With an increased automation rate of 80% and a production efficiency more than four times that of manual production lines, the factory can build a wall in just 12 minutes and assemble a modular house in only two hours.

They should ship that stuff to the USA! Insane market size. Though US 'investors' might lobby for tariffs to stop them, to ensure their real estate holdings always get more expensive.

Not sure if I remember correctly but Kevin Walmsley, from the Youtube Channel "Inside China Business", is actually in that business as well 🤔 He even shows the prices for the houses.

He did a video 5 months ago on the topic -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1whWppZxoY

Nice! Good to see some people trying to provide some relief via market mechanisms to the working class. Obviously it's not the full solution, but homeless people aren't well enough to organize, so it always helps.

Isn't there a dearth of homes already in the US? It's mostly the price gating by rentiers causing the shortage.
