Kit Homes Pros and Cons

[salvadorpalma]

In other words, not a pros and cons video, but an ad for your company.

this is a better video than that " why container homes are a SCAM". at the very least you're doing the pros and cons of a kit home. Also, this video is short and simple. I learned the pros and cons in so little time thanks to you.

When I've read about kit houses, like those from Sears and Alladin, going back to the turn of the 20th century, it always struck my when a daunting task it would be to unpack all that lumber, read the instructions, put each piece in its place and address any pieces that might be missing or mis-cut. Cutting most of it myself might actually be easier. Something that came in already-assembled sections small enough to be carried by one or two people would probably be a lot easier to build. Or, a house made of large pre-completed panels lowered by a crane and bolted together would probably save almost as much money. I'd think the ideal arrangement would be be prefabricated modules for the kitchen, bathrooms and detailed but common assemblies like dormers, combined with panels and on-site framing to take care of the areas that needed more customization.

Hi! First off love your videos! I was wondering if u had other kit plans on your site?

You have ONE plan. How are you comparing this to what's out there?

They usually have 24 inch on center, to save $30 or so. They seldom have the right amount of nails or materials and often not the best of things.

I didn’t know they still made kit homes.

[mmaks]

Thank you for the information. Very helpful

[brayden]

Do any I need any permits to build a precut house? If so, what are the permits?

[autumnmoon]

Is it just the one design? The city won’t let me build unless it’s between 1300 and 2000sqft. Is this house in that range?

[squeekhobby]

Great info. What is your opinion on pole barn kits. We will finish with wood seathing just like a traditional home

[JesusChristIsLord]

Look me in the eyes when you speak to me!lol

[jesseplz]

Do the kits on openbookbuilder have a seismic design for california?

[stevetaxpayer]

All kit homes I've ever seen are far more expensive than traditional stick built home construction.
