Do shipping container homes hold value?

• <div><p>Yes, shipping container homes have a very high resale value if they’ve been well maintained over the years. You can resell this home similar to how you’d resell any home. The value depends on the market and the condition. As a bonus, you can transport many container homes depending on the design, which makes them easier to sell if the local market is challenging. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to build a log cabin?

• <div><p>How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-it-take-build-house.htm">timeline to build a house</a> is typically four to 12 months.</p></div>

Q: What qualifies as a guest house?

• <div><p>To <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-guest-house.htm">qualify as a guest house</a>, a structure needs to meet your local building code requirements. In some locations, a guest house must be a separate residence from the primary home. In other locations, you may be able to connect the two buildings and still call the second building a guest house. However, a structure doesn&rsquo;t often need a minimum size to qualify as a guest house.</p><p></p></div>

Q: How long does it take to build an in-law suite?

• <div><p>How long it takes to build an in-law suite will vary by type. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-an-addition-take.htm">time it takes to build an addition</a> will typically be less than for completely new construction. Expect to spend about two months if you convert a basement, attic, or other existing room in your home. New structures can take up to five months, plus up to two months to receive the required permits. </p></div>

Q: Are there different types of building permits?

• <div><p>Yes, many kinds of building permits exist for various projects in and outside your home. Each city sets the permit categories, but they typically cover new construction, alterations, and demolition. For example, you will need a different <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-you-need-a-permit-to-finish-a-basement.htm">permit to finish a basement</a> than you would tear down the patio.</p></div>

We were not impressed. We decided not to use this builder. Not a custom builder. They wouldn't make changes to house plans, not even for a price. Also beware everything is a "up grade".

Larry did not build our home right. The foundation was done incorrectly. There is a long list of things that were done incorrectly and I want to warn other people not to use him. We have had to spend a very large amount of money to fix the problems with this house and we even took him to court.

"We started out with a simple request to replace some siding and ended up using Barry and his team for everything, and let me tell you, they have been AWESOME throughout this entire process! He and his team have repeatedly gone out of their way, every step of the way, to make sure that we're not only getting what we asked for, but also to ensure that the work was being done correctly, quickly, and at a reasonable price. They didn't just patch things up outside, they've completely restored this home. It's even better now than it was originally! It's simply amazing to see the absolute transformation this house has gone through in such a short amount of time and we could not be more satisfied with the job they've done! I would highly recommend Barry and his team for any project you have - literally, ANY project - these guys can do it all! Just give him a call and get that free estimate, you won't be disappointed. Also, everyone on the team was great, but I need to give a special shoutout to Michael - he was out there through the entire project and had some amazing recommendations that really took the remodeling phase to the next level! Just another reason you can't go wrong choosing Homeworx."
