The co-founder of Airbnb has just announced his new Prefab Home company and is officially accepting orders. Joe Gebbia announced this week that his new company Samara will build net zero accessory dwelling units known as backyard. Samara will offer two prefab options: a studio at 430 square feet and a 1 bedroom at 550 square feet both of which come standard with solar panels. It’s been an exciting year in the prefab home industry as new companies enter to help meet the demand for small footprint prefab homes in North America. Watch and learn more about Samara, what they offer and how much they cost.

Ridiculous price!
Beautiful but dang..that's pricey!
UGLY..Sorry
Jesus fuck!!! 350k!! Insanity
I guess you can Airbnb it and make it worth the price point . That is kinda high though but I can see the value with the solar dimensions and layout
"Clean solar" LOL. Those panels are extremely destructive to the environment and the batteries are worse!.
Lithium strip mines in China, Africa, Middle East will for the rest of human history be barren land
What the?? Waaaay too much money for a trailer home with solar panels!
I've been researching prefab homes for a number of months now and, despite several high efficiency and or Net Zero options that have great design and features, they're all deeply flawed. That flaw is pricing. Samara asking $350,000 USD for a 550 sqft house is ridiculous and most companies with similar offerings are equally incredibly overpriced. I have an incredibly efficient, though not Net Zero, 2300 sqft bungalow on a sizeable lot and "only" paid $300,000 CAD; which was about $35k more than it would have cost if I hadn't bought in super hot sellers' market. The initial idea behind prefab homes was to drive prices down but the new companies coming out seem to be pushing prices in the opposite direction and making custom, onsite builds seem more reasonable with every new prefab product that gets announced.
I've been saying there should be something like airbnb but for land and a bit more permanent
Where people can rent out a backyard place a tiny home
gotta throw out most of your possessions to live in this piece of shit.
fuck that air bnb commie
this is America son.
I need more space for my balls
Don't be offended by the price, a $300K turn-key ready house is nothing for Californians + they can rent it for $3,000 a month.
4:40 combo units have a history of not getting things as dry as a separate unit.
They function but it's usually a compromise in efficiency, not something you want if you're trying to qualify as Net Zero.
It also takes longer to process more than one load, because you have to let it go through the entire wash cycle and entire dry cycle (and probably entire additional dry cycle because it didn't get fully dry the first time) before starting another load.
lol, what are they made of gold. $639 per sq foot is unheard of. $200 per sq foot would be pretty high end imo
Cool but 🤡 🌎 pricing. 2x 40' containers delivered around $10k right now.
Save the planet, use less. Pay the same or more tho.
Clicked off as soon as I heard the price. Way to expensive to make sense.
No way are these worth these charges Here in uk you can get better for £50 k. Much more sensible.
The price make this a rediculas option, only people in california would pay that. Just plain stupid. Only in California because that is the only market that will buy this. Do this for 30k and you'll have something.
4:40, Maintenance. When there's residue leftover in the washer, the last thing you want to do is cook it for an extended period of time. Certain materials left behind from certain jobs or lifestyles can damage the drum, burn, explode, or release gases. Essentially, the all-in-one unit isn't for everybody, and forcing everyone into that one mold can have disastrous results. For instance, you don't want someone who works in any form of oil industry, combustibles, or dangerous chemicals using an all-in-one machine. Not all of that stuff comes out of the washer, even with extra rinse cycles. That could turn into a rather expensive, even deadly, accident. But if they can remove their clothes from the washer to dry, the risk is reduced. Imagine having to get down and clean the machine before you dry your clothes for every single load. That wouldn't be a quality of life improvement at all, and it would be more expensive because of regular purchasing and use of the necessary cleaning products. Also, not all products that would be needed are sterile, so that presents yet another challenge. Different strokes for different folks.
genius, this can future-proof suburbia
Samara must live in another planet – 289k for a Backyard house? NO thank you!
Sir,in India you will get one 1 acre land plus farmhouse plus one small commercial unit in town which will feed you,your entire family for entire lifetime for 269k.
$250K – $350K for a $40k – $50K designer shed……What…In…..The….F***, Why….In….The…F***, Who….In….The…..F***….🤣🤣🤣
just saw how much they are. omg 289 000 that is FUCKING nuts
If wonder if you were to cut out all of the high end furnishings you could possibly bring the price down to say $150,000?
300K? You can build it for 30k.
as always YOU ARE BOOLSHIT TALKING GAY
Ridiculous
im a general contractor in bay area and the ADU market is exploding lots of guys specializing in it. im going fully ADU after this year its good money and the prefabs make it cake.
for that kind of money, I'll go elsewhere…
(Note : it's a good thing you waited up to past the 7 minute point for announcing the pricetag as this is why I looked at the video up to that point. However, had you mentioned the pricetags early on in the video, I would have simply gone to something else faster.) Don't get me wrong: Its is, if well made, probably worth that kind of money to some people with no building skills or time to invest in one's mini home, but for me, that looks like a very healthy markup for profits over the cost of such a basic mini home.
Cheers!
😉
I believe all in ones washer/dryers are super inefficient with respect to electricity usage as well.
The small one-bedroom interior footprint looks like an upscaled $300,000.00 Net-Zero mobil-home-a-lized unit.
3:40 With that timeline you can get them made in CΗίΝα yourself with months to spare. My guess is they are simply making them in CΗίΝα.
Down vote for putting $300k price at end
How do i contact them
it’s unfortunate that, despite how they were initially advertised, modular homes aren’t going to be the solution to affordable housing. i wanted to go the modular route, but it’s just not easy to justify these prices when a quality builder will provide significantly more for significantly less.
hard wood floors and solar ? wow ! Are ADUs not available as a primary home ? Im confused.
The price always ends my happiness when viewing these prefabs…Darn…….
I watch a lot of your videos but I don’t watch them to see your face. More images or video of the homes and less of your face will keep me watching longer.
Do you know if there are any prefab companies in Texas? and will you be making some videos of them? Thanks.
Oh! Kerry!
Why would you wax poetic about 550 Sq. Ft. for ONLY $300,000.00 +++ REALLY!? SHEEESH!
He obviously has never used a combo washer dryer😂. They take forever to dry, like 4-5 hours. Not sure about efficiency, but unless you want to hear your dryer all night, a conventional or stackable is best.
Combo washer/dryers are very complex, and often break down. According to what I’ve read.
I’m amazed you avoided using exclamation marks. You have hyped almost every post in the past and it gets old. Request: Would you please denote offerings by west coast and east coast? Perhaps as separate playlists.
Just now watching this one. Re washer/dryer combo: The take far too long to both wash and dry, and repair is a costly disruption of both functions. Just ask anyone who has one.
