Its worth noting, your numbers are super misleading..
the manufactured home cost in the bob vila article includes the entire house (foundations, land clearing, utilities, finishes, permit fees, etc).. aka, for the 270k, youre getting a move-in ready house.
The 3D printed home cost in your builtin article appears to only include the basic structure (aka the cheap part). Still gotta pay teams of people to come on-site to do everything else. The cheapest they mentioned was $299k for a move-in ready house.
Well, I double checked because I've done a fair amount of research and the All3DP article was literally just a random example I found off Google. A realtor interviewed for Yahoo! finance said buyers could expect to pay about $15k-$50k for a starter 3d-printed home. Doesn't sound like I'm actually in the wrong ballpark here. How fancy you make it and where you put it will obviously influence the cost of construction. A 3d printed summer mansion for Bill Gates in the Bay Area isn't going to be $15k, obviously.
