Can you build a large number of homes for us?

Surely a possibility. Depends on details and cost structure. Our cost is $60k materials, $40k labor. Except that requires a crew of 24 skilled people, or 72 unskilled people to do - in 5 days. To recruit a crew, we started https://learn.opensourceecology.org/ - and have 2 apprentices on board already. But until we build to a crew of 24, this is not a possibility. With a crew of 24, we can deliver 75 houses in one year in off-grid situations, and 50 houses per year in locations with legal restrictions. If you can provide a labor force of 72 unskilled people, we can build 40 homes in about 6 months from shovel-ready.
