You're concentrating on the output (what the building looks like and what people living in them think), but the actual opportunity is on the input side: what components go into those buildings, and the construction company margin achievable if they can be more standardized and mass-produced.
The big boys are well aware of the potential though, and are already in on the act: https://www.lendleasepodium.com/construction-and-development/ https://www.lendleasepodium.com/construction-and-development...
- nradov 6y agoThe components are already standardized. You can buy almost everything you need to build a regular house in a few aisles at Home Depot.
