3D home printing has matured enough as a technology to be viable. Yet despite the global housing shortage, chronic to so many countries, has yet to take off. Here the $37,600 price includes finished rooms inside. The company is aiming to build on cheap land in Japan’s smaller cities. They specifically mention targeting remote and work-from-home workers as customers.
This way of doing things could work for 10’s of millions of other people around the world, especially as starter homes. The pandemic accelerated a permanent shift to WFH for many people. If some of them had a choice between never being able to afford a home in big cities, but but getting on the property ladder with this option, it seems obvious to me millions of people around the world would choose it.
450 in an area where land is 50k is expensive as fuck, have you gotten quotes?
Lots here is 100-150k and I got a rough estimate of 250-300k for a 4br/2ba with a full basement and 2 car garage
I’ve haven’t but family has. A few builder were looking at roughly 400-450 for a small 1.5k slab home without finishing.
without outing yourself, where are you located(roughly) I’m always curious if a lot of our high cost comes down to geography/laws/red tape. Im in Northern Minnesota.
I don’t mind because my living plans changed drastically - I was looking to build 30-45 minutes outside of Chicago. Not a super rich suburb but one with a highly rated school system
