Considering a backyard office in N Austin and wanted to get this subs opinion on a price from a local turn key company. Also welcome any suggestions/alternatives.

$35K for the smallest product appears steep, although it includes everything to finish the project. This is for the Pod 12 within the "Essentials" collection.

Background: We are expecting baby #2 and would like some additional space. Between kids and a busy job, I have no desire to DIY. I likely could, but it would take a significant amount of time I dont want to devote right now. We've also considered upgrading the home as a hole, but don't feel like we've fully outgrown it so we'd like to avoid a 'too much house' problem. I work from home 2 -3 days a week and have evening calls with teams overseas twice a week. Appreciate any input!

Malachi of https://wereoutback.com/ has done a few for folks in our neighborhood and I haven't heard anything bad about him. He also did a spot with Matt Risinger for his youtube channel and actually stopped by to check out my shed while he was building Matt's fancy storage shed.

I have a backyard pod. Love the owner and got the opportunity to speak to him frequently with a disaster of an install. Best design of the Austin based ones. Avoid Podzilla.

In reply to tlepoC You used the backyard pod company I linked?

How do you like it and what was the issue with the install?

I did. I'll add details later and link to backstory but let's just say they didn't know how to build a foundation. I think they are good overall but early days had some really bad PMs.

Overall I like it.

I've got a Kanga office in the back.

Check those out.

In reply to evan_aggie Looks great, what are the dimensions of this one? About how much all in was it?

In reply to evan_aggie $500/sf + utility hookups?

Love it?

Wishes to make it better?

It was built when we bought the house from previous owner. I saw some paperwork that led me to believe the price was 50% of what's listed now on their website for the kit.
