Nine Indigenous communities in Saskatchewan will receive 117 new homes as the federal government announced over $22.9 million in Rapid Housing Initiative (RHI) funding.
In this specific incidence I guess it is the federal government’s responsibility 👏👏👏
22.9 millions for 117 homes? I can make 2000 houses with the same budget. You have some problems in Saskatchewan.
Even using prefabricated designs and or shipping container modulation you can’t even get services and or foundations done for less then $10,000.
On top of this there is usually a well and septic tank needing to be installed. That’s all dependant on depth and environmental precautions to be in place to set the tank and well up.
You can build for $11,450 a house?
Can you build me one for that?
Can you sign a contract so the price is guaranteed?

Besides being in Kentucky, at 21,830 CAD that’s almost twice the price that you’re suggesting.
That’s without services, shipping or anything else.
Okay but that’s still almost 1/10th the price we’re paying now.
22.9m for 117 homes is $195,727 per home. Almost $200k per home.
Which sounds about right?
I mean that’s not what I would call affordable, but okay.
So is that a no to all three questions?
Can you show the class your work please?
Look at their answers above, this person means to push them into lightly furnished cargo containers and thinks they’ll spend the rest on a casino.
Looking at the breakdown, the variation in cost per unit makes me think that there is more than just the cost of the shelter itself. Remote areas, new service connections, etc must play a role in overall costs.
