You know, the rectangular metal boxes used to ship consumer goods around the world. Sometimes by rail, sometimes by ocean freighter.

Which gives resourceful builders, and creative investors, an alternative to traditional stick, brick and mortar construction.

Without question, I would personally consider this approach as a possible alternative to a tiny house from a kit, or a stick built cottage.
