Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 тра 2024
- Samara recently added a new larger Prefab Home that is available in California. I have been following Samara and their Backyard ADUs since they were announced in the fall of 2022 and they've been adding to their model line to offer more options. On top of that they're now manufacturing the Backyards in house in a new facility in California and recently offered Tacos to the public. Watch to hear the latest on Samara and their line of Backyard ADUs.

Anything under 1,000 square feet shouldn’t exceed $150,000 in price
base price on our 2067 sq ft home we build is 388,600 now. Guess how much we want to make on that house when all the smoke is cleared?
Many of us live in dumps, slumlord money makers. My 800 sq ft rat hole is being listed at $120K. Depends on what part of the country, and if you are in a rural or city slum.
@@adm7890Want or will? Answer: not enough.
yea what a rip off. you could build a barndominum for that and its way bigger.
You're clearly not living in California. Single family home sales are on fire (figuratively) in the Bay Area and are selling for $1500/sq.ft.
Im a Hard NO NO NO at their ridiculous price of $400,000+.
Im in California, but the whole point of wanting to buy one of these is to save money.
You can get a stick and drywall 4 bedroom home, NEW in most states, for 400K. A really nice place with a garage and al the rest. This is insane money for prefab.
I like that your channel covers ALL sizes of prefab homes. Thanks for that.
No problem!
If they have people buying these at $414,000 they are making a killing...AND they are made in Mexico. Where is the cost coming from.
They definitely are making a handsome profit. I paid about the same per square foot for a manufactured modular home built in Los Angeles.
What are the alternatives per square foot? Tiny Home, Stick Built, Traditional Mobile Home? Pre-made sections assembled on site? And is this apples to oranges in terms of features and quality, insulation, etc. Not so simple.
Seems to be using high quality materials which have seen even higher than usual price increases. That was my thought.
But yeah, well engineered, well built with high quality materials and craftsmanship... not perfect but dang good... that's the Apple (and Tesla) playbook to secure higher margins than all others.
Hopefully it means they'll stick around and make 10,000's of homes. 🤷♂️
I was going to buy a 100 sq ft tool shed from Home Depot here in Texas and sell it in California for 150k.
Haha
just gos to show how many idiots live in commiefornia
Funny but unfortunately true.
If you add solar, a bathroom, and triple paned windows and glass sliders, it might just be worth it. In the Bay Area of California.
@@XXPYR0XXWho said anyone in CA would buy that overpriced shed?
As soon as you said it’s based in California, I knew it was overpriced.
Sunshine tax I guess
So true. I immediately tune out anything made/manufactured in over-regulated, over-priced California!
Yep!!!!
add sales tax in California
Ok now I want to see that home made hoodie 🤣
For the record I didn’t sew the material 🧵
My plan is to live in a barrel like Diogenes.
Mr. Tarnow I never fail to hit like on your videos regardless whether I like the product being showcased or not. You are doing your best at bringing attention to as many companies offering pre-fab, modular, hybrid even manufactured housing options and it’s an impossible job to do so and please everyone. The market place has been inundated by too many contestants all too willing to take advantage of current socio economic conditions and the housing crisis to make a buck, looney, peso, yuan what have you, honest or other wise, and the sad reality is that too few are rising to the challenge to be altruistic and resist the urge to hose the end user.
I am an unapologetic free market capitalist and welcome a vibrant and competitive field however Daddy didn’t raise no fool and at $518 per Square Foot for something that essentially looks like a differently dressed double wide is insanely overpriced and outrageous. This is wanton and abject avarice no matter what food bribe they throw at you, me or that individual that lives for free tacos, this is way overpriced .
Your sanguine and objective, and humor laced presentations are a joy to watch and very much appreciated for their
intent and purpose. Whether hit or miss, You manage to thread that needle every time.
These are obviously for Socal and Bay area markets. Way too expensive for anywhere else in CA.
$414,000? 😂
WTH!?!
I live in California looking to buy a Skyline mobile home 19”9’ X 48” for base price of $102,000. MADE IN USA 944 sq. Ft.!!
Why is so cheap comparing to the one in the video? What is the catch?
I and the rest of your regulars....just love what you deliver and will always give the vid a like because we always like what you do . We also want to see ur hoodie..lol...
Oh my Lord. 😱 The prices are insane. Thanks, Kerry. I love your work.
would love to see a video that outlines the cost and requirements of site prep for a prefab-
By the time you buy the lot, and all the extras it is better to buy a new home already built because you know the exact price with no hassle.
I'm beginning to dread the offerings from the pre-fab industry. Kerry, every time I start to watch one of your videos, I am hoping that you're going to tell us that it is financially within reach for someone who is not making over a six-figure salary...and then...BAM! You get to the price - 200k+, 300k+, 400k+...Not to mention that you still have to buy land somewhere to put it on. You can easily go over half a million dollars. I no longer think that pre-fab is an answer to affordable housing.
Reminds me of the post-war Lustron homes.
Very nice, Kerry. As you probably know the name samara is famous in architectural design by Frank Lloyd Wright who designed a home based on the samara, a winged maple seed, that he saw on the grounds of his client in West Lafayette, Indiana. Gotta give props to the GOAT. Cheerio.
Didnt know that! Thanks for sharing
DUDE, SUNDAY BBQ @ THE BEACH ...
It may be I am tired but I really think the prices were a nod to the "too expensive by the square foot".... Like the layout and that it is a wider home. 🤯But I just enjoy hearing you ask for the thumbs up. Thanks Kerry ! Happy Sunday! [ Sunshine tax 🤣😂] Shivering black bell thumbs up and a heart
Wait, you “MAKE YOUR OWN HOODIES?” 😂
Starting at only $414,000.
What a bargan
I'll always give you a like for your algorithm, Kerry. Having said that, I like anything LESS than 800ft2. Currently living in a 680ft2 duplex, will be moving into a 24 ft RV in June to get thru this economy for a year or 2. Thanks for all you post. Love your channel and esp your sense of humor.
Mr. Tarnow, I give all of your videos a thumbs up and subscribed, so take that for making 1st class content!
I cannot wait until your review of the tacos video. I think these are very nice homes but I don’t want to move to California to live. Thank you for sharing this information with us. Another great job. As they say in Mexicali, Merci.
Kerry, I love your sense of humor.
Thank you 🙌🏼
Sign me up for the nacho program🙋♀️🙋♀️
Can do!
So they are building double wide trailers.
That is a crazy price, looks like a barndominium to me and they are no where near that cost for that small of a one.
I live in a 24' x 36' prairie ranch house (with an attached oversize 24' x 26' shop/garage). 800 sq. ft. is a lot more livable for the average non-minimalist couple or family. Tiny homes are cute as long as you don't really own much.
Absurd pricing but that's the new norm.
Yes show us the hoodie😂
Thank you for all your research into so many homes
Fun Matters. Price Matters. Size Matters.
Just bough and sold some chinese expandable container houses to some happy customers and working on the next project here in Hawaii. $150,000 for 600sf under roof, 2 bed, 1 bath, kitchen, with 5000 watt solar, 5000 gallon water catchment, septic or compost, propane, water filtration and UV, so next to no bills! Choice of wall materials, floor, roof, etc. You can do yourself for $70k or less. 6 weeks from order to delivery and can have it up in literally ONE day! Also plenty of beautiful 40ft HC container homes from Turkey for less than 40k for 800sf. US is a ripoff right now.
This is lovely - but at least for me, when I say "bigger" I don't mean 600ft to 800 - that's barely a bedroom. I would love to see anything in the 1500 ft space personally. But I do appreciate when they are available now!
The Thousand Oaks, CA model is less than two miles from my home. I'll ride my bicycle over and check it out.
Fun does matter!
Good video!😊
Thanks 🙌🏼
Thank you Terry. Your vids are always well done. Many nachos for you to come.
Haha thank you!
The idea of these homes is not just a smaller footprint but also affordability. In CA, this might be a nice price but not in other spots in the US.
This is NOT a nice price in Cali. Unless you are in the bay area.
@6:44, put a bedroom where the living space is currently, make the bathroom shared, ditch the second bathroom in favour of a much bigger living room and tuck in a powder room for visitors.
Thanks, Kerry! I noticed the price includes installation which helps a little, but still too rich for my blood, not to mention I live in WA.
Love 'em! Good vid.
Thanks Randy
It’s a nice model. The sizes probably where many of us needed to be but the price is California ridiculous. Cheers!
Nice video
If you're charging that price, Californians should expect these homes to be built in the USA.
I want to see your hoodie! 😆 lol
A good design 🙋
Do the prices include permits, site work and installation?
😂Not a chance!🤣 Think $500,000.
Hi Kerry! Good work.
How about the foundation? I see that this models are just put over de ground, ir that it?
I would ditch one of the bathrooms and add the space to the living area.
The price is double what it should be. You could build a 2000 sq ft home for the same price. I do live by the beach in SO. CAL.
I got property that requires a minimum of 780sq ft. This is perfect.
Making your own hoodie is one heck of a skill.🏆
Free tacos is genius marketing. If/when you make it to one of their taco events, you’ll have to do a critique of their taco.🌮
The XL layout looks good. The exterior looks better with the metal option you favored. Solar panels are always worth the extra cost imo. But off grid isn’t for everyone. The front porch looks too basic for my tastes so I would do something different there. But overall it’s a good prefab home, especially internally.🏠
Rock solid update Kerry. Until the next one.😎
PRICE = OUCH!
I would like less that 700 sf with 1.5 baths... I need the .5 bath and I'd be happy (really 500-700 is my sweet spot).
Thank you Kerry for always bringing us "What's Happening" in pre-fab homes. With that said I would get a home from Recreational Resort Cottage based in Texas for $127k instead of buying this absurdly priced home from Mexico.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and tell Mr. Tiny I say hello
Nice !!
Thanks!
So much space in a tiny home used in 2 full bathrooms...?!
Is its main purpose meant for two single unrelated people to rent out and live in together?
Why else would there be a second full bath?
Does this seem weird to anyone else? I'd ditch the second full bath for a powder room/ sm. laundry and open up a lot of living room space.
You didn't start sleeping in the job until you started making your own hoodies 😂
Haha 😂
Are you now taking orders for hoodies? ... or tacos?
I just looked at their website. Their 540 sqft model starts at $284K. Way overpriced. That like luxury RV territory, for what is essentially a large shed. You can get a decent house in a nice neighborhood , in many parts of the country, for that money.
Simpler design but with solar this time, however, the cost went way up tho. With all the options will cost half a million or more for their largest model, but accounting for future family in mind so at the end it an option at least. IMO its about 4 large shipping containers which is a decent size. I would think a more modular design would be nicer option so in the future one could add or take off a section instead of the whole house.
An option is always a good thing to have, another good vid my tacos friend, I could use a few right about now.
Those are some really ones !
If I leave California do I still have to pay the California price ?
I'm glad to see you are working on the size you're presenting.
Wait, what ? 🤔 👍
I can have a custom home built for that much. I wish you gave prices at the beginning so I don't waste my time watching something crazy like this one.
The pricing is high, but it makes sense given the area they're likely going to. I dont think the pricing would work anywhere else realistically, but I hope it helps someone in Cali.
$618/sf for the studio is a luxury market price point and I’m sure these prices aren’t including site prep, plumbing and electrical
It's a matter of time before we meet brother
kerry you can do a show where u compare east coast versus west coast manufacturers? that would be very helpful
Good idea
Thanks great job! big fan!
a comparison on locations versus styles versus delivery capabilities contrasted with cost!
You have got to be kidding! Just have a metal building put up and then finish it yourself or over time. It’s a friggin box. What is the big deal?
Hmmm, California pricing. You mentioned tacos and then once again and then and then more tacos mentioned. I'd go see it just for the tacos too! Sweatshirt joke 😏
These are nice and all, but $500/ft? Even in SoCal that's steep price.
I want one but prices are ridiculous. Corps are greedy. Not ready to give to their fat pockets.
You can stick build a home here in CA for far less.
Have you researched Waterhaus by Green Pod?
will have to check that out
So if it comes from California does it work for other states? Like Texas?
Potentially, they just arent shipping there yet
$500 a square ft only works in California, Aspen and New York City,,,,,,otherwise everywhere else this is not competitive.
No, say it ain't so Kerry! Bigger homes🙀😢? Folks without kids really don't need more than 750 sq ft. And if you have a kid or two, you can always just strap 'em to the roof:). Please say you'll still show us some gems from 350-500 sq ft.🙏🇨🇦
I like the idea of bigger modular homes and think that 1,000 sq ft is perfect for a single person or a child free couple. There is room to spread out, but not to much to clean or maintain.
For those prices, I will pass😅😅
Man I know that you are just the messenger but $414 K plus!!!!! You can buy a house in LA for that money
Thats great but you need a coverd garage for your car, unless you hate your car and love sun damage. No covered parking no rent.
Thank you for the feedback
You should see what you could get for about $4,000 from Sears 110 years ago. (about 132K in 2024 money). Way bigger, two story and made from good quality materials. Many mail order homes still stand today. There were many other plans that were cheaper too. Even though there is modern efficiency of a factory built home, there is not any saving to the buyer. Certainly no reason to go into a massive long term debt.
Interesting!!
At those prices what's the point?! Might as well get on over to my realtor and buy a regular stick built! Those prices are way outta line!
I guess size really does matter 😁
Haha
👍
👊🏻
The prices are ridiculous.
The prices are for those who can afford it.
Please share!? The pattern.
Oh? For what??
The hoodie
😅
Now I want to put a taco on mine
I didn’t sew it, just the design 😆
@@KerryTarnow 😂 oops. I misinterpreted that by a mile 😳
$518/sq. ft? Is my math right?
Not thrilled at all about only 15 feet wide like a big long cigar
It is a box! No stile. I don’t live in California, and don’t plan to, but a house should have a little appeal. Even in California. They are all looking a little trailer.
New 4 bedroom -3 bath on a half acre in Elsa, Tx , finished with quartz counter tops, matching tile flooring, lot fenced....listed @ $450,000.....Facebook market place 5/18/2024
they wont sell to many outside of california at that price.
That base price too much
Noice...
Thanks!
Put a frog in hot water and it will jump right out. Put a frog in lukewarm water, gradually turn up the heat and it will drown.
See a connection?🔽
Studio $269K base price
1 bedroom $284K
2 bedroom $324K
New Backyard XL $414K
OMG
One XL is 8 Casitas
🐬🐬🐬🐬
Jumping Dolphins
Outrageously expensive...
As a guesthouse behind your multimillion dollar mansion, sure. As an ADU unit, forget it.
Well, 800 square feet are extremely tiny and look suitable for just half of a normal American and maybe 0.65 of a normal Canadian.
Haha
The prices suck! For an ADU or as a home. No thanks.
While I appreciate that this is available now, this company's prices are far, far too high. An 800 sq. ft. house should be in the $150,000 range.
Agree, there are other options for far less than $269,000.
