3-D Printing Could Make Your Next Home 40% Cheaper

My father’s dream was to build his own house.

However, building a house in India was an incredibly complicated affair.

First, you had to buy a plot of land. Next, you had to get an allocation from the government for all the materials you needed to make a house — cement, steel rebar, piping, you name it.

It was all in short supply because of India’s socialist economy, along with a quota system to dole out the limited quantities then available. And then to get your water, sewage and electricity connected … that was yet another ordeal.

Simply getting all this together was an enormous effort that took years. Of course, there was an easier way…

You hired a “fixer.”

 In India, and anywhere else with a dysfunctional bureaucracy, a fixer is someone who knows all the right people. He greases someone’s palm over here and trades a favor with someone else over there to get things done.

With a fixer, what might have taken two or three years instead took just a few months.

Still, with all that, the house my father built took years to finish. However, today, a new technology is emerging that can shrink build times and make constructing a home much cheaper.

The Incredible Costs of Rebuilding

That technology is 3-D printing.

And this technology may suddenly become mainstream because of the incredible damage to housing that Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria have done in 2017.

Harvey is estimated to have completely destroyed 12,700 homes.

Irma is estimated to have destroyed 25% of all homes in the Florida Keys.

Maria is estimated to have caused damage worth as much as $30 billion across the Caribbean.

Dominica, an island that I’ve been to go hiking and canyoning, experienced a near 100% loss of houses and buildings. It’s unlikely that Dominica can afford to reconstruct itself using the old-fashioned, traditional way of building houses and buildings. It would cost too much money, and it would take too long.

However, Cazza, a 3-D printing company, could have a solution.

Using Cazza’s X1 robot, 3-D printed buildings like houses, villas, shelters, warehouses and commercial buildings can go up in as little as one week.

Cazza believes that using its 3-D printing technology will save as much 40% on the old, traditional ways of building.

That’s a $20,000 savings on a house that costs $50,000 to put up. And remember, the 3-D printed model gets you your house in a week instead of months or years.

The current estimate for the still-incomplete hurricane season is already as much as $340 billion.

If you assume that 30% of this damage is destroyed homes and buildings, implementing 3-D printing technology like the Cazza X1 to rebuild will save as much as $40.8 billion. That’s a big deal.

This is why I’m watching the 3-D printing technology used on homes and buildings carefully. Because, in time, the techniques used to rebuild from disasters are also going to be used to make regular homes less expensive too. And the company that makes the 3-D printing technology is going to have a stock that soars for years.

These are the kinds of companies that I focus on for my readers across my publications. Join me if you’d like to get in on these kinds of incredible technologies that also deliver real, meaningful benefits to people.

Right now, an untapped ocean of energy—found underneath all 50 states—is about to transform the world’s energy industry. In fact, there’s enough of this energy in the first six miles of the earth’s crust to power the United States for the next 30,000 years. Wanna know this untapped energy source? Learn NOW! And as companies rush to extract this energy from the ground, they’ll need the help of one Midwestern company’s technology to make use of it. This is your chance to take advantage of John D.
