I was going to build the house of my dreams, but I did not think people on social media would LIKE.. OK GOT IT. I stopped the video at that point.

Yeah, you decided not to build it for _business_ reasons. I'm considering it for my _residence._ I couldn't give a damn about yet one more entrepreneur's _business_ reasons for doing or not doing something. No offense intended, this was just a waste of my click as it has _nothing_ to do with people who are considering an A-frame as their permanent residence.

Fake news will always be Fake news people need to do there own research and stop lessening to some UA-cam investigator telling lies

Great stuff. No need to keep panning back to speaker. We’re here for the house. Not the human.

Bet your regretting any AirB&B relationship…

So let me get this straight, you build a house during the height of covid and you complain that it was expensive af?

Well, I will build my house myself (with help from family) and build code in my country is less strict. I think A-frame is a good idea then

Been really looking forward to seeing an update

So you went ahead and bought an A frame but well as i see an the A frame has an overkill in the ribbing and plus in reducing the height of a two story to only 7 feet for each level would reduce cost in timber but extending the length to add need rooms if required as for roof sheeting should 4 x 8 feet home roofing than to commerical 16 x 3 feet tall roofing for a more budget build where you don't live in a snow environment as each year temps will be increasing for the next 6 years and there will less snow but insulation will still be required for to keep cool and a silver or white roofing will needed so in all a one third cost reduction can be achieved if not less dependant on the size of the main braising ribs and thicker floor posts for a second level and whatever you do don't build in the mountain's and never in a known earthquake zone or a coastal area and only inland away from any coastal areas or near or an edge of any city and always have two cars or one car and a motor bike and never an EV as the forecast for the next six years is extremely worse storms as I see A frames are the best for survival and no underground complex and don't live near a volcano as they will become active as the Sun has increased its micro wave output which is heating up the earth's metal molten core to expand that is causing earthquakes and severe increased weather conditions for the next 6 years as an A frame is but a two sided Pyramid and harder to be picked up. I look at all factors when settling for a home against any known weather conditions that will be happening in the next 6 years anywhere on earth. BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY!

....if you can't do anything yourself everything is cost prohibitive. Lol And the ceilings don't "almost act as a wall"....they 100% ARE THE WALL.

FFS, when you say "Northern Michigan" it means the Upper Peninsula. Fucking idiotic trolls...

And when you build an "elevated" A-frame, what you're really doing is building a trad house with a huge roof. THAT'S why it was going to be so expensive. That and you were going to hire someone else to do it for you. You are supposed to build the A-frame yourself. Simple construction, it's a triangle so it's super-strong, lot's of storage on the floor. But, to each his own.

I love A frame. Why AirBNB ? airBNB? don’t make them to control what you like? You investment was got side track with Airbnb Period.

Petoskey michigan here ♡

This lady’s voice, and speech pattern is beyond annoying

A frames are cheap because you can build the whole thing yourself. As soon as you said builder, it wasn’t going to work.

Yellow stick flowers at European countries especially on Balkans prepared for ear pain when someone have a huge problems with ears don't have recapture but many time people makes deferens tinctures from that mature tallest flowers hearbs (they are not for tea consumption) onlu for dropping prepare thinkture for outside in ears

Renting it?

Buying / building an A-frame is like marrying Britney Spears. You know you shouldn't do it, but you might do it anyway.

"...the open concept this a frame has." The definition of an a frame. Love them

I'd watched the other video's before this one. I really like the design a lot and I've been searching for tall compact home designs for years. A lot of my focus has been on modern Japanese designs. One house that really inspired me was called The Shirokane House, which is featured on Arch Daily. In Japan, there are a lot of long thin tall houses, but not many that have more of a square footprint. There's also an interesting one in Sydney, made from concrete over 5 floors with a garage on the bottom. In all the designs we looked at, garages on the bottom complicate the build and use up valuable living space, so we have departed from that design. What we have now come up with is actually similar to yours but with a smaller footprint of about 23 sqm (247 sq ft). There will be three floors at 23 sqm and then a smaller 4th floor flexible area, which can sleep 3 people and hold storage. We've designed it the opposite to yours, which means the kitchen and dining on the bottom. To fit everything in, I chose a 6 person American Diner style eating area and a similar kitchen to yours. The 2nd level is bathroom, a sauna and a laundry with storage. The 3rd level is a partially hidden master bedroom with a King bed and a built in wardrobe. There is also a small lounge and a box seat area that sticks out by 600mm (2ft). Off of the lounge is a 1m wide office nook and a ladder that climbs up to the flexible space on the 4th floor. The lounge wall height is nearly 6m high (20ft), so I intend to build in a climbing wall. The building height will max out at 11.5m (38ft). The total usable floor area will be around 70 sqm (about 750 sq ft). It will be clad with colored steel. So that's our design. The only thing I could add to yours is that I would create a large door which accesses the balcony, so that you can keep the door open in the summer and have more of an outdoor feel. I'm also not 100% sold on that additional metal balcony, even though it actually doesn't look too bad. The roof garden would be my preferred choice, but I am guessing it became a bit cost prohibitive and it's trickier to get water tight. You'd have to butenyl the whole roof and have a hip height wall all the way around. It's also not as easy to access the roof via a ladder. You will have thought about all the pros and cons no doubt. The bunk room is very interesting. 4 lots of queen bunks is quite a fit-out. I particularly like Japanese capsule beds and have thought of many designs where they can snugly fit into different spaces. Pod beds they are often called. I'm also a big fan of loft beds, but if they are your main bed, you don't want to be using ladders all the time. That's why with our design, we put the kids flexi space up the ladder. You probably thought about the inclusion of an elevator, but they waste such a lot of space, as do stairs. I made our stairs only 850mm wide (less than 3 ft), but then all of our furniture will be built in. Nothing big will go up and down the stairs. We also have to contend with earthquake risk, so the engineering and foundations are going to be a bit costly. Tall thin designs are not cheap even if the floor area is quite small. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

I really like your design. We are considering a similar design but with a smaller footprint. Our possible footprint is only 4.5m x 4.5m and rising up 11.5m, which can fit in 4 floors. I'm planning to have one box window sticking out about 600mm on the 3rd floor. I like the wrap around box on your design. It will be very interesting to see what your house looks like with all the finished cladding and also how the interior will look. In our design, weve put the kitchen/diner on the ground floor with an opening to the outside. Middle floor is bathroom, laundry and a small sauna. the 3rd level is a small lounge with the box window, a small office nook and the main bed. Above that on the 4th level is a flexible space that can look down over the lounge. Up there wwe could fit an adult bed or a few single beds and there's room for lots of storage. I'm even considering an indoor climbing wall, because the lounge ceiling rises up almost 6 meters (nearly 20 ft). I love verticle living. You said you have 4 floors. Where is the 4th? Are you counting the roof or is there storage space in the concrete base? If so, that would be ideal as a sort of cellar for food storage. How deep did your foundations have to be for this structure?

This is my dream. I am 53 years old now from Western Europe and I decided to give up my actual career and to start a degree as a carpenter in the US coming summer (already got my letter of acceptance from Iowa). If all goes well after my student visa (sounds weird coming from an 'old' guy) is over I hope to be able to get an immigrant worker visa and stay officially in the US. All I want in the future is to find a plot like that and build my own home (A-frame or a similar tiny home), then make a living of that using recycling materials and offering off-grid solutions (solar, rain water, etc ...). In any case, you just earned a subscriber and I am looking forward to see what you're making of it.

sounds like they seen you coming, just tried bending you over, 76,000 for lumber what are you building.

nice work!

Congrats! Nice progress!

He was so sissy swatting at that mosquito like a girl throwing a ball!

Americans and their wooden houses 😅 Wait till they hear about BCA or brick 🧱

At 30 sec into video, a shot of a vintage newspaper with a headline that reads, "Stepchildren literally eat like pigs". Lol. . .

I’m a account and I have casually been looking at building my own house for years and the numbers don’t ever add up correctly

Great video and insight. Thanks!

I think you are wrong in so many conclusions. Maybe your architects were a bad choice. Some things might be true, but if you choose to make a boring qube, of course this is the most easy to build, thats why most people just do that. If you want to stand out on social media, maybe there are even more problems to be solved.

This video is pretty dumb. What sort of weird ass niche audience is this for? Who is specifically looking for a video about why an A frame isnt good for Airbnb investment? 😂

I hate that girls voiceeeeee It is so garbageeee Feal bad for the dude even Dislike videooo

Congratulations on the birth of your child. And on your new home. Sounds like you've got a good plan lined up.

we bought an a-frame in northern michigan! ua-cam.com/video/G5jW4iIGcEs/v-deo.html

Environment schemviironment steel, less surface, builder just wanted to put it to ya

was expecting what you should build???? other than an A-frame cabin....what happen???? AirB&B ????

Where can I find the floor plans?

Another way to go is the arch design. I have seen this being done with steel for the arches, and end up with more room than a a frame.

I love A-frames ❤! Especially ones built in the 1960's and 70's!

😂

Congratulations!!! how's the pregnancy going? So excited for you Your family's reaction gave me tears ❤

Awesome tips in this video, thanks for sharing so much and congrats on getting this piece of land

Why were you even considering an a-frame? It makes absolutely no sense for your application and this video isn't useful to anyone except those who are in your exact situation which probably only a small fraction of people considering building one.

You guys were going to spend a fortune on architects rather than just deciding on a plan and building it and getting people to build it. Stick to social media. That's what you know about and nothing about building.

Most people just want to build an A frame to save $ on a good home and you come along whining about your A frame competing with others. lol.

The wells gonna cost almost double on the mountain. If your letting the contractor (builder) hire the subs its definitely gonna cost $$ you did all the leg work y not buy the meterials and hire the subs could save lots and research the meterials zip is high labor and wont be warranted if you dont fallow manufacturer installation

Thanks to all the comments, I saved myself from watching the video.

Thinking of building an A frame in northern Michigan using a kit. Maybe near harbor springs or up by cheboygan to be used as an STR. I know you were going to build and was too expensive. What were builders asking per sqft to build?
