Hey guys, we have an announcement to make!
What could it be?
Hey guys, welcome back to my channel, for those of you who don’t know me, I’m Ashley
Renne and this is my husband Karl.
And the announcement that we’re talking about if you haven’t already read the title,
is that we’re building a home and we are so so so so so super excited about it.
Hey guys I have like a little announcement to make.
It’s good.
My husband and I are building a home, we just signed the paperwork.
This lot is SOLD.
The thing about building a home, the reason why we wanted to do this is because we actually
wanted solar tiles.
Yup so basically, I’m pretty sure everybody knows by now, Tesla has solar tiles available,
actually shingles, whatever you want to call it.
And we also were awarded a power wall, a Tesla Power Wall 2 for our referrals, so we figured
why not put it to good use and do a new construction home with Tesla solar tiles if it’s available
in our area at the time our roofing begins.
If not, we’ll also be looking at Tesla solar panels as well.
This is sort of the integrated future.
You've got an electric car, a power wall, and a solar roof.
And the key is that it needs to be beautiful, affordable, and seamlessly integrated.
If all those things are true, why would you go any other direction?
So I think that's going to be a good investment for us for our new construction home and it’s
going to make use of that power wall that we’ve already received from Tesla a well.
Yea so the building process for a new construction home, it might take up to 10 months you guys
so we’re going to be documenting this entire process.
I’m really curious.
Are there any of you guys out there who have solar panels or solar roofs?
Is it something that you’re interested in that you want?
Do you think that is something that you’re going to want to learn about?
Because we really really want to document the process and we’re hoping to help other
people who are interested in getting solar tiles on their houses one day.
We thought it’d be a really cool thing for you guys to watch and kind of follow us on
our journey to get solar tiles.
And also right now, the solar tiles, slash shingles, are very cutting edge, very new,
I even called Soalr City themselves and they said the only people who have it is the CEO
of Tesla Elon Musk and some Tesla employees.
They’re slowly rolling it out to the masses and checking on the install and how much it
costs to install and stuff like that.
They do however at the moment, at least from what I was told by Solar City, they have the
new Tesla solar panels or Solar City solar panels or whatever you want to call them.
And not the thick ones too that you always see on people’s roofs.
It’s actually the sleek ones that Tesla just announced not too long ago.
So Solar City did say that they do have that available, you just need to see if they’re
available in your area to install those particular panels.
So all is not lost if you don’t get the solar tiles or if it’s not ready by the
time you’re building your house or whatever the case is, but you can still get the Tesla
solar panels, the thin, sleek looking ones added to your roof as well.
Absolutely so this is going to be really exciting to document.
And again, like I said earlier we really hope that we’ll be able to find some really good
information for those of you that are interested in having solar tiles or solar panels on your
house so you’ll get to follow our journey and see what that process is like.
Again it’s going to take 10 months for us to build this house but we’re super excited.
You know his main reason for building a new home was because he wanted the solar tiles,
actually my main reason for wanting to get a home was I just really really wanted to
finally be able to provide a place for my dogs to run around because this will be my
second home, my 1st home that we’re living in right now actually, we don’t have a backyard,
we just have a patio and the dogs can’t run out and play around so I’m really really
looking forward to having our perfect dream house built and customized just for us and
we’re going to love it, our dogs are going to love it, our future kids are going to love
it, yep because at some point, probably next year, we’re going to start trying to expand
our family so you guys are going to be watching a whole lot of stuff on my channel.
You’re going to see my whole life about to change basically.
So we hope that you’ll join us on our journey and we’re really happy to have you along
for the ride.
