Is the Seed Eco-Home more affordable than any other home available in the marketplace? There are several very compelling cases which make the Seed Eco-Home - a 10x better solution. Let's examine the financial model under various scenarios.

DIY Build Model

If one already has land, and does not live in the city, and one builds the house themselves - the costs are the lowest:

  • Material cost - $60k
  • Plans, engineering, build instructions - free download from the OSE site. See TOC.
  • Electrical Connection - $10-30k. $500 for a subpanel if electric already exists.
  • Off-grid system - $6k
  • Labor cost - 2 people, 2-4 weeks - after spending a number of weekends building.
  • Expected complete build time is 500-2000 hours, 500 for OSE-certified apprentices - 2000 for a complete novice. About half the time goes into module preparation, and half the time goes to assembly + finishing details.
