Developing new building materials and construction methods

Tylor B.

Posted

All,

I'm interested in investing in a technology within the real estate space. It is very early stage. It utilizes new materials and new methods for constructing the envelope of a house in a very environmentally friendly way. 

My technical background helps me understand why it could build a great house. However, I have no construction experience. I am mostly concerned about the various permits and codes that go along with constructing a building/home. How strict are the regulations on new materials? What about regulations on new construction methods? 

Is there anything I may be missing? Is there anyone here who has experience in investing in technologies in this space?

Thanks!
