For many Americans, especially younger people, owning a home can feel completely out of reach. But maybe the American Dream isn't dead. Maybe we just need to dream differently.
In this video, I show you three portable buildings on my property—a 14x40, a finished 10x20, and an untouched 10x16—and explain how each could become an affordable home.
I'll show you what I paid, what it takes to finish them, how inexpensive they can be to move, and why thinking smaller could give someone a path toward owning a home without spending the next 30 years paying a mortgage.
It takes research, work, and finding the right place to put one—but it CAN be done.
