I am a fan in general of reurbanization, and live in a city that is really sitting in a good place for a revival (Durham, NC). I am interested in buying some...
I would talk to Rocio. Generally I think if you're building in a city you have zoning issues and if you're ok there the question is whether the building will...

Reading over the details there is an awful lot not included in the kit such as the roof, windows, foundation, bolts. Is there anyplan to make this part of the...
Thanks guys for starting this group. I'm very happy to see that there is so much interest in the LV design. I'd love to build one myself. Wonder if it's...
Do you think the resell of one of theses homes will go up in value? Do you think the price will increase like a regular site built home? Has anyone resold a...
I highly doubt it will value like a house trailer. The LV, despite being called "prefab," is a well designed building that requires a full set of permits, a...
Location is most important in my opinion. Once you visit an LV, you realize that the surrounding landscape is what makes or breaks it. The value of the house...
I agree with Bill. The location is very important with the LV Home, because the surroundings become "part" of the building. You will also need to site the LV...
As Will Rogers said, "Land, they just ain't making it anymore." Or something like that. Marked value appreciation is primarily attributable to the land ...

The LVM and LVG designs are still in development. No prototypes have been built as of yet (as far as I know). You can contact Rocio's office for more info. ...

Hey Everyone, Thanks for creating this group. I have a lot in N FL (Walton County) and plan to build an LV-150 there. I orginally designed a custom home and...
I'm surprised you have problems finding a contractor. WHile the cost of the project is not huge, generally cost relates to time, so a contracotr would/should...

My wife and I are very interested in getting the LVL and was wondering if anyone has built one in a mountainous area. We are looking for land in an area near...
We built an LV in the Blue Ridge mountains of VA. We had to cut into a hill so that our LV could be situated overlooking a knoll. We originally thought the LV...

-Hello, You stated in your post, that you had visited the Perryville home and took many pictures. I was wanting to know if you could e-mail me those pics. I am...
My wife and I are planning on building an LVL in the next year but are concerned about the cost. As you all know, in order to get an accurate building cost...
"Can an LVL on a basement be done for under $100,000, or am I dreaming? Please let me know your thoughts." Basically, NO. The LVL is larger than the LV and we...
If you look way up the posts (post 5 or so) there is a discussion of asctual costs. I agree with Jennifer that there is no way you could build the LVL for...
Hello, Was curious if any of the LV or LVL homeowners ever got estimates to have their houses built on a basement instead of crawlspace, and if so what were...
Barry & I are in the process of designing a small storage shed that will "go with the flow" of our LV Home. Something else to think about....Rocio is working...
Thanks for your input Jennifer. Kindly, Colleen ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best...
Having stayed in Jennifer's house, I must say that the house feels much bigger in person than it looks in pictures. If I lived in an LV, I would be militant...
"I was thinking that, depending on the orientation of the house, some sort of shallow shed built along the solid (bedroom) end wall up against the house could ...
This the same question i've been wondering about... we're interested in a basement or even a partial basement, more for storage space than anything else (and...
