    This house was a model home on display so it was showing all of the upgrade options that are available. the builders will typically use the garage as the sales office so if they were working on a sale then that's probably why he didn't go into the garage.

      So what it’s still better than anything they can aspire to. I noticed they didn’t look at the home in Texas that was a model home and affordable on the lower end of 200 thousand or a little more with upgrades. They probably picked this one on purpose to avoid the other one because it would’ve shown what a poop hole they live in. Don’t let them off the hook by making them feel better. They don’t deserve it they make fun of us to in their own way. I remember when these two first started out they use to be real sarcastic. They’ve cleaned it up because the money has started rolling in off of us. Americans please stop supporting these Brits on RUclips. They make money at our expense and they really don’t like us and it’s not fair that they mock us behind our back while eating off of our support.

    My wood framed home is only 83.5 square meters (not counting the unfinished basement), over 100 years old, 2 beds, one bath. Granted, I'm on the border of DC, but it was appraised at just over $500,000 (about £466,000). It's all about location.

    • @rich7447
      @rich7447 25 дней назад

      I'm about 40 miles from downtown DC on the Maryland side. The small homes around us have a high cost per square foot due to the land value. Most of the new builds around us are in the $250 to $350 per square foot. When smaller homes do come on the market they are usually purchased by a developer, torn down and a larger home is built. It's a hard sell to get a buyer to pay $500+ per square foot, so the land cost has to be spread across more square footage.

    I moved to Katy, Texas 2 years ago and live in a house similar to this one, but not as big or as many bedrooms and without the special upgrades like wood on the ceiling and the special lighting and other upgrades. It's about 3,000 square feet and is still a very impressive house and we paid about $420,000 for it. It's got the same "look" as this one. The nice exterior, modern look, granite and quartz counters, nice cabinetry, large windows, top of the line appliances, etc. The main difference is my house is 4 bedrooms and 3 baths and this one is 6 bedrooms and 4.5 baths plus a big gameroom downstairs. That's where most of the price difference comes from. This is a huge house.

    As for the bathroom window, you can pull down the shade, but if you want frosted or stained glass for a little natural light, you can have them put in.
    Since this is a model home, the clear window allows shoppers to see the landscape. It can always customized to your liking, like my cousin did.

    The upgrade in this house is probably about $100K - $150K, and then when you add the furniture, this house will cost about $800K including the front elevation of the house. Your property tax will be based on $800K. That is why many buys the basic model and do the upgrades later. Property tax will be based on the purchase of the basic house.

      That varies. My parents modified their home and that increased the value which increased the property tax quite a bit. Some places do reassess of property taxes. My mom's is now more than double what it was at the time of purchase because they made improvements (that's in Virginia). In NH property tax can be totally insane and very subjective depending on the assessor. Not much else is taxed and no state income tax so property tax is ridiculous

    Model homes do look great because they are a "model". What you buy won't have as nice of a lawn or landscaping in front or back. And they will also cheap out on other portions of the home. As someone who was house-hunting until late last year, they make the homes faster than they can sell in the Houston area which means you don't necessarily get much of a choice when it comes to what is in the house. You can add later if the Homeowners Association allow it. Katy is an annoyingly huge city (not suburb) west of Houston where everyone from California moved to. This in turn drove up housing prices and just created more congestion. It takes like an hour to drive from Katy to Houston and it's only a 25 mile drive. LOL

    The external architecture gives a nod to the Prairie house style created by the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright. He was from Spring Green. WI (Taliesin east). He blew open the stuffy Victorian and opened it up. You will find lots of nods to Prairie style all over the state especially in Madison. Monona terrace in Madison, WI was designed by him as well. He created the Usonian style of homes that sometimes gave a nod back to his earlier Prairie style architecture features but not always. One of his most famous modern houses is Fallingwater in Pennsylvania. Sorry for the ramble. lol Also that's NOT a chef's kitchen and it's a small, yet decent kitchen.

    $650K is the base price. As this house sits its probably closer to $850K. I used to live in Houston. Live in Dallas now. Houston is not tornado alley, but does get hurricanes. Dallas is in tornado alley, I've lived here for 28 years and have never seen one. What's crazy is when he was mentioning the Houston-DFW-San Antonio-Austin corridor. I couldn't help but think that entire area is about the same size as your wonderful country. My husband and I go on cruises out of Galveston frequently, we drive from DFW (Dallas-Fort Worth), it's about a 6 hour drive when there are no traffic back-ups. We never leave the state of Texas. There is just so much space here, it's so much easier to build these big sprawled out homes. You definitely don't see homes like this in New York City, where land is premium and there isn't anywhere left to spread out to. England does have expansive countryside and communities such as these could branch out to create some suburbs such as these. Katy, TX is a suburb town northwest of Houston. If Brits were more willing to have that commute like Americans do, places like these could be more common. Since so many companies have implemented work from home policies since Covid hit and they realized they could get rid of high overhead costs of keeping a huge office space, the suburban dream has become far more efficient and people can branch even further away from city centers without compromising the bigger income that comes with living in a big city. Gonna sound like the true Texan I am right here and say, y'all should start the wave of luxury spreads in the countryside and build one of these master planned communities. I bet many Brits would jump at a chance to own an American style home. Go for it, it could be your entry into great wealth in Great Britain! 😊

    Here a mud room has an exterior entrance and is where you can come in and take off your muddy clothes from being and working outside.
    There's usually a mud sink that's where you can rinse off very dirty objects etc
    And maybe a shower as well.
    With few exceptions, I would rather restore a well-constructed old home than a wood frame made of new construction materials.
    Also, I'd rather have a smaller house and more land. Then you guarantee that even if the area is built up around you you'll still have privacy.
    The bathroom window has a mirrored effect that means anyone on the outside can't see inside but you can see outside.
    When he says it's a seller's(edited because of an oops)market it is absurdly so.
    People are bidding tens of thousands higher than the asking prices and still getting outbid.
    Then you're already upside down in your mortgage because you just paid more than the house and property are worth.

    And YES tornadoes definitely go through there. A good-sized tornado hit a neighborhood in Katy just a month ago. When i lived in Cypress, a tornado blew the windows out of our brick home and caused damage to the shingles. Plus, I've been through numerous hurricanes and hailhouston and surrounding areas are on a Bayou, creeks, and very low land.

    He said the homes in the neighborhood 'start' at $600k..this one is probably $800+. It's a beautiful home, no doubt, but practically speaking, it' expensive to cool and heat a two-story vaulted home due to all the dead air space. This home would require two HVAC units working overtime to stabilize the temp of this home. We built a similar style home (on a smaller basis) in the DFW area and the bills ran us off after two years. Moved to a one story, ranch style home, same square footage, and our electric bill was half that of "the big house". Just a caveat for anyone looking to buy .. then again, if you can afford this home, a $1500 a month electric bill may not be an issue.

    Hey Pops. I looked at so many model homes before I bought mine back in 2005. Really you would be spoiled for choice. These builders usually have 5 or more floor plans to choose from. Varying lot sizes and 2 to 3 car garages. You can also choose your carpets, flooring, cabinets, appliances. Here in the Seattle area we even had the choice of air conditioning or not since you really don't need it much and these new homes have energy efficient windows, and doors. There are new housing developments everywhere up here. Seattle's economy has been booming for decades. You'd be welcome up here and it might even a little like the UK because of it similar climates. Don't expect Houston prices up here though lol.. I think that that house in Seattle would cost closer to a million dollars. Salaries are much higher up here though so it sort of balances out.

    Personally I do NOT care for the floor plan at all and following this guy around I see alot of odd shaped rooms which means wasted square footage. When he first walked in you see a vaulted ceiling that is part of the wasted square footage that you have to pay for and looks to be over 2 stories high and who is going to enjoy any "art work" you hang on the walls when you end up breaking your neck trying to view them and on top of that cleaning the walls and ceiling needs a specialized company who can bring in scaffolding. Of coarse this is just my opinion though.

    The door at the top of the stairs will go to an unfinished area that holds the HVAC air handlers and possibly the hot water heaters (although they are often in the garage in Texas).
    This would be a typical size for a new build outside of a designated "growth corridor" here in Maryland. The difference would be that land costs are much higher here and we have basements. This makes it possible to get 5,000+ square feet of living space out of a home similar to this 3,600 square foot home. We have 4,200 square feet above grade and an additional 2,400 square feet finished in a walk up basement.
    We lived in the Dallas area at one time and housing costs were very reasonable.

    Houston doesn’t get very many tornadoes, they are more tropical in climate and they get hurricanes usually, but not bad. However this past spring I had relatives in Houston and they did get caught in their first Houston tornado. Tornado alley is typically Kansas, Oklahoma is the number one spot for most tornadoes I believe in the world, and then north Texas like Dallas. Houston is south east Texas. So they get more hurricanes than anything. But Texas is vey hot everywhere. But if you have to be in a tornado, you want to be in Oklahoma , because the warning system for tornadoes is top of the line! I live in Oklahoma, I’ve been through several tornadoes, and all of our weather men/ women are world class scientists. And they let you know what street that tornado is turning in, do plenty of ti e typically to take shelter.
