I really, really, really would love to buy a home one day, but they are getting so unaffordable, I thought I might bone up on how to buy a foreclosed one. eHow is great for learning new things.

Many other construction materials came from local sources. The homes feature formaldehyde-free doors and millwork and on-demand hot water systems. Rain, captured in a 23,000-gallon underground cistern, provides all the water for irrigation. Fixtures and appliances use relatively little energy and water — Pryde Johnson actually prepared an owners' manual telling buyers how to use and maintain them.
