You may have seen some interesting looking structures being built in rural areas of the region.
Roxanne Frick is the rural housing officer for Farm Credit Services of America in the Sioux Falls, Mitchell and Yankton areas and says they are financing more “shouses.”…….
That combination shop and house, or “shouse” can often fit more easily under county zoning ordinances.
Frick says they see folks moving to the country building those new living quarters….
Frick says it can often be cheaper to build one large structure rather than a house and outbuilding….
Frick says most are based on metal buildings, then customized for living and storage spaces.
