He doesn't look trustworthy
He is full of excrement This process has been around
This is the solution for rapidly building houses to end homelessness.
I live in bath, like 15 minutes away from wapak. So crazy to see new stuff like this happening in our small corner of ohio
That house is way too expensive. I am not buying an "experimental" house fora $40K discount. The dried surface of that poured house is fugly as heck. I'd want a smooth wall that can be painted, have art hung, etc. What happens when the owner wants to do a renovation down the road? Nope.
But then how will the government and the ultra rich force us to pay them high taxes on our homes if the homes are worth less than a car?
Hell, what's next? Are people gonna come up with some system to let average citizens use untouched land that has no valuable resources or natural beauty as their own private land instead of paying some random MF who's never been to the land, doesn't want the land, doesn't care about the land, and just wants your money? Ridiculous.
If you live here, you're gonna work, and you're gonna work for very wealthy men so they can use that money to build things for other people that you don't know AND so they can use it to retire the next 5 generations of their entire bloodline and give them the opportunity to play God with your bloodline. "Cheap housing" 🙄
The walls are the only thing "printed"
Clown world
And more lost jobs to technology
So, where is it? Wapak, but where?
This has been available for
Years. Cost is still high.
160$k to about the cost of one car payment? Is your car worth 3 million dollars or what?!
*a very expensive car payment
Concrete is one of the leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions. Concrete amounts for more CO2 than the aviation industry. These are not sustainable houses by any metric.
40k diffrence? If that's the case, people are gonna just build what known to work.
40k is all I'm saving 😂😂😂😂 joke
Stick frame is cheaper.
A $150,000 car payment. That is some car! The walls look like shit after a night out. I could not live with those walls.
That house could only last a few years before one earthquake cracks it in half😂😂😂 no thanks, I wouldn't want something that has no guarantee for only a 40k difference. Hope these guys dont spend all their money cause they're going to get sued in the near future.
Is the 200k house made of concrete or wood?
If it is wood, I'd go for the concrete home : I'm not a fan of the wooden houses in the US.
Isn’t concrete a lot cheaper than wood?
Does that mean it’s 1/2 price because it only took half the labor, no
So instead of crews and materials, what am I actually spending money on here?
Naw bro. Zoning and planning won't have it less they homis get contracts and liberties are somehow leased. This homeless crisis is synthetic, designed to expand the governments permitting of liberties.
That's literally the ugliest thing I've ever seen. The inside of the walls look absolutely horrible. All the crooked lines all the lumps… what are you talking about guy? 😅😅😅😅
Way too expensive. It’s supposed to be cost effective but it’s not. It’s a rip off.😊
Yeah, no thanks
Is it biodegradable at some point? The amount of cement on the planet is more than any other man made product.
It's taking away more jobs like self checkout. Though it's a cool idea. But without rebar I have to wonder how stable it is. Plus you still have all the electrical, pipes, fixtures. The kitchen and bath would still be the same price. And there is where a lot of cost comes in.
Thats only a 26000 house its not eorth sny more thsn thst and your stuoid if you buy snything bigger for much more thsn 26000
Homes in California need to cost $160,000.
And the GREEDY companies will find ways to raise the prices and make this just as expensive so you can BARELY afford even this. Just so they can own 3 / 4 or 10 more YACHTS.
The car prices these days do seem like a bit of a tall tale, don't they? They're hyping it up way too much. If I'm shelling out $160,000 for a home, I wouldn't even consider that option. Just drop the price to $40,000, and you'll attract more potential buyers. Can't wait for a possible housing crisis to scoop up some bargains after selling off a few properties in 2025. Thinking about delving into stocks as a backup plan. Any tips on the best timing for these investments? Made some good profits from trading, but I'm wary of the market's volatility and the chance of a dead cat bounce. Any insights into why this market phenomenon occurs?
Hmmm…😅
$160,000 car payment? In ohio? Look out NY and LA. We got a level classy you all don't even know lol
A Maserati car payment !
That would stay really cool in summer.
Like living in a cave with windows, but
I'm not seeing any wire reinforcement.
The price of a car? Are we talking Tesla Ferrari Lamborghini??? WTF
For the price of a car payment????😮😮what kinda car u drivin????😮😮
Yeah, that’s cool and all but what about all the jobs it takes
Awesome 👌 thank you ❤
BlackRock has entered the chat..
Aside from not trusting that home, the price is still WAY too high for them to be boasting about this. If I'm paying $160,000 for a home, I sure as hell wouldn't consider this.
Make the home $40,000 and you'll change a lot of minds.
builders are scammers. 400,000? yea maybe 80,000
So I save $40k for a home of the same size? I feel the savings in labor should allot for more savings. Most definitely with the finished product being not the same as a typical home.
How much for a tiny home?
wouldn't trust that house with my life
For the price of a car?? Complete lie😅😅
