I got their price list. It starts from $144,200 for 1400sqft 3 bedroom 2 bathroom.
The highest price is $269,600 for 5bedroom 4 bathroom 2520sqft
The one in the thumbnail of this video costs $161,900 and it's 1557sqft.
Feel free to pin this
So, $104 per square foot of living space. Not bad but would need to know about the level of quality in the bathrooms & kitchen. "Where the water flows --- The money goes."
is that fully finished? and then on top of that you would need to pay transportation and actually assembling it on-site?
Thanks for posting the price range. This at least gives us (me) an idea on figuring out a rough budget. Cheers from Toronto.
I don't know what Florida's prices are like but the price per square ft seems perfectly reasonable .
Is that including delivery and foundation?
Just watched this a few hours ago and I was like “WHATT, on Miami!?!?” That’s where I stay… looked it up immediately and I drove down there… it’s in the industrial side of Opa-locka… and I just got out of the place. large facility and though they were about to close Jennifer received me and my wife with no appointment. She explained how they work and their payment structure… (General contractor required) a bit pricey but these are turn key ready… we say their outside model and this was just a dream… exactly what me and the wife are looking for… and your right… the have a BUNCH of different models in their catalog. They asked how did I hear about them and I told them and showed them your you tube channel… They laughed and now knew why they been having such high call volume in the past day or so… Kerry… thank you so much for the on-site as this is literally only 25 minutes from my home!!! Your the best and keep them videos coming!!!
How much did they quote you?
I've seen some negative comments online about the general contractor related things about this company.
All I'm trying to figure out is at the end of the day, how much would it cost to go ahead with this company; vs just the traditional way of building the houses.
@@sarpkaya1786 well… she didn’t quote me a specific amount but more like a range… 110,000 to 160,000. And they did say that they do not sell directly to the public but only to a general contractor of there’s or your own. All units come fully finished except with the appliances. And the turn around time is 6-8 weeks. Everything is built at the factory including the inspection.
Hey Franklin! That’s awesome, thank you for sharing this 🙌🏼
That's all so coool.....i thank you for sharing too. it's really good to hear from people who are able to have contact with the business directly in person and tell us the details of their experience.i think the price range is great and it makes sense now why they don't just quote prices...where there are a lot of options and work with a general contractor. This is really helpful info.
Thank you for the details. I'll definitely contact them then! I wanna know if there are houses that they've completed that I can go and see
LOVE that last 2 bedroom model! I am a Floridian, and bug proofing and hurricane
Protection are a must, so two thumbs up! Also an A+ for square walls!
Glad you like them!
How much are these houses?
Kerry, Thank You Thank You Thank YOU !! Formosan Termites are all over the northern gulf of mexico and coming to a theater near you Soon. They are a horror show. The colonies are hundreds of times the size of terrestrial termites and they FLY in, so no ground treatment helps. They eat the house, the book shelves and the books! I am not joking. A patient of mine brought in just such a book after her home was demolished by the bugs. No insurance covers the loss.
Steel or concrete are the only way to go now, at least in this area. I saw a 5 year old home get eaten recently.
This steel is wonderful. THANK YOU KERRY !!
Yikes! That does sound like a horror show 😱
I've been building with them for the last 5 years, it's an incredible product it's giving me and my team flexibility to look for additional lots to continue construction. Their professionalism and product is above any in the industry. They are the real deal incredible family business. I've built the Rose, the Sunflower, the Lily and the Sunflower duplex. They've all worked incredibly for me. My final completion once the homes arrives is between 30 to 45 more days to get the final C.O.
Once you're hooked you can't build any other way. For me it's been less stress seamless and streamline. Would highly recommend them.
Thanks for the feedback
Where are you building with them?
how much does the lily cost, and do you need a specific builder to install them?
Hello, are you a general contractor using them as your builder? I am looking for a general contractor in south Florida.
I may just have to buy one :)
Very nice-looking homes.
I hope they give you some prices soon.
I like the idea of steel construction especially since termites can't eat them !
I guess hurricane resistant is pretty important too, especially in Florida. 😏
I wonder about how the humidity affects the steel.
South Texas gets hurricanes also.
I like the first one, these are really a good idea. They take the Manufatured Home or Double wide and turn it into one better that stick built. They are probably manufacturing the tiny homes as well. Even a 500 is good size. I owned a home that was 660 ft, 2 bedroom, 1 bath from the 1920s. That house was really bult well, it had even been moved and had no way to tell it. I REALLY like that they recycle metal from Cars. Sustainable all away around.
Glad you like it Deni!
I’ve been waiting for this. Learned so much. Thank you for putting Steel Homes on my radar, Doppler that is.
Haha thanks for watching 😂
OMG OMG OMG how have I totally missed this company.
Kerry is the KING of finding these excellent companies!!! Thanks again Kerry great job!!! Excellent in fact!!!
So true... The undisputed king.
Thank you 🙌🏼
@@maryrobinson7590 agree...the best of any.
Thank you for finding this company, I like the look of these homes!
Glad you like them!
Just love the modern look of these homes!
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching
Another great video!! Thank you!! Time to go south and enjoy the sun!!
I grew up in Miami. My mother still lives there. I love the modern look and the steel frame. The three bedroom one is my favorite. I went and subscribed to their Instagram. Definitely a company worth keeping an eye on. Great update Kerry. 😎
Thanks for watching Billy 🙌🏼
Those are really nicely sized kitchens! If you have to live somewhere, you don't want cooking to be any more of a trial than necessary, and a lot of smaller homes ignore the need for cabinets/pantry space, as well as prep space, not cluttered with things like coffee makers. You need space to put your daily-use stuff.
So I'm guessing that if they are hurricane resistant then should be tornado resistant. Live in tornado alley so this might be something to consider. I love the modern style homes. These are gorgeous!
Glad you like them
No such thing as a tornado safe structure. The force of a tornado will rip anything to shreds.
Thanks for finding this company. Im in FL and people keep moving here so its needed.
My pleasure 🙌🏼
Great floorplans and designs! Looks like they will last a while, hurricane or not. Thanks, Kerry! 🙏👍
Thanks for watching Joe!

@KerryTarnow do they ship overseas?
Now that lumber is so expensive steel construction is becoming a viable alternative.
Good point!
I have been looking for quite some time for different systems.... Container homes, domes, modular. This company makes sense - will have to see the prices.... There is another company in Florida, called American Ingenuity. They sell concrete domes for assembly. Hurricane and tornado resistant. I drove two hours to see the factory. I like their reputation and ethics. They have been in business for decades. They sell the kits for assembly on site. *PLEASE consider doing a video on them*. Glenda is a straight shooter, no-nonsense, old school (in a good sense) decent business owner.,..
Interesting, will check them out. Thanks!
Love this concept.
Glad to hear!
They are getting super stylish!
Right?
I absolutely love the Magnolia!!!
870 sq ft would work for me....Would love 1000 or closer to that but 870 is really ok or even good...depending on lay out and storage space.... so I am delighted to see this . If could afford it , I would love the duplex idea to rent and help pay for it. Another awesome find with some good points you brought up that this kind has to offer and that make it a possible preference over others we have seen...tho w/o prices is hard to assess that...i appreciate just knowing about these for now. Thanks Kerry...you're so good to us with finding and showing and explaining these.
Happy see what the prices are. Currently live in FL
Love these!
Glad to hear!
Well done, kerry.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Another interesting build. I like the steel framing.
You and me both!
You are adorable! Love your humor!
Thank you for bringing us this video! I am interested in this company.
Thanks Karen! appreciate the kind words
Thanks Kerry.
Thanks for watching
In these times where a regular Home is way over cost (due to High APR's Mortgage loan additional costs) I know that small home to Tiny Home builders will flourish...Thank you for adverstising these small homes; They are not only cost savings but they are easier to care for and leads the owner to have more money in their pocket to go out and do things in LIFE. :).
Problems exist - they use wood because it is cheaper. Most likely they won't be cheaper.
Love the Orchard model. I plan on contacting them. Thanks for the heads up.
Hi Kerry, 🤠✌I,m vibing in the snow
Haha me too
Now this wins over "wood" constructed especially with Hurricane Resistant lightweight steel construction. I'm on the East coast (VA) so I'd feel a lot safer and wouldn't have to one day worry about Termites either. The 1st home looked like something I'd be into but I'll check them out to view more. Thanks for exposing these to us.
The Steel seems to have so many more advantages, with few downsides. This will be the one I look at to build in the next year! Thanks Kerry!
Thanks for watching
actually the main problem with steel is that it work hardens EXTREMELY easily . im from the caribbean and having been threw so many huricanes i can gurantee that the back and forth rocking motion of the house caused by the winds will work harden the steel at any flex points and it will snap
thats why in the caribbean when you hear hurricane resistant house you hear about concrete construction
Great Video. Florida Builder for twenty years. Most restrictive building codes in America.
Thanks for watching
Really nice home.
Live in FL so hurricane quality and no bug!
You bet!
Wow this one makes so much common sense that every climate in the United States could benefit from the steel framing and it’s no doubt ridged enough to take on Mother Nature!
Glad you like it!
Thank you.
🤝
thanks for the post -
You're welcome!
Thanks Kerry!
❤️🌵☀️⛈️🌈☮️🐎
Thanks for watching Laurie 🙌🏼
I agree steel frame modulars make sense, but really the styles shown look like doublewides or 50's modern. Do like the idea of homes on stilts.
you crack me up! lol
love your channel too.
Thank you 😀
Going right to the site after this vid!
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Love the "home hack" idea 💡 😀
Yeah!
great idea
Glad you think so!
Definitely updates on this please! Looking to possibly do a home like this but in North GA. Any companies that service that area will be greatly appreciated as well! Thank you!
Will do!
Nice find! Like the 870 sq ft.
Thanks 🙌🏼
I'm in Volusia county in Florida three miles from the beach I would love one, I'm in a 1972 mobile home so you just can imagine the amount of storms I've been through in this thing,
Probably a bunch! glad its held up for you
Great to watch from FL with hurricane expected to hit in about 5-6 hours. Thunder rolling in now. We sure could use this soon. 🙄
Yikes, stay safe!
Shivering black bell thumbs up, I would like to hear about placement in Ohio, Indiana, areas of East to Midwest.
Thank you Kerry 😊
Will see what I can find there!
the duplex is on my radar
Great, now I can tell where the t-shirt ends and the chair begins; it was messing with my eyes. I kept thinking about those Birds-of-Paradise that fan out their midsection feathers, and dance around. Thanks.
Haha! Yes, I had enough complaints something had to be done 😆
I like the Lilly!
Glad to hear it
What a cool way for you to get in the reminder to tap the like button..lol...and what's also funny is I was just thinking , "How can we get more likes for these vids...they are so good and deserve much more of those 'likes' . All my family and friends have their homes but me so i can't get them to watch too much ...Hope some other folks come up with some ideas or get more folks to share with ...and who watch and like. Maybe it just takes time.
400 years ago Pilgrims landed near Plymouth Rock.
30 years ago and just before Al Gore built his beach mansion in Del Mar, California, he flew around the Globe burning untold massive amounts of Carbon preaching sea level rise. Checked Plymouth Rock lately?
Yep, its still right where the Pilgrims found it.
I already contacted this company, Will mention I learned about them on your channel....
Thank you 🙏🏻
Wowza!
thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Pumicecrete is by far the best building material on the planet Pumicecrete is a mixture of pumice cement and water mixed and poured into a set of reusable forms walls are poured from 12"to 24" thick pumicecrete is fireproof termite proof rust rot and mold hurricane and tornado proof and has a high R value and good sound attenuation solid poured walls means no critters can live in your walls Pumicecrete can be built for a fraction of the cost and time and pumice is one of the few building materials that can go directly from the mine to the job site ready to use without any additional possessing and zero waste
Google all the walls of my house are made of pumicecrete
Thanks for another great video. I hope these companies start giving you referral link$ for all the free advertising you provide for them!
That would be cool!
Agree..they should ...
I like it👍
Goad to hear it
Nice video.
Thanks!
Heavy snow, yes sireebob.
Thanks for watching Jenny!
I’ve asked about 3 times for pricing and they never got back to me. I love that it’s local and meets everything I’m looking for. I just wish their customer service was better. If you find out pricing let us know!!!!
Will do!
We had incredible service so did our neighbors we just called and they sent over the cost.
@@sunshineyellow-mo2on that’s good to hear! I reached out last year summer & fall but no luck. Do you mind sending me the pricing?
@@melaniec5909 i’m wondering the same...you’d think it’d be easy to get the actual damn price from the company selling something but i guess that’s too much to ask...
Thank you. Looking for a 200-300 sqft cabana style with a bathroom. South Florida here.
Great content
Kerry....your humor gets me😂😂😂 doplar...bwaahhh😂
I was wondering if you could do a video of the all the manufacturers in the U.S.
And their locations. You have a wealth of information and I'm very appreciative. Thank you for all your research.
Haha glad you’re enjoying the videos! I will try to get a list together 🙌🏼
Nice for hurricanes but what about the water hurricanes create because its one level will the door and windor be durable enuff also to block out water?
Sooo I live in miami and have a few properties that I wanted make additions on. I worked with steel modular for about a year (live close to their factory) At first it seems all roses and bubbles until you dig deeper. years ago they were averaging about $100/sq. ft. now its about 150. however the addition costs after the purchase is what took me out. 1.A GC is needed to install everything and prep the site. 2. Shipping costs are paid for by the buyer. 3. Steel prices fluctuate in the futures market however they do a good job at keeping hikes to a minimum,. Only thing I would recommend is if you already have land in SOUTH FLORIDA then it could be worth it. All Steel modular really brings to the equation is time. They can have a unit done in a matter of months if you have land. If not , it will take over a year considering they now have orders from real home builders. crazy how fast they have grown.
Thank you for the feedback!
is $150/sqft the final price of the finished house? Or just the steel framing + foundation of the house?
@@sarpkaya1786 just the unit. But comes completely finished. Bathrooms, kitchen cabinets...etc
So a 1500sqft unit with finished interior+ flooring costs around $225,000?
@@sarpkaya1786 about that. Yes.
I live in Texas and we get a lot of Hurricanes. What I like to know is do you have any in and around Houston. I live in Port Arthur, Texas which is south of Houston.
Keep these coming. I'm in FL and definitely interested in homes built for hurricanes. These designs weren't my favorite, but I'm looking for a 3-4 bd anyway.
Just need some pricing to see if they are in the ballpark of regular construction out here.
More to come!
I like videos with prices ...lol
Great video anyway. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! I post them whenever available 😃
Hola mi amigo Kerry, quisiera ver casas contenedores en la Florida. Gracias por tu trabajo. 😍😍😍 Hi my friend Kerry, I want to see contaiiners homes in Florida USA.!!! Thanks for your job.
Hi Candida, I’ll see what I can find. Thanks for watching
How does the humidity affect the steel over time
This would be good for wildfire areas as well out west.
For sure!
This is my favorite so far but how much do they cost?
Keep me updated on those prices
Hi I watch your channel and find your content extremely helpful. Could you tell me if any companies provide homes if ordered to Cyprus 🇨🇾 ? Thank you
Come on Steel homes modular give us pricing ideas... Miami/Dade county price ranges and transportation/install rates for upstate Florida too!!!
Do you have anything you would suggest for a SMALL 4br 3ba ?
Hi Kerry Do you have another builder in South Florida? Please let me know
Kerry, you always give the prices at the end. Please tell us.
😆Radar 📡.🤣😅 I subscribed
Haha 👊🏻
These are great, but the Best Hurricane Resistant houses are the ones manufactured by Deltec! And they’re located in NC, central to the East Coast.
Thanks Connie, will check them out
are these insulated and would be warm enough in Up North Cold Canada?
I saw this company before. I think they are out of Miami. And I think they are doing double stack duplexes in the Allapattah Brownsville area where there are some lots for sale that actually have models of these buildings shown in renderings.
The homes go up to 2400 ft.² actually. They even have two with a garage
They are building similar hurricane/ typhoon resistant prefab home in SE Asia. The Philippines is one such nation. As a matter of fact exteriors look similar to these American built homes. Like in Florida Asia has termites to deal with as well. Costs are less than conventional builds too. In PI homes come to build site via flat bed then assembled on site. Package options include prewired for electric, cable, internet. Other options AC, water heater, kitchen, and bathroom styles.
Interesting, do you have a name of one of them? Would like to check it out
I really like these homes. I am pretty interested in the cost of these homes? Thanks Kerry! 👏
Glad you like them!
Hi Kerry, I enjoy your channel. I will be putting up a cottage this year & am wondering if you have any prefab, modular builders that you recommend in Ontario. Thanks very much.
Check out Metaligna Modular
There are many factors to consider, but a Cat 5 hurricane does not exist alone. Flooding, tornadoes, gusts, etc. No one, no one should think they should not evacuate on a cat 5. And as a famous commedian once said, it's not that the wind is blowing, it's what the wind is blowing.
They should build more homes shaped in a circle.
Thats a good point
Even this Floridian believes these could work. Ian could not disagree
Glad to hear
Be careful. There is at least one Florida steel frame houses company that is being sued for taking deposits and not building any houses. Hopefully not the one you mentioned.
Interesting, will check it out thanks
Probably “SteelX Homes.” They we’re listing a lot, but never actually building.
Currently only available in Florida
Thanks. I wonder if fire proof is possible. All of southern california would benefit.
For sure!
Hi Kerry, Beautiful homes as usual. How will I know when you've updated your video with pricing? Thanks, I love your videos! Cilla
Just call the company direct that is how I did it and the process was smooth and they gave even more info. Or in Instagram
@@sunshineyellow-mo2on Thanks.
I've been talking about this for a few years now just didn't have the money and don't have the money to do it also expandable homes
It’s a cool idea!
Can anyone comment if there has been one built on the Gulf Coast anywhere? I want to build in the Englewood, Venice or Nokomis area.
Is there home insurance companies that will cover these prefab homes?
Love the steel frame. Any idea what the walls, floors, ceilings and roof are made of?
hi all made in galvanized steel
@@alfredorodriguez4954 Wow! That's phenomenal. Not just wind resistant then; fires limited to furnishings and greatly reduced flood aftermath issues. No termite issues. Definitely moving into the top 5 immediately.
i have a 1976 single wide in davie , fl. a community where you own the land, no rent. been wondering what i would do if it ever blew away. the orchid would be my choice plus it would fit. thanks much
Thanks for watching Ronald
Did you get the pricing on the homes
