them

965
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 3: with that.

966
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: No're one of the best kept scheek is I learned

967
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: in the NBA is you have a legal hotline. We

968
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 1: do you have a legal question about your contracts or anything,

969
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,280
Speaker 1: there's a there's a resource you can go call. Doesn't

970
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 1: cost you anything, right, Yeah, they get some legal advice.

971
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 3: Yep.

972
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,879
Speaker 2: This is legal advice from an organization that deals hand

973
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 2: in hand with the government all the time.

974
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 1: Say they actually got any HP. That group is literally

975
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:48,760
Speaker 1: has someone at the capital doing stuff they do. Right, Yeah,

976
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 1: he's out there. He's out there every day talking to

977
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: those legislators. So you know, when a price of lumber

978
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 1: was being tear after something, they found a way to

979
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 1: get that stopped. I know that group. This group is

980
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 1: the NBA IS. It's seven hundred members, seven members for

981
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee branch.

982
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 3: Right exactly. That's just our local We have seven hundred

983
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,359
Speaker 3: local members. Then you go to the state level, you've

984
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,960
Speaker 3: got you know, advocacy in that area. Then you like

985
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 3: you said, you go up to Washington and I believe

986
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:21,799
Speaker 3: Toby will be in Washington next week doing some government work.

987
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 3: They're working through some things that it starts there and

988
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:28,560
Speaker 3: then but then trickle down it affects us here in Wisconsin.

989
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:30,480
Speaker 3: So we got to be on top of that stuff here.

990
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: You know, they are always arguing about stuff and the codes.

991
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,360
Speaker 1: I went to that when we went to that capitol.

992
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 1: I was part of that where we stormed the capitol. Yeah,

993
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 1: not the way they made all the news, but we

994
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:45,480
Speaker 1: went sort of Madison Capitol. We went in and everybody,

995
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: a group of five or six, the teams of five

996
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: or six went and talked to four or five different

997
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,280
Speaker 1: congress you know state senators that talk to them about

998
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 1: what we think about you know things. Yeah, I think

999
00:45:56,080 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: from sidewalks whatever there was that, you know, they want

1000
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,759
Speaker 1: questions of. So it's nice to the representative of these says, well,

1001
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 1: I don't even know what anymy cared about this. Yeah, yeah,

1002
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 1: we do. You know that we're here to tell you

1003
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 1: that we care.

1004
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. A lot of

1005
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 3: people don't know that that that we're doing that. Behind

1006
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 3: the scenes. We have a Construction Advocacy Committee that meets

1007
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:22,000
Speaker 3: monthly just for that very reason to like bring together

1008
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 3: what's everybody dealing within their area and how can we

1009
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 3: pull together our resources and help.

1010
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 2: And apparently you're pulling together the resources of approximately one

1011
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 2: hundred and forty thousand members nationwide.

1012
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:39,799
Speaker 3: Okay, yes, you're right for the national yep. Yeah, So

1013
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:42,600
Speaker 3: that that just gives us more of a chance to

1014
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 3: find out what's going around, not only in Wisconsin, but

1015
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 3: around the country, just to see where where do we
