Thanks Kerry, you made my day! I was one of the folks asking you to cover S2A because their offerings most closely meet my requirements. Also, I believe S2A's approach has the greatest chance of disrupting the conventional stick-built market. At least until the other leading players like Boxabl make a serious entry into the market with SQFT sizes and floorplans that don't require the homeowner to adapt to a tiny-home lifestyle
I love these homes and for me...the second you showed us. I so much want lots of outdoor space, although the last one you showed was the perfect design for me but I live alone. I don't think you mentioned any pricing and since transportation fees aren't included, I'm delighted that one of the places they are building iis in FL , where I currently live. Besides needing a lot of good quality screens, the heat doesn't bother me so much since I have lived in FL for 30 years. Thanks as always for keeping all of your viewers informed. Three details I need to know is the structural elements such as wind speeds, overall air tightness since I live in a 101 year old historical district and now want new and airtight since my current location has lots of live oak trees so rodents can get into my walls and attic...none inside. I definitely want hurricane proof windows or close to it but my largest concern is how I should go about looking for property where I'm still fairly close to the city yet still have my privacy for a home like this PERFECT design and size for me. Do I begin getting a realtor or is there a better way to get started. I have too many trees over my current home to ever have the opportunity to have 100% solar which I really want. So thanks again and I really appreciate your time with being truthful about all of the prefab homes you show on your channel.
DT... Thanks for asking him to cover these. Good to see more options like this one..regardless of other issues people have with it..like renderings...not producing yet.etc....The biggest greatest and /or most innovative productions of anything has often taken more time and been worth waiting for and supporting it's progression from a dream/design into material reality.
I freaking love this kid!! I can totally see Kerry on a sitcom someday. I’ll watch his videos even after I find the house I’m looking for just for the daily chuckle. He’d make an awesome spokes person for a major brand.
Kerry, I really love these homes. Yeah, they seem a bit pricey but if one adds the cost of electricity to their mortgage or rent, this is a great option. I also like the idea that they are creating factories throughout the nation to help reduce transportation / shipping cost. I am definitely going to look deeper into this company! Thank you very much for doing a lot of the leg work in finding these companies and presenting them to us! Truly love your videos!
Thank you Kerry. Don't you end up wondering about designers that feature multiple wide open sliders but build in places like Florida & Texas? Do bugs not live in their world? Did they miss the class on loss of thermal mass where air con is needed? Do window coverings for night-time privacy never get designed-in consideration? My world is so different...
I’m just delighted to see you featuring companies that are focused on building homes that are net-neutral. This is CRITICAL to meeting the Paris Accord goals. Here in DC, anyone installing solar panels may sell excess energy back to the grid. My closest friend makes between $400-$800 A MONTH in this way. He lives in a 100-year-old house and just installed a solar array on his roof which is so efficient, he can’t use all the energy (it even powers his electric car). But his ability to make this money is the result of regular citizens who pushed for policies that reward the use of green energy. State or local governments that depend on oil and gas are typically hostile to policies like this…it is up to everyone to be sure to elect state representatives that are fighting to make green energy accessible. There is so much money to be made in this arena…this is the future if we will fight for it.
@@KerryTarnow Thanks Kerry, I designed all of these houses. Please let me know if you or anyone has any questions. I also have hundreds of more affordable houses in our S2A Modular lineup.
According to the chart, NY will be the 8th factory built. I might be waiting awhile before I can consider them. Lol. The model 6 looks really good though. Very appealing. 😎😎😎 Great video. Loved how informative you are and how well you organize the info. I wouldn’t get half this info doing my own research. Thank you.
Thank you for the video's. I always love what you show, but, yes there's a but, they always seem REALLY expensive, and I know that nowadays EVERYTHING is expensive. I was wondering if you could show some homes that are more for younger people buying their 1st home, with incomes that are double digits instead of triple digits. I promise there are a lot of us that exist. If I have missed some of the video's that I'm talking about, I apologize, and could you point me in the right direction of where they're at. Thanks again for your video's!
There are two requirements that I would insist on before building a home or buying a prefab home: *#1- No paint.* Yes, inside and out, no paint would be a requirement. I got the idea from Saint-Philibert's Church in Tournus, France. Its patina over the centuries has softened the stone into a gaussian blur. Another work of inspirational architecture without paint is the original Apple store in Soho, NYC. It's 10 years old and, with thousands of people visiting weekly, it's as good looking and modern as the day it opened. Paint is the bane of architecture. Paint ruins interiors and furnishings and requires constant maintenance. Paint is the acid-washed jeans of architecture. *#2- No recessed canned lighting.* Canned lights are an inexpensive way to add light. They are cheap looking too. They litter the ceiling and add glare. Canned lighting is appropriate for malls and retail stores but not for homes. If you're an architect that relies on canned lighting it shows that you don't know how to control light. If you don't know how to control light, learn. Check out the Schweikher House, built in 1938. It disgusts me that the hard fought knowledge of the past is treated like a toy box.
Great looking structures and what a green company if it all proves true. This was nice to watch as I sipped my morning coffee. Question - are there any companies out there that are building something with more of a traditional esthetic? I like the homes you show, but realize, we couldn't live in one long term just due to the design. They don't seem cozy, warm and inviting. Everything looks the same in a way - very modern and contemporary. I know MCM is the design of choice for a lot of folks, but those of us on the other side of the country still like our country cottages. Just a thought. Maybe someone out there is still making traditional designs, but with all the advantages of the homes you tend to feature. Thanks for all the great videos. I know you put a lot of effort into them and it shows. Cheers!
Thanks Kerry for featuring S2A Modular. I heard about them several years ago through a friend. I even considered investing in the company. I’m happy to see decent sized homes on the last 2 videos I’ve watched. Not everyone wants an ADU & a lot of people are considering other options other than a stick built. Love your channel!
WOW...this is my fav of all....the first one...it's the size i would want and love the renderings ..these are so beautiful.(and HAVE to have a tub even if only use it sometimes...and shower more) . Yu hit on so many things that matter most. thank you again..You have the mind and eye for this . You get so much info to us in so little time...there should be some award for what you do...you do it best.
23 for me! Love that one! The folding doors are lovely, but I would need slider doors with screens. Maybe not as beautiful, but much more practical in my climate.
Seeing the cost for the sliders ranges from $3 to 10k each, your assertion concerning upgrades is the likely scenario. Of the two, I prefer the 2 story. Looks like Boxabl may have some competition.
Thank you for the video. They have been in a state of "factories are being build" for several years now and show their big plans but don't seem to make much progress. I hope they will accomplish what they promise but for now it looks like vaporware. Don't get burned by the renderings....
As usual, Kerry, really great information and I like looking at the renderings when there aren't actual homes to see. My question is, while the company seems to have very specific plans for expansion, what are the plans for *funding* this expansion. If money for good ideas grew on trees, you and I would be rich. So, I ask: show me the money, or, at least, where is coming from.
I started watching some S2A webinars a year ago, which I first saw advertised on Facebook. They went into a lot of detail on the solar panels and Tesla batteries. They were soliciting investors, and were going to offer tours of their first production facility in California this spring. I’m in the Midwest; hope the Texas facility will be in operation soon!
This is truly interesting. It's interesting to me mainly because it doesn't make the assumption that we are willing and able to live in a tiny home. And $173 per square foot is a start. The condo I used to live in, for example, was just over $100 per square foot when I bought it, and, alas, somewhere around $30 per square foot when I sold it. When, if ever, do you think that the price of a modular home like this will be cut in half, and something stylish can also be affordable?
Kerry, you da' man! Total house showing Giga Chad brother! Another Jaw-dropping video! I'd be curious to see what they have in a 5--8 bedroom 3+ bath or maybe a rendering video of these so-called "modular mansions" they've engineered! [heh heh.. Papa needs a new house for his recording studio and streaming/gaming setup!] Going to check their website now, thanks again Kerry!
Flat rooves could create problems, during snowstorms, even in the South. Much wiser to purchase a sloping roof, from which unexpected or heavy loads can slide to the ground. Also, it would be nice if some of the plans had more traditional facades. The plain box could become very boring. The prefab construction has been around since the 60's and 70's; the new materials were not available, then. The designs were more often traditional, with fewer of the box facades. In most situations, all the wooden framework was done in factory, with the veneers being added onsite; measurements were more accurate, when done with factory equipment and laborers than those which were stick-built and made plumb onsite. Today, more accurate measurements and cheaper production can be achieved with robotic systems. Geographical adaptation is of paramount concern, for instance, Texas heat has challenged some of the faux stucco products sometimes used on house with these exterior designs, causing concern to the builder and the buyer. I am a very big proponent of the pre-fab building concept; we just need to get it right - "get all the ducks in a row", as they say.
That’s the whole thing that makes these houses nice as they’re not traditional like every other house in the neighborhood I wanna see more modern house has modern houses get higher prices cause they look better.
I absolutely love this...living in a net zero home. But in Vermont....Teams has some challenges. Flat roofs ...well 18 inches of snow would be too heavy for the cheap wood frames used.....solar.....well I live in wooded area and one side gets full sun but solar company automatically disqualifies this mobile home as possible for any solar usage which is just bull....they are building neighborhoods in Colchester VT with no thought to solar...present day in a state that needs it desperately....closest manufacturing plant is new york....figures....NO ONE dares to really take on the challenge of improving net zero or solar in a manufactured home park including Tesla in Vermont because they can t do it! If you can I dare you to....to build one net zero home in Vermont with challenges of above. California s real easy to do for net zero but Vermont or Canada? Come on Feels take on a real challenge.
Kerry, how do any of these homes align with the World Economic Forum's statement that you will own nothing and be happy or else. They discuss stack and pack which means cramming lots of people in whats called smart cities. These are not Conspiracy Theories. Doubt you read most comments but hope you will see this. Homes WILL become more affordable with the looming housing crash.
Hey Kerry... my brain is swimming with all the new choices you are introducing us to. Can I ask for a small favor and ask for an update on Canadian based companies? Please and THANK you for your site!
I can’t seem to find the cost?? The big issue at least in CA is adding the cost of the land which can easily be over $800,000 depending on where.. sighs
Idk… that tesla wall will be getting a lot of side eyeing while laying on my bed.. idk the car batteries always catching fire is a big no from me dawg… I was wondering tho if you could ever do a vid about kit homes? Living in my 900 sf condo in boston is shrinking every day with my prepper gf and her endless 3 foot tubs of food is getting close to me admitting myself into the nuthouse.. so im thinking of buying land up New Hampshire and buying a kit home ,but only house guy i trust is Sam and Alice’s love child! Any chance u can do one?
Kerry what's up. I on the payed list for Boxble but it's going to be awhile till I can get one or 4 of them. I'm looking fro a pre fab that I can put on a lot in a residential neighborhood. Only want spend about 150k. Any ideas?
Hey Kerry: shout out from Niagara area. All these homes are great, but if the regions wont allow you to put them down, watchAgot? Our township is “open” to hearing what bylaws /workarounds other communities have come up with….got a list? Can you point me in the right direction? Give me some leads? We have 125 acres over 3 properties over here, and we’d be allowed to put 1 ADU down, on the property with no existing dwelling :(. AKA: if you build it….you have to have a place to PUT IT!! Heeeellllllpppppp (please)
Thanks for another great video. Are there any modern prefab companies located in Canada, specifically in Eastern Canada? Thanks and looking forward to your next video.
Hi Kerry, I follow u , u r great n I trust u with no experience but I feel u r a good man n trustable, I asked u before could u please advice and direct me please, me n wife n kid r renting n don’t have home I love to purchase prefab as homes but how about land ? What can I do , ?please advice.
The first round of modular models I designed to fit more towards the California market since that is where our first plant is. I am actually from the Midwest so I will have many more designs geared towards the middle of the country with pitched roofs and everything you'd expect to see in your area. Not only that, I will design custom homes for anyone who prefers it.
The quality of these types of homes seem to be built to a much higher standard compared to site-built homes. Unless you've got a really good contractor and your house is the only one he's working on or just one of a few.
I sat in on a conference call. They are doing exactly what I want with green building but I couldn’t hack the price. One of the most expensive I’ve seen. I think they charge $9/mile for shipping. Do that math on 2,000* miles. I had to pass!
The shipping isn't out of line with what I'm currently being charged. Rates have gone up a ton like just about everything else. I guess there's always the hope the build a factory closer than 2,000 miles from you. Thanks for watching
Good video clarifying and covering the salient points from a not so easy to navigate site. From an architectural standpoint, the models are nice, but their website is a bit disconnected and not intuitive to navigate in order to quickly find info. efficiently. They prominently feature their sustainability marketing verbiage, even going so far on some pages to say their homes are gender and diversity inclusive. Your guess is as good as mine as to how they manage that in real life application scenarios..just more annoying marketing garbage. Website is clunky to navigate..said that already..If I had clicked on the gallery on the home page, I would have accessed the home models right away but I thought the way to access detailed home model info. was to click on residential in the nav bar and go from there. But 'Gallery' which is usually just where sites put photos with limited or no accompanying info is where they put all relevant info. on each model home. Even the FAQ..instead of a quick dropdown, you click through to another page for each Q and then click back..it's not a huge deal but you shouldn't have load a page for each Q&A. Videos of each model are too quickly edited so you don't come away with as an clear idea of the continuity flow of each home as you should. They could have done both the pics and the videos much better without breaking the budget. Again, the problem is with the continuity of their pictures, not the quality of the computer simulated pictures. On many models, you can't orient yourself as to where you are in some shots and where the bathroom is in relation to the house without referring to floorplan. Many times you want to get a eyeline view from a wider angle than they provide. And on the models I viewed, they give you one shot of the bathroom from a limited angle so you really can't determine much from it.
The folding glass doors on the green lux 23 will run you about $40,000(conservatively). I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that most people buying a home that small at that price point aren't going to opt for a $40,000 door option. I think the vast majority of these companies will not exist a year and a half from now. I'm so tired of everybody talking about how they're going to be the Tesla of houses. They really need to stop talking about building a million mega factories and just focus on getting quality product out the door. Silicon valley style hype is so damn played out. With that said, I absolutely love the aesthetic this company has gone with. I hope they're one of the companies that survives.
This is awful, to me. I'm looking for a well built basic shell and do my own interior lay out. Considering I'm poor these are ridiculous prices. FOLKS buy a well built house for these prices. Thanks for your video
So another prefab that won't come out, gotcha. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. 170k a year is nearly a field of solar panels, sounds bunk to me.
@@KerryTarnow Thanks for the videos m8! You do great work, I just don't have faith in these companies. I can't find any prefab places in my state where there used to be ten's if not hundreds a few decades ago.
First home shown . Large by most standards ,but dreadful lack of wardrobe space included. Too many windows, with space that should be devoted to storage ,not windows.
Thanks Kerry, you made my day! I was one of the folks asking you to cover S2A because their offerings most closely meet my requirements. Also, I believe S2A's approach has the greatest chance of disrupting the conventional stick-built market. At least until the other leading players like Boxabl make a serious entry into the market with SQFT sizes and floorplans that don't require the homeowner to adapt to a tiny-home lifestyle

Besides needing a lot of good quality screens, the heat doesn't bother me so much since I have lived in FL for 30 years.
Thanks as always for keeping all of your viewers informed.
Three details I need to know is the structural elements such as wind speeds, overall air tightness since I live in a 101 year old historical district and now want new and airtight since my current location has lots of live oak trees so rodents can get into my walls and attic...none inside.
I definitely want hurricane proof windows or close to it but my largest concern is how I should go about looking for property where I'm still fairly close to the city yet still have my privacy for a home like this PERFECT design and size for me.

@@marianl3447 I like the renderings they serve a great purpose. How else can the manufacturer get a sense of what they should be considering?
I freaking love this kid!! I can totally see Kerry on a sitcom someday. I’ll watch his videos even after I find the house I’m looking for just for the daily chuckle. He’d make an awesome spokes person for a major brand.
A Step down frm what he doing now, trying to get people affordable housing

I dont have bugs
I have a sneaking suspicion those accordion sliding doors are to allow visibility into the model home and to show the flexibility of options.

folding glass doors are an awesome idea.....I'd like 'em on my house but I need someone to tell me how to handle bugs/mosquitos...:)
Thank you for not being clickbait.

It’s nice they have indoor pools with robotic life saving robots, good insulation and full robot-attended spa’s.

Flat roofs ...well 18 inches of snow would be too heavy for the cheap wood frames used.....solar.....well I live in wooded area and one side gets full sun but solar company automatically disqualifies this mobile home as possible for any solar usage which is just bull....they are building neighborhoods in Colchester VT with no thought to solar...present day in a state that needs it desperately....closest manufacturing plant is new york....figures....NO ONE dares to really take on the challenge of improving net zero or solar in a manufactured home park including Tesla in Vermont because they can t do it! If you can I dare you to....to build one net zero home in Vermont with challenges of above. California s real easy to do for net zero but Vermont or Canada? Come on Feels take on a real challenge.
Kerry, how do any of these homes align with the World Economic Forum's statement that you will own nothing and be happy or else. They discuss stack and pack which means cramming lots of people in whats called smart cities. These are not Conspiracy Theories. Doubt you read most comments but hope you will see this. Homes WILL become more affordable with the looming housing crash.
have you checked into the IKEA Net-Zero prefabricated house? could you gather more information about it please?
What are the primary construction materials?? Wood, Steel?? Concrete?? Other??
I want to purchase a prefab house this year. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Which one are you thinking of purchasing
@@thefoundingtitanerenyeager2345 I have not seen one cheap enough yet that I like. Boxabl is great but, too long a waiting list at this time.
Hey Kerry... my brain is swimming with all the new choices you are introducing us to. Can I ask for a small favor and ask for an update on Canadian based companies? Please and THANK you for your site!
Have one coming out today
NIce video Kerry. OSC is the way of the future without doubt… ✌️🌻
Thanks Markie!
These will probably be very expensive, but they are the best homes I’ve seen on this channel so far.
Wow interesting! Thanks for the feedback
Where can one find a home site with an easy access to utilities, subdivision approval, and building permits?
Blues is glues. Crazy spell check aye?
I’m looking for a module home at least 2000 ft.² but I have not ever seen anything on your channel this large and yes I need the room
Shared
I can’t seem to find the cost?? The big issue at least in CA is adding the cost of the land which can easily be over $800,000 depending on where.. sighs
Idk… that tesla wall will be getting a lot of side eyeing while laying on my bed.. idk the car batteries always catching fire is a big no from me dawg…
I was wondering tho if you could ever do a vid about kit homes? Living in my 900 sf condo in boston is shrinking every day with my prepper gf and her endless 3 foot tubs of food is getting close to me admitting myself into the nuthouse.. so im thinking of buying land up New Hampshire and buying a kit home ,but only house guy i trust is Sam and Alice’s love child! Any chance u can do one?
Kerry what's up. I on the payed list for Boxble but it's going to be awhile till I can get one or 4 of them. I'm looking fro a pre fab that I can put on a lot in a residential neighborhood. Only want spend about 150k. Any ideas?
Beautiful
Why doesn't boxibel do a net zero energy home?
Hey Kerry: shout out from Niagara area. All these homes are great, but if the regions wont allow you to put them down, watchAgot? Our township is “open” to hearing what bylaws /workarounds other communities have come up with….got a list? Can you point me in the right direction? Give me some leads? We have 125 acres over 3 properties over here, and we’d be allowed to put 1 ADU down, on the property with no existing dwelling :(. AKA: if you build it….you have to have a place to PUT IT!! Heeeellllllpppppp (please)
Thanks for another great video. Are there any modern prefab companies located in Canada, specifically in Eastern Canada? Thanks and looking forward to your next video.

Love the design, would prefer a slight sloped roof!!
That would be a nice look 🙌🏼
The first round of modular models I designed to fit more towards the California market since that is where our first plant is. I am actually from the Midwest so I will have many more designs geared towards the middle of the country with pitched roofs and everything you'd expect to see in your area. Not only that, I will design custom homes for anyone who prefers it.
WILL BE POSIBBLE MORE ACCUTERE DATA LESS WORDS?
The quality of these types of homes seem to be built to a much higher standard compared to site-built homes. Unless you've got a really good contractor and your house is the only one he's working on or just one of a few.
When these manufactures say "net zero homes", what exactly are they referring to?
I sat in on a conference call. They are doing exactly what I want with green building but I couldn’t hack the price. One of the most expensive I’ve seen. I think they charge $9/mile for shipping. Do that math on 2,000* miles. I had to pass!
The shipping isn't out of line with what I'm currently being charged. Rates have gone up a ton like just about everything else. I guess there's always the hope the build a factory closer than 2,000 miles from you. Thanks for watching
@@KerryTarnow the Florida and Texas factories should be available to take orders by 1st quarter of 2023.
Most people have solar panels on their roofs on homes in Perth West Australia.

I was watching this channel to see a tour of the house in the picture, but was wrong.
I'm calling them "Square Day"
Does plumbing go out that far to the desert lol
How tall are the ceilings in model 6? I prefer 11 feet tall being 6’4. Touching the ceiling makes me feel like I’m in a box
They should be customizable to built it into the specs you want. It would just cost more in material pricing. Labor is not too much of a difference.
Good video clarifying and covering the salient points from a not so easy to navigate site. From an architectural standpoint, the models are nice, but their website is a bit disconnected and not intuitive to navigate in order to quickly find info. efficiently. They prominently feature their sustainability marketing verbiage, even going so far on some pages to say their homes are gender and diversity inclusive. Your guess is as good as mine as to how they manage that in real life application scenarios..just more annoying marketing garbage.
Website is clunky to navigate..said that already..If I had clicked on the gallery on the home page, I would have accessed the home models right away but I thought the way to access detailed home model info. was to click on residential in the nav bar and go from there. But 'Gallery' which is usually just where sites put photos with limited or no accompanying info is where they put all relevant info. on each model home. Even the FAQ..instead of a quick dropdown, you click through to another page for each Q and then click back..it's not a huge deal but you shouldn't have load a page for each Q&A.
Videos of each model are too quickly edited so you don't come away with as an clear idea of the continuity flow of each home as you should. They could have done both the pics and the videos much better without breaking the budget. Again, the problem is with the continuity of their pictures, not the quality of the computer simulated pictures. On many models, you can't orient yourself as to where you are in some shots and where the bathroom is in relation to the house without referring to floorplan. Many times you want to get a eyeline view from a wider angle than they provide. And on the models I viewed, they give you one shot of the bathroom from a limited angle so you really can't determine much from it.
How much is this prefab home?
Geez, more I can't afford. 😢 Beautiful tho!
Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
The folding glass doors on the green lux 23 will run you about $40,000(conservatively). I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that most people buying a home that small at that price point aren't going to opt for a $40,000 door option. I think the vast majority of these companies will not exist a year and a half from now. I'm so tired of everybody talking about how they're going to be the Tesla of houses. They really need to stop talking about building a million mega factories and just focus on getting quality product out the door. Silicon valley style hype is so damn played out. With that said, I absolutely love the aesthetic this company has gone with. I hope they're one of the companies that survives.
Yeah it's going to be an interesting couple years ahead without a doubt... Thanks for watching.
Throw in a hair gel tutorial?
@@ElectronicMusicUnderground I couldn't resist. Thanks for your comment - I enjoyed it. 🙂👍
hahaha! hair jokes are always welcome in the comments.
He probably has great liver health. The liver provides strength to the hair. Weak liver, brittle, dry hair with split ends.
Of course....
wow, this guy's voice, tone and inflections sound like the classic YT narrator
thank you
👍

Prices?
i wish there was like a device you could call people and use it like some sort of com pute or to search stuff on..
i drive all over, never seen one, if i did, might be a good laugh
Haha
I want more modern house not more traditional you see everywhere.
All of these have way too many windows. I like windows, but jeez. Must be a nightmare to heat or cool these
Cc an you help me with something
Tesla in spellchecker is Feels or team! Yikes spellchecker is the worst!
This is awful, to me. I'm looking for a well built basic shell and do my own interior lay out.
Considering I'm poor these are ridiculous prices. FOLKS buy a well built house for these prices.
Thanks for your video
So another prefab that won't come out, gotcha. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. 170k a year is nearly a field of solar panels, sounds bunk to me.
Thanks for watching John!
@@KerryTarnow Thanks for the videos m8! You do great work, I just don't have faith in these companies. I can't find any prefab places in my state where there used to be ten's if not hundreds a few decades ago.
looks like a container with a porch added, virtually no carm or character but as they say you will own nothing and be happy living in a square box
Please check out my other designs on the website
First home shown . Large by most standards ,but dreadful lack of wardrobe space included. Too many windows, with space that should be devoted to storage ,not windows.
