Green homes of steel

Do you really want to go green? A green home that you assemble from a kit might be the answer.

AmeriBuilt Steel Structures in Oviedo has created 100 percent recyclable dwellings made of steel and energy-efficient materials. The homes come in a kit with a ready-to-assemble galvanized steel frame with precut holes drilled for bolts and screws. An assembly manual also is provided.

Backed by a 45-year warranty, the homes are insect-proof, hurricane- and earthquake-resistant and require virtually no maintenance.
Home buyers have a variety of color, layout and size options. For $10 to $20 per square foot, you can buy only the framework or for about $70 per square foot, you can have the heating and cooling, plumbing and electrical work included.

Keep in mind that you are responsible for the lot and building permits.
