Only a matter of time till they find a way to make them too expensive
😂😂😂😂😂💔
As always, just like they did the sheds after people started converting them to homes and ADU rentals.
They’ll hike up the land values
Was thinking the same thing
Already has happened
Yes. And I hear tents are “gaining popularity” too.
Ain that’s a fact
Been to San Fran lately?
Curbside motel too
@@joseh3564 been to Florida lately?
@@stevenwebster3286 I live in downtown Tampa 😂 FL doesn’t tolerate the BS like tent cities & CA/WA issues
I lived in an industrial shop for several years. It was great! Loud parties all hours of the day and all my motorcycles and vehicles inside.
Still 500k
I wanna build one after I buy a piece of land someday!
Just buy some ONG land with mineral rights, that way you can sell the timber and use the Royalties you recieve from the natural gas to pay for your mortgage.
Florida Man: Lives in a barn.
As someone who loves cars and boats, I’ve always wanted to do this’
Barndominiums, if built correctly are more energy efficient than block. Most used spray foam insulation. If built to withstand decent winds, 150 mph winds is achievable. As an added bonus to it being much less expensive to build, you also don't have to worry about rotting wood or moisture damage. This includes mold that builds up because of moisture as well.
They are going to increase the prices of Barns now smdh
Would u like A reward for your “fun fact”?
Everything you said is good except the spray foam part. You might want to look into that a little closer.
150 miles wind is NOTHING (block can winstand better than 200 miles and gust of higher) A tornado will shred a barndomium in nothing flat (its not a matter of IF it happens its a matter of WHEN it happens)
Said no one ever.
Michael, if you read this make sure you beef up the walls between I beams to 12 in on center instead of 16 due to the span between I beams. You will need added strength to protect interior structure during bad wind events. The wind pushes against the metal sheeting which also pushes the steel runners which the steel runners are next to your homes interior walls. I had to learn this the hard way with Ida. You are still in construction phase so make sure to have your guys beef up the structure to account for straight line wind rating of 100+ mph on areas between the i beams. The metal will flex during wind storms and flex will push into your interior structure!
Ok, Will do. Thanks!
Should of just spray closed cell foamed it 2" thick, will increase strength up to 5 times and been the best insulation glued to the walls preventing any air against the metal panels like in other materials that stops any condensation. See Spray Jones
@@safffff1000 spray from adds about 35% sheer strength. If it added 500% cars would be full of it.
@@mattbrew11 Check out Spray Jones, he and others have sighted that. In the seventies they made a car the could survive high speed crashes that filled all body parts with foam. It's when the foam which is like hi strength glue which binds all the parts of the wall together that it spread shear and compression loads in many different directions that all the parts together become massively strong
When you build one of these. Please keep in mind to add a safe room or storm bunker. You won't regret it should you ever need to use it.
You would think in a housing crisis they would find a place to allow it so that families can afford to have a home
Not in Florida we are already mostly Urbanized where we can be and most properties are already owned we are not even allowed to have Farms on our backyard
But that wouldn't benefit them unfortunately
@@fashionlife5348 livestock in the city benefits no one not the human nor the animal. If you want to farm you have the Redlands down in Kendall you have ranches and farms and Davie and in homestead you have to buy that type of property with the animal will be cared for in a healthy way.
@@paulmackyou9098 wouldn't benefit them or you for if a family were to receive a home like this because they could afford it they would definitely benefit from it
Nope they are finding other avenues to profit from
did you see his BIG smile when he said "you can have your wife HAPPY" and "YOU can be Happy as well" He understands!
Barndos realize the true essence of “working from home”! 👍🏼
Exactly what I want. I am a low-income artist whose idea of home is 70% workspace / 15% storage space / 15% living space. Try finding that configuration anywhere on the market.
bringing back the 1700-1800s ... when store owners had the store at ground level, the living quarters above. Nothing new ... just a different name, same thing
I used to work in an office with a rollup door. When any amount of wind hit it, it made a helluva lot of noise; even a mild breeze caused it to rumble and clank. Also, because it was made of thin metal, it quickly radiated heat into the office during the summer and out of it during the winter. I wouldn't want to live anywhere near those rollup doors.
0:31 That guys desk was a freaking GTO. I've seen the couch conversions but never a desk.
This will drive the prices of regular houses down.
Nope
This news piece and increased demand for barndominiums will drive barndo prices right up there with normal housing.
@@TruckTaxiMoveIt That's because you have money to buy a over 1 million dollars house and that's your business.
Ive always wanted to park cars in my living room
Having your house and place of work in the same building or compound is nothing new. Before the industrial revolution and the advent of zoning ordinances, it was the norm!
I bet it cost a lot to cool that place
It was unfinished, they have walls
Don’t get confused. It’s a house with metal siding. All codes still apply.
I am wondering about home insurance compared to stick built
People in North Florida have been doing this for years. Many of my friends have them and I have one and we built ours about 10 years ago or more. Half of my neighbors live in farm houses. That’s what we call them.
What areas or cities in Florida allow bardonium
Any regrets or are you happy with the decision?
This is the way to go, have been living in my building with a shop for 35 years.
It’s ridiculous right now. All these people flowing into Florida has screwed it all up. Floridians like me and my wife can’t even get an offer accepted with these out of staters offering 50k over asking sight unseen
Considering Florida doesn't have an annual cap on its property tax increase I can only imagine how crazy prop tax is going to get. It will force a lot of people to sell. That is the one good thing we have here in CA, and of course, DemRats are trying their best to eliminate it (Prop 13).
Yep. Many people making Florida their 2nd or 3rd residence/home. Driving prices.
We have the same problem here in my state (in the west). The Californies are invading us. The homes and property price are through the roof, buyers offer 10-20k more than asking price. Young couples getting married have to live with parents because the cost of rent is more than a mortgage on a half a million dollar home.
this is great! I have a Garage-o-minium, Shed-o-minium, and Basement-o-minium for sale!! And of course, the Woodpile-o-minium.
I want one. Small living space with giant shop.
wait till a cat 4 hurricane comes and takes them all away...poor cars.
🤣🤣🤣👍
Why? Aren't they rated for wind loads?
They’re in plant city Florida, there fine.
I don't think that thing can withstand a Cat4 or Cat5 hurricane.
@@jasoncrandall73 Yeah. That's my was my first thought too. Even tornados may tear those apart.
I live in a 22 year old pole barn home in Minnesota! Real poles in the ground below our deep frost level. Not a garage that looks like a pole barn....
Great idea
Omg I’ve seen those shells and wondered if they could be a dwelling. I want one! But just cuz I’m weird like that.
They'll be pretty infamous when the hurricanes hit...there is no way that this construction withstands cat 4 hurricanes like our houses do, I dont care what he has to say to the cameras, and that's what makes them cheaper.
Barns on our property never had any problems. If we got tornados here in Florida then these would be a worse idea
@@bigboy6704 Florida does get tornadoes though. Not often but they do occur.
@@SoulSearching1983 the only sort of tornado I've ever seen were water spouts. I've gotten warnings but never seen one or been near one
I know for a fact that I AM NOT staying in my metal building/home for a cat 3 let alone 4. We got hit with Ida here and maybe had 70+ mph winds hitting the rear of my home. It was some scary stuff. I have a metal patio that's 16x32 all galvanized 4in channels with 26ga metal roof. The patio was lifting up and down about 4 to 6 inches. I thought it was gonna lift off like a spaceship. The rear of my home "weakest area" is in my garage as i have a 24x24 garage with laundry room built inside it. You could see the walls pushing in and if you leaned against it you would be pushed back and forward. YEP this guy aint sitting in this house for a cat 3 or higher. I will invest in a safe room or build another home later when the world crashes from all these crazy prices.
No insurance company in the world would give u any home owners insurance ..here in fla ..this is the land of hurricanes and we have summer storms that will blow these away ..bad idea
They built failed condos ... And rotting skyscrapers. I can't imagine barns are an upgrade or will fare better😒😄
I want a cement dome that floats. It will look real pretty after a powerful storm.
Always wanted to live in an old fire house. I could take the pole down to the larger parking area. The downside to my “dream” is that old fire houses aren’t in good areas most of the time
Started out in Texas… right. Pretty sure I saw people living in barns in the Midwest decades ago. Lol
But not a barndominium!
Right in the tornado and hurricane belt
The only real problem I see with barndominiums in Florida is that metal buildings tend to get very hot inside as metal conducts heat easily.
New Jersey been doing this!
"What were you raised in a barn?!"...
Better add solar panels.
Everyone talking about insulation and how safe it is from storms really needs to do their homework.
Yep. i think trailers or manufactured homes are more at risk of storm damage than barndos, yet trailer parks are everywhere
We call those “Pole Barn Houses” where I’m from. Barndominium sounds better I guess lol. I wouldn’t want to be in the path of a hurricane in one though. Our tornadoes will obliterate one.
An F 5 tornado 🌪
Turn it into nothing
But a concrete slab
Q: Where were you raised? A: In a barn. Q: Are you from Florida? A: Yes.
I want one!!!
Great method of building a home and will definitely take of in Florida especially if you have land. Can you provide the name of the builder. I would like to build one in Jupiter Farms.
I love it - but not cheap to heat or keep cool
If they are using spray insulation!! They are awesome and very easy to hear and cool
Solar panels would pay off here.
@@SodaPopinksi Solar isn’t affordable yet !! No financial gain !! If you want totally off grid then yes!
@@JS-zb1vv it is affordable, it completely on a case by case basis. I had solar on 2 homes and it paid off nicely.
@@SodaPopinksi where is Solar affordable? To completely power my house with solar panels was around 100k
I want one of those
I’ve built several and nobody I mean nobody can build them like the Amish!! Their wood peg structures are built to last. Don’t use cheap aluminum or steel structures. The main problem I see is gonna be the center of the structure no cross members and metal does bend and move in extreme heat!! Might wanna rethink your build carefully
I hope there is a follow-up to this story in the months to come...would be interesting to see how it all turns out. Cheers
Enjoy that electric bill.
Amazing!
I'm wanting to build at Pine Ridge in Beverly Hills!
Barndos sound great in Florida - until we have a major hurricane.
As long as they are built to withstand the winds should be ok.
U can say that about any buildings … but doesn’t it depends on what & how a building is built?
I rode out Hurricane Michael in 2018 and after the dust settled none of these big metal building were standing!
@@Wisebark welp... That about settles it.
Concept in West Texas????? We have been doing this here in Germany for over 400 years…. Sorry to burst your bubble
Very interesting and sounds very cost-effective but how does it withstand a hurricane and can you insure it
Well ul be Freezing if its cold n ul be fried when its hot
This is awesome
Fix the housing crisis. I dont think people really want to live in vans , barns , busses if they could afford a house. There's going to be a huge homeless problem worse than normal ( and its pretty bad ) pretty soon. No one can afford these ridiculous rents.
Think it's cool now? Wait until you get your first 7000 square foot electric bill.
you can have solar, multiple zones ac and good spray foam insulation can lower that bill.
You don't have to have the garage heated or cooled.
My neighbors have one for their yachts.
Can we get the link to the builder's webpage?
Awsome💯
I’m very mold sensitive-this makes a lot of sense to me.
Ya right, you only become "sensitive" once you know there is mold present. Its a called being a hypochondriac. I see it constantly in my line of work.
@@johnbeckwith1361 false. I can walk into a building and smell (or feel) it almost immediately. Feel lucky that you’re blessed to not be bothered with this stuff.
"Your wife will be happy and you'll be happy" 😉
Wife: Honey...when you coming home?
You : I'm still at the shop..so now...as you walk through the door. 😁
You're funny.
So how much energy does it take to heat and cool those?
They do have walls with insulation. That was a unfinished building. Probably no more than a regular house.
What about a split home/business?
I want one!!!!!
Takes working from home to a new level! 😊. I’m not a builder but how insulating are garage doors, not to mention, if you’ve got potential customers coming to your barndominnian 😂, what about safety because your family is there too? Hope it works out, not trying to be a killjoy.
That was a unfinished building, you must don't have clue about the construction industry. It will have normal walls and insulation. It would be useless building with the insulation. Would have to pay a arm and a leg to keep it cool in the summer.
Has anyone found a builder for Panama City area?
How’s do they weather a hurricane?
That's cool but I do not need my car in the front room.
Popular in Texas and now Florida. Enough said...
I wonder if it's well insulated
Living on water would be cool if they’d allow it. Popular in the UK
Michael is going to regret not using spray foam. That roll out insulation is crap. Esp in Texas heat.
Glad they said popular because they are twice as much as homes
We build ours in Indiana in 2015. 2200sqft for $108k. It's worth $300k. Too bad I didn't go thru with my plan of building a few more to rent out/sell. Could of, would of, should of!!!
I have barn from 1680... Wish to have money fix it and make livable. Now is just garage and storage.
only main stream media can make a barndaminium vidoe super dramatic 🙄
thats neato
It's a big mansion without the walls and rooms.
Way to work from home. Love it!
Florida doesn't need any more people or houses. We're full. Nothing to see here.
Who builds these locally? Looking for a builder serving near land o lakes.
Good luck with your air conditioning mid summer , and trying to get insurance.Also huge taxes on a concrete slab that size unless you want to keep the floor dirt.
There's pros and cons for example certain parts of the US freeze and these would be horrible no insulation and pipes would freeze now I seen some of these with parts you can open and allow air flow through the whole house cooling it down
You don't leave it bare. Add as much insulation as you like.
@@bobbywiederhold yikes and then breathe those fiberglass particles ? no thanks, it's still a lot of acreage to condition even though I'm going to design one myself
@@danielross9057 use spray
@@danielross9057 are you slow? They have walls, look up the videos of finished buildings. It would make sense to live in one with insulation and walls. The building in the video was a unfinished building
If you can afford to build this, I highly doubt you have trouble affording a house... acting like this is cheap, people can't even afford to buy a tent to live in...
You must fraternize with poor folk. .
Change that or you'll be there too!💯
@@jasonthomas2714 yeah or maybe my government should stop screwing people.
The only reason this are popular now is because there cheaper and quicker to build per square ft then traditional homes.
Certainly shortens the commute to work
It's all fun and games until the hurricanes arrive.
The first major hurricane will blow that thing down.
this or 3d printed homes is what im looking forward to
How does he get zoning for that, and HOW does he get ANY KIND OF INSURANCE WITH THAT BUILDING?
Seems like it would fly away in the next tornado.
Wow
They hurricane proof?
I put all my money on the hurricane winds
Absolutely not!
One hurricane and bye, bye to that one. Not logical for Florida.
