#2- Ever wonder why Latino houses don’t have basements?

It’s probably a good thing and here’s why…

 

#3- Building moisture, humidity, infiltrations are the rule not the exception in in Latin America:

You’d think after 500 years of building and construction Latino architects and contractors would have figured out how to manage moisture problems but they haven’t. Today we have real dope an irritating subject …
