[@waylandetheridge1875]

Well, when I lived in Puerto Rico on a military base, our homes were made like Flintstone homes. They were concrete with rebar. That’s the walls the ceiling and floor. My first year there we went through a major hurricane, which did a lot of damage to other civilian wooden structures on the island, no harm to any of the houses on our base. We even had a tree fall right on the roof and heard it fall on the roof, but no issues with the house not a drop of water.

Welcome to a third world premium neighborhood, from Mexico to the south, this is the way homes are built, I don't know how they are insulating those concrete boxes but l have been inside concrete homes in the summer and they are literally pizza ovens, concrete retains the heat from the whole day and release it during the night toward the inside. But beyond the massive concrete structure and the same look in the whole community here is the tricky and shaddy factor that never is realizing, they are selling you the half of land of a traditional american home since this homes are closer one to each other because they are being able to skip the minimum setback required for traditional homes where you will find a minimum 10' separation for fire, these homes have only a one car garage, a third world backyard and forget about being able to modificate the floor plan or make an addition in the future. Americans should reject this greedy home developers, and y personally would never ever buy one house like this.

As far as $500,000+ cost: Housing prices vary greatly around the country. Where I live a 5 bedroom, 3-4 bath, new construction would be about 3000 sq ft. The estimated construction cost around here is about $200/sq ft, so about $600,000. Factory built homes aren't new. back in the 1980s my Uncle, an architect, and his partner built complete wall and roof panels in a factory setting then transported them to the site and used cranes and contractor crews to set them in place. The construction was conventional wood frame; wiring and plumbing was in place and just needed to be hooked up. It eventually failed because they didn't have their own crew to assemble. The building trades fought them for fear of losing their jobs. Their designs weren't all the same and they offered many options for floor plans and sizes.
