Good afternoon, dear guests!

Nowadays, there is such an insidious sphere of earnings as "construction for sale". And today, the market is full of offers for the sale of residential buildings at affordable prices from private developers.

If you go to any online real estate trading platform, each city in our country offers affordable prices for both apartments on the ground (a house and surrounding area of ​​1 hundred parts), and full-fledged houses on 3 ares and more.

That is, a person may not even consider apartments, but immediately direct the focus of attention to the choice new home. After all, the prospect of owning your own house is very tempting, and even more so affordable prices with electricity, gas and water already connected !!!

But why don't prices bite so hard? After all, the developer pays:

  • per site;
  • for a building permit;
  • for the connection of communications;
  • for building materials;
  • builders for work.

I analyzed several proposals within the 4 million range. and geographically correlated the cost of one hundred square meters of land, the area of ​​the house, etc., in the end - this is what it turns out: one hundred square meters of land - 550,000 rubles, i.e. 4 hundred parts is 2,200,000 rubles, communications to the house: 320,000 rubles, permission (topographic survey, state duty, etc.) - 18,000 rub.

For a house of 90 sq.m. remains about 1,600,000 rubles. - this is both materials and work (this amount still includes the profit of a private owner, we can assume that it is not less than 200,000 rubles.)

How can you build a quality house for 1 400 000? So in the photo there is also plaster, and a screed, plus a metal gate and a gate!

The answer is obvious: a businessman needs to adjust the state of finishing and the final cost of the house so that it all competes with the cost of an apartment in an apartment building.

And then the middle stratum of the population will pay attention to this object. How can we achieve this? Use inexpensive materials and labor. And cheap material - it is usually of poor quality, and cheap work - cannot be professional!

Why are these houses like a hut on "rotten" legs?

In truth, many do not bother with the durability of the structure and the zero cycle, which should be in fact THE MOST IMPORTANT stage - performed from low-quality material and in a short time.

If you pay attention to the houses offered for sale, then 90% of the plinths are made of cheap M100 bricks, and even worse if M75 with frost resistance F25 - F35 (the lowest).

And this is just the beginning of building a house

But, friends, the basement is the part of the house that has the most stringent requirements in terms of moisture protection, and brick is one of the most moisture-consuming materials. The probability of the destruction of such a base is several times greater than the probability of destruction of both the foundation and the walls, since the accumulation of atmospheric precipitation falls on it! So that the restoration of such a foundation is not far off.

Why is it more profitable for a developer to lay bricks rather than pour concrete?

Firstly, laying bricks of small volumes is done many times faster than concrete work! Secondly, saving money and time on formwork! Thirdly, do not care about those who will live in the house. And all this allows you to quickly drain the house and, accordingly, "weld"!

The technological process is as follows: a trench is dug to an unknown depth, reinforcement is tied, concrete is poured into the ground at the level of the earth cover - this is the foundation. Further, why do formwork if it is not profitable? It is much easier to fold the brick, which is done. It is easier to go to zero with a brick than to put the formwork in a horizontal plane and monitor its deformation during concrete work.

"Rotten legs" are ready, in a couple of months the developer will drop a drop for the house in his pocket, he will forget about you, change the SIM card and start building another new house!

Of course, there are bona fide developers who keep the brand, are always in touch, give a guarantee and do not merge. And I would like them to be not 10%, but 99% out of a hundred.

I really hope that the article was useful to you!
