Container home

Tiny homes are exactly what they sound like: tiny. They tend to be under 600 square feet. In addition to a smaller price tag to purchase one, you’ll save in a range of other areas — less space to furnish, heat and cool, for example. These aren’t as common as other types of homes, so you might consider building a tiny home. Some tiny homes might also fall into the mobile home classification, simply because they are built on wheels. They’re more affordable, which makes them a consideration for a lot of first-time homebuyers on tight budgets, particularly as other homes have soared in value in recent years. Container homes, while usually similarly tiny, are built from disused metal shipping containers.
