I was wondering if the I-House is build to hurricane code and regulations for the coastal area in Bay St. Louis Ms.

Does i-house service northern Mississippi area (Oxford) and if so are there any models in the area for viewing? What would be the closest center that sells i-houses?

When will the iHouse 2.0 be available to see and to buy?

I am still interested after all these years in your product. When can I expect to be able to purchase one in Asheville, NC?

Have you considered an on site sales office? Mobile/Manufactured homes are a huge seller in Texas. I would love to be able to set up an on site sales location. With pricing so close to regular mobile homes such as Palm Harbor, etc... Seems like any easy sell.

I have owned 2 large real estate companies in the past. I have worked with hundreds of developers and sold in excess of 11 billion in closed Sales. We specialized predominatly in Condos, both Conversion and New. I worked dilligantlly with developers with floor and exterior plans as well as amenities, models, and the list goes on and on. Really,from concept to Closing. and then the crash.

Now with Sotheby's heading their HiRise Division. I, since an early age have been transfixed on the development of Mobile Homes that the typical demograph would not purchase. I have followed Clayton i-house since its announcement. I am enrolling in developer courses at Ga Tech, regarding public land reuse, affordable housing, Green Construction, ETC...

My dream is to build affordable green communities, possibly with Government grants and loans meeting the criteria that 25% must be leased as low income homes.

Practically, every developer I have met states that Development and creation is my best suit. I am just starting this new journey and would appreciate any help you could throw my way using i-house as the platform.

I see that I house will be an option in a green farm outside of Savannah. I have this obsession that I will hope will lead to large scale sustainable communities in S. Georgia close proximity to the coast for second homes or retirement home, as well as the pod concept for Student Housing

Again, if you know any experts I could network with and begin to devise my plan, I will be forever grateful.

Sincerely yours,

Mike Bugg.

I'm actually interested in the tiny Flex as an individual unit all by itself. I would love to have that option in the 'Build My i-House' section of this website. Being able to customize the decks, materials, etc. Is the Flex available for purchase on its own? Thanks! Love what you guys are creating!

So I noticed that you can get 2 solar panels or 3 solar panels and my question is: how much energy(roughly) does the 2 or 4 set hold versus how much energy the house consumes(for say a family of 4)?

We had greater than normal snowfall in the North East last winter and many structures with "flat" roofs had severe structural damage if not complete roof collapse.  I realize that the butterfly roof is not flat, however, I am concerned that the reverse pitch might contribute to greater than normal weight on the structure in a snowy climates.  Is this something that needs to be considered when reviewing our options with the i-house 2?

Is the assembly of the i-house included in the pricing quoted on line?

An example:

I recieved an online estimate for:

(I-house) $137620 + (Add ons) $38983 + (Delivery) $4635 = $181,238

Does this costs include assembly of the i-House on my concrete foundation?

Thanks, BP

 

Can the ihouse II be configured to make the large walk-in closet to be a third bedroom?  The washer/dryer could be stacked and moved to the hallway and the water heater changed to tankless.  The new bedroom would need and egress window and might have to change places with the bathroom.

Am heading to TX this weekend, and thought you had a show home in the Dallas area and don't see it listed any longer. I live in southcentral KS and am wondering where the closest model house is located. Thanks

I did the build and saved it (about 125$/sqft.). I'd be looking for a NetZero function from the house- so I checked all the options on a 1643sqft model.

I'd also want to collect rainwater with filtration and UV sanitizer- a well or biofiltered pond would be added later. The designs need a couple of greenhouses added to maximize solar heat gain- I'm assuming PV driven fans could be used to offset heating costs-100% electric of course for all utilities.

Can you send technical details for its approximation of NetZero energy useage?

Ideally all the electricity is provided by the panels (I am assuming it is based on grid connected smart metering to run the meter backwards (grid is battery)). In a remote setting I'd use a set of ponds and a pelton weel generator for electrical storage. Other than the greenhouse-  I like the idea and process very much- exterior colors and materials I'm assuming are flexible like any premanufactured home.

My purchase plans are a few years off (I'm 51 and would like to retire to the mountains).

Thanks

Mike

Can you give me contact information for sales in Arizona?

What is the specific U-Factor, SHGC and VT on the iHouse Andersen windows? Do you offer a choice, for people who live in colder climates who want a low-e window with a HIGH Solar Heat Gain Coefficient, to maximize use of solar gain in the winter?
