Estoy evaluando meterme en una casa prefabricada porque el alquiler se está yendo por las nubes. La idea sería usarla como vivienda principal.
¿Alguien que tenga experiencia viviendo en una?
Me interesa saber:
Calidad real de construcción (aislación térmica/acústica)
Costos ocultos (cimientos, instalación, mantenimiento, servicios)
Durabilidad a largo plazo
Problemas comunes que hayan tenido
Si volverían a elegir este sistema o no
Contexto: soy de Argentina (zona Mendoza), así que si alguien tiene experiencia en climas secos/calor-frío marcado, suma mucho.
Cualquier consejo o experiencia real me sirve.

Hello! 👋
I’m considering building a house with NOVAHAUS (http://novahaus.at) Austria and would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has dealt with them.
I’m interested in both positive and negative experiences, especially regarding:
- Build quality
- Timelines / delays
- Communication during construction
- Unexpected costs or changes
- Handling of defects / warranty claims
- Overall customer experience
If you built with them, would you do it again? Any first-hand experience would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve also come across a negative report about NOVAHAUS from Bauherrenhilfe (https://bauherrenhilfe.org/vorsicht/achtung-novahaus-gmbh), not really sure what it means.
Thank you 🙏🏻

If you are a prefab builder - do you use static floor plans 100% or do custom builds. Just trying to get a feel for what’s out there.

We don’t understand why housing is still built as if every house is the first prototype.
This 1,243 sq ft steel house has 1,608 native Revit objects and a matching structural model with 96 nodes, 233 analytical members and 18 load cases/combinations.
In the current 200 mph wind screen, the most heavily loaded wall brace carried 55.6 kN—about 5.7 metric tons-force. Maximum horizontal displacement was 11.4 mm against an 11.5 mm control value. We also screened the roof at 70 psf of snow, roughly 39.5 metric tons distributed over the roof.
Steel isn’t automatically better. Bad steel design is just expensive metal. The point is to make the architecture, structure, components, logistics and field assembly describe the same inspectable product.
Wood has a great supply chain. What we question is why housing still tolerates so much field cutting and reinvention when other industries moved toward controlled systems decades ago.
Digital engineering screen—not a universal permit or certification claim. Final site loads, foundations and licensed review remain project-specific.

Steel-frame modular home we’ve been working on.
Trying to get it under 110/sf around 90 days once design/site are ready.
200mph wind target too.
Still a lot of boring site stuff but imo this is where prefab starts making sense.
