Get in the foam, amerikkkan

that house is pure sovl

>styrofoam
nowhere does it say what actual form of "foam" it is
theres concrete foam, and low density bricks/ceramics that are sometimes used in construction

honestly an improvement, now they can put nails anywhere in their walls like normal people

their commissions are basically tips to begin with

Their commission ranges from 1-10% depending on the type of property being sold. If you're buying a commercial property and need help making sure your business doesn't conflict with zoning laws, the agent will take 1% to setup the sale correctly and ensure all paperwork including environmental paperwork is filed correctly. For a cheap $200,000 parking lot used to mix cement, this would be $2,000. However, suppose you're a foreigner trying to buy a house in a competitive market like Silicon Valley. The agent will be the person who contacts the selling agents and arranges a sale based on the amount of cash you can put down immediately. So for a $3,000,000 home withing walking distance of Apple HQ, the agent will take a $300,000 payment. In essence, the fee is used to access the agent's friend list and ensure compliance with American laws that a foreigner like yourself have no knowledge of.

For the houses being sold in suburban Phoenix in the OP the commission would be 5% and, for a $500,000 home, would be $25,000 per house.

>put up a plywood mold
>fill it with urethane
>cut holes for windows and doors
>reuse plywood mold next door
sounds extremely cheap and efficient and good enough for ghetto projects housing

it would be if not for the building code requiring studs and prohibiting plywood/mixed wood for use in stringers, struts and other load-bearing walls which is commonplace in trailers. I assure you, every American carpenter has tried your theory at some point.

what if the roof is also urethane and weighs like 300 lbs total?

It's all coated in concrete when they're done.

In Costa Rica, the government issue welfare houses are either made with concrete prefabs or cinder blocks reinforced with rebar

Are you telling me that the 1st world citizens of the greatest country in the world live in toy houses that won't survive an earthquake?

Uhh concrete is porous but the styrofoam isn't. It's the styrofoam that's keeping the water out.

>you vil live in ze foam

that's based though

americans live in bouncy castles?

Then the roofer will probably step through it while trying to install the roof. So this would force a flat asphalt/tar roof, which is done in most commercial building.

this would be fine if it cost like 30k but you just know they'll mark it up to 600k

Yes. It's a huge scam. Companies buy up all the land in an area, build disposable shit heap houses and sell them to unsuspecting idiots for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Unfortunately no, despite attempts by the concrete industry to do so. You should be familiar with it, because Russia was a strong believer in inflatable concrete domes because it works so well with their existing commieblock manufacturing. It was the future of construction in the early 1960s in the same way aluminum was the future of construction in the 1950s.

notably, plywood was the future of construction in the 1940s. It'd take another decade to get full mass production in quantities contractors care about, in America plywood is delivered by the train much like steel or concrete.
