Interest is rising and awareness is rising in building or buying dome homes since many have survived unscathed through both hurricanes and tornados.   One realtor was so impressed he offered to buy a lady’s dome home and she said “I won’t sell it, the feeling of security is incredible”. 

Dome homes are very energy-efficient, due to its round, aerodynamic shape, and it is also this feature that gives it’s success rate during natural disasters.   They can be purchased in “Kits” and range in cost, the basic frame starts at around $5,000 and the full kit, including siding, ranges more toward $75,000.
