Like with anything a superior product will cost more. How much more though is actually pretty surprising as it's not as much as you might think. Considering the incredible upgrade in material, sustainability, longevity, savings on insurance, flame-retardant factors and more. It's seriously like comparing a tent to a garage. They are not even in the same realm, yet a log home wich is only 10-20% more expensive. so a 110,000 house would cost you 120-130 made of Cedar that will last generations.
