"I can’t recommend Kennon Crockett, P.E. enough. He’s been an incredible help through a really stressful situation with my home’s foundation and a city-side sewer line issue. From the start, he was thorough, professional, and honest — helping me avoid getting taken advantage of by a plumbing company and instead understand the real cause. He prepared a detailed, sealed inspection report and has continued to guide me step-by-step on how to get the city involved for proper repairs. He’s also been consistently communicative and genuinely invested in helping homeowners. I’ve already recommended him to coworkers and friends — and funny enough, my dad had him help years ago after Hurricane Ida which won me brownie points once he heard Crockett. That says a lot. If you want an engineer who’s knowledgeable, ethical, and truly cares about his clients, Kennon is your guy."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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. 

A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren’t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.

In-law suite floor plans almost always include at least one bedroom, a bathroom, and a combination kitchen/living room area or separate spaces for the kitchen and living room. Larger in-law suites built in accessory dwelling units separate from your main structure can feature multiple bedrooms, dining rooms, and entertainment rooms in addition to the necessities.

Whether a prefab home is worth it or not will depend on your personal needs and preferences. Overall, prefab homes tend to cost less than traditional homes, although they also tend to have lower resale values. Another thing to consider is that prefab homes usually last 50 to 60 years or longer, while traditional homes last 50 to 100 years or more.

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.
