IF you are desperate to own your own home but are put off by the cost, Amazon may have the answer.
The retailer is selling a tiny house that costs just $9,3,69, and it comes with up to three bedrooms.
The tiny home could also be the perfect granny annexe or office space[/caption]
The prefab home has “everything you need in a compact, functional space”, including a “modern” kitchen, bathroom and “cozy” bedrooms.
It also has an open-plan design, which means you can socialise easily with any guests.
According to the listing, the “luxury” tiny home boasts large glass windows and full-height glass sliding doors, which allows sunlight to stream into your home.
It also allows you to enjoy views of nature right from your bed or sofa.
Thankfully there’s no need to apply for a mortgage or go to real estate viewings with this home and you can move right in.
Not only is it cheaper than the average house price in the US, which in 2024 was around $402,500, but you will also save on bills.
The description explains: “Built with high-quality insulation and steel frame, the home stays comfortable in any weather, reducing energy costs while maintaining style and comfort.”
Both the interior and the exterior of the home is fully customizable to suit your needs.
It states: “You can customize the details such as floor, window, terrace, roof, door, as well as the number and layout of rooms.”
It is also said to be “durable and low maintenance”, with long-term use in mind.
While it is set up for you to use as a mini home, you could use the home as a granny annexe or a tiny office if you need extra living space.
Or you could even rent it out for some extra cash as side hustle.
