ENROLL IN BARNDOMINIUM UNIVERSITY TODAYDreams Becoming Nightmares
I don’t just talk about “contractors gone wrong” — I’ve seen it firsthand.
My name is Kristina Richie, the founder of The Barndo Pro. I'm wife, mother of 8, and general contractor who has designed, built, and overseen dozens of barndominiums from dream to move-in day, including my own.
While I absolutely love bringing a family's dream to life, I hate seeing people getting taken advantage of.
One family trusted a contractor with $62,000 — their life savings. That contractor left them with nothing but a half-completed dirt pad, then disappeared. The money was gone and they were left scrambling, trying to figure out how to build their house with the little they had left.Â
Another local family spent $160,000 with a builder, and all they were left with was a slab — and a house that collapsed after a wind storm. Later, it came out that this builder had done this to at least 8 other families, too.
And here’s the kicker: both of these families had loans through a bank. They thought that meant they were safe. They weren’t.
👉 The sad truth is, these stories happen every single day. Contractors walk away with people’s dreams, and there’s no do-over.
That’s why I built Barndominium University. To give you the insider knowledge to protect yourself before it’s too late.
This course is the insurance policy for your dream.
Some of the builds I've done:
Hiring A Contractor Doesn't Guarantee Peace Of Mind
It often creates more stress.
Every single day, people lose tens of thousands of dollars from bad draw schedules, unpurchased materials, padded budgets, stretched timelines, and human mistakes. You’re trusting another person being with a lot of money. That’s risky.
Hiring a general contractor will cost you 10–20% of your total build cost. On a $400,000 build, that’s $40,000–$80,000 — just for someone to manage your project.
But what if you don’t need someone managing everything… you just need a pro in your corner to answer questions when you get stuck?
👉 That's exactly why I also created Contractor on Demand.
For a flat fee, you can book a 30-minute call with a seasoned builder who will:
-
Walk you through decisions in real time.
-
Tell you what's normal pricing, and what's a red flag.
- Help you solve problems before they become disasters.
This is your “phone-a-friend” for building. Get expert advice in real-time without paying a GC premium.
LEARN MORE ABOUT CONTRACTOR ON DEMANDFloor Plans That Have It All (Literally)
Let me be really honest with you: most barndominium plans available to buy online aren't actually usable, because most of those designers have never built barndominiums. They're designers, not builders.
But after years of both designing and building dozens of barndominiums, I can spot the issues instantly—laundry rooms that are too small, doors that are too narrow, unlivable rooms, and plumbing in the wrong spot. In Barndominium University, I’ll teach you how to spot these issues, and more. No more wasting thousands on plans you can't use.
I also designed several time-tested done-for-you floor plans that have everything you need, including electrical and plumbing.
