McMansions are actually... affordable?

McMansions are actually... affordable?

Still no bricks though

Yeah that's why everyone builds them. They realistically only last like 30yrs max though

Because they can't hire an actual architect to design a normal house for them, it's all almost pre-fab, pre-designed box with mc-mansion features.

just have 260000 bro

I dont have that money and i dont intend of putting the effort of aquiring that money. You just have to be contend with rajesh and his 19 housemates being your neighboor.

They realistically only last like 30yrs max though

Many times, they're designed to fail.

McMansions

1887 sqft isn't a mcmansion, it's pretty normal for a 2 story
also you can build cheap in Houston because of all the illegals and not needing insulation

in 30 years it will be a section 8 neighborhood anyways

$262,000

Affordable

lol
But apparently $200 on box gutters to save his concrete foundation from turning into crumble cookies in 20 years was not in the budget.

Those prices are very optimistic prices and would be higher if each portion of the build were farmed out and not done by a single builder. If the total purchase price is real that is a serious bargain. That house is $450,000 if I tried to buy it in a low cost of living state right now. Social media bullshit

260k

I don't even have $500. Fuck outta here.

Who wants to live in some dense tract house crammed up against 5 other neighbors like that? I wouldn't even want to be in my house if that's where I lived.
The fact that people live like this just makes me sad. It's an American favela.

that is not a mcmansion. just a glorified cuckshed
needs to be 3000sq ft minimum

McMansions are

Overusing the word only makes it meaningless.
There is a size requirement for mcmansions and a quarter million for a build is not "affordable".

8200 for a floor plan? kek, i mustve been jewed for doing them for 850

32k for the concrete pad seems ridiculously low. That's like 2010 prices. Today they go for close to 80k.

$1900 for all the appliances

kek wut?

I live a in comfy two bedroom trailer that was built in 1983. The previous owners gutted it put all new drywall and a new roof on it about 10 years ago. I painted it and everyone is impressed by how nice an comfy the inside is.

It's on 1.5 acres and I've never been happier to be High Class Trailer Trash.

foam insulation

nigger what

holy fucking soulless i hate NPCs so much anyone who buys these jewburbs deserves the wall

The house sucks. Materials are cheap. The labor is cheap and bad. Neighbors are too close. 1800sqft is too small for a family

Shed.

es.mp4 - 304x540, 3.32M

also this guy took shortcuts everywhere in that total.
for example we also have LVP and our material cost alone was 7k. we used commercial grade with high thickness and wear that is actually meant to last 20+ years

depends, dig it out your self and place the rebar yourself and just buy a cement truck to dump on it

how the hell is a floor plan 8200? the most expensive architectural software is half that

looks comfy enough. how long will this house last?

Because engineers are expensive

i literally get jewed doing floor plans for 850

its a floor plan, you dont even need to be a licensed engineer or architect for a house in most states

Mansions aren't made of wood.
Homes made of wood are called wood shacks, not mansions.

this guy actually did a good job on this one but it's still very soulless and I'd rather smoke snort and fuck that 260k than be trapped with that thing
also post sat location and let's see if it was really worth chaining a 260k dumbbell to your ankle
also the structure looks like ass, it should have been 1 story

Glad to see you around Appalachian anon

even premade plans are 2 grand at most

ayy based slovak anon
we need some more gigachad house threads in a few months

What do you think is going to fail?

If he knows a lot of people it seems plausible, but $6,000 for a houselot of windows is like almost impossible unless he scored a set that was ordered or manufactured incorrectly. It seems like most of it is 10-30% below retail factoring for the exchange rate. That house would cost roughly $500k CAD to build so I expect his real cost is closer to $350k.

This is due to the way they constructed that HVAC decking as an extension of the home framing and it funneled the water into the home when it rained. That is an unbelievable design flaw. There should be weatherproofing at that level and a detached deck on a pad for the HVAC stuff.

Yeah that definitely cuts down on costs. You pretty much need a mini excavator though, doing that with a shovel would be hell on earth.

R-13 wall, lol.

34567854.png - 1966x665, 470.68K

Because it was built out of popsicle sticks by spics.

$6k for windows

Doubt. I have to replace the windows in my townhouse, not even a full house, and it's going to cost 25k.

true that must've been 30gs

Hell yeah man. We had a 4 bed, 2 bath double wide on 5 acres when I was growing up. It was the best.

Why are Europeans so obsessed with brick houses? Certain parts of the country it's better to build with wood rather than brick for structural and climate reasons. As in there's earthquakes or it gets hot as fuck.

vinyl flooring

spray insulation

no gutters

this isn't a mcmansion it's a glorified shed.

Brick is infinitely better. Hail for example puts holes in shitty plastic siding they put on new homes

McMansions

I guess either that concept doesn't translate well into Swahili and/or you come from some extremely impoverished African shithole.

Eventually, every suburb will be 3d-printed. It will be cheaper, more effective, more efficient, less labor.

Houston would probably let you build with those walls, but you'd have to be incredibly stupid to do it in the most humid city in the US, that is prone to hurricanes.

rip fugly squared nigger house

You can just check current pricing in Houston online.
8-20 per square foot makes 14-36k for his 1800 square foot.

I have a concrete house in Colorado. It sucks big time in the summer. It just radiates heat until early in the morning. The sun is very intense here.

Houston

Build a $500k house in a $2 ghetto

You'll find out soon enough, kiddo.

you should have made it a dugout bond villain hq instead of a normie house

I'm not going to take home design advice from a slav.

fuck brick housing and concrete monstrosities. You guys are doing it right. eurofaggots just envy you. Look at eastern europe and balkans. they are living like gypsies.

Too bad it’s one of those ugly hyper modern chink homes

Chink home built with plastic wood to be as cheap as possible while looking modern as possible. It’s super tacky and chink developers are obsessed with it.

That Icon 3d printed concrete wall is rated at R22 at $34, but that was all before this trade war happening.
You will live in an eclectic hobbit home and love it.
You are a mongrel with latinX-mystery nigger blood flowing through your veins, I mean good luck trusting your home being built by spics.

Basically chinks bailing into the U.S. en masse all build homes that look exactly like this. You can tell a chink has moved into your neighbourhood when one of these homes has propped up.

Dis nigga building a Bifrost.

If you're worried about that build with the brick facade. But hail that breaks your siding would break your roof first. Would we have brick roofs too?

No the issue is the water impermeability in the first place.
For thousands of years people have designed and built homes to dry out in case of a damage.
It was only post war america that had a compulsion to use all that plastic they have been ramping up production of for the war.

If I were rich my house would be concrete and glass. Single story, long, in front of some view.

Until an inspector tells you that the house has no issues, don't buy it. And sadly if you want to get the truth, you'll have to pay a private one yourself, you can't trust the city, and you can't sue it if you realize later on that despite being classed as up to norms it's actually a piece of shit full of issues that will cost you as much as you paid for it to fully fix.

Nothing last forever without maintenance

washer and dryer

refrigerator

electric range

microwave

Easily doable for under 2 grand

Wood is good, but these days you don't have crafty hands that can deliver. Picture an 60-80IQ Moroccan brownoid nafri working on this home, doesn't sit right.

Thanks, senpai.

I'm here browsing the chans while enjoying my AC on 64, burning brush to piss off the cunt renting the house next to my property, fapping to loli incest hentai and playing vidya.

Truly, I live as few men dare to dream.

That price probably triples due to tarrifs THANKS DRUMPF

Summer is coming, though, you should definitely skinny-dip at a local creek.

I'd love to but if I get one more indecent exposure charge they'll put me away for good.

I'm retired from that life.

Maintenance will be the next new thing, but the real issue is that newly designed products break way easier/faster than previously made products, meaning more maintenance and eventually buying new products more. A well built house could last 200 years without any form of maintenance.

lmao keep doing you bud

that actually adds up to $263,500 you coin clipping lying kike

That's a Mcmodern not a Mcmansion. Different species anon

Let’s put a bunch of hips and ridges in the roof!!!! Look so snazzy!

wood frame

spray foam insulation

drywall

if I can shoot a 22 clean through the wall its a garbage house.

Not needing insulation

Houston area native here, you're going to need insulation from the heat instead of the cold. Don't listen to leafs.

They may have been some shitty windows with no argon, or r-factor improvements.

Low IQ people reallllly struggle with the term “McMansion”. They think it’s a pejorative for a nice house they can’t afford. You’re an idiot.
A McMansion is a large track home. It’s when multiple houses in a row are right next to each other and look identical, without any character.
This house is custom built. It’s by definition not a McMansion.
You’re an idiot. Poor people are idiots. It’s why you’re poor.

lol wtf is that outcrop polygon hahaha
the house itself is probably nice

And where did this 20 something year old faggot get 250k from?

The whole thing looks cheap as fuck. I assume it would start breaking apart in a couple of years. Only 14k for a roof? Really?

This is a lie

nahh that's a mcmansion
two stories, popsicle stick design, laid in garage, trashy oven style so that you roast to death inside and your mandated electric climate control works overtime
it is vaining to be a mcmansion, but you're right that mcmansions are way more overdone typically also the really disgusting lots are tight levittowns meanwhile the houses are gigantic - you have to be a braindead mcburger to want to stare out your window into another person's 1984 party house

anon pulled out the calculator

No one need trash wood buildings

what is a cool style of home rather than an oven style?
what features make the difference?

Where I live that would be at least 500k

Bricks mean tornadoes can be rated EF4 or EF5, and modern insurance companies won't cover neighborhoods at risk of EF4 and above

why is this euronigger posting brazil home
lmao

pay 6 grand for a fucking countertop

pay 2 grand for a bunch of worn out 15 year old appliances off of facebook market place

sure kid, that microvave he showed was 400, minimum

Just do a cheap ass makeover whe nit's near its end life and sell it for 3x the price

27k for residential land

That's in the middle of bumfuck nowhere

I noticed that. "appliances" was 1900. Yeah, maybe the refrigerator. The stove is 500-600, the dishwasher is probably another 500-700, a washer/dryer will be another couple grand. Ridiculous.

That is not a mcmansion. So hans, for being wrong I hope you get raped in your hairy asshole.

based on climate use the right material
northeast US timber, fuckoff with your insulation and popsicle sticks and use a stove (also kikes can suck my dick I will use propane and propane accessories in my new build)
nevada build a james bond cliff bunker and enjoy your below ground temperature
europoor concrete and steel
simple as
just anything but the popsicle rent goy sticks

You can't do a makeover when the bones of the building are made of cardboard. Better to buy an older house that needs work than this piece of shit.

Not bad. Seems realistic.

I believe every word that came out of this guido looking faggot.

Those are builder's prices with no profit margin

it's all almost pre-fab, pre-designed box with mc-mansion features.

yea but not living in apartment with shit neighbors

Home loan, he probably pays $1200/mo with 6% interest

I wonder about the quality of some of that material, cabinets are fucking expensive, roofs too
