I’m afraid the term affordable housing will soon be unaffordable housing… these days you can’t have anything below 100k. Well, you can but there’s so many factors involved, land cost, prohibitive laws that limit which type of housing you’re allowed to built. Utility companies don’t want you to be off grid because they want to enslave you to a monthly bill plus taxes, and so many other factors. It’s truly sad and things need to change..

If you live on a fixed income or work remotely, I highly recommend moving to a rural area that has no (or a low) minimum home size, lax or no building codes, and few/no inspections. Outside of the east and west coasts, such places are fairly common when you get far outside of metro areas. This will help you immensely in building a home cheaply, and many such places are also very peaceful and quiet, and have cheaper land. Also, it's cheaper just to get a home built conventionally (though small) from an existing home plan because labor costs are low there.

I disagree. I live in rural Colorado and it's outrageously high to build here. Labor costs are high, and it's almost impossible to find laborers. Getting materials is very expensive to ship to our area. Make sure you can find water BEFORE you build, having to haul water is a pain. Solar isn't working as well because our days are cloudier than they ever used to be, so a generator is a must.

I looked at structures like these to use as an office/small A/V studio but went with a used RV instead. For $8,900 I got a 2005 32ft 5th wheel that's in great condition inside and out, has a kitchen & bathroom, a master bedroom that will convert to a nice little studio, ducted a/c & heat and plenty of room to write, work, take meetings, etc. I don't see any way that could be beat for the price range. The bathroom was definitely a factor in my decision because I've done the 'outside the house' studio solution before and I got really tired of having to run back to the house any time I needed to use the toilet, particularly during those late night work sessions. I've seen people take these and just live in them, with some adding siding around them to make them look more like a standard tiny house. For me, another great thing about it is that I can easily move the whole thing if we ever need to move to another house or if I need to be on location for prolonged periods of time.

At up to $200 per sq ft for some Tiny Homes and small Mobile homes marketed today we are about ten years past the time we should be reconditioning and remodeling 70s and 80s units. As they are all built in factories, the systems for each type are based on box building and Truss roof sections. Moving walls for changing use of space is relatively simple and low cost as much of the materials can be reused. Buying a Park Model at auction or tax sale for as little as $500 and doing the work with just casual labor/handyman is very doable but I feel should be sponsored by each state in some sort of apprenticeship programs...Arizona and Florida have thousands of these units and many parks that are deteriorating before our eyes. A state or federal program could upgrade the units, teach Craft Trades and supply low cost housing and even homeless housing at a fraction of a Farm Home program cost as well as a chance of getting it through the Kochgress...

Other then that we just were able to build without any hassles. We built with no banks involved, just cash, and my husband being in the building business just over saw all the construction. Its a beautiful custom built brick home. Of course it did cost quite a bit more then these small homes. It is also a lot larger.

I feel like the consumer base for the prefabs are ignorant to the fact that its actually more costly, but seems "easier" at the outa-box level. You would get a better local price by hiring someone in on the foundation/material/layout/build because they would be the same people from the preplanning to the finished product, rather than one company for this, one for that and having to que them in on all the project details since they wouldnt be familiar like the local all in crew would be.

Now compare this to local contractor that might find some plans for house online and will try to source different lego pieces for it. Since contractor doesn't deal with purchasing raw materials. He will not be able to find best price or best supplier that has these materials. Contractor will also not be anywhere closely experienced with manufacturing lego pieces from raw materials.

Anything that can be done to reduce the cost of housing is welcomed, I don't want to dump on that, but here's the thing: We don't have a 'housing affordability' issue. We have a 'land affordability' issue. In certain situations could something like this help, absolutely, and I believe prefab will play a huge role moving forward, but it's still, on it's own, less than a band aid. And good luck with zoning, at least in most municipalities within Canada (As a secondary residential structure)
@reesaserik37592 жыл бұрын
You hit the nail on the zoning issue. Not every city will allow any type of mobile home. A lot of the residential communities also have a size limit in the fact that these would not be allowed because they are small. They are less than the minimal required square footage. For cities the goal is taxes. They force you to build within a square foot range, limit the number of buildings you can have on the property and in some, even limit your choice of exterior covering -- requiring it be brick and no wood or vinyl or hardy siding, as an example. This way everyone living in that residential community essentially has the same thing. Now, when they want to squeeze more money out of you by raising taxes, they to what I call a blanket raise. You get a letter in the mail stating that your property value has gone up and so they will raise your taxes. But they never sent anyone out to appraise or value your home. So it is a false rise in property value. But because of 'codes' and zoning rules, they know basically what you have and so everyone gets the letter -- no matter the condition of your property. Just a money squeeze.

On cost per square foot Prefabs are MORE expensive than stick built options. These things are not exactly "cheap". The base model, an 100 sq ft empty room, might look affordable. But pricing a simple 300+ sq ft model with bathroom and kitchette ads up to around $90k. That's without shipping, permitting, laying a slab or foundation, connecting to utilities...and you still need a contractor to do all of this if you're not willing to manage it all on your own... all of which could add anywhere from $30-$50k to the build.... maybe more depending on where it's installed. Even if used as a rental unit, that can mean many years before they offer a return on investment.

I like this idea because u build the post foundation and floor......then u mount the metal ribs to the floor and erect them. U screw the metal cladding to the ribs to keep the walls straight. U then build interior room walls, plumb, wire, add HVAC, etc. I priced a 30by24 ft floor plan for around twenty thousand dollars! That's half the house! I figure if I finish it for twice the kit price, maybe I can get a two floor hose, land, septic, solar of system to get off grid, rain capture for water,......all for under one hundred thousand dollars!!!!!!....

this has really taken off... they even offer things like this in Europe. ADU's are extremely popular and a homeowner can easily convert a simple shed to a studio or workshop... I have a 8 X 12 that came with my place and I have it insulated with heat and AC... its just a workshop, but really is nice to have it outfitted with electric service. its amazing what you can think up with a shed...

Kerry please call and do an actual meeting. I was shocked at the price from end to finish. The final estimate was 400k with the pro builder. Mind you my local modular builder was 440 for twice the space.

We live in Las Vegas, where we are getting quotes for a one to two bedroom "guest" house 750 sq home, is being quoted @ $200,000.00 Which is the price I paid for a 2,500 sq home 5 years ago!! So having an option to have a pre-fab which is using materials which are resistant to heat and we can put solar too why the heck not!!

I agree also. Homeowners are being used to farm Solar Power.... I believe this should be given to home owners and New homes being built. If houses are being used as solar farms, that only makes sense. The Government should give land to make Solar farms. I'am waiting till they do become free. All in all It is experimental and I realize everything of solar energy is in a transitional state. Like anything new that is introduced to us. Remember when a regular house phone long distant call use to cost big bucks and people really relied on that communication. Then remember how much it use to cost to make a cell phone call long distance, expensive, now i can make a long distance call for basically free. Now the solar power cost a little fortune now. I'm going to wait for a while to get a solar panel, when its cheaper or when its cost nothing in the future lol.... When it is built into the house In the future, like how regular electricity is today. In the mean time. I would love to research and invest in a couple or a few these portable solar power panels units that stores solar energy. Just like them old cell phones all the way to the newest cell phone today, they have come a long way and always continue to get better.
