A renter in Austin, Texas, moved into a 3D-printed home and answered a burning question: How much does it really cost? The renter, 3dprintedhouselifestyle (@3dprintedhouselifestyle), shared their monthly expenses in a video on TikTok.
@3dprintedhouselifestyle I answered the all time question. How much is a 3D printed home? I moved into a 3D printed home because it is affordable community living. I live with 3 other strangers. I rent my room for $650 rent and $50 utilities. When I was looking for other places to rent most for a minimum of $1,100k in my area, and that’s JUST RENT. I’m lucky that utilities are so low due to the home using solar energyIf I were to buy the 4 bedroom house with 3 bath it would be $423k and regular home with the same layout in my area and same square footage (2100 sq ft) is at $575k. I got bullied into telling y’all this information. My living situation and reasons for living here are complicated but I’m willing to speak more on it if y’all genuinely want to know more :)- Source: Zillow the regular home was the same square footage and built the same year as my home, 5 min away, and same layout #3dprintedhouse#3dprinting#3d#house#homemade#livingmybestlife#price#cost#howmuch♬ original sound – Chicanotok
The TikToker explained that they moved into the 3D-printed home for affordability. “I only pay $700 [per month], and that covers rent and utilities,” they said. “I’m lucky that utilities are so low due to the home using solar energy.”…
