GETTING on the property ladder can be extremely tough, but Amazon could have the answer.
The retailer is selling a two-bedroom tiny home for just $9,035 – and it comes with a fully equipped kitchen.
The ‘off-grid’, prefab home has a modern look and is said to be ideal for “sustainable living.”
You can design the exact configuration of the tiny home so it is customized to suit your needs – whether you want to live in your home or use it for other purposes.
The listing states that it could also be used as a guest house or office space if you require extra room.
The Amazon description reads: “Whether you’re seeking a permanent residence, a vacation getaway, or an off-grid retreat, this tiny home provides a versatile and affordable housing solution.”
Thankfully it also comes with numerous amenities.
These include a “complete kitchen setup and a full bathroom, ensuring all essential amenities are at your disposal.”
The home is also said to be “durable” and is made from weather-resistant materials so you can have a “safe and comfortable living environment in any climate.”
QUICK DELIVERY
You won’t have to wait long for your delivery to arrive either.
Orders are processed within a few business days, with the home arriving this month.
While $9,035 is not cheap, it could be a way of getting on the property ladder.
Alternatively, you could use the home to rent out for some extra cash as a side hustle.
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.
