What do you guys know/think about these ICF homes?
Something like this :

Most of the houses I've built using ICF and before that Eco-Block were 2 and 3 story houses but only the basement and sometimes the first floor were Eco-Block. I can't say I'm a fan of the house in the video because they have a cold seam in the concrete pours between the 1st and 2nd floor. My advise if you was looking at it is to stay away from any design that has a 2nd floor cold seam.
For years I thought they were a joke, even when we were building and selling them. I still think they are a joke when finishing one out as a house. But as a basement they are freaking awesome compared to block. If I was building for myself I wouldn't build a basement without it.

The Shop
Look what 6 sheets of 3/4” will get you!
We supply our own materials. A general contractor doesn’t know the difference between a combo and a san tee. Jobs can take two years. Not, collecting material. Clients not paying get liens .
What is it you do?
Lumber futures have come way down but that doesn’t mean prices for lumber at the store immediately drop. Not sure how long until prices start coming down- we are all waiting (which has helped)..
1/2 4x8 sheet OSB (approx price)
Jan $29
May $46
Today $42
Last week a 1/2 4x8 sheet of OSB was $35, down to $27 today.
This is at Lowes. Where you have to search the pile for a straight stud. 8’ length was around $10.60 with sales/lumber tax. It’s becoming insane
