About the Author

Jim Hasenau is one of the few writers whose building books are based on many personal experiences in the construction of hundreds of homes. This includes acquisition of real estate, sales of property, handling of financing, design of homes and actual construction.

As a young man he served his trade apprenticeship, starting at twelve years old, in wood model and pattern making, working in and around Detroit, Michigan. After serving as a celestial navigation teacher in the Air Force, he obtained a Masters Degree in Education from the University of Michigan with majors in science and engineering.

He then joined his father in the building of homes and apartments, starting from the sewer up, as his two sons are now doing.

"After fifty years in the family business, one still learns something new about building every day.", Hasenau says.
