Yes, I agree. While I can appreciate most of the comments, we realize these homes are just one of the many choices that are out there. Thank you for leaving a comment.
These houses don't have 4 bedrooms. I wouldn't call it a "huge" problem. You know what you are getting into when you buy it. It's not like you bought something, and then it changed after you moved in. With all that said, parking could be a problem in this community for sure.
At the end of the day if there wasn’t a market for these, no one would buy them and construction would stop. Although this is not for me, I can understand how it could be an option for some
I just recently learned about these houses. I like the concept, I would definitely live in one. However, there are opportunities to make the design better and more cost effective for future versions. First, why traditional building? Why not modular? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe a single module is wider (Standard modules are 13 ft 9 in) than this house. You could make this a 30 ft long, 13 ft 9 in wide house, and make it with two (2) modules; one on top of the other. One (1) truck can carry upto 60 ft of modules, so the whole thing can br brought in one (1) trip. More space (I think), faster and cheaper to build. The roof would make more sense to me if it was a shed style. I believe shed style roofs are some of the most cost effective to make. If we are going for affordability, why not commit to affordable designs in every corner of the house? The other thing is the price. I'm not sure if these houses are worth $130K +. That's approximately $215+ per square foot! I ask why? Again, I could happily live in a place like this. It's really good for couples with no kids, and single people. Just the price has to be the biggest factor to drive me away from it.
Very well said. Lennar builds a lot of homes, but I haven't seen any modular homes. It may not be something that they want to specialize in. I agree that there are some opportunities to make these better/ less expensive. I appreciate your well thought out comment. Happy holidays
Yeah, I wish they would, too. Payments are around 1k per month for most people, so I don't think it's that bad when you compare it to the alternatives.
@davidblanco6249 they have built similar style homes around San Antonio. I don't know if they have plans to build them in other states. This community has some other styles th-cam.com/video/WuRQahG1uYQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GUm19ZabI2ZTKEn0
Why would they only offer tiny homes? There are options from less than 400 sqft to well over 4000 sqft in San Antonio alone. Not to mention custom builders and luxury homes. Don't worry, there are a lot of options.
This is clearly not for everyone, but there's definitely a market for them. My husband and I are empty nesters, and last summer we downsized from an apartment to a small house. We chose a house mainly because with our age and medical concerns, we needed a place without stairs, and that was just too hard to find in an apartment. Something like this would work nice for the 2 of us, if it weren't for the stairs. It's not perfect; there are things (other than stairs) that I would change about the design, but my biggest gripe is the price. I really feel these houses should cost less. It is true, if you go back to the 1930s, 1940s, in general most houses were smaller. It was during the 1970s and 1980s we started getting "McMansions". I never lived in one. The biggest house I've ever lived in was barely over 1,000 sq ft. And that was with a full family complete with pets all living there.
I would rather see single vehicle garages added/included with these homes than those backyards, even at a higher price point. Guess you could always built another 300-400sqft tiny home in the back yard & rent it out since there is no access to backyard from inside the house. 😉 Still, I wouldn't mind buying one of these at all if I lived in or moved to TX, as a single person with no interest in marriage or children.
When customers are asking too many questions it's usually because your AD needs to be become better, These tiny homes are 660-sqft and are listed for around $135k/ 2 bath- 1bed
@nbtxliving It's not the houses. It's not the builders. It's the price and it's the whiny realtors. Y'all are horrible at trying to sell something that's overpriced. There's sales ppl that can sell a bucket better than you can sell these houses
@IAMYOU-. , why does it matter to you? We are not forcing people to buy these homes. If you don't like it, then that's great you don't have to like them. We showcase a wide variety of homes in our channel. If you don't like these, there is bound to be something that you do like.
If anything, this is the peak capitalism. A major corporation takes an opportunity to make money in the absence of affordable alternatives. These homes aren't being forced on anyone, and there are other options all over the San Antonio area. Can you explain how this is woke? The video that you reference is just an advertisement for tiny homes.

People with negative comments about these homes never lived in the inner cities of the Northeast part of America. The yard alone sold me.
Yes, I agree. While I can appreciate most of the comments, we realize these homes are just one of the many choices that are out there. Thank you for leaving a comment.
Terrible layout, total lack of imagination from the builder, place the living space facing the back yard and open it with sliding glass doors.
Lennar really doesn't do imagination. They just want to sell houses.
my only gripe is the having to walk out the front door to get to the backyard but that wouldn't be deal breaker for me
Yes, that would be kinda annoying.
Can you do up grades, like the bathroom up stairs and down stairs
Yes, you can after purchase the builder won't do any upgrades.
There's a hugh problem with these tiny communities....
4 bedrooms
4 drivers
4 cars
Where are the space to park 4 cars...?
😳

@@nbtxliving It would be interesting if they considered partnering with a modules builder. Happy holidays to you as well!
@putnamironman yeah they already partnered with a company that 3d prints homes, so it wouldn't be that far off for them really.
I’d like to live in one of these as my first home. Wouldn’t spend more than 110k- maybe 120k tho
That's fair. It would be hard to find something around that price point nowadays
I love them 😍 as for me less is more TFS
They really can be nice, and we appreciate the minimalist style less can definitely be more.
Is there a HOA
Yeah, around 150 a year, no amenities, though
If they would sell them cheaper I wouldn't mind buying one
Yeah, I wish they would, too. Payments are around 1k per month for most people, so I don't think it's that bad when you compare it to the alternatives.
@@nbtxliving are they going else where with these tiny homes ?

My question is how much they cost to build land and materials and how much money 💰 they are making of these tiny homes 🧐lmk
Who knows... I'm sure lennar would be tight-lipped with that kind of information... just like most other builders and businesses
If the city is only offering tiny homes, I’m just leaving the city. There’s just too much land and too many places to live out here.

Thank you for your comments. I'm blown away by you saying the largest house you had was 1000 sqft that's amazing
Can I personally add a back door to the house so I can have access to my own backyard, is it even allowed? Same goes for the windows.
Yes, you can add a door and windows.
What Questions do you have about these tiny homes? Would you live in them if you were trying to downsize?
What’s the estimated resale value in 5-10 years?
It's hard to judge that because markets change as demand and supply changes. Typically, houses in Texas can see 1-3٪ appreciation YOY.
the only people complaining about these tiny homes are bitter people who just can't afford a home period!!!! stay living with ur parents. moochers
I would rather see single vehicle garages added/included with these homes than those backyards, even at a higher price point. Guess you could always built another 300-400sqft tiny home in the back yard & rent it out since there is no access to backyard from inside the house. 😉 Still, I wouldn't mind buying one of these at all if I lived in or moved to TX, as a single person with no interest in marriage or children.
Yeah, it's crazy how some of those houses have such large backyards.
In Panamà we would extend it as additional space 4 income.
@KeithCindyPanama that great 👍
If I buy it today at $160 but can’t sale it at $250 5 or 10 years. It’s not worth it.
The town house community we live in ppl rent out rooms.
You can rent it out and then sell it when you can net what you like
When customers are asking too many questions it's usually because your AD needs to be become better,
These tiny homes are 660-sqft and are listed for around $135k/ 2 bath- 1bed
Ok 👍 thanks. It's not like the original video had all of that info in it.
You didn't cover the most important part
It's the ridiculous price
That's just someone's opinion. There are many other options. So if you don't like the price you don't have to pay it.
@nbtxliving
It's not the houses. It's not the builders. It's the price and it's the whiny realtors.

Crack houses are bigger than this 😂
Ugh, that is a lame joke. You can do better than that.
lol 😂. I agree. Looks like a prank to us.
Families should Buy land and add on as they live. You can’t flip this .
This would be ideal for some, but not something that everybody wants to do. These houses are just a choice if it's not your choice then that's fine.
