How the hell does the article "not make sense"? The title specifically says "Our Underground House", and at the end they explicitly say they would consider choosing such a house again, under certain condition.
And pretty much all problems are related to the kind of house itself. That it's not mainstream means not just that you need the right buyer to sell it, but also that you need the right contractor to build it, since most won't have any experience with this kind, leading to bad construction. And while moisture and leaks are a problem for houses in general, they're a bigger problem for this kind. Finally, the basic concept guarantees that any kind of problem with the outer walls will be much more difficult and costly to fix than with a regular house.
- paulcole 6y agoThe certain conditions they lay out don’t even make sense. The author says they get nosebleeds at 50% humidity or less. Enjoy that drier climate. Honestly can’t believe they’d consider another underground home. Real gluttons for punishment.
