    I liked the interviewer. She was so friendly and her questions were what I would have asked. The house is very nice. Well done to them for building this.

      You can admit easily that the home owner / builder was very attracted to the host in a sexual manner. I mean I can't blame him she it's rather nice. But that human connection was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Cool house though none the less

    I like that you don’t get to see the plumbing pipes and the house is simple. My understanding of the A frame is that it’s ideal in places there’s snow so that the snow does not accumulate on the roof.

    ‼️ 1. He took credit for bringing the idea of the A structure build, when Africa has built with A structures for centuries.
    2. How did his family get to own the land that his wife referred to? She also referred to foreigners abroad being the main people who stay there.. 🤔 So subtly / passively existent there. Interesting. From NYC, love to all. Bless.

      @margaretwanjiku3621 ปีที่แล้ว

      Why A-frame? It is a cheaper way to building using local materials, and combining the roof with the walls. The fact they are good for snow is an advantage that just doesn't apply in this case.

  • @clintonelias171
    @clintonelias171 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Here in Canada we have great government regulations that help increase the build price substantially so few can afford this beautiful sustainable home. Where there is a possible cheap build, there is government red tape to increase the cost so it's no longer affordable for the low wage earners. No, no, no you're not allowed to pay off your home quickly on a labour salary, at least not here in Canada. High prices rule and you're not allowed to own property outright, only the house, then yearly property rental agreement,(known as property tax).
    This home itself will be $70 to $100kplus in Canada. We love cheap things to be expensive, the Canadian Way.

    It seems like the W.P have the best business when it comes to building in Africa..and they have a unique house that's similar to Euro and American houses. Built in 3months and now they rent it out for AirBNB..I can't imagine the amount of revenue they will generate from investing return.
    They seem to have better opportunity than the Africans that live there.

      Karen is ranked among the top 10 luxury hotspots in the world. The cost of land there is very expensive. That cost of that house is a dot compared to the price of the land it sits on. Infact, it is quite common for actual houses alone to cost much less than the land. When you add the cost of land then the property prices get very high.
