That will be exciting for both you and all your viewers to tour the finished home. That was a real stroke of luck for you and all of us that you ran into him!

LOVE LOTS OF WINDOWS!1 GOOD CALL!, NICE CONNECT WITH JORDAN, ILL BE WATCHING(AS USUAL)4 THE TOUR IN THE FALL!

Love that Connect Homes has such a intensive quality control.

I really like this video. One of your best yet. I tell my architecture students to watch this series on KZfaq. The production system is impressive. I like prefabs built indoors. Your description of the process is very interesting. Excellent.

What a stroke of luck in addition to your full view of their build stations. Great interview with the customer, including comparing build costs in his locale. Looking forward to your walk-through of their unit in Sun Valley!

I like this home. It seems to have everything you need and not feel claustrophobic. Thanks, Kerry.

Best PreFab Home so far .. and in the US!

WOW!!!! This is a GREAT design. High ceilings!! Super bonus points. The channel-first interview, fantastic - plus the follow-up. Stupendous. This is a peak moment on your channel. So cool. !!!

Customer interview. 🏅🏅🏅 Loved the factory walkthrough Kerry. 😎

Very cool and it was great to hear you talk to a customer. I can’t wait to see that video in the fall. Cheers!

Cool! Awesome video! So excited to see your follow up tour.

I liked this factory tour, because it showed the barebones, and the models were in styles that I like. 👍🙂👍

Thanks, Kerry! My favorite past time, the 2hour afternoon nap, could be accomplished with appropriate floor to ceiling draperies to cover all that glass.

All non profits and other builders should pay attention to this company the shelter series is special that could be a modern hostel great review as usual!!!!!

Hey Terry, Berry, Zerry, whatever, have you thought of expanding to more alternate building methods? Lego style, 3-d printing, etc...? You have the following to do anything you want.

Great post, Kerry! If it weren't for your dedication, funding and willingness to travel to these sites, we would not have benefited from a candid customer review. I look forward to to follow-up review when you get to go to Sun Valley!👍🏼😉

It turns out the prices for these things is relatively obscene…to the point of being comical! But the designs are interesting as well as the video, and they’re always worth a chuckle when the prices are revealed!

Quit watching this video when I discovered they were 100k+

They can build whole house in 14 days and it's taken the crew my landlady hired 6+ days to replace one wall😮

fine looking modular designs.. looking forward to the interview in the fall. Thanks for sharing!

Jordan spending that “start up company capital” like a boss 😂

Quality all the way from the top of the organization to final products. Thanks for the tour

Thanks for the tour 🎉

Thanks, Kerry.

Wow! That’s impressive! The designs and processes are getting better, more efficient, and hopefully at some point, cheaper 😊! Did the customer ever actually say if the prefab build was cheaper per ft.? I can’t wait for its completion and and a follow up tour. Great job, as always, on the video. Thank you for posting.

Those are gorgeous

Very efficient Great look👍

thanks kerry

Thanks!

good video. very informative! thank you

That looked real good!!

"...kinda like a Calzone." Kerry... your informative content about prefab homes is valuable enough, but I am going through some tough, stressful stuff and your self-effacing, humorous delivery... is often a day-changer for me!!! Thanks for what you are doing!!!

Whoa!!! I really like these

Really enjoy these deeper dives Kerry. Thanks! (As an aside, we've always been curious why anything intended to be moved would use drywall. It seems like it cracks easily (I say this while looking at cracks here from years of exposure to earthquakes in Cali in a structure built in place and not intended to be moved), ...aren't there better options than drywall for interior walls and the joints connecting them?)

Great Stuff ! Cool 3 room emergency housing unit "Like a calzone"🤣 Can't wait for the follow up house tour!

Nice video. Thanks.

Very impressive..!

I love this… ❤️

Thanks.

Price of all these that you show weekly is usually about 3xs what most people would be willing to pay and that does not include shipping most likely or set up.

I love it.... and good pricing

Loved it wow things are getting much better on the home front isn’t it Kerry ?

I’d be interested if you find various people who have bought prefab homes and break down the total cost. Land, plumbing, electrical, cost of prefab etc. Everything that contributes to the total cost is still a bit of a mystery to me.

Sun Valley is the land of extra zeros. It's nuts. Half the homes in the town 15 min. south of SV for sale IN 2018 was were for over a million each.

Can you do a follow-up on the plans this Jordan is working on? His build looked amazing!

The home models look amazing. But, I was not expecting that kind of pricing when I just went to their website. Very beautiful homes though.

Love you so much, Kerry, but this is like watching cars getting built. Yup, I bet the architecture and engineering folks are ecstatic but it's a bit snoozy for me. I prefer seeing the finished product with just a bit of a dive into the reputation of the builders. But thanks for going on the road, as always❤.

Must be nice,mahalo

Very nice to see one that they're putting together to create a large house. Did they give you an estimated date as to when it might be finished so you can get that tour he promised ?

Thanks Kerry, Is it possible to have Customized design ? I mean the clients to be able to change the design of home ,during ordering process?

Curious how they're able to ship without the drywall cracking in the transport delivery process?

How do I find out which manufacturers of prefab homes build to the IRC? Thanks!

Looks perfect for a guild navagator. 😂

@Kerry Tarnow have you ever heard of Volferda? I just saw a vid on it and thought it was pretty interesting; just passing it on.

They're beautiful but.. what happens when a tornado comes around? Are they any different than a regular mobile home? Or are they built more sturdy to where they might be able to last through one?

Impressive, although I would prefer a sloping roof to avoid flat roof leaking problems later on.

It would be nice to see a step by step build.

Interesting 💜🐬🚘🏡🎶

He mentioned it's 30% cheaper then 500 per sq ft. So it's about 380 per sq foot. Pretty penny. 160 grand for one average sized 400 sq ft tiny home

Looks beautiful, but with all the glass and steel, wonder what the average R value of exterior walls is. My guess is Rs are quite low and may not even meet local codes in some regions unless glass is triple glazed .

LOVE IT ! ,,,,, If it costs less than $ 75,000

Do you have a searchable list of companies with links by chance??

I want to see the home complete on site with final price.

the company is like a calzone!

So, what is the estimated sq ft build price? The customer you interviewed made it sound like these units won’t be within reach for most folks…

Maybe it's just because i grew up in the a city but.... That's a lot of glass. Prying eyes can see EVERYTHING that's in there. Wouldn't dream of putting that place in most of the areas that need affordable housing the most

So these are moved to each "station" during the build? Seems like a lot of shuffling around.

I'm shocked. Kerry actually made it through an outro without getting cut off? 😆

Yeah in Palo alto its 1500 a sq foot

Looked up this company in hopes to take a tour in Phoenix, however, I'm guessing this is only a production plant and not able to tour or have a show room floor/sales.

I would love to see Jordan's home actually being erected on its final site.

👍

Not including the site work or the lot you’ll need to purchase it’s the same as buying a new build from a developer if not more actually.

In olden days manufacturing on an assembly line with prefab parts dramatically reduced the cost of a product and made it affordable for the average person. Think Ford model T. Welccome to the brave new world where that same concept doubles or triples the cost and is sold to only the most cost unconscious among us. A pity really, as having an off grid prefab would be a nice thing for so many. Off to the tennaments with the 98 percenters.

The prefab homes you want are just as expensive or more expensive than homes built on site.

All nice but a lot of municipal codes will not allow for housing like this with in city limits.

Maybe one day we will see economy of scale reflective in prices 😞

I love these Prefab homes but if the price isn’t right it’s not worth it. Some people are desperate for a place to stay and are homeless right now. Average young person or a single parent or family of two can’t afford that price . The interest rates are through the roof on traditional homes and some are stuck renting apartments. My husband and I are stuck renting an apartment for five years now after selling our home before the pandemic . I have lupus and had an Aneurysm in January of this year my husband is paying all the bills it’s rough right now. We would like to buy some land in Mississippi and purchase one of these homes if they affordable. If the price is 100,000 or above that’s too expensive. The builder might as well donate as a non profit to combat homelessness around the world. The idea is awesome but may need to be donated. I’m sure a business like that could get the Government funding because the project is helping with a solution. Or the Government could partner with maker of these buying them and providing special financing for people with low incomes and make neighborhoods of the Prefab homes…..

I walked the model at the home show too and the price is wayy too high for the product offered. I get that modular homes are new but the model was a mobile home with extra windows and in no way justified the price. It was well over $100k for the 1bed plan and that wasn't even delivered or land cost. Btw, the buyer " just happening to be at the factory" is kind of cheesy man. Obviously it was set up to market their homes and that's ok, but just say that up front. We're not dumb. As more companies ramp up production, more cost-efficient processes will keep the overall cost down and make products like these in the future something interesting for sure.

Kinda like a calzone😂

300k for a storage container is wild 🥴🥴

1:04 - let's get a tape measure and center the outside light between the door & window 🤔 2:12 - 6x soap dishes in the shower? no one needs that, unless you're a rock-climber 2:54 - beautiful factory & assembly line, but there's still plenty space between the units... seems like the buyer will pay the price for the "inefficient " assembly space? 7:51 - 500 USD/ qft - that can't be right!!! what???

I like the idea of smaller and more economical homes, but all the windows make them look like store fronts. I'd rather have some privacy.

Can a person actually buy one, though? Have been watching you for about 18 months and have only seen one place where a person can buy one of these places.

Connect Homes Are so Expensive compared to competitors

When did you shoot this? Pretty sure that's my house on the line. Did Jerry take you on the tour? Great video!

Great option for rich states, but too expensive for regular states

Ummmm nope....i doubt they stay in business long with the prices i saw on there website

The shelter unit is so small that you have to go outside to change your mind.

Why are we always reluctant to quote price ranges????

Most cool, er, hot, I mean, AZ 'n all, Tempe, really hot, aw, y'know what I'm sayin'....

The building looks like the Boxabl building . I give them a D for originality.

and yet the housing market will still be in crisis because of artificial inflation.

100k is too much for this

To much glass...

100k? 😂😂😂😂

Very expensive - brush up on your Spanish and check out VMD homes

But on the model shown looks like prison cell

MITE AS WELL BUY A PROPER HOUSE...THESE PRICES ARE GETTING OUT OF ORDER...THE CATCH WAS ...UP IN NO TIME AND CAN BE MOVED...BUT FOR A 160.000...THATS TAKEIN THE FUCKIN PISS...

Way too many windows to be energy efficient
