Your argument was a strawman as I never claimed US houses were superior. I'm asking you to politely leave the thread as you aren't contributing anything. You have simply argued points that you haven't done research on, and do so when it is far too late. |
Bricks can have different prices they might look the same but have more insulating properties for example. Also assembly costs are higher (more time consuming) and there are expensive techniques to build in a wall and cheap ones. So the square metre prices tells us not everything.
I also never claimed you claimed US houses were superior. I asked you how you see it.
Contributing ? The discussion we lead if EU/UK prices are justified and if European houses offer a quality advantage is purely opinion based. There are no facts. I contribute a different view point on that matter. One you obviously don't like but that doesn't mean its wrong or doesn't belong in here.
If for you contributing means agreeing with you then yes I am not contributing.
I admit that I didn't knew how serious the housing situation in the UK is and maybe its dark and damp in UK houses, but I am not disregarding my personal experience which really showed me multiple times life isn't all that great in the USA (not for the middleclass anyway) and one reason is, the houses fall apart after a while, a European house needs much less maintaining. I know that because americans told me.
You might disagree but you are just as much right as I am.
I called it several posts before, we have to agree to disagree but it seems you are determined to make it look like I am wrong, yet you too lack the data to do that.
So best is we end the discussion here and people reading the thread will see several opinions to the topic.
