I just bought my first piece of land and I’m trying to wait for cost to go down to build. Thanks so much for your videos.
Same! 😃
Looking to buy my first lot
Costs won’t come down. Interests rates will, in a few years, but then costs will go up.
You sure do know stuff! I am preparing to look for someone to build such a home for me. I want to move to a small home with no lawn work; just gardening. I'm a 72 year old woman - retired scientist, I'm andobviously a rube in on this subject. So thank you for the information. I do love this design.
Thank you for posting this video! This is exactly what my wife and I needed to see as we take your Open Book Build online course. We just finish the 5th Chapter the other day. Much Obliged!
Are you happy with the course so far?
@@SixNickelRanch very much so. Even if we don't end up being our own general contractor and decide to purchase a manufactured home, there is a ton of useful information.
This is a wonderfully executed affordable small design. Great work! You could even make the garage a simple covered carport/outdoor extension space to further maximize savings and usability. I love the WiFi lockbox feature too, reminds of an old school milk delivery box.
insulation in the winter is not for keeping the cold out, is for keeping the heat in.
in the summer is for keeping the heat out
This house in CA would cost $1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
In Bay City MI, you can buy a 5000 sq ft home for 300K, live near the Great Lakes, and enjoy a wonderful quality of life.
I'm almost disappointed if I don't see a "well in California..." comment on every video.
Dang I didn't even watch the video yet I was hoping it could be applied here in CA 😭😭😭
One sextillion dollars? Press X to doubt
This looks like a great starter home - I wish you would build more of these. My first townhome that my husband and I got in the early 2000's had a layout nearly identical to this. We had all hardwood flooring with vaulted ceilings front to back of the house.
We grew to hate the open concept after living there. The baby's room was off the kitchen and guest bath, and sound bounced everywhere. It felt like it amplified even though it didn't. Soft-close cabinets and drawers became essential for us.
Aside from that, this looks great. Nice!
You're the man. This is awesome content. I live in California and everything is so freaking expensive to buy I've been wanting to go the build route.
I would use a siplit system than this bulky old style central ac.
Love all the videos on this channel. Very informative and helpful.. I'm going to try to view them all. Thank you.
I love your videos! Very descriptive and gives begginers a good idea of what questions to ask and look for
Especially the basement staircase across from the door! Those are the kind of things that make a house loveable
Where the light switches are placed etc
Great work!
Wow just wow, that’s a quick build and it looks amazing! Now, I live in Florida by the beach, so no basement option for me. Would it be an option to add roof height to create a bedroom up there? I’m looking to build a 3 bedroom, but if the attic doesn’t work, I’ll convert the garage 😊 other than that, you surely creates a super efficient lay out!
Wow, doesn't sound that affordable
What's the breakout for materials ?
Thanks for putting out all of the wonderful content. I've been a custom tile installer for 17 years, and am about to build an adu on my parent's property. Your videos have been really useful to help think of cost efficiencies in the planning process. 🙏
Also, kudos on your tile guy for carrying the veining from the back wall to return walls.
I want to build my own home here in Virginia USA but I haven’t find the lot in the county that I like.
So when can you help build a new home here in Michigan
Did I miss the stated square footage? How big is this house (not including a finished basement) in terms of square footage?
Outstanding! This information is more important than ever - first-time buyers need to know that they can build and own a thoroughly modern home with a bit of sweat equity.
Afordable huose yah 164K man these prices are ridicoulus
Michael, point of clarification. This seems really obvious but worth asking just in case. The 165k was as is for the house correct? To add the two bedrooms downstairs as well as the additional bath would be in addition to that 165? Presuming this is correct, can you provide any idea on what that might cost additionally? Perhaps also to make it a two car garage?
10k or less for the downstairs if you DIY.
No landing or roof outside the back door? That doesn't look safe. Next time, put a porch landing so people have somewhere to stand while they're opening the door.
Can you provide the brand of that delivery door? Thank you
Thanks for another nice informative video.
What would your build cost have been if this house was set as a slab on grade without the basement for those of us in areas where basements are uncommon?
$25k less
Wher can I find a slab insurance company?
No laundry room??
You've inspired me more than you can ever realize..thanks!
Just sold my home in CA and headed to TN at the end of the month. I really want to do an OB for the 3000 sqft home we want, but I’m chicken 🐔
What part in TN? I’m an agent in the Chattanooga/Cleveland TN market!
Why so big? That's counter to this video. I built my first one 1,600 sqft walkout (3,200 total), and I'll never do that again. Half that size this time with a shop/garage on the bottom floor. Lose your ego and build smaller...you'll thank me later.
Hey Andrew, not sure where yet. Likely somewhere where my huge ego could be on full display. I would hate to make such a huge decision without the consent of Karl. He obviously knows what’s best for me and my family.
@@spookiehyperbole7510 LOL. I've done an owner built house...have you? Don't be so touchy. I'm talking about any man's ego, including my own. The house I built was bigger than the one you want to build...did you not get that? Unless you have 9 kids (I have 2), nobody needs a house that big. Only a dummy builds a McMansion these days. More difficulty to build, a lot more expense, and a MUCH larger property tax bill for the rest of your life. But by all means...have at er. The realtor loves people like you.
@@karlhungus545 hi, did you yet financing to build yours then? And is it still possible now to get financing? I’m thinking of being an owner builder myself…
Looks really good
165k labor and material
Not including land, utilities, grading, etc. (Notes)
Is this with the cost of general contractors, subs, profits? Or doing all work yourself?
Id like to purchase the floorplan please
Do you have the floor plan available for this home?
Hello just wanted to know if you build in GA
What was the blower door score ?
3 months! That is excellent
The wall between the staircase and the living room needs to go all the way up, a child could fall to the death. And there should be a staircase going up to the attic right above the basement stairs and an option to finish the attic.
Materials costs have doubled in the intervening years. So that house today would be around 250k. Still a decent value but it is an absolute beginner home.
We are currently traveling for a career and I binge these videos every few months to keep the dream of our own home alive. Someday! Any chance of getting interior walkthroughs of people who have built this plan with different finishes/styles?
Hey Mike, live your Videos. I am a newer sub but have watched nearly all of them.
I have an idea for a video of something I and I'm sure many others would live to see.
A Barndominium build
Amazing home
Do you have HRV on your makeup air?
I like it.
Love the efficiency. Not my style but I got ideas from it. Thanks
crazy how many nice features, and well thought out, new homes can have even in a low price small home. puts my 80s CA track house to shame.
Too expensive, south of the border u pay $35.00/sf brick n mortar thru n thru high quality construction. What have we done to ourselves?, we r even paying $17 for a dozen of eggs, when south of the border u can actually buy 6 chickens for that price and have your own check scoop...
Next thing we know, we will bailout banks....
Build it yourself, genius.
Very nice ! If you were to build this today what would you estimate it would Cost ?
I’d like to ask, can one get financing to be an owner builder?
Why is the outlet in kitchen the wrong way
The one above the dishwasher? It's bothering me now.
Looks great
Are you built house in West Palm Beach?
Do this plans work in california?
anyone on here built this yet?
build me a house! woww
Thank you for the smart ideas!
Loved your video 👍👍👍🙌
I love this house. Perfect
Lovely!
Great videos! I remember you mentioning before someplace where I could get building plans for a low-cost but I forget what website that was I think you might have mentioned that if I wanted to edit a floor plan it's easy to do that with that software I can't remember if it was in this video or another one that you made it before.
why would I need a car charger in the basement?
Please show the garage son.
