Last I checked you could get a 20 ft container for what, 6 grand? That's 160 sq ft. And you need a foundation. And to frame inside for insulation. If you go Amish style without mains power you could finish out a kacynziski sized studio for under 20k.

800-20k is a pretty tidy profit margin for someone with connections. I think the bid was for a hundred of them.
