I live in Australia and have no problem with this and I would pay anyone for the time they take to find the right builder or construction company...

Anyone that can help please drop me an email at rtokovic@gmail.com
Kindest regards Radovan
Someone named Becki asked about that name 3 months ago. I asked and posted the name on the blog with no responses.
Nice to meet you. That's a nice quiet area out there. From what I have experienced and based on the info you provided I believe you could get a nice house built 1-1.5million TB and most likely in the lower range. I know of a few builders in Ubon. If you go to my website and click on the contact at bottom, you can send me an email and I will send you come contact information. You can actually get a house built for same or less than buying a Camry or 4x4 pick up.
let me know.
