Q: What is the most affordable house to build per square foot?

• <div><p>Ranch and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-colonial-style-house.htm">colonial-style homes</a> are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average. </p></div>

Q: What is the average size of a pool house?

• <div><p>The average size of a pool house is between 180 and 220 square feet. Small pool sheds may only be 25 to 50 square feet, while luxury pool houses you can use as a guest house can sit between 200 and 400 square feet. Consider what you&rsquo;ll use the space for and how much of your yard it will take up when deciding on the right size for your project.</p></div>

Q: What is the smallest house you can legally build?

• <div><p>This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements&mdash;windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/indoor-air-quality-testing-checklist.htm">indoor air quality</a> are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don&rsquo;t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you&rsquo;ll need to check to ensure you aren&rsquo;t violating any local or state laws with your build.</p></div>

Q: Where can you find carriage houses?

• <div><p>In the U.S., original and converted carriage houses are most often found in New England, New York, and other parts of the Northeast. New construction carriage houses can be found across the country, and are often added to properties with Colonial-style homes for additional living, storage, or work space, although they can be found in many different styles.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a modular home and a prefab home?

• <div><p>Modular homes are a type of prefab home. Specifically, manufacturers first build modular homes in sections and then deliver them to the job site. The modules, or sections, are usually at least 70% finished before they arrive on your property.</p><p>In comparison, prefab homes arrive in panels or segments, and workers assemble them on-site. Generally speaking, modular homes tend to be more durable, and their consistent construction standards may mean you&rsquo;ll have an easier time getting conventional home loans.</p></div>

Action Fencing is a top-notch fencing company! They installed a beautiful cedar fence for my yard, and I couldn't be happier. The team was professional, efficient, and paid great attention to detail. The fence looks amazing and has really boosted my home's curb appeal. Highly recommend!
