Eventually, we'll make tiny homes as affordable as other factory-built products: car prices, if not cheaper.

How does that work, ad your main component, a shipping container, doesn't really scale much?

At thousands of units per month, we're probably off of shipping containers and onto something lighter and cheaper:)

Building a wood structure with the same size of a container would cost more than the $2,000 price of the container?
