      Be proud of yourself!! I didn't buy my own 1st home until I was 50!!! I feel somewhat luckier than others, because I paid all cash, so I don't have a mortgage!! Real estate ownership is such an amazing and satisfying thing, that I have bought 2 other, as rental properties!

      I bought my first house when i was 23. i wish i would've paid cash and built a tiny home or purchased one of those pull trailer camper RV things and just saved up until i could pay cash. i mean i've only had my house a year and my mortgage isn't bad, like $1,200.00 a month after i just refinanced down to a 2% interest rate. but still, it would've been nice to save up for 4 or 5 years and just pay cash for a house.

      Actually, the deal is much better than 20k I think. The 20k includes everything inside too so I bet the cost for this build is less than 10k. No idea all the real costs though, how much for the trenching? How much for the septic? Either way, this is a wonderful place.

Both are considerate, conscientious and kind when speaking with each other. It’s nice to see a couple treating their partners as equals, not interrupting one another. They’re quick to give credit and compliment each other, it shows how fond and how much respect they have for their partner. In a world of me-me-me, it’s especially refreshing to see.

I was a realtor broker aid. Alaskans were last of the free land to develop. If you get land now you have to pay for it and you still have to pull permits to build amd improve.

    One of the best and practical container houses , saying this watching tons of these videos. Really liked the layout with bedroom on the same level, the interiors and out doors spaces on both sides. Cool and matured couple at such an young age. Best wishes to them for a great future ahead.

    Best thing about it, no freaking neighbors next door on both sides or across the street. No noise, smells, dumpy dirty homes next to you. No smoke, no drama. No neighbor problems. A great life. Clean fresh air, clean fresh scenery. Your neighbors are the natural critters, animals, birds and nature. Love the barn door. Good luck to you both.

    I'm watching as many of these videos as I can, collecting ideas that will fit my own tiny house goals. One thing I love about tiny houses and the people who build/inhabit them is that there really does seem to be so much room for personalization and adaption to fit the needs of the owners. I especially love stories about people who own the land where their homes are located, because for me, one of the primary reasons to go tiny is to be independent, and how on earth would it serve that purpose to build a lovely tiny home and then have to rent a place to park it? If I wanted to be at the mercy of a landlord, I'd rent an apartment. If I decide to skip buying land, it will be as a full-on nomad, with a customized RV or skoolie. No leases for me. Not ever again.

    My goodness! Most tiny homes I've seen I do not like, especially the ones that are more long than they are wide, but this one is just so perfect, so simple yet it just really really works. It is very pleasant to my eyes. I think it is the big porch and big carport that balances it out. Somehow that lime green color it's painted adds to it. It is also perched at the most perfect spot. The interior does not have that cluttered look like most tiny homes I've seen, yet it holds much. How does one achieve such a balance? Amazing.

    This was probably one of my favorite videos of Tiny homes content honestly... What's so cool about these tiny homes is that if you end up needing more room you can buy another shipping container and build it onto your main home,so if they do decide that that was t children in a few years or so then that's all they would have to do AND it would STILL be cheaper than either buying a "normal" house or moving into a bigger one!! I just love the idea of shipping container homes,I would love to have the money to build one and be able to afford living during the time it takes to build them,unfortunately my hubby is the only one working right now and times getting tough again,with has prices skyrocketing along with food and other necessities SMH it's been really hard to save much.. We even had to go into our savings and use some of it, it's just so disappointing.. Rent alone is $1,200 and then there's water/electric,internet,2cell phones, car insurance,1 cat and 1 dog that we spoil,plus ourselves and whatever we might need ya know? Anyways sorry I just said more than I needed to LOL I'm really just pointing out the fact that if I didn't have the obligation of paying all of these bills and I could just save all of the money my husband makes that we surely COULD afford to buy & build a shipping container into a home,especially if my hubby and I did like this couple did to save money.. And I am a firm believer in "if it doesn't get used then you don't need it" having things that do not serve a purpose,to me is basically hoarding... BEAUTIFUL HOME guys☺💋🧡
