Seriously... AG1 is no joke. I dare you to try it!

@Keasbeysknight Месяц назад

If I was wanting the Pacific bin look, I'd just make it out of wood and clad the siding in something like roofing material that gave the look without all the hurdles. Best of both worlds. The idea of reusing something like a shipping container is awesome for people worried about waste and who want to reuse a product, beyond that, to me , the benefits arent there. Great video, though and I look forward to the next buildings you make.

@carlcarter4084 Месяц назад

Devon, I really appreciate your brutal honesty and thoroughness of your videos in detail, your container home builds are truly awesome and beautiful, keep up the wonderful builds Devon!

@devonloerop Месяц назад

Thanks so much! Just trying to be real. Love chatting it up with you guys about all stuff building. I seriously love this stuff

@user-nv4mj5rb4n Месяц назад

Factory built homes are the way to go. Mass production efficiencies, proven designs, engineering and manufacturing techniques.

@suckitupbuttercup24 11 дней назад

Yeah if you want to live in a cookie cutter cheap looking home with no style

@marcelcicort9671 10 дней назад

My thoughts exactly. Realized this many hears ago when I've seen the customization costs also having a background in working with steel, welding, etc..

@josephjoe9088 Месяц назад

So are there any benefits in using a container for a building if you are not doing a simple block I guess for lack of definition. Great job BTW It really looks beautiful

@Natedoc808 12 дней назад

AG1 is great, as is framing out of lumber instead of shipping containers

6) Poor resell value

@devonloerop 11 дней назад

Just got an appraisal and it valued 10% higher than comps in the area. The structure greatly exceeds building code because it's a custom structure. Plus I'd never sell it as a single family home as I'd sell as part of my business, which a multiple on the income will make the resale way higher than a single family home.

@KitanaCollins 8 дней назад

@devonloerop 😂 great comeback

@MossMini 8 дней назад

Very sure home buyers are looking for Container box style homes. Should be easy for you to sell when you're ready to let go. I'm not an expert. My prediction: container built homes will age like milk.

@lyudmilatarusova Месяц назад

Yeah. This is the hard truth, but they're still awesome.

@msnpassjan2004 Месяц назад

2:10 Do you need closed cell spray foam both inside on the ceiling and outside on the roof, or can you just do the roof?

@sule_imani 24 дня назад

Other than cost, all the other issues could be solved by having an architect running the project. When you do something you've never done before of course it's going to be difficult. That is true for most things. But for a qualified professional it's fairly straight forward

@ltarmenia4ever 6 дней назад

I wonder if it would work as a grandparents unit. Put two down in the backyard sort of thing as place to live when my parents retire. There's a shipping container place like 4 miles down the road from me, so I've been thinking about it.

@ItsDaJax 20 дней назад

I'm interested in building and designing shipping container homes, and through all these videos, I've came up with some improvements and work arounds. Some designs and layouts work better than others. One key is as a home, not making them more than they are, they aren't supposed to be luxurious and elaborate, you're working with something utilitarian and being repurposed as a home, the same way a school or warehouse/factory would be. Also one could use fiberglass insulation-- various busses use it.

@devonloerop 20 дней назад

Wrong, absolutely do not use fiberglass insulation. You will 100% have mold problems if you do. Also, I built a unique luxury short term rental property not a conventional home for a single family to live in, if you know the short term rental space, unique and luxury is a very nice market to be in. :)

@ItsDaJax 20 дней назад

@@devonloerop I understand what you're saying. As far as the fiberglass goes; it seems transit and school busses, and coaches use it with no problem, from the tear downs I've seen, is there a difference I'm not seeing? I'm no expert, I'm still learning these things. Could it be busses are just tighter built?

@ricmucha9096 Месяц назад

Thanks for the tips

@devonloerop Месяц назад

Of course!

@hermesperez3905 24 дня назад

I know you sell the plans but would you consider writing a book? I think it would be helpful to many people including tradespeople. Just a thought. Thanks for all your advice.

@arlingtonbutler9511 14 дней назад

I'm currently wrapping up a first if it's kind 5 container home on a remote Cay in The Bahamas 🇧🇸. It's been a steep learning curve for sure and challenging endeavor for my construction firm and the client. I'd advise that persons do their homework and be prepared to have to be creative in their build...

@devonloerop 12 дней назад

congrats on wrapping it up! The world needs more container homes. Research is so key! Especially in hot/cold environments.

@xo.caribella6400 2 дня назад

I would like to no how it turns out as I also am from the Caribbean; interested in one and worrying about the heat cause well you know 🥵

@carolyngarcia6292 Месяц назад

If I buy the plans will it be ready to take to the permitting? Because this bypasses an architectural design, is that right? Would I still need a structural engineer? So this would save me on needing to hire an architect?

@devonloerop Месяц назад

You'd have to check with your local building department on what's required as it's different all across the country. But most times you'll need a local engineer to stamp the set with your address confirming that everything as it's drawn is acceptable for the plot of land you own. But everything in the set I'm selling what all I needed to get my building permit issued.

@dharryg Месяц назад

Thank you for the honest appraisals derived from your personal experiences. Well do e!

@devonloerop Месяц назад

of course! not many people transparent about the negatives of these homes.

@pnwpaths2925 Месяц назад

My biggest question is how much did you have saved when you started this process? I got a decent amount in stocks and I am tempted to pull the trigger on some property but it’s a big leap of faith it seems 😂

@devonloerop Месяц назад

I had about $150k cash on hand! I say go for it. It's scary no matter what!

@davidcantu9727 Месяц назад

Love your stuff and get so excited anytime I see a new vid!

@devonloerop Месяц назад

Will be ramping up to 2 videos a week by end of the year. Big things planned!

How does work in the Caribbean context? Has anyone from the Caribbean done this? I'm talking about Windward Islands Caribbean (Dominica, St. Lucia, Grenada, SVG).

@iankear736 7 дней назад

In a union carpenter, i want to say a guy I knew got a container for dirt cheap at the end of the job, it had some dings but nothing else, they just didn’t want to transport it so he took it off their hands for like 500 bucks or something along those lines

@devonloerop 7 дней назад

wow, $500 is a great deal

@matthewsemenuk7544 6 дней назад

Very Nice place tho. Im sure there are a lot of budget friendlier, rougher, builds.

@WRIGHTWAY5280 14 дней назад

Im looking to possibly purchase a container home that is finished inside but isnt plumbed. Will it be more difficult to add it at this stage?

@devonloerop 12 дней назад

Ehhh, idk if I'd do that. Kind of backwards processes there.

@ListedInTheSouth Месяц назад

Lots of trials & tribulations, however, it was worth it in the end.

By the time you build an insulated interior and windows you have built a house anyway. The only thing you save is siding

Go check out my cost breakdown video, it's super detailed. Took about 9months from permit to first guest staying in the home.

@taurianferguson 13 дней назад

Hypothetically, could you have built this home out of wood and just used a metal panel exterior for the look?

@devonloerop 12 дней назад

Sure, but it still wouldn't have this exact aesthetic. It was nice having a lot of the structural work already done with the containers. Plus the home is super durable!
