Can I construct a pre manufactured steel home in Los Angeles?

Question

I am talking about steel house kits that are utilizing bolt together red iron framing.

Answer 1

i'm building a steel house now in california... it's not a kit.. it is fully custom.

go to the building dept for your area with the drawings and calculations for the building you want to construct and talk to them about the specifics.

Firstly, you should know what part of LA you want to move to. LA is a big city and I definitely advise you to get a car. Best, safe places would be West LA and some parts in North LA. Here in West LA, it very expensive. I live in a family home even though it was expensive and my parents are doctors+lawyers. Try Calabasas or check out some safe, affordable places online! Secondly, find somewhere to live. A cheap apartment, condo, studio, whatever is affordable and suits your liking. Rent is high so be prepared to find some good jobs. That brings me onto my third point. Find a job. Can't live in LA alone if you don't have a job! Fast food restaurant jobs are already taken. But maybe you could try working in a grocery shop or find a job that can help you pay with your rent. Friendly tips: Don't go out alone at night (although I'm sure you're smart enough to know that) because LA is a dangerous place. Make sure you have a car or else you can't go anywhere at all. Traffic in LA is awful so be prepared. Be aware of gangs, the homeless, the mentally unstable etc. Maybe you could live with a friend or someone you know well who also wants to live there. This makes it easier for you to pay rent for an apartment. You both can get jobs and pay off the rent easier! Good luck in LA! Without bad pollution and gangs, its actually a nice place to live!

I have two links for you. I've recently been considering this and would have sent you more info if you allowed e mail. One return e mail I got describes the process, even to details and pricing. Contact me by e mail here if you wish the copies.
