McMansion build cost breakdown - total cost $1.47M
I hate McMansions but I also hate posts implying that building with wood is bad.
Wood is more efficient to build with. I live in a mid-rise apartment building made with wood (besides the first floor which is a concrete podium). I'm ready for us to start building wooden high rises like the Japanese and Scandinavians, it could be much more efficient that steel, which will make it cheaper to add dense housing (currently, high rises can only be built if they expect to get ~3k in rent per unit due to the high costs of construction, making mid-rises more economical here).
It's clearly ragebait.
I dont care for the wood interior but these mcmansions are so fucking ugly. Why dont americans make houses like everyone else?
Yes, wood is Kino.
Yes, that house is bad
Y
why don’t americans don’t do things like normal people
they live in their own Kingdom of Oz and have no time for such preposterous activities
i dated a girl who would spend hours playing the sims and she would just add on to the default house
it always ended up looking like that
makes Americans lose their minds.
you would be using lumber if you didn't cut down all of your forests already
$87,000 on cabinets
?
>makes Americans lose their minds.
Bricks and foreskins
I'm coping & seething right now, unironically.
I thought the same thing. Maybe they're custom? Some things on this list are kind of weird but I don't do construction.
not sure why it even matters when Europeans today will never be able to even own a home and they will have to rent a cuckbox for the rest of their lives
It doesn't make us lose our minds, it just cost more money.
Many people do build with brick and stone, and they pay more to do so.
You could say it lasts longer, and that's true, but that assumes that we will still be using whatever it is that is built in 50 years. There are a lot of high rise office buildings that were built with steel to last for a long time, that currently are majority vacant and will likely be torn down because the type of office buildings people demand today are not the same as what the built 60 years ago (new office buildings still get built and have low vacancy). So building to last forever isn't always the best option, sometimes the best option is to build what is most efficient now.
That's exactly what Japan does and why their housing is pretty inexpensive. Their buildings are only built to last 30 years. Of course you will never anybody complaining about that on Anon Babble
brain dead mutt doesn't even know how green it is here
you don't even use proper wood lol
oh look the dutch dude who seethes about america 24/7 has entered this thread
I live in a wood apartment and it isn't bad at all. I never hear my neighbors.
Any noise you hear is coming through the window anyways, it doesn't really matter what material the structure is built with.
green means big lumber industry
lol
euros are obsessed with brick houses
even though they hate suburbs
not to mention they live in apartments and can't afford houses
our wooden houses are nothing like the cardboard shit you mutts make
seethe about america some more bud
so why worry when you can't buy houses in your euro country
bricks are even more expensive
this wood is toothpicks
then drywall in a 1.5 mil house, seriously?
they also included attached garage sheds to the total house size, which is at least 120 of total 668 being pulled out of their ass
if not for the sanctions, i'd easily deliver you a better metric frame-panel house that you would be able to put together on the pre-paired foundation in less than a week after delivery for 1/3 of the price, with CBPB panels inside and outside, copper or red clay tile roof, and siberian frost ready outer walls insulation, that would easily get you trough any hurricane, cold wave or "forest" fire and would be perfectly repairable after any flood
i'd throw in 4-6 12-meters fireproofed glued carrying beams to make a large hall in the center of the house for an extra 25000$ (or anything smaller, but still — the mansion needs a hall, a library and a man's office space)
i'm glad there's someone who knows about home building herhe
yes we suffer in america the land of scammers
why are europeans so obsessed with our houses? is it because they live in cuck sheds or what
american housing is not so much scammers, as it's built around increasing the utility and service prices, completely disregarding any needs of the inhabitants
and americans let it slide because they've never lived in a proper houses before WW2 ended, and the rich boomer generation, that got money from pillaging of the third EU, have set the standard, that you're trying to fancy now
it's as retarded as your hate towards boomers, who supposedly squandered all your "earned" wealth
you earned nothing of it, and your standard of living is not getting lower, it gets closer to normal
with your norm being the picrelated and a vegan beans diet from the corporate town's soup kitchen
Pic related would cost at least 3 million to build today
as it's built around increasing the utility and service prices
do you think paco and friends are getting kickbacks from regional electric companies?
the government rolls out billions of dollars of incentives to build energy efficient housing to the point that it's borderline impossible to avoid.
i swear to god, retards will just say random shit that doesn't even make sense to sound conspiratorial and then posit it as true. it must be true, because it's vaguely conspiratorial you see.
and americans let it slide because they've never lived in a proper houses before WW2 ended
literally what the fuck are you talking about?
and the rich boomer generation, that got money from pillaging of the third EU, have set the standard
new build quality standards tanked in the 70s with the global recession, not the late 40s.
8200 ft^2 is huge (760 m^2)
What do you think it would cost to build a brick house that large in your cunt?
what do you do in a 760 square meter house that you can't do in a 300 square meter house
4 kids rooms/guest bedrooms: 30*4 m2
master bedroom: 40 m2
living room: 80 m2
bathrooms: 10*3 m2
kitchen+dining area: 30+50 m2
garage: 50 m2
closets: 10*3 m2
corridors: 50 m2
that's 480 m2 and I think I exaggerated pretty much every room beyond what you could possibly need
no theater
no gym
only one kitchen and one dining area
didn't account for 1 or more pantries
no sitting room(s)
only 3 closets
no foyer
i can tell you've never hosted a large party
this McMansion must be something like 50% garage
Mcmansions doesn't have basements. Also he got robbed blind on those cabinets
Mcmansions doesn't have basements.
yes they do. whether or not you have a basement depends on what part of the country you're in.
They also say the drywalling costed more than electricity or plumbing so I don't think it's true
I just want to own a small place I don't need a fuckhuge home with a ton of extra space
You WILL own a castle just to raise a single child in it, and it WILL cost you multiple years of accumulated salaries.
found house for sale
50k
bought it
wood isnt bad at all. but there is a great difference in norwegian wood houses and american. one will last an eternity, one will fall over if you look at it.
mfw i live in a beautiful red brick home built in the 1950s
solid brick or brick veneer
oh i do say, how pedestrian of me, forsooth
none of the prices ended in 2, 3, 4 or 8
Their buildings are only built to last 30 years
That's a feature not a bug, forces buildings to be updated, crucial in seismically active regions.
t. living in a fuck ugly francoblock that's falling apart even without any earthquakes
just like in my resident evil vii games
