What if you could find the house of your dreams without even need to spend too much money to buy it?
Container homes can be an excellent alternative to traditional housing for a number of reasons. If you are struggling to find affordable housing, are interested in taking the plunge into tiny house living, or you are needing a flexible housing option, container living may be the solution you are looking for!
Due to their convenient size, shipping containers are well-suited for use in houses and their appeal lies in their apparent simplicity: you get a room delivered in one piece, and you can stack them together to make multiple rooms or join them up to make larger rooms.
But of course, things are never so simple, and using shipping containers to make a house is still fraught with challenges - particularly as the idea is still relatively new, so there are few people with the expertise required to build one without a hitch.
That’s why this book was created: to give you EVERY information that you could need while designing and constructing your new home.
But let’s take a look inside of the chapters and what you are going to learn by reading this book:
• Why You Should Turn a Shipping Contained Into a Home and the Pros & Cons of this Kind of Property
