What we do know is this: our prefab packages are insanely affordable, especially if you're building in a high price-per-square-foot market. Seriously — you're getting a fully insulated building shell, with premium windows and doors, for less than a luxury car. And unlike a car, this thing won't depreciate the second it hits your land — it's a house. A real one. One that'll last generations and possibly outlive us all.
