If you guys aren't connected to the BNB Inner Circle, you definitely should. The community itself is worth the expense. The Training you get is AMAZING
Cool video. I'm way over 30-40k lol. Went all out though with a 30x30 deck, it's got a septic system as well with a real shower and toilet too... Coming soon to Middle Tennessee! Highwater Glamping :)
Totally agree about the upside for glamping domes, but the cost to build the ones you referenced is actually closer to 100k per unit after the infrastructure is in place with well, septic, and electric. I stayed in the Fairview dome last summer and it really is awesome. Fun fact, the builder for the Hendersonville domes has his own TH-cam channel and he helped build the dome unit in Fairview. Channel is Blue Ridge Glamping
I think 100k might be too much, there was an episode of Building Off the Grid where a couple built everything included in the dome; bathroom, kitchen, electric, water, and it’s own power grid. They said the solar panels was the most expensive part of the build (15k-20k). And the total cost was around 80k. This was before the sky high inflation so that could have something to do with it also
Definitely more than 100k .. foundation/ deck alone can be close to that. Add hvac, build a kitchen and bathroom inside .. it adds up … but still a wildly high return
@@seanbrambleI’ve priced this out down to the cost of screws. The deck/foundation can be done for less than $30,000. HVAC mini split is $4,000. The cost of the dome unit is $15,000 then you DIY finish the inside and it can be done for $100,000.
GREAT Video James, real eye-opener. Can you share any details on your dome project in Ontario? I am thinking about doing a 30 dome project in BC as have a great piece of property for the project Thanks! Kevin
Hello, thanks for the info. A little mis leading with your price analysis with start up costs. Bringing water septic and electricity to the property is 40k alone.
I was going to comment the same thing, 40K budget for the dome is way misleading. If you add the septic, etc, preparing the land, paying the contractor, etc. It will be about 100K plus. Is the 40K budget building just for the materials? How about the labor?
I’m estimating my build at a little over 30k. I think it’s possible if you have existing septic, water and power already on the property. I have an acre with an existing home so the it will just be the build and landscaping that is expensive.
for AIR DNA, the available days means days worth of data on the listing. Meaning AirDNA has only been tracking it for 100 days. It does not mean vacancy in the year.
No, days available is the number of days that the property was available for bookings in the last 365 days. Sometimes it’s low because the listing is brand new, other times it’s low because it’s only available part time throughout the year.
People are willing to pay more for unique experiences that they’ve never had before, so sleeping in a dome where they’re immersed in nature and can fall asleep looking at the stars is worth paying more for!
The energy is different. Mind feels more at ease without corners, so you rest better, think better and feel better. Round shapes are in a sense more natural (most optimal kind of shapes in 3D space - as you can see from large and small forms in the universe), and more resembling of the womb interior and mother's breast - which is unconsciously the most safety you can ever feel. It's basically a much softer, harmonious, nourishing and safer feeling than say a knife blade ;) The subtle energy of the universe also might be flowing differently in a dome(it does in pyramids and they aren't round), because everything in essence is geometry, so aligning the structure of your home to an optimal geometry is similar to aligning your spine - instantly makes you feel much better, doesn't it :)
@@james.svetec I just got my architect plans back from my shipping container that I'm probably going to do myself on a piece of property that I've had for years. Hoping to Airbnb it. Then I want to pull the trigger on some domes or a dome to see how it cash flows. Awesome video thanks 👍
The domes on your video are from Pacific Domes Inc. They are a great company and all their domes are made in the USA with USA materials. The quality is much better than other Geodesic Dome companies so they will last much longer.
A lot of misinformation in this video. A project like this will cost you upwards of $100,000. The guy you pulled up, at the end, he paid $50,000USD just for the dome and materials not including the labour, septic tank, land, well etc.
@@86davy building one now almost finished in New Brunswick, we already spent $80,000 and will spend around $30,000 more. Septic was $17,500 plus tax Well was over $18,000 300 ft Dome was $18,000 And man…… the deck for the dome will be almost $15,000!!!!! That’s not including land, and materials!! Want a good hot tub we might need to get a self cleaning for $12,000. It’s adding up
Are you installing on an already existing property nearby? I’m doing a dome and will connect it to my septic. Or you could get a very small septic system for it. Might cost more tho.

We make in under 15k

We are in the process of building a 845 dome. Our cost is around $150k all in clusive not including the 11 acres we purchased.
The biggest thing is buying the land though.. any advice on that?
GREAT Video James, real eye-opener. Can you share any details on your dome project in Ontario? I am thinking about doing a 30 dome project in BC as have a great piece of property for the project Thanks! Kevin
I’ll be posting some more videos over the coming weeks/months going through the project in detail! Dome platform is being constructed right now! :)
I'm in Jamaica been thinking bout doin this for like 3 years now ..time to pull that trigger
We can supply you with permanent geodesic domes
@@Houbaraoutdoors WHATS THE BEST FOR DOMES IN A HOT AREA .. to prevent it from getting unbearably hot inside the dome?
@@DeFiBully good insulation connect with us we will design for your weather conditions
@@DeFiBully Get the insulation with the dome package and throw at least a 1 ton mini split in it.
@@AdventurousMagic wat is a mini split?
Hello, thanks for the info. A little mis leading with your price analysis with start up costs. Bringing water septic and electricity to the property is 40k alone.
Yeah if you were to add septic it would be expensive, however that would also be super overkill. Hooking water up can actually be pretty inexpensive.
I was going to comment the same thing, 40K budget for the dome is way misleading. If you add the septic, etc, preparing the land, paying the contractor, etc. It will be about 100K plus. Is the 40K budget building just for the materials? How about the labor?

its way more than 40k all in man. your looking closer to 100k
Thank you, this is great! I'm very interested! Might you be willing to you help a US citizen with questions?
Good video but 30-40k to set up? With a bathroom and electric? You are off on that number I promise.
Yep. I'm at $50 :)
What about septic tanks and water wells?
Yep, way off. With bath and kitchen and decent size deck you are looking at 80k-150k
Can you do the same video with Canadian locations?
Yes!!
Sparks my interest. I live in northern British Columbia what do you think?
Could do really well! Would just need to look into the data!
Why do people prefer staying in geodesic domes to other forms of housing? Is it because its cool looking shape?

I have many questions I need advise
Yes, he is understating the costs. Maybe he is overstating the revenues. He is selling a service.
What is the name of the Dome company you use ?
My most recent project was with HypeDomes!

@@tommyconaway7152 congrats! Keep me posted on how it goes!
@@dahof2789 they’re actually based out of Europe and manufacture the domes there. Great company, they gave me a tour of their facilities!

Oh have you built one?
@@86davy building one now almost finished in New Brunswick, we already spent $80,000 and will spend around $30,000 more.

Well was over $18,000 300 ft
Dome was $18,000
And man…… the deck for the dome will be almost $15,000!!!!!
That’s not including land, and materials!!
Want a good hot tub we might need to get a self cleaning for $12,000.

My only question is how you set up the toilet
Are you installing on an already existing property nearby? I’m doing a dome and will connect it to my septic.
Or you could get a very small septic system for it. Might cost more tho.
@@Fr0mDust2Dust great to know. thanks for your time 🤙🏻 hope you will enjoy your dome
