Housing shortfall, costs and affordability

[mastermind]

This will be interesting to see if it takes.  There have been some similar attempts in the past and nothing has really taken off yet as far as I can tell.

I love how they say "an empty lot in the morning will be a near-finished housing development by the end of the day with the help of a crane".  What about the foundation?  And once the prefab house is installed, what about services and landscaping, and probably a roof?  I mean technically they did say "near-finished" but their statement is a little bit over the top.

That's fair - it is really the stacking/assembly is done in under a day. So a the empty lot should read as an empty foundation. Services are all done prior to stacking (similarly with landscaping usually) and the roof is installed in the factory. There's roughly 4 weeks of work done prior to the one-day stacking. Still much quicker and less distruptive than traditional construction.

Makes sense.  Less construction time for the neighbours to experience for sure.  When will we get to see a few get built and see how they perform.
