Site construction is not efficient at all. Like at all. It's horribly inefficient. It's pretty much the worst industry I can think of. There's a reason why factories exist. I don't think we're going to see eye to eye on that, so we don't need to keep saying the same thing back and forth.

Yes shipping is an issue. That's why regionality is important. If hurricanes keep hitting the same area, that will create regional demand.

*Also, it's not shipping a complete[d] house (which yes can be done too), it's a modular house. That's the whole point of the post.
