I'm in the unique situation of having to do this more than once..

25years or so ago my brother and I went all in on a shack in rural Vermont, 200' of lakefront slice of heaven... The cabin used to be part of a summer camp.. built to the lowest standards....One corner and wall was on a foundation of tree stumps.. and given the Vermont freeze thaw cycles.. the house moved...

You will need a contractor to support and lift the house... then a contractor to demo and build a foundation..

Its discouraging to hear that the guys who lift houses in your area wont refer a sub to you... You may have to play GC in his case, which I've done..

And then Sandy rolled though here a few years ago and took some house clean off their foundations...

Jack me up baby..
