Being in realestate. Things are crazy now,very busy,wow! I get alot of deals that have lots etc right next to it. I do every aspect but an agent. I am shocked you haven't raised more at least close to the minimum if not the minimum. I guess people... A: That was the overall demand over the past three years in LA alone. The reason the other 32k aren't being built is the cost of 1 off stick frames is north of $500psf and often over $700. I haven't really started trying to raise money yet - we have been working through some details. I am just now starting to push as of today. I would be very surprised if I didn't get to the minimum in the next week or so. If you want to talk more, we can set up a zoom! - Q: How do you feel you compare to Azure printed homes?

Patent protected? Issued patents? When will the Form C be available? Finally, there are so many companies (e.g., Cover, Modal Living, + the companies you listed) in this s... A: The snap and lock technology's patents expired long ago, unfortunately. Our only proprietary protections are the copyrights on plan sets. We are working towards an interior build out system that we will be able to patent. The Form C should be available now. Our secret sauce compared to our competitors are 1. lightweight easy to install panels (about 1/3 the weight of OSB sips), 2. waterproof, bug/rodent resistant and built in vapor barriers. 3. easier to finish (no exterior treatment other th...
