YOU may think that buying a house is unachievable in the short term.
However, Amazon is selling a “luxury” tiny home that costs just $11,059 – and it comes with a fully equipped kitchen.

The online retailer has listed the prefab home to be available at the click of a button, without the need for mortgage approval.
The description reads: “Designed to provide maximum value for your money, our modular layout mini container house eliminates many of the high costs associated with conventional building.”
While it could be used as a primary dwelling – with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living space – you could use it as additional space for a house.
The listing suggests that alongside use as a permanent residence, it could be ideal for a “vacation getaway, a guest house, a home office.”
The listing states: “Its adaptability makes it a smart investment for any lifestyle.”
It also comes with a decent sized porch area for enjoying the sun with a drink.
After purchasing the house, it won’t take long until you can move in due to its “rapid Installation.”
It states: “With pre-fabricated components, it can be assembled on – site in a fraction of the time compared to traditional construction, allowing you to move in or start using the space quickly.”
The estimated delivery time for the home is less than one month, meaning it could be used over the summer.
While it could provide an affordable way to own a house – you could even rent it out as a side hustle if you need some extra cash.
You can also customize the tiny home to suit your exact preferences.
This includes choosing from a variety of layouts, finishes, and fixtures to create your dream set-up.
You can also choose between a 20ft or a 40ft layout that includes up to three bedrooms.
The steel structure can resist various adverse weather conditions, including “rainstorms”, “strong winds” and “major snow.”

BOOMING MARKET
Tiny homes have boomed in popularity in the United States over the past decade, mainly down to affordability and sustainability reasons, and the desire for minimalist living.
They offer a path to homeownership for those unable to afford larger properties or who wish to avoid debt.
Millennials and Generation X are the primary adopters of tiny homes, with the majority of tiny home dwellers being between 30 and 50 years old.
The tiny home market has grown over the past decade, and is projected to reach $23.7 billion by 2026.

What is a tiny home?
Technically, a tiny home is any house measuring under 400 square feet.
Many tiny homes are built on trailers so they can be towed anywhere, and some are converted from old school buses or vans.
Each state has its own rules about tiny homes, but, generally, they are not subject to the same taxes as regular homes.
However, Alaska, Iowa, Louisiana, North Dakota, New Jersey, New York, Wisconsin, and West Virginia have made tiny homes illegal as permanent dwellings.
