Frequently Asked Questions

There are many preconceived notions about modular housing. We are here to dispel some of the myths with facts and answer some of the questions that we often hear. Here is where you can find a lot of the answers to questions that we hear most often and get the facts about container homes.

Myth: "They're too small!"

Fact: Our tiny home models are surprisingly spacious. If you still need more space, we can capitalize on the flexibility of building modularly. The end result can be a traditional sized home, or bigger, that is far superior in quality and construction. By building your home with containers you can have it faster, stronger and for less money!

Myth: "I won't be able to get mortgage!"

Fact: Uh, yes you will. We have plenty of loan solutions, ready to finance your home. So, yes, you can get a mortgage.

Myth: "There is no way I can get it permitted!"

Fact: False. All of our modular homes used approved building material both in the International Building Codes and International Commercial Codes. In areas where you need permits to build, it is the same process to build a modular home. Everything we build, is built to code, whether we need permits or not.

Question: "What sizes to they come in?"

Answer: They start as little as 160 square feet utilizing a 20' shipping container. Or, our smallest Vivabox model is 200 square feet. However, we have designs that go all the way up to 2400 square feet and our use of outdoor space makes them feel way bigger than they measure.

Myth: "It is so different from a traditional home! My friends won't like it!"
