Michigan Container Homes

---

So, you want to build a container home with Blox, this is what you need to know before you give us a call to set an appointment.

Blox offers an alternative to the traditional building process for those looking for a more eco-friendly and cost efficient home. Blox will fabricate door or window openings in our facility, deliver them into your foundation (if needed) set and weld together creating sustainable structures. 

Prequalification:

· Prequalification (bank or self-finance) (How much can you afford to spend)

· Land (do you own some, do you need to find some) lot vs acreage

· How big a home do you need? (how many beds and baths, etc.) 

· What is the minimum square foot home you can build where you want to live? (building dept. call) 

· See the Blox plan book for ideas

Once you have the above information we can begin to talk about your new home.

Process and Fees:

· Modification of existing Blox plan  $500.00 (add a door, move a door, small stuff, etc.)

· Plans not on our design library $1,500.00 (your ideas, or off the internet)

· Architectural Drawings Starting at $5,000.00 (Stamped permit set) 

Our process is simple, we meet and discuss your likes and dislikes, if we’re modifying a plan from our Blox Plan Book, (removing a door, mirror image, adding a wall, etc.) we require a $500.00 drawing charge.  If we are starting a new home that you designed/sketched or something off the internet, we charge $1,500 to develop a rendering and floor plan. (These are not drawings you can get permits with)

In either of the above cases, we will make one change (not a complete redraw) 

We will then give you a budget for your construction (this is a budget, not the final number), it is a gage for both you and Blox to determine if we should go further. If it’s in your budget range, we will then move to the drawing phase. 

Architectural Drawings:

These are the budget drawings with a great deal more detail, that will be stamped by our architect and can be submitted for permit to the building department where you want to build.
