This is just another way for Lennar to cut costs, and not offer any discount to the buyer
Soooooo, you eliminate most of the labor (people) and charge half a million dollars! No thank you!
This is what I love bout Americaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
@@pavlinpetkov8984 Everybody's complaining about the price but I'm just happy they're even doing this here. China's been doing it for years to house their college students at a lower cost. America always starts slow and follows the trend of other countries but eventually, with the hope of competition in the future the price could go down (like it did with cell phones, computers, and other modern innovations) and that's a future worth hoping for.
These are so cool! We drove out today and watched (from a distance) the machine layering the concrete.
Critter resistant, fire resistant, extreme weather resistant, affordability resistant!
Remodeling resistant.
and buyer resistance, as buyers resist paying these ridiculously ugly and expensive property.
wait until you realize that they wall it and paint it
And.. they start at $475,000, great...
I thought 3-D printing was supposed to make houses cheaper?
$500K is ridiculous!!!!!!!!!! That is not even affordable for $100K earners!!!!!!
Interesting possibilities
Any new technology is going to be expensive at first.
In the early 80's VCRs were around $1000 and movies on video were around $70.
High $400k for a 1500 sq ft house?
Wonder how they'll hold up over time? Will it prone to crack with heat and cold cycles?
theres no rebar. it will crumble.
Checked these houses myself few days ago
Lennar doesn’t give flooring option (it’s difficult to have wooden flooring). There is just smoothened concrete floor . Which cracks btw and can be more over time . Checked their model home and the curves and texture seems to be bad ideas in bathroom. Also there can’t be 2 story houses. The structure can’t take it .
Overall it’s still a long way to be habitable imo
So many questions... How do fix a burst pipe? How do you hang stuff on walls & patch if you move it? What if you want to add, change, repair electrical? I have looked at several videos of other homes like these that discolor over time. And these have concrete floors too in one of the videos & it's a huge echo chamber. What are flooring options? Yuck, these are fugly.

I want some of those
Im looking for material oparater 3d
How do u finish the insides?
Its interesting and has potential but needs work like finishing easily. Right now seems very complicated to do the drywall etc. Great potential, high tech but low finish. Also the set up the machine seems difficult. Might be good as is in 3rd world countries thar need 3mergency homes
what are the cost of this 3d kind of houses
What type of that thing? Cement?
what's in lavacrete?
I heard on other videos that those 3D printed houses cost just a fraction of what building a regular house will be AND it can be build a lot faster also.
I even saw an architect saying that you could put $3500 dollars down and pay around $300/month and in 7 years will be yours instead of 30. So these guys are literally stealing your money.
We had the first one built here in Austin Tx, it took them over 4 years to build it. It is the most hideous looking thing we have ever seen. Looks like a wasps nest house😂🤣
Lol I'm a fan of the tech and it's potential, but that is both true and hilarious. 😅
They're getting better at it...
What’s the specifics on the “overtime cost less”? Does this company have a roadmap or price goal or just saying that because it sounds good. 500k is not affordable and makes one wonder what is the point of 3d printing if the outcome and price remains the same? What’s the point of this?
475,000 dollars? So whats the point then if its so much more expensive than just buying a normal one
There not selling 😮... Texas has a huge over supply of new homes sitting on the market. Unless they offer homes like this at significantly lower prices, no one will buy them, when they can get a traditional stick build home cheaper. ..its just a cement box. It sort of has the image of buying a mobile home.
Where’s the land 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Hi😊
just buy a tractor trailer and put it on a damn land
SAY GOODBYE TO DAY LABOR! NO MORE WORK AVAILABLE.
A permanent holiday.
isn't concrete production super bad for the environment? ..major source of CO2 I believe
