I've started the kit home-building process in Fern Acres and have gotten a few quotes-
$17,000 for a 75-foot drive, 40 x 40 pad, and septic install. Add on $2000 for the house plan with specs and $1000 for engineer approval. That was from Island Boundary, and they pinned our front corners. Very responsive. Nick Moore was also very helpful.
I was also quoted between $350 and $400 for labor and some land clearing from two contractors, but that was NOT for a kit home. I am waiting for a couple more to get back to me.
But now I need to buy those house plans and am choosing between HPM and Honsador, their smallest units. I did the 'finishing math' for the pre-approved Argus homes, and it almost came out the same way. Plus, I'd have to do a lot myself.
HPM is very upfront with their prices. Honsador is not, but I will persevere.
Does anyone have an opinion between the two or any contractor advice? Greg Henning has been very responsive so far, but I don't have a quote yet.
