The point of a tiny house(to me) is an affordable housing alternative, but for $400k I could be something HUGE for less. I honestly do not see the point of paying anything over $100k for a tiny house. Anything above $100k and I'll go with a double wide for sure. Now that Boxabl has the option to add more modules to accommodate for a growing family, I think they have the right recipe for success.

Love your channel keep it coming Ellen, but I still don't understand the prefab thing unless you have a remote/private piece of land somewhere, I guess? The houses seem more expensive than a traditional, or at least what you get for your money when you compare a traditional on the open market at a similar price point, esp. considering the land is also included. A few seem to offer some interesting architecture, but most of them are boxes rolled in glitter with big price tags. I thought the main selling point of off-site constructions was cost savings, what am I missing?

One of the things I'm always curious about when it comes to these prefabs is, "Are they hurricane or earthquake rated?" Not only for whether the materials can stand up to it, but whether or not they can be solidly put into the ground to not get blown over. Some of these prefab companies need to set up shop in almost middle of nowhere places so their overhead can be lower and they don't have to charge the same as a 2000 sqft luxury site built home for something 800 sqft.

I think this a great review. However, when reading some of the comments I think some people may have missed some of the details. The roof is covered with integrated solar panels. I'm probably the only person leaving a comment that has actually been in one of the houses. Specifically the one in Seattle. It has been there off the grid for a couple of years now. The cost is so high because it's quality. The construction materials are truly space age. It is not like a cheesy double wide. Everything is custom and superlative. I would suggest that a deeper dive on the construction and options will help explain the cost. Keep in mind, I have a family member who has a new single wide that ended up well over 100k in the end and the quality is not there. Lastly, if you are in the Seattle area, go see it. I bet you will change your mind.

Normally, I'd be one to rip into these for the prices as well, but I can sort of see the value here. However, the price is still too high. If the price was cut about 25% across all the models, then you can sort of make arguments for them. When purchasing land and building a home in somewhat remote places; being in range of power can be problematic. However, the built in solar with up to 64kwh storage is a great solution assuming it's as advertised. This on top of not needing a foundation(where applicable) could save you a sizeable amount of money.

Yes, this company might want to bill themselves as a "Luxury" prefab home, but those prices are not even in competition with models in the same market. The smaller unit would typically go for 40-45k, and this is judging by other videos of models you have reviewed.

Great house features but anyone who can afford a $420,000 price tag would probably buy a full on house with 4-5 bedrooms, finished basement, home office, big wide open kitchen, nice backyard and more.

What are the pricing ? Transportation and set up cost. What are the requirements for the house to become functional!? Plumbing and heating and waste discharged?
@NormanF622 жыл бұрын
Yup. Do you need/want a foundation? Where are you planning to live? That’s where you have to do all the planning and set up stuff, which will be an extra cost, which people often overlook. With a stick built home, all of that’s already taken care of for you by the builder. Its not like you can order this online and just move in.

What about the sewage system? It's either your property's not off grid or you have to add the price of digging and installing a sustainable sewage just for the house (with the added expenses of emptying it every x months/years) 🤔

One of the greenest things in any house is insulation. Keep in mind these thin, glass houses are going to have exorbitant heating/cooling costs. They are attractive and would make for a fun air bnb.

For everyone complaining about the 417k+ price while its still not affordable it is average in price when you consider the cost of solar vs powerbill. Assuming you are using around 500 kwh a month or 6000 kwh a year which is common for 800 sq ft im assuming the solar system is at least a 4kw off grid system producing around 6000kw per year A 4kw system on grid costs around $15k before tax credit and $11,100 post tax credit. The average off grid system is around 3 times that of a grid tied one with the battery so I would assume around 35k for the total system value which will save money on power in most places. So essentially the real cost if comparing to a non off grid solar house is around $380k which for luxury tech for a 800 sq ft house is expensive but average price for luxury houses. Alot of luxury houses are built for around $400 per square foot which is what this house around. The problem however is resale value for manufactured homes. Is someone going to actually buy a 2 bed 800 sq foot smart home that needs a new battery after 10 years and is it going to be more then what it was purchased for? I personally agree that the price is too high currently but I also typically buy things that are middle to upper middle tier in quality and price. I think its less for investors and more for people that want an eco friendly high tech getaway for an apocalypse. This is not being marketed towards first time home buyers but rather upper class people that want a vacation property or retreat property.

You had some good point, but I my home is over 3,000 sq + solar powered, and I have land in a large city. The price of my home is nowhere close to that price. Sometimes the problem with warranty's is that you cant work on it yourself or it voids it or they only cover certain things. Starting price means we would probably pay way more. Probably would have to pay taxes on it. Would definitely need to by land get approval to that there.

@richardavery2244 Жыл бұрын
Hello, Terry after reviewing the other comments with regards to the quality, design, options and standard features of these homes, their main problem is the prices of their largest model, however you did state clearly that they are a high end prefabricated home builder. People pause a minute and think “ Prefabricated homes are for the affordable market Only “ Wrong, they cover the entire market of homes from $50k to $800k! In this case your audience got confused because the smallest unit was quoted at $60k then you jumped rather quickly to $400k😂 maybe you should have stated “Pricing for this manufacturer can vary greatly between affordability to silly rather quickly when we get to their larger unit”, that way your followers will be mentally prepared for a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom 800 sqft prefabricated home priced at $412,000?😂

wow ..thank you ..that's my area too (NW). I love the 2 bedroom to use one of the bedrooms for office and guest room. Good point about the pizza.in that kind of oven, lol. Maybe the safe speed limit was computed by someone with really far vision....as who knows ..if these homes last for decades or even one decade what we might have by then for vehicles and how fast they might actually go. lol I would get that one or two bedroom, if i had the funds to do that and i think it's well worth the cost for a brand new and totally self sufficient home . Utilities on most homes is not only costly but will be rising and what is it worth if the utilities companies fail for some reason like a storm or quake, and all the while, if you are in this home, your home's heat, cooling , cooking and refrigerator and other energy for electricity is still functioning (what's that worth? besides cost of alternative energy and self sufficiency which is quite costly too to set up. And then how much more is it worth having your home hold up in high winds, quakes, and storms?. I can't say for sure w/o seeing it in person and getting more of a feel for it from the inside (and what materials it's made out of it) , but if all that checked out for me i would not find issue with the price .If i won lottery or had increase in income i would not hesitate on these . The way rents are soaring (some doubled where seniors were housed) and costs of homes too...i could do way better with one of these than to continue renting and paying utilities or heat and electric .
