In 2023, the average cost to build a new single-family home in the U.S. surpassed $485,000 — and that’s without factoring in land, permitting delays, or the rising cost of skilled labor.
Meanwhile, the country faces a shortage of over 3.8 million housing units.
Let’s be clear: this isn’t a moment for reform. It’s a moment for revolution.
We’ve Outgrown the Old Model
The traditional path to housing — lengthy construction timelines, massive budgets, layers of approvals, and outdated zoning laws — no longer fits the realities of how we live, work, and build.
The system is over-engineered, overregulated, and fundamentally misaligned with today’s needs.
Yet every year, we continue to pour money into the same broken workflows:
- Neighborhoods zoned for single-family homes only
- Permit processes that delay projects by 6–12 months
- Homes that require 20+ subcontractors to complete
- Designs that prioritize resale value over resilience or livability
We’re building legacy systems while pretending to solve modern problems.
Enter CHOMEX: Designing for What People Actually Need
CHOMEX isn’t trying to play the game better — it’s rewriting the rules. The company designs engineered steel-frame homes that arrive fully built, deploy in an hour, and cost a fraction of traditional construction.
It’s not a trend. It’s a correction.
These homes are:
- Constructed with premium insulation, fire-rated materials, and hurricane-resistant frames
- Delivered turnkey — no general contractor or framing crew required
- Offered at prices that reflect the actual cost of good design, not bloated overhead
- Minimalist in footprint, but maximized for dignity, durability, and speed
When housing becomes productized the right way — with care, quality, and customization — we don’t just solve for affordability. We solve for agency.
The Real Bottleneck? Regulation Masquerading as Safety
Let’s say it plainly: we don’t have a design problem. We have a permission problem.
Innovative builders across the country are being stalled by zoning codes written in the 1950s, and permit processes that still treat modular or prefab housing as fringe.
If the future of housing is going to arrive, the people building it need space — literally and legally — to operate.
A Quiet Movement, Gaining Force
CHOMEX is not alone. Around the country, a new generation of builders, architects, and buyers is embracing prefab homes, house modular alternatives, and fabricated homes that prioritize speed, strength, and simplicity over nostalgia.
These are not emergency shelters or side projects. They are the new standard, driven by function and clarity.
If You Design the Future, You Need to Defend It
To architects, urban planners, and city officials: if you believe in sustainability, resilience, and inclusive design — then it’s time to rethink the gatekeeping.
CHOMEX is building what the next era demands:
Homes that aren’t just affordable — they’re available.
And that’s the most revolutionary design choice of all.
