Parents buy 2 CONTAINER HOMES for teen daughters to live in backyard

- Опубліковано 4 сер 2024
- Matt and his partner, Linda, moved in together but didn't have enough space for each of their teen daughters to have a private bedroom. So, they decided to buy two container homes to act as backyard tiny homes for their girls. This gave the girls the privacy they craved, while keeping them close to home. In the future, Matt and Linda may use these container homes for their aging parents.

Wow, the dad is a thoughtful and considerate man to bless his kids with their own tiny homes, and making provisions for both his parents and his wife’s parents if and when the need arises as they age.
Yeah... by making sure he will be getting grandkids 😂😂😂.
For sure the daughters will let their boyfriends slip in, in the middle of the night
@@accesspoint6917 Hey, thats the daughters' choice if they want to go ahead and be idiots and get knocked up. If they are smart they will at least use protection or better still, not let their boyfriends in. Of course if dad is smart he'd have installed motion activated cameras outside to watch for 'intruders.'
@@accesspoint6917 youre creepy
Girls don't just live on boyfriends and this dad is one to be proud of. 💜🙏🏻
lovely people
Such a lovely idea....lucky girls. And when the girls leave home it can be used to house the grandparents...it's a win win situation🙂....love the hair, Jenna x
Yes. Container house so beautifully furnished, affordable and with a simple and unique interiors. One can comfortably be on this comfort zone without any displacement and strandedness from shelter. Though it can be temporal but better to be living happily here than having none😊🙏. Nice one
No concern for the (now) grown ass kids not knowing shit about how to be independent.!
I mean yeah, lovely idea for people with disposable income but who can afford something like this in Bidens economy. Maybe the government will start handing out container homes for everyone. Everything will be just fine.
Cycle of life.
@Isabella Ingram it was for two daughters and the boy is a friend who need somewhere to stay
dad clearly loves his family! His daughter saying she doesn’t want to be w/out her dad was sweet. Betting she decides to live near when has her own family
Ewww familial proximity.
Nothing wrong with that unless the parents aren't worth living close to. Then that just means you are a masochist
@@Man0War_Loki I know it’s a short u tube video but seemed like a close but healthy family. Be great if more healthy families stayed closer
Good job, now you will never get rid of them. I guess it's better than having them live in your basement.
I’m in my late twenties and planning to build a tiny house in my mother’s backyard. Rent and house prices in my city are just insane so this is the best option for me to get my own place :)
EDIT: ok, I get the feeling some people aren’t really reading what I wrote and projecting their own interpretation onto what I said. So I’m going to put it up here for everyone to see.
MY MOTHER was the one who suggested I get a tiny house in her backyard. I will be paying for the whole thing MYSELF. The average house price in my State of NSW is $1.4 million. I’m still saving hard, but this tiny house will be moveable anywhere I go, and will cost around the $100k mark.
Hope that clears a few things up
Agreeable I wish I could build in my mother’s backyard
Omg same. We should document the process and give updates
@@lubby6834 sounds fun!
Thats lazy using ur mom like that instead of being an adult and paying ur own rent so entitled and spoiled brat of u
@@Witch_hour333 ok boomer
This is a wonderful idea. Family should live together but with their own privacies and spaces to grow. This keeps relations healthy.
Good thoughts
That's what bedrooms are for. This is not "living together". This is avoiding each other.
Well when your family is living together but have no privacy if the kids are grown up and married, how is that any good?
Home ownership is off the charts this generation so it's worthwhile to look at all the options, as well as affording to live on your own isn't always possible unless you have a job that earns you 3-5 times more than the minimum wage.
Why I say 3x or more, is because of income taxes depending on where you live. The more money you make the more is taxed, hence 'less' given in return for your own spending.
Here in Canada, they imposed a 50% taxation if you go over the 40 hour per week limit, which hampers people wishing to earn more, and forces companies to hire more people in general. But this ends up causing a opposite effect, they hire less, and rotate people more or make them work more days for less hours.
The only choice is to aim for higher wage tiers, but that comes with it's own category of taxation, as well as responsibilities and hardship depending on the job category.
The alternative to budgeting through all this, is lowering expenses, which could be stressful if you aren't used to it, to squeeze out the efficiency of your dollar per month when you live on your own.
@@eltorpedo67 this is her boyfirends not getting shot by dad
If I had the resources, I'd totally do this too. Very cool they can afford to set up their children like this
Yes, very fortunate to have the space and resources to do this! Very fun to watch! God Bless
You can too. All you need is vision and will.
@@DJRenee and money
@@DJRenee No all you need is money. Contrary to what Bernie tells you, nothing is free, and never will be. Vision and will are meaningless without money.
@@chrisgullett4332 Bernie never said anything was or would be "free".
How generous is this couple. Thinking about the future for both sets of grandparent's well being, if they wish it.
And right now, keeps the kids happy and safe.
I so love how they did the side by side tour of the two kids because it shows the different ways different personalities can both successfully live in the same space
Exactly how it should be done for elderly parents
My husband and i plan to put something like this for my mom when she decides to live close to us
Exactly…so sad when they stick them in a nursing home
Or, instead of all this work and expenses... have your elderly live in the same house as you?
That's how it is in my culture. Everyone lives under one roof, from grandkids to grandparents, and we try to give all a private bedroom. But everything else is shared like the kitchen, living room, etc.
Ever seen the house in Encanto? It's exactly like that.
@@_Just_Another_Guy depends on the person. Not everyone will like the arrangement as you mentioned. It is also prevalent in my culture for elderly parents to live in the same house as their children, but we are not like that. My mom will be more comfortable knowing she has a whole space to herself, not just a bedroom. She would want a place where she can freely move around, from bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living room -even if it is tiny.
@@veabruhilda exactly that's why my mom threw out our grandma she was suck a burden anyway 😃💅
Awesome idea! When the kids move out and the aging parents decide not to move in, they can choose to rent them out. If they ever decide to sell their property, they can also take the container homes or leave them as a great selling feature. Either way, they have great options. Also, flushable toilets for the win!
Would love to see what zoning and all the school, city, and other tax bases have to say. These are feel good stories. Now imagine they live next to you and kids have 3 pit bulls and non stop parties.
@@shade38211 didn't think of that. Those taxes will be crazy. But if he can afford 70k on shipping containers. He should be able to swing those taxes.
@@kevikev214 There is a reason everyone wants to move into Suburbs. Get away from arguments and stress of others. These properties are zoned as residential 1 family lots. Humans do not like change. When these kids grow ,they will have significant others move in and raise kids or move out. If they move out these owners will try to rent and now multiple families on sewer,water,trash,parking, electric,and cable. Where the neighbors have to pay a premium service charge on those amenities. Now those fees and taxes are bypassed. Neighbors properties will drop in value. Would love to see update on this. City and code enforcement probably called daily. Your neighbors will always report anything you are trying to get away with.
That's a great idea! In my culture it's actually the norm for young adults to have a small home that's connected to or on the property of their parents' place. The multi-generational set up is so underrated
I like how the boy's house is more organized compared to the girl. But overall, I like the idea. The dad is so loving plus the idea of sustainability living is chef's kiss.
Girls always have more stuff than boys and boy stated it’s temporary. Awesome setup for young adults living at home.
Tbh girls are not as organized cause we have a lot of shit ahhahha
Hahahahah i noticed too! Girl was messy!
I love shipping container homes. Wanted one for years. However I feel like so many are overpriced. 70k is a lot for 340 Sq ft.
Way overpriced
@@user-ir1lu1ei4n fuck, yeah.
Where do you even start at buying 1……?
I know that’s to much
If the shipping and installation is included in the price I could get that, you have to use big machines to install them.
That's a pretty cool idea. I would've loved something like that growing up
This a terrific idea, in this way the parents know where their daughters are, and they can be there for them in case the young women need them. If I would have had my own home with a backyard big enough, then my mother and my uncle, and even my sister and her husband would have had places like this to live.
And they also have the ultimate privacy to.
Ppp pop
I'm so proud of the parents. Very supportive to their kids. Good day ☺️
What a great Dad! Seriously! What a great man! I don’t know, If my Dad had been financially able he would have done the same. The containers look nice. What a great job you each have done to make your place uniquely your own. Excellent idea to be ready for your parents in case it’s needed
I am very close with my brothers! We thought of the exact same concept when we start living together in the future! I'm glad i found a reference for our plans. Well done!
Hello this is Matt from the video, this turned out awesome!
Do u still live there?
@@nataliefoster9318 Yes, sure do.
The price for the homes, was that for them completly finished? I mean like all the wiring and plumbing and such.
Those are really great homes!
Lucky lad! It's beautiful,perfect for what you need. I hope you have many times in your little peice of tranquillity!
Dad did good, the fact his daughter loves him and expresses that openly is an accomplishment in itself. You did good pops, now who is cutting onions damn it.
As a parent, I think this was a lovely brilliant idea. ❤️❤️❤️
Wow! Their dad is awesome for coming up with this idea. They are so blessed, so is their friend.
indeed great dad
Bravo sir!!👏🏾
This is such a wonderful idea. Hopefully this can encourage other families who can afford to do this to try it. It’s less than a traditional home without all the other responsibilities. I love that the daughter’s are using it now and it will be used for their parents later!! Love this idea!!🙏🏾❤️
This father really loves his daughters. Awesome 💗
What a great dad! Wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing
What an incredible family! Thinking of their children and parents!
My mom did the same things for me she made a storage room a house for us in her back yard and tbh it was beautiful and perfect
❤️❤️❤️
Perfect place for the boyfriend
@@fernandohernandezjr5696 nope my focus was my studies, myself and work and I never invited anyone to my parents home not because I couldn’t but because it was my comfort zone
That's so nice.I especially like the walk in closets.You don't see that too often in a tiny home.
Very smart Dad!! What an awesome idea!! Both of them are very nice & definitely enough for one person or two. ☺️
What a great idea and great plan for the future. So awesome. Congratulations, you're thinking ahead of the curve.
Such an amazing father…Hats off to you sir!
Beautiful loving family & beautiful tiny homes!!! 🤍
Thank you for spawning an idea to do for my daughter when it comes time. 🥹
I love this concept of tiny houses for family members or just extra space. Beautifully designed too.
thank you for this video. we've wanted to move to Vegas for years and do something alternative. I'm glad to see there's someone there that is container home-minded :)
The NWA poster kills me 😂 Super out of left field but I dig it 👍
Yeah I said the same thing
What a wonderful man/dad he has thought of everything, making sure kids get space and then later to bring parents/in-laws to come live there. Blessings🙏🏽💜
That's pretty cool - they're already proving to be versatile in their usage.
And you know that dude is hittin' that too, yo! Noice!
@@situated4 smh
What beautiful homes you've made. So ingenious & just awesome! Very clever💝
Smart thinking. I got tickled at Maddie at the end "It could be a walk in? If you had less stuff..." LOL Oh dear. It IS a walk in, just a whole lot full. Too cute.
What great storage. It was nice to see Ashley's already in it's next use.
You know what they say ...
any closet's a walk-in closet if you try hard enough : D
I wish I had a dad like that. They are truly blessed.
What a fantastic idea! They are beautiful .The way they did the yard just came out beautiful .I love this🤩😍
This is awesome. They have space, privacy, can visit family, have friends over, and begin to learn how live independently and how to manage their own home in the real world as well. Good learning experience. And if they decide to do community or online college to save money, they have their own space so their not missing out on the independent aspect of college. I decided to stay home for school, and I have to share a room with one of my sisters, and the only thing I regret is not being able to have my own space to start breaking of from my parents. It makes it a lot harder when you live in the same house
Very practical...especially for elders in the future...living through not seeing loved ones in care homes during lockdown was awful.
Hello Janet, hope you don't mind us being friends okay 🌹
Love this for aging parents too. Great idea!
After living in a one bedroom apartment with my mother, and her just barging in, I appreciate this dad for what he does for his daughters!
70,000$/each ? Madness
Was that price fully furnished ?
I'm doing something similar, but reversed, we turned the Az room into an apartment.(270sq') I'm moving in there and my kids are taking over the house. I'm close by and they have room to start a family.
2 ? What’s an Az room and did you have to hire a contractor to make the apartment. Thanks in advance.🙏🏾
@@Dharmarenee an Az room is a screened or partially walled porch. I had permits to build with electric and water, w/d. My brother, a contractor, helped me insulate, add windows and an ac/heat unit. I'm going electric oven/ stove.
That’s a great idea I love those Az rooms but isn’t it hot in Az here for that’s not unless your in shade. I bet you have a nice view too. It’s very kind you let your kids move in like that
Are adopting any kids 😂?
@A H no, LOL, I'm often gone for months for work I don't need 3 bedrooms, and they can take care of things here and save for whatever they want in the future. Later I'll have extra income. It's a win/win.
Love this dad! Great solutions for a large family!
Impressed with the content of your videos! Great effort in finding the most uniquely built homes!
This is amazing! This is a dream of mine! One day to have my own place and enough yard for two containers for my young adult children and then one day for my parents!!
How much does it cost to convert one
I live in Las Vegas too. This set up is really nice. If it were mine I'd have a shade structure built over them both that extend slightly in front and behind. It would make the A/C not have to work as hard during the summer.
That is really a good place to live ! Dad you had a great idea . You r a good dad to have given those to your kids . I would not mind living in one so nice.myself !
I love that they're helping out a friend too.
Again....climate, climate, climate. Perfect setup for anyone to live; kids, granny in time, etc. and enough layout for one; no problem. Great video....you're at the top of this "chosen field now"....showing videos with good speed, proper panning, sounds that are not too high/low. Good Drone work as well. I can easily see moving into one of these...in a tiny container village with some sort of "Center hub".
A "green" roof + solar panels would keep the containers even cooler & provide their energy.
finally a tiny house with a realistic (and realistically filled) wardrobe/closet LOL
It's so beautiful, affordable, unique and very simply gorgeous with no much different from brick House. Though it can be temporal but so lovely better than having none. 😊 Nice job done. Love the cute interior Decorations
Brilliant idea! You did a really nice job showcasing these. Thanks Jenna 💜🤟🏻🍀😎🇺🇸🇺🇦🕊
These are cute and functional. Great job on putting everything needed in them. Perhaps solar could help cut down on electricity too!
👍 👍 very smart idea. Love it. I want to do this for our family now. Thank you for sharing. You just got a new sub. 😎😎😎
Love it. It's great to have a dad that really cares blessings upon you
What a great idea. Like how forward thinking dad is; planning for now and later
Nice container homes. I'm all about this idea! Plan on doing something similar with my 2 soon to be college kids!
Thumbs to the great idea.🥰
Nice parents to create such lovely tiny homes for the kids! : )
I LOVE this idea! I have pondered for a long time it would be a good idea to have my kids build themselves a tiny home on my property and have their own space. I guess I wouldn’t be the first! Cool!
That boy and his sweet fur baby💖💖💖💖🐾🐾🐾🐾🐶🐶🐶👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽God bless them.
Great idea, and loving the NWA poster.
The best part..Dad is Best Friend♡
This is so smart !!! Seriously, and the thing is they don’t even have to move or look for a house there dad gave them one right at home where they belong !! Love this
Thanks for showing us your place.
Lucky 🍀 kids y’all are bless as a mug
Great way to give your older children there own space yet keep them close!
Kinda' ghetto tho, no?
I love these container houses. I also love your daughter's posters on her wall
Wow, this is my dream home! What an awesome dad!! ♡
The kids have a very cool dad.
Must be nice having everything given to you
Exactly. I don’t understand the people in these comments saying the dad is loving. The dad is indulgent and the girls probably think they’re just gonna have everything handed to them. Since when did spending $140,000 on your kids become acceptable. That’s a college education, something lots of people can’t afford.
I wish we had it but didn't. You grow up fast. No hate.
Great idea. This provides privacy and security for all 💞💞...
Absolutely fantastic. Thank you for the upload.
Your kids look happy, lucky girls. However for 70k (fully furnished) that's expensive, it would be less expensive to buy a 2 story barn (storage shed with loft), those can be converted into full spacious tiny homes for much less.
The father spend in total $140k for the two, I could have been way better in my opinion to buy a proper full sized house for them
@@matheomaguet9827 Agree 💯.
Surprised by the $60,000 cost per unfurnished container. Don't used containers cost around 3000 to 6000 dollars ? Huge mark up that's starting to say "unaffordable."
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING 70,000 A PEICE EQUAL 140,000 IN MACON GEORGIA THATS THE COST OF FOUR REAL HOUSES BAD IDEA PLUS THE DAUGHTERS KINDA ACTUALLY LOOKED DISAPPOINTED WHEN THEY WALKED IN
That's 'unfurnished', not 'unfinished'. There's plenty of work and materials involved in finishing them out, delivering, and installing.
@@jtripp505 Yeah but then you have to live in Macon Georgia.
Easy for people who have not experienced life elsewhere than their own little parts of the world to think so provincially instead of seeing the great solution this is for multiple issues.
The other posters understanding of "unfurnished" could mean no appliances or what we call fixtures in USA, i.e. just the undeveloped shell.
@@brandilhendrix YEA LOL THATS THE ONLY BAD PART SMH
AWWWW the dad seems like such a sweet guy! his daughters are lucky
When I was about 17in New Zealand my dad turned a shed into a bedroom for me & I loved it 😎
The idea that the girls could use them. I guess one moved out so then he can rent it out. If they need to use it for their parents in the future. That will give them both more privacy, plus the parents are close if need be.
This is all cool.
If you have a big backyard, container homes are a great option !
Two lovely home,s.thanks for sharing 👍🥰🥰
That’s nice little setup well use of the space and that puppy is so gorgeous
Smart idea!!!
Wonderful!! 🥰
What a sensible and loving idea.
Such a great gift to your children.
wow wish I had their building codes. We tried to put two in our huge yard one for myself for an art studio and one for my husbands work shop we were not even going to put bathrooms in them and we were not allowed to even have one.
When I was 18 I needed "a little bit more independence" too. My dad was awesome about it. He packed my stuff for me, then I went out and got a job and put myself through college multiple times. Man today's kids are such a bunch of spoiled soft puff balls.
Absolutely, I'm thinking the same. I went to college, the Navy and had no help from my parents. They had the resources but were not going to enable us to depend on them. These kids live better than people with college degrees and jobs.
Cave men were real men. They had to hunt for their food, lived in caves, and faced disease and the elements every day. Today's people are a bunch of spoiled soft puff balls.
The kids are making it a success. What a story.
SO inspiring from SUCH a lovely family!!!🙏❤🏆💪
I live in Vegas tell this guy to let me know when you put his place up for sale this is exactly what we’re looking for lol
My parents built me a tiny home on top of our double garage and it's been amazing having my own space and being close to my parents
Great video! Would’ve loved this set up when I was younger.
Lucky girls they really love their dad, well he steps up and is there for them. Good man good job.
Me encanta espero algún día tener una así hermosa. Saludos desde Puerto Rico.
Dad definitely knows how to spoil his kids! 👍🏻
We did something similar to my house. We had a long garage that we converted half of it into a little tiny home. It just doesn't have plumbing connected to it though sadly but it's still a nice place and it even has a walk in closet. I want to move out there but my grandma has dibs on it.
Very interesting dynamic. Teaching independence in your own back yard.
