Out of curiosity… what city are you in? I’m curious how well the 3D printed homes will actually sell compared to the traditional homes, since they’re really not much cheaper.

Everything sells sooner of later, if it's in a region with a decent jobs market (makn driver of Denand), since there's an enormous national housing shortage in areas with jobs.

This last caveat is important, since there's PLENTY of rundown, decrepit housing in the Rust Belt that will never sell since half the manufacturing jobs there moved overseas, the rest were automated, and they're never coming back.
