⚠️ DISCLAIMER: The costs, timelines, and specifications presented in this video are based on a specific luxury build completed in Colorado in 2024. Your actual costs will vary significantly based on location, land costs, material selection, labor rates, site conditions, and level of finish. Luxury builds routinely exceed initial budgets by 15-30% - plan accordingly. The appraisal value mentioned ($1,050,000) is specific to this property's location, views, acreage, and local market conditions and should not be considered typical or guaranteed for other builds. Unique properties like Quonset homes may have smaller buyer pools and longer sales timelines compared to traditional homes. Building codes for residential metal structures vary by jurisdiction and may require additional engineering, permitting time, and costs. This video is for educational purposes only and should not be considered professional construction, architectural, financial, or investment advice. Always work with licensed architects, engineers, contractors, and financial advisors appropriate for your specific project and investment goals.
