3 Affordable PREFAB HOMES that you can actually buy in America

[@theedoreM]

It is commendable that you endeavor to provide honest reviews and information. Busting the recent so-called Amazon ad was good work. I also like to see emphasis on all the additional time, cost, and legal issues required to get a prefab to a livable condition.

[@TonyC.-kq9fh]

Hey, Kerry listens to his subscribers! Very solid channel.

[@KerryTarnow]

Thanks Tony 🙌🏼

[@user-gb7vx5qu3h]

A few more deets: My Chez Space told me they could ship the shed roof style to Utah and Idaho and other states. There’s a height limit for them to truck beyond Texas, so that was their limiting factor for the peak roof model. They also have a very cool DIY builder’s model shell, and can customize. You’re awesome, Kerry. Thanks for all you do!

[@DoodleDragon4U]

Thanks for making me laugh with your line about being a regionally popular KZbinr pulling in average views. 😂We enjoy watching your content. Keep it going!

[@olga138]

Now all we need is an affordable one on the East coast of the US. 😏

[@mariewood2989]

Really why is it , they never have anything available here?

[@susanbeals7597]

Incredible Tiny Homes in Newport, Tennessee is registered with TN as a modular home builder. You can order one, of several different models, built on wheels & a tralor and then remove the axles & hitch after delivery, OR it can be built on skids and delivered on a flatbed. They offer stick built tiny homes and container homes ranging from $70k to $165K.

[@Widdershins.]

There are tons of tiny house builders east of the Mississippi. Have you ever googled for any? Try "tiny house builders in eastern u.s." and see what you get. Many in NC alone, some of whom could probably really use the business right now.

[@heidikendall3955]

Amen!!

[@KerryTarnow]

My Chez Space has a nice T&G pine plank interior. I’ve been impressed with their DIY model pricing and simplicity.

[@banzaipiegaming]

Not only is Wolf cheaper to start, but from the images it looks like they have more options for customization and the inside has a way cleaner/high end design. Chez will need to step it up to compete with them if they go nationwide

[@juliebarnett9812]

Thanks for the Texas connection, Kerry!

[@thesilver6147]

These looks great. How about 60k or less. Do they exist?

[@billderinbaja3883]

Only if you order a shell (exterior complete with roof, windows, doors) and finish the interior yourself (electrical, mechanical, plumbing, drywall, paint, flooring, appliances).

[@dalegereaux1863]

I'm glad you included the site prep amount with the price on the Wolfe Industries model. I've always wondered how much more that might cost. Now I just have to find a piece of property on which to put it once I'm able to escape this prison that they call California. 😏

Great video. Wolf is in my neck of the woods, first time hearing about them, not too bad.

[@kathleenwallace1165]

Thanks for looking for more affordable homes !

[@jonnygrizz]

I'm one of the people who suggested this so thank you for doing it. The Wolf model is a very nice 2-BR layout, all on one floor. The finishes look nice. But how quickly $97k jumps to $160k! Understandably, there's more expense than just the house itself. The Chez Flex and View both look to have the same layout. I dislike the first floorplan where the bathroom opens right on to the sofa. That's a big no! The one with the bathroom in the middle makes so much more sense. I just find it odd that you walk into the bedroom from the front door and would like it much better if they flipped the layout to the bedroom in the back and LR/kitchen in the front. This would be a good series to continue with other builders and other locations. Maybe even some

[@papermoontarot4219]

We got the Wolf Model F and lost the 2nd bedroom for a real open plan house. Their customer service is exceptional and our house is awesome (come on down to visit us in Langley WA anytime Kerry to show your viewers how people actually live in small homes!). 🏡

[@61Slughi]

Wolf Industries! They do everything. I took a tour of their facilities and within an hour I got an estimate the total costs were going to be if they handled everything. Unfortunately, my vacant lot had too many problems to put a home on. Still looking for a piece of land that will work better. Kerry, go down there and check out their operation. No hardball sales tactics. They really want to make it easy for you to get a home.

[@6EBEN9890]

Hi....can you pls say what problems your vacant lot posed? I am always wondering why more dont do this and i know sitework is one big issue but just curious what you have been through with your lot...:)

[@61Slughi]

@@6EBEN9890 My lot was an oddball 30' x 300'. Just enough width to get a model F house on it with all the setbacks. There was to be barely enough room to squeeze in a driveway on the side of the home with a one car garage behind the house. Found out later the lot was actually 28' wide. There was also 8 large trees that needed to be removed. One of the big bonuses was the property had power/water/sewer at the street. The plan now is finding a small lot in a nice place and then contact Wolf.

[@61Slughi]

@@6EBEN9890 The lot was a weird 30'x300' with a row of very large trees that would have to be removed to squeeze the house onto the property. The reason we tried to make it work was my parents bought it in the 70's and handed it down to me and all the hook-ups were already in the street. Wolf really made an effort to make it work. We'll try again but with a more doable property.

[@skeith1981]

Thank you for making this. I am actively looking for a housing solution, and I’m leaning towards buying a cabin shell and finishing it myself. I have researched every quality prefab possibility available to me in Indiana, and I’m still not completely satisfied….yet!

[@surgepro322able]

I'm from Westfield Indiana. I have driven down to Tennessee to visit Incredible Tiny Homes in Newport. Newport is near the Smoky Mountains National Park. We made our trip a vacation to see the park and took one day to tour ITH's models. They are very affordable starting as low as $25k up to $140k. Research their utube channel and their website. With Indiana's log cabin laws a tiny home can be located in someone's back yard as long as it is on a permanent foundation. I find ITH's models very exciting and they are not a scam. Hope this info helps!

[@jessicaschroyer7675]

Could you look for some in the Midwest? Like Salem Structures in Ohio. They have a cabin line.

[@JeremyAlexander-hd8cx]

I like that you're covering lower cost homes. For so many that's the whole reason for downsizing. Any word on companies that deliver around the Midwest. Specifically Illinois, Wisconsin, and Upper Michigan?

[@KerryTarnow]

I have some videos planned for that area later this month

You owe no one any apologies for covering the part of the continent you know best more than the other parts. Anything getting done in the Pacific Northwest that isn’t getting done elsewhere smells like opportunity for someone in those other places.

[@j.castino7585]

Thanks for the updated review. I've been to the Wolf Industries factory since I only live about 10 miles away. But I feel they are grossly over priced for the small home that they create and the price they quote is only good for delivery in my metro area or like within 20 miles. Additionally they are a small manufacturer that can't possibly offer better pricing based on stick building a home. When I think of prefab homes I think of a true mass produced home hopefully with good quality control and much better pricing!

[@JD-xo3xz]

Hi Kerry, Can you list solely the manufacturers that build with metal frames?

[@Dxn6alc03Belod7m1o]

The Wolfe one wouldn't even work for me as a cabin--not enough storage space. If I have to put a container or garage kit on just to have storage, I'd rather go for something bigger (that, yes, costs more). I'm downsizing my stuff, but I want more room to LIVE: an art studio, an exercise room plus a walk-in closet and my room. So, I'd need 2 of their E-models. I liked the one you showed a while back where you could add-on rooms as you needed. Also, not big on pressboard. The Chez do not have enough windows for my taste. Irrelevant because I too am in western Canada.

[@surgepro322able]

Incredible Tiny Homes is a modular certified manufacturer in eastern Tennessee They would be a manufacturer for the eastern part of the country. They build tiny homes that can be attached as your family or budget grows. When you would no longer need the extra space, they can be easily detached and reconfigured as a stand alone you could resell.

[@BeDoHave-so8nr]

ITH is only certified in TN, so their homes will not be approved out of state. They have yet to produce a modular home. They demand payment in full before starting the build on their tiny houses, and the same will be true for the modular homes, if they ever build one. I would never buy from a company that demanded payment in full before starting construction.

[@jasmondil]

Hi Kerry, I live in Northern BC Canada , I’m on a disability income so am very limited to options as far as housing goes. I do however have land in which I am able to place a PF home on. Really like the pre-fabs you showed today.(they look much sturdier then what is offered through Amazon)) A little out of my budget. So I’m finding that the prefabs are either well built but too expensive for my budget or they are very reasonably priced but leave me feeling very unsure of durability etc. keeping in mind I live in Northern Canada. Do you have a suggestion for a PF that is affordable and built for Northern exposure. I enjoy your program, thanks so much.

[@ru42112]

I'm one of the people that think the prefab homes are to expensive. There is a popular builder (Tiny) in Texas that's affordable except shipping cost to high. I can't find any prefab builder in the Midwest. 500 square feet is what I'm interested in.

[@longangelouya2874]

Homes of that size should never cost that much. It doesn't make financial sense. You may as well by a condo or a house for that price. Tiny homes used to be priced honestly until the market got corrupted by greedy people. Tiny homes use to give the less fortunate yet hard working American a chance. It's a matter of time before the Chinese built under $30k tiny homes will take over the market not because they are better, but because more people can afford them, and the need is greater.
